So you got to sleep last night, you are so lucky.
It was a quiet weekend but last night married son stopped by unexpectedly and we took them for dinner and had a wonderful evening. He is like a totally different person and I can see how happy they are. Beautiful couple.
Carol my husband's number is usually in the low 7s and this time it was 10 which he has never had. Maybe something in the air - what do you think?
We were suppose to go to Saratoga and as the it turned out we had the bad weather and I don't think it rained there at all. Go figure.
Suzanne sorry the weather didn't cooperate for you either.
Hope everyone is well.
Monday morning and they already started with their stupiness. I wonder if they hand that out for free over the weekend???
No news here. We had a nice day out with Mum yesterday in Liverpool. Took her for good walk (well we walked, she was in her wheelchair!) and then for a late lunch. She was on pretty good form - she can be very funny at times. Best thing was her trying to give me directions around the roads of Liverpool when I got a bit lost - she's got no sense of direction at the best of times, let alone since she developed dementia!
But she was so convincing "oh yes, if you carry on down there and left at the end you'll get to Duke Street"..... LOL!
I'm attending a Dementia Friends session today in Leeds. It's part of a big awareness campaign to create a more dementia friendly society as this problem is just going to get more and more widespread over the next 20 - 30 years. Scary.
Hope everybody is well.
Glad Belle let you sleep, DM.
Norma, Sounds like you had a nice evening with your son. So great when your children are happy.
Jan, And you had a nice visit with your mom. Funny about her giving directions.
Have not had very good weather here, but today looks like it may shape up nicely. Going to go for a walk shortly. Not sure if I will make it to the beach, but would be just as happy to sit on the back deck by the water. Home sometime tomorrow.
Messaged with DD1 this weekend and she said she applied for a graphic artist job at the nearby army base. That would be right up her alley, so I told her I would cross everything I could think of for luck that she gets the job! Less than two weeks until our trip to see her!!! -jill
They had a big crowd for the challenge finale. Our zone came in second.
Good morning,
Any name yet, Carol??
Nice picture Sharon. Looks like everyone is having fun. How are you getting on with you know who this summer (talking about fun).
Tescos do sound like they are falling down on the job DM. That is good consumering to vote with your feet like that. Congratulations on your new grand niece. What is she going to be called? Good for Belle for letting you sleep some.
Good luck for DD1 and the job Jill. Will the fact that she did all the security stuff already be of help? That is exactly what she wanted to do right? You must be excited to see her soon.
What a shame about the bad weather finding you out whether or not you go away Norma. I love how much you love your DIL. and great that your son is happy.
How does your mother get on on a day to day basis Jan? I can appreciate a bad sense of direction - I have one of those. I hope that you find some things of interest in the session you are going to. I am dead scared of the idea too. Is your mother happy at least?
DD got to Taipei and started work in the hospital pharmacy yesterday. She messaged that it is very interesting and it sounds like the people are nice there too. The dorms are unusual. They have 4 people in the room and the walls are lined with cupboards with the beds on top - you have to climb up a ladder to get to them but it saves on floor space. Last message said that she was finished for the day (yesterday) and off to eat dinner with the Taiwanese students. So she has company. She reported that she had been the night previously to the night market and eaten squid (good), crabs (very good), chicken beak (awful). What can one eat on a chicken beak?????? And does one have to pick it up with chopsticks????
I tried to get on the site yesterday, but I couldn't connect with the server.
The luncheon at church on Sunday was lovely. We had about 50 people. It's really a no stress event because we don't cook anything. We supply cold cuts, condiments and buns. Other church members potluck salads and desserts. We had some delicious salads and people said the desserts were very good as well.
We are heading out in two hours to go to Kingston to meet with my sister and some of our cousins. It's about a four hour drive. We will be home on Friday. I'm hoping there will be Wi-Fi at our hotel.
Good to hear you got a better sleep, Carol. I'm sure you will tell the folks at Tesco what it is that they are doing wrong. Sometimes that gets results. I hear the weather is lovely in the UK right now. True?
Sharon, it's amazing to see the number of people in the streets in your town. What's the population? It looks very festive. I have been wanting to ask as I am also curious about you know who. How's it going?
Jill, your parents' lake view is truly beautiful. This year I took some video of our lake so that I can enjoy that during the winter. Previously I only had still shots. Good luck to your DD. Safe trip home!
Ann, I like chicken feet in a Chinese barbecue sauce, but cannot imagine what there is to eat on a beak. How long will she be away? I know space is always a premium, so the sleeping arrangements make sense. Crazy autotype! It just interpreted 'know space' as a command to squish things together.
Norma, I hope things settle down at work for you. Try to keep a sense of humor about the stupid things that other people do. It's always nice to hear about happy couples. So glad for your son and his wife.
Jan, it sounds like a lovely day with your mom. Do you live close to Liverpool?
Of to make lunches for three of us and then get my clothes in order. I have lots of knitting to keep me busy in the car. I think I am on vest number 78.
Quick answer and one question.
Andy's sister is nuts. It does not bother me in any way this year. I am feeling good this year about my decision. Really good. Andy put out a personal fire between the brother and sister the other night and the sister lost her house key and woke Andy AT 1.30AM to let her in the house. The only issue and I am avoiding it being an issue is her radar on my comings and goings and who comes into my house. My car is parked on the side where the family house is or I would always use the other door. She will be here thru Christmas. Happy holiday.
We have 2000 year round residents, more or less.
Now my question is whether or not there is a site with a picture of this vest??
Mom had a little episode of dizziness when we went out to lunch yesterday. She is okay now, but said this happens once in a while--the last she can remember was in January. After talking to her a bit, I think it is low blood sugar. We ate a later lunch, and she was better once we sat a while. But we cut short some of our plans, and I drove her car the rest of the afternoon. I have come to stay with her for a number of years while my dad goes to his stamp convention, but this is the 1st year that I am worried about leaving her alone for 48 hours. My sister arrives on Thursday to take the next shift. I will stay a little later than planned today to make sure she is okay. I can stay another day if need be.
Nice pic, Sharon. Sorry you have to put up with SIL drama. Isn't that a much longer stay than usual?
Congrats for the new grand niece, DM!
Ann, Glad your DD made it safely and is already making friends and eating interesting things.
Hi to Norma & Jan!
Suzanne, Sorry you did not have great weather for the cottage. I finally got some sun yesterday. Went for a walk and then sat on the deck in the a.m. and again in the late afternoon--one of my favorite, happy places! My parents live on an inlet which leads directly to the open ocean. Dad has a motorboat, and I love going for a ride, but the weather did not cooperate while he was still home. It is partly cloudy today, so not sure if I will get any sun today before I (hopefully) leave. -jill
They sell these in the markets. How are they cooked?? (above)
Carol, the baby is adorable.
Good morning
What a cute baby picture - all dressed up in a bow. And I like the name too.
At least they took the feathers off those. If you ask me they are ducks not chickens but I don't think that they would be on my shopping list anyway. Wow till Christmas? What happened - they threw her out of home? Good for you for setting up ground rules that you feel good with. And for not being the one to have to get up at 1.30am to let her in. She must be living the high life to be coming home at such a time in the morning.
Quiet here which is great. Cw went down south yesterday and brought his son home after more than a month at the front. Tomorrow is DS's last day at work. He is supposed to give them a lecture on the importance of quality assurance/control (or something) which is what he has been doing there. And which is a bit ironic because they have not yet found someone to replace him so apparently they do not think that the role is critical. He will take in a couple of cakes and then do them a BBQ at a later date as some of them are abroad for work at the moment. They have asked him to do some auditing externally for them so I am not sure if that is going to work but could be a bit of income for him while he is studying. So he would have next week break and start the preparatory courses in the University the week after. He decided to ask them for place in the student dorms but has not had the time to call them....... Until DD gets back he could stay in her apartment but although she said that he could bed down in the living room afterwards too it is not really convenient and he does not have the apartment he rented until October.
I hope that you manage to leave your mother all right Jill. It is a worry when they start to need help but it is not clear how much. I see it with a number of my friends' parents.
Hello ladies,
I took off yesterday just because I wanted to. tuesday is really the best day for me to miss work so I did. Before you know it summer will be gone and the cold lousy weather will be here.
What is that a picture of, I can't make it out. They look like heads with eyes?????
Carol Ayden is still in contact with your side of the family? So now he has two sisters?
Sharon I guess it is going to seem like a really really long time before your sil leaves.
Be back soon.
Ann this sounds like some experience for your daughter. I admire how your family moves around and gets to see and do a lot of things. Are things quiet where you live? I finally found a reason to like an Obama move. I hear he gave more money to protect Israel's dome.
Carol that's nice. I'm glad they didn't just toss your family aside. How is everyone doing by the way. How is your neffy doing, Ayden's dad, and your bil and another son I believe.
I didn't realize that Belle goes out. We have been trying to feed the babies we see outside but it's not easy. I don't want to start leaving cans around.
Really nothing happening here. My husband has a terrible stomache this morning. I can't figure out why.
Went to the doctor last night for blood work, so overdue. BP was 130/80. I was kind of disappointed because when I went to the endo it was 120/80 and I have been doing so much more exercise lately. He took off one of those red marks (age marks?) to have tested. He said it was probably benign but wanted to be sure. Not worried.
Well I hope everyone has a good day. Almost there - thursday.
Yes DD does sound like she is having an experience. Today they went to a place called Ilan(?) and rented bikes to ride by a river then went to a market. Does not sound like she is doing a whole lot of pharmacy if you ask me but sounds like fun.
Yeah for you taking a day off Norma. Makes a change. Did you do anything nice? Bet DH was pleased.
Where would Belle pick up fleas from? Has she been saving them up from her visit to Ben's?
Ann is your daughter interested in Pharmacy. In the US they say it is an excellent career choice for a woman. I have to say I have never seen so many women pharmacists before, mostly russian.
well it was actually him asking me to take off and I figured I might as well make him happy. This way maybe he won't bother me about retiring.
A majority of the pharmacists are female around here.
Not much going on. Free bread with oil in the piazza last night followed by an oom pa pa band. Lots of polka music.
I must have been a really bad person at sometime in my life to be blessed with this extended "vacation" of the sister. Brother leaves on the 26th. Andy's sister has been living with her daughter for the past couple years and there is a lot of friction. Her son lost the house he had purchased for her and she moved in with her daughter. Life!
Hot here.
Sharon, am I reading this correctly? Your sister in law has been thrown out of her current lodging arrangement and has moved in with you - until Christmas?? Have you got a written guarantee that she'll leave then!? Ooooohhhh sounds tricky. Hope you cope ok with her there. How are your sister's family getting along?
DM, it was definitely feeling a bit chilly this morning! Lovely now though, so no - it's not Autumn yet, LOL! Congrats on your new niece.
Norma, does your husband nag at you to retire?
Ann, sounds like DD is having fun and eating some interesting things! I cannot imagine chicken beaks, feet, heads etc and in fact it is making me queasy even thinking about it... I have to scroll past that picture Sharon posted really fast, lol!
Suzanne, I live 70 miles from my mum. How was your trip to Kingston?
Jill, I hope you enjoyed your stay with your mom, and that she didn't have any more dizzy spells.
My mum gets by ok on a day to day basis. She has Homecare coming in to do her medications twice a day, but currently she is preparing her own food (well putting ready made up meals that we cook for her into the microwave). Some days she is better than others but mostly she's ok. She struggles a lot with word finding and she also has the idea that people get into her flat and take her things (mostly her CDs) because she can't find them. We usually find them eventually and we cannot convince her that nobody is getting in. We probably shouldn't even try to reason with her about it as it is all part of the condition.
Ah well, I'd better do some work. I woke early full of vim and vigour and now it's just after 9 and I feel tired and ready for bed again!
Jan, the family has a house across the street from us where she is parked. She comes every year but this year the visit will be extended. She is NOT in my house but she thinks Andy is her husband. I think family should help one another but she is triple needy. Some days he(Andy) likes it and other days he doesn't. (EX: can you change a light bulb?? I suppose you could but then you have to buy one first.) It is very hot and I am ranting, sorry.
My nephew seems to be doing fine.
Ah, Sharon, now I understand. Well thank goodness she's not IN your house. Still far too close for comfort though................ rant away.
i finally have a few moments to myself. We will soon be packing for home. This has been a lovely holiday.
www.greenacresinn.com should let you see how nice it is here. The gardens are amazing.
I will give you more details from home.
Another beautiful day is in store today. That makes one full week of nothing but pleasant weather.
We had a good trip home from Kingston. It was nice to visit with my cousins and my sister. We enjoyed a two hour boat cruise through the Thousand Islands on Wednesday. Then on Thursday we took the trolley ride called Hop On, Hop Off through the city. That means there were nine points where you could get off the trolley to view historical sites more closely and then hop back on the next trolley. We decided to take the full tour lasting 75 minutes to decide where to hop off. By the end of the 75 minutes we decided we did not want to go around again. We settled for lunch at a brewery instead.
We visited with some friends on the way home and enjoyed lunch on their beautiful deck near Lake Ontario. We were home by 6 PM.
Ann, I do not like the sound of the news today about the truce failing. Your daughter's trip sounds very interesting to me.
Sharon, I'm so glad to hear you are dealing well with you know who. It's a shame if you let her ruin your summer. Does seem that she is staying much longer than usual this year.
Carol, I hope you avoid the bad weather. Have you managed to get rid of the fleas? We saw a beautiful synagogue with a menorah in the brickwork on our tour of Kingston.
Jan, good for you for taking such good care of your mom. My friend has just returned from a trip to England and was complaining bitterly about the declining train service. I thought of you while she was talking. She says she will never drive in England again.
Norma, can you make Tuesdays off the regular part of your routine? How is your DH doing? Mine needs to get back on track in a big way.
I came home to a phone call asking me to help with a funeral today. So I'm off to the store shortly to buy the ingredients for two loaves of sandwiches and then I will be serving at the church from noon hour onward.
Hi ladies! Sorry so quiet. Playing catch up after return home, plus trying to get ready for next trip this Friday. Mom did fine on her own, but I did call her frequently. Was a relief when my sister arrived and I could pass the mental baton.
Suzanne, you are so busy, as usual! Sounds like you had a great trip to Kingston.
Jan, when my great aunt was getting older, she used to claim that people were sneaking in and taking things too. When she started to repeatedly call the police, we knew it was time to find an assisted living situation for her.
DM, our prior dog got fleas once--we were never entirely sure where they came from. But a flea bath got rid of them--they never spread beyond his body. Personally, I am trying to hold on to summer as long as I can, but I do understand what you are saying--the nights are definitely cooler.
Ann, what is the latest adventure from DD? Did DS know he would need a place to live before October, or is this something which just came up?
Norma, Hope your DH's stomach is doing better. Did you hear yet about the results of the blood work?
Sharon, I don't thinks those would be on my shopping list either? Doesn't look like there is much to eat there--maybe the brains?
Yesterday I took DD2 for her learners permit test, which she did pass. Now on to the driving lessons. After, we went to a Turkish restaurant she had been wanting me to try, which was delicious! Oh, and some shopping at Marshall's while we were waiting for it to be late enough for lunch. I got a blouse (Ralph Lauren), a sweater, capri exercise pants and some organizing containers, and DD got a pair of shorts.
DH is currently off at his Sunday motorcycle meet up. No, he is not supposed to be riding the motorcycle yet, but he has been for about a week. He has what should be his last follow up orthopedic appointment tomorrow, which was when he was supposed to get the green light, but obviously that ship has sailed.
Later DH will go visit his mom and DD2 is off to an amusement park with friends. I plan to wash the kitchen floor, with them both out of my hair. And then lots of laundry and making up baggies of dog food to freeze. While we are gone, one of DD2's friends will house and dog sit, so want to have food made up that he can just heat up and dump in the bowl.
Otherwise just can't wait to hug DD1 on Friday!!! -jill
I can hear your excitement about seeing DD1 Jill. Not long now. How long will you be away? Good call on the shopping. My DD's next adventure - she seems to be full of them. They have been all over the place and she keeps sending really great looking pictures. Tonight they went to a ghost festival. Apparently once a year there is a ghost month where ghosts who are hanging around and haven't moved on for some reason go to their families. For ghosts who have no families they cut up fruit and bake cookies and leave them out for them so they can eat and burn ghost money so that they have some cash and make a festival of it for the full moon. There was also a comic festival she went to at the weekend. She is now the only foreigner left on her program but says that she is fine with that as the others are very nice. Today she booked her ticket from Kaohsiung to Hong Kong and has planned out most of her touring once she is finished in the hospital. She will have about 4 days travelling to the south of Taiwan and then fly to Hong Kong and have a couple of days there before coming home. I am not sure quite how she came to decide on pharmacy as a degree. I know that there is a high demand for pharmacy graduates in all areas of the pharmaceutical industry - because they are known to have had a very rigorous training. She was thinking of it maybe as a way to veterinary science (here you have to have a first degree first and pharmacy is one option) but when she told her faculty that they laughed and said that they get a lot of people who want to do medicine or be a vet coming to do pharmacy and then they see that pharmacy is much the better option and stay with it. They certainly are very proud of themselves the global pharmacy community which I find very endearing but they are trying to make it global - her qualifications (if she gets them) are good for half the world and counting. So serving on a counter in a local drug store is only one option to be done to get extra money maybe. Who knew?
I was sure that I posted this morning but I guess I got side tracked. Things are a bit hectic at work.
Does Belle enjoy being out a bit? Great that your mother is feeling good in the community. The new rabbi due to come to the community DS did his barmitzvah in is also gay with a partner. He is due to start next month.
Your trip sounds great Suzanne. Are you finding your leg is up to more travelling than previously? That does look like a nice place. The gardens are beautiful.
Some days Andy likes it?? I guess he deserves it then. Good for you for haing laid down the ground rules and sticking to them Sharon. Is there any silver lining to the cloud? Does she make good cookies or something????
Took DH to the eye doctor tonight for something called OCT. He got a load of very colourful pictures as an output and the technician said that she expects to see him back. He has another test on Thursday and then will go back to his eye doctor to see what the next stage is.
Sorry about your mother Jan. When you find the CDs does she think the burglar brought them back?
Oh and my fridge is on the blink again. I HATE my fridge. The technician is supposed to come tomorrow......

-1 in a series of 4 CDs (Recorded in Rosemary's own voice)
In this powerful meditation, in her own soothing voice, Rosemary provides an answer to the many people sick and in pain who have asked, "What can I do for myself?? This meditation is a self-healing exercise that transports listeners to a place of harmony and inner peace where true spiritual healing can take place.
Over the last several years this CD has been used in homes and hospitals throughout the world, and this meditation, this journey, enables us to discover a mental, emotional, and spiritual harmony, which in turn brings about inner peace. It is this peace within, this true power, in which we find the strength to deal with whatever trials we may have to face.
Healing is first and foremost a healing of the spirit self. When we are sick or in pain, or when we are stressed, depressed, etc, our spirit, the light, or Aura which surrounds the soul, becomes dim, and the soul's energy diminishes.
Healing comes from God, that great power source which is pure light. When we tap into that source we give light and energy to the soul's Aura, and the spirit grows brighter, and a healing of the soul begins to take place. This is what true healing is about, this is what we hope to gain when listening to this meditation, "A Journey Towards Healing?.
Please note: "A Journey Towards Healing? is a re-mastered version of the "Give the Gift of Healing? tape, but, without the booklet. "Give The Gift of Healing,? is currently out of print.

Not Perfect But Yet Still Beautiful

Anyone else in love with it?
Why weren't all these songs on her albums? Half of them i like better.
Anyone else in love with it?
Why weren't all these songs on her albums? Half of them i like better.
I freakin love this song!
I think at this point I have 10+ unreleased gaga tracks I cannot live without. Second time around, no way (Hotter remix), Kaboom, No floods, and reloaded are my life....
Just played fashion.
It is rumored she will make a video for it for McQueen. God I hope she does
Ill try the others, i just havent been giving them chances because i love these, haha
I'm pretty fond of Vanity and Disco Heaven as well.
"Filthy pop" Is amazing as well
Gaga has new unreleased songs floating around? Where did you find out about this? I'm way out of the loop.
Just listened to "Fashion". It's pretty good, but I think it needs a little more work. It sounds unfinished to me. The French accent parts are my fave.
I'm not a fan of The GaGa.
Yeah, she said that if she gets enough tweets about it, she will make a video for "Fashion." I read it on her Facebook. So I tweeted her. I hope they make a video for it, it is one of my favorites. But I also cannot WAIT for the "Telephone" video which is supposed to come out March 3rd. But I did hear that it is coming out this weekend?
i also agree that gaga's unreleased music is better than her stuff on records. my personal faves from her are wonderrful, let love down, fever, and electric kiss.
Lady GaGa's debut album, "The Fame" has gone DIAMOND selling over 10,000,000 copies WORLDWIDE! This definitely calls for a celebration! CONGRATS GAGA!! Your little monsters love you...
I thought Diamond, or platinum, gold any ranking was based on country. So in America (I thought it was 13 million) I guess it is 10 million it would be certified Diamond in America.
Fuck it, sell those albums girl, will always be diamond to me.
Diamond only applies to a single country, not world-wide. In the US, Diamond certification comes with domestic sales of 10 million copies. It's not a very common occurrence and it usually takes years.
Someone asked me once how I could know that I'm gay if I've never slept with a woman. I've never shoved shards of glass into my eye, either, but I don't have to give it a shot to know that it's not for me.
Congrats to GaGa il have to buy her new album.
Congratulations, Gaga! It's an even bigger feat considering how record sales have been hurt by the internet.
This sounds like the SexyKevTaurean79 school of accounting:
"Whitney Houston sold just barely 1 million in the US and 1 million worldwide, so she went double platinum"
Celebrate! Rejoice 2nite little monsters! The album you believed in #THE FAME is officially DIAMOND CERTIFIED WORLDWIDE! 10,000,054 copies!
^^^ From her Twitter.
Congrats to QUEENGAGA!
Title may be misleading, but who else is impatient? It's been too long since she released a video and this is a big turnaround from "Bad Romance" and her other singles as this is more hip-hop/club friendly, similar to "Starstruck" off of the Fame which in my opinion deserved a video, too.
I read around that the release day would be today, the 28th, but others say a date hasn't been finalized yet.
For now, here are stills from the vid.
Why does everyone keep fucking tricking me?!?!?!
It's so freakishly weird to see them on set together. I never really saw "egotism" when it came to women, but these two divas sure give off that vibe.
I mentioned it was misleading. I gathered some stills though. I haven't been watching any television, is there a specific channel that the video will premiere on? MTV perhaps?
The video could always be posted here. Until then, let's gather some adequate information or more video stills or, I can already see this coming, queens flaming left to right it's okay I encourage that. Wherever Gaga's name appears, drama will soon follow.
According to the Haus of Gaga Facebook page, the video will premiere on her website this week.
Yeah I'm pretty much gonna go absolutely BONKERS when this premieres :O
And mama never freaked out when she heard it go BOOM!...Cuz she knew we were in the zone.
I can't wait for the video. I hope it's for the original version, I heard the remix and I did not like it.
This is definitely one of the most disgusting and horrific bits of news I've heard this year.
A bigger tragedy than Haiti.
I can't even wait.
the title is very misleading ... change it plz !
I would love to see how she tops Bad Romance. Looking at the costumes, I can't see how Telephone would be just as cryptic and mysterious as Bad Romance, but we'd just have to wait and see.
So, I'm stuck wondering how cool hippie, telephone eyepatch chef, vegas showgirl, and jail and everything is going to tie in together... god GaGa, the wait!
the video is said to be premiering on Monday March 8th
My god people. It's a music video, not the second coming.
But then, it's not like music videos these days are actually shown much... so...
No. No. I still don't get the furor.
It is supposed to be long, like Paparazzi. And I'm sure it'll premiere on her website, like Bad Romance, instead of MTV or some other place.
And now it's supposedly delayed past Monday.
Bad Romance is the 2nd most viewed Youtube video ever, so they may not be shown, but people will seek them out.
This anticipation is KILLING ME!
Ugh! A couple more days.
... Is that the Pussywagon???
It's been years since I've actually looked foward to a new music video, but Gaga's the one who's getting me back into them.
This video should be amazing!
The video will premier on Thursday at 11:30/10:30c on E! News
Source: youtube- watch?v=rATLcPI0GLo
"im working with GAGA now, and together we will accumulate so much crazy and ego, it will almost be tyra-level! EVERYBODY WILL BE LOOKING AT ME! SUCK ON THAT RIHANNA HAHAHAHA"
seriously, those two are nuts.
thats a good thing, of course.
Ok so I guess I should probably confess my extreme adoration of Lady Gaga. I've been waiting for the launch of the Telephone music video for ages now, but it's finally here
Well tonight. But still, only a few hours to go.
For those of you that haven't got a near obsessional interest in the video i'll quickly fill you in.
It's the sequel to her video for Paparazzi and has been directed by the same guy. According to various leaks the plot seems to be based around Beyonce breaking Lady Gaga out of jail. Apparently the video is influenced by Quentin Tarantino and even features the "Pussy Wagon" from Kill Bill
There have been a few photos from the filming released so far so i'll attach those as thumbnails.
Who else is excited? If you're not excited feel free to explain why. I can't wait to try and analyze it like the Paparazzi video. Her stuffs actually pretty intellectual, the VMA performance for example. But anyways if you want my opinion on anything just ask.
I'm not excited, because i have some semblance of a life. And with that life, i go to see concerts - Otep is tonight. Difference between the two? One supports the gays and gay rights, and the other IS gay, and supports gays and gay rights.
This video is not the second coming. Even if the glorious Pussy Wagon is in it. Even if it includes Beysus. The only way this video would be something to pray over, is if it gave me $50. Sometimes, art for arts' sake is impressive. Right now, with all the Gaganites talking about it all day long, it has lost appeal.
I'll see the video in the 50 or 60 threads that'll come after its' release. Well, depending on how fast you all recover from the orgasm.
Oh how silly of me :S I thought it was possible to be excited and have a life at the same time? :P
I know the videos not the second coming 'n all that, but i'm pretty confident it'll be quite epic. My main fear is it'll be a bit of anti climax : / which is sort of unavoidable given the amount of hype surrounding it.
Looks neat.
I'm excited for it :3
It really depends on the context ... were you nude?
Hey thanks for the info I really liked the Paparazzi video. It should be interesting.
Never be afraid to try something new, remember, amateurs built the Ark, professionals built the Titanic.
[QUOTE=But hey, you asked... .[/QUOTE]
yeah I know, isn't hypocrisy fun

This is just to say that I went to 3 craft-type stores that all purportedly sold beads (okay, some of them actually sold some some beads but that is not the point of this story) along with two knitting stores that were just in the neighborhood (and I only bought yarn at one of them! go me!) and was unable to find 8/0 or 6/0 or really ANYTHING USEFUL at any of these locations. Brooklyn, you have failed to meet my crafting needs! How could you?
Here is basically what I did:
View Craft Journey in a larger map
For some reason all of my tediously-placed lines have decided to become a triangle instead of staying put on the roads, but imagine that rather than traveling as the crow flies, I instead walked to all of those waypoints in a vaguely sensible manner, overshooting to the north on Smith Street because the street fair was amusing me but also with several stops to attempt to deal with the completely ludicrous heat and humidity in various ways (more successful techniques involved taking off my overshirt, braiding my hair and tying it with a bit of yarn, and breaking down and buying a hair thing with a hippo on it from a stall which I actually like quite a lot). I found a new yarn store (only 6 months old!) and it seems like a charming little place with a built-in wine/coffee bar (La Casita, for the record). There I was tempted mightily with lovely yarn that IS lace (mind-blowing) but is not yet available, so I left my email so I can go snatch something up and make something aggressively girly and ruffled with it, and then try to figure out how to wear such a thing. One thing I'd really like to do is have a yarn crawl through Brooklyn before I leave town, maybe loading my car full of knitters if the subways don't cooperate.
But the point of this post has not been reached! (Oh dear, writing notes in charts has thoroughly ingrained a habit of writing passively. "The patient has been put on mood stabilizers." "Group and individual therapy have been encouraged." This is because I can't quite bring myself to refer to myself as "the writer" in notes, which seems to be in vogue among the staff in the rotation I just finished. Guess what setting that was!) Anyway, what I sat down to write is an extensive diatribe on how I was unable to get seed beads. But, well, I actually had a rather grand time not getting seed beads. And, well, I've still got the Internet. It's right here. And it's FULL OF BEADS!
(Also note how I cleverly didn't mention all the yarn I bought at Brooklyn General. This way no one can chastise me for buying too much yarn.)

Corey Hart is hot
Baseball May 28th, 2010
Not in the good looking sense, of course.
But in the playing good at the baseball sense, he is killing it right now. (Not only that but he also pairs well with Cold Mountain Creek.) He currently has 9 homeruns in 39 games (compared with 12 in 115 last year) and is really starting to heat up at a time when the Brewers could really use him.
Nobody can be sure as to why this is. You can attribute it to his new contacts, not swinging at the outside slider, the Insanity Workout, luck, working with Dale Sveum more or the inspiration he gained from watching The Blind Side. His numbers don't tell a story of a wholly different player, so you just can't know for sure what it is.
Luckily, I have a theory. The reason for Corey Hart's improvement thus far this season is simple, Jim Edmonds is a Brewer.
Corey Hart has been considered to be one of the Brewers building blocks for years now. In the minor leagues, he was never in danger of not starting and ever since his arrival in Milwaukee the same has been true. The Brewers have simply never had another option.
In 2008 he should have been benched in September (or at least given some rest), but he wasn't. After Kapler got hurt there was no one else.
In 2009 he was given every opportunity to play until an appendix ended his season.
Now in 2010, for the first time since joining the Brewers, he had a threat to his job and he didn't like it. Read the rest of this entry »

Also in competitor that night will be the Fultz Fabrications & Speed Shop UMP DIRTcar Late Models. Call (419) 680-5606 now to make sure you have a seat for the great racing as all reserved seats sold out for last year's World of Outlaws Sprint Car event.Last year at "Ohio's Finest Racing" speedplant, Hartford, Ohio's Dale Blaney scored his first World of Outlaws win since 2004. Blaney took the lead on lap 30 when four-time World of Outlaws champion Donny Schatz got forced into the front stretch wall by a lapped machine and spun, and was hit hard by Lee Jacobs. Prior to that incident, Blaney had steadily worked his way up from his fifth starting spot and had been engaged in a tremendous battle with Jason Meyers. Once in the lead, Blaney could not shake Meyers who finished just a car length back in second.The excitement will continue this year as "The King" Steve Kinser is now behind the wheel of a Tony Stewart Racing machine along with Schatz as a teammate. Last season's winningest World of Outlaws driver Joey Saldana, piloting the Kasey Kahne Racing Budweiser #9, will be tough to beat at Attica, as will Meyers and Craig Dollansky aboard the #7 Big Game Tree Stands ride. Then throw in PA Posse drivers like Stevie Smith, Lucas Wolfe, Ed Lynch Jr. and the tough Attica weekly competitors of Byron Reed, Craig Mintz, Chris Andrews, Mark Keegan, Brock Mayes, Mike Linder and more and you have the recipe for a perfect night of excitement and fun.For more information log onto www.atticaracewaypark.com.

Bears coach Marc Trestman has Matt Forte on speed dial
BY SEAN JENSEN firstname.lastname@example.com January 31, 2013 10:29PM
Bears running back Matt Forte, injured for the last 41/2 games of the season, is planning to play in the Jan. 29 Pro Bowl in Hawaii.| Tom Cruze~Sun-Times
Updated: February 1, 2013 5:28PM
NEW ORLEANS — Bears running back Matt Forte, one of former coach Lovie Smith's staunchest supporters, is excited about what he's learned so far about his new coach.
On Thursday, Forte was in New Orleans — about 40 minutes southwest of his hometown of Slidell — for a number of appearances and interviews, and he was in an upbeat mood about the Bears' future.
Coach Marc Trestman didn't waste any time making a strong first impression, calling him the day he was hired.
''It was pretty cool to me,'' Forte told the Sun-Times. ''I'm pretty sure he was busy, but he had the heart to call me and introduce [himself], and he asked me personal questions, not just about football. He seems like a good person.''
Forte visited Halas Hall a few days ago and met with new running backs coach Skip Peete, who told him he was excited to work with him.
In doing his homework, Forte is confident he'll be a good fit in Trestman's offense, which emphasizes protecting the quarterback, highlighting the versatility of offensive skill players and attacking the defense.
''I think that's good,'' Forte said of Trestman's No. 1 priority, which is to protect Jay Cutler. ''That's important because football is a game of inches, and if he's got a clean pocket, he can make the throw and it might not get tipped, or it might be that much more on point and the receiver doesn't have to slow down.''
That, of course, isn't all.
''If he's keeping the quarterback clean,'' Forte said slyly, ''then the running game is going to be clean, too.''
Despite suspect play by the offensive line, Forte averaged a respectable 4.4 yards per carry in 2012 and finished with 1,094 rushing yards. But he had a career-low 44 receptions. That'll likely change under Trestman.
''I saw where Charlie Garner had 91 receptions,'' Forte said. ''I can receive out of the backfield. They might be a zone scheme, and I'm good with that, too.''
In 2002, when Trestman was the Oakland Raiders offensive coordinator, Garner was the starting running back and hauled in 91 catches for 941 yards and four touchdowns.
During the news conference to introduce Trestman, Bears general manager Phil Emery strongly backed Forte.
''I'm going to be frank: Matt was brought back, and I was excited about his signing because a big part of that is him as a pass receiver,'' Emery said. ''For whatever reason — whether it was protection or whether it was utilization or whether it was catching — we didn't utilize Matt or he didn't have the opportunity to be fully utilized.''
Emery then noted that tight end Kellen Davis had a ''rough year.''
The 2012 season was a challenging one for Forte, who sprained his ankle three times, though he only missed one game. After the 10-6 season, he immediately said he hoped Smith would return.
He noted he was ''attached'' to the coaching staff, particularly running backs coach Tim Spencer.
''He helped develop me,'' Forte said. ''I liked him because he expects so much out of me because he knows the type of player I am.
''He expects so much out of you that you want to go out there and play tough and play hard for a guy like that. I would recommend him to anybody.''

COLUMBUS – Secretary of State Jon Husted today announced that 7,440 new entities filed to do business in Ohio in May. This number is up from May of 2010, in which 6,682 new entities filed with the Secretary of State. So far in 2011 (January, February, March, April and May), the Secretary of State's office has assisted with 37,612 new business filings. This is also an increase from last year's 34,632 new business filings during the same time period.
"The increasing number of entrepreneurs choosing Ohio as the place to start a company serves as a reminder that our state is open for business," said Husted. "These numbers are good for Ohio's economy."
Though the most visible role of the Secretary of State is that of chief elections officer, the office is also the first stop for individuals or companies who want to file and start a business in Ohio. While recognizing these numbers can't provide a complete picture of Ohio's jobs climate, they are an important indicator of economic activity that Secretary Husted hopes will add to the discussion of how to improve the state's overall climate for business.
NOTE: New business filings are classified as forms filed with the Ohio Secretary of State that declare the formation of a business entity, including for-profit, non-profit and professional corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships, limited partnerships and limited liability partnerships. Filing as a business in Ohio does not guarantee the company will begin operations, be profitable or create jobs.

If a child is old enough to ask a question, (s)he is old enough for an answer.The answer doesn't have to be in detail or elaborate; just give the briefest response and if that isn't enough to satisfy the child (s)he will ask another question. The next question will give you a clue as to how much more to include in your next answer. Keep on answering as long as the questions continue. You will find, in fact, that if you DO make your first response long and involved, the child will generally become impatient and shut you down.
That said, my parents waited far too long for any talk. When my brother was 9, back in the early '50s, he was called into the principal's office for "making dirty signs." We were raised in a cocoon and had NO idea there were such things as the "middle finger salute," etc. and his innocent gesture (while picking his nose LOL) got him into hot water because our parents kept us ignorant. There are MANY aspects to "the talk" and some of those discussions should take place as soon as your child enters the schools system.
Now's the time. My 9 year-old daughter seemed resistent to my attempts to talk to her, but I insisted we have the talk. After we fininshed, I asked her if she had any questions. She said, "Mom, I already know about this stuff!" I asked her how she found out. She said she called ASK A NURSE!

I know I am joining the party late, but this is an interesting and informative topic. I have a 5 1/2 yr old girl and a 2 1/2 yr old boy. I had my son a month before my daughter turned 3. She eventually asked how her brother got out and we simply told her that when mommy went to the hospital the doctors helped get her brother out. Since she has gotten older she has also asked how her brother got in my belly. I feel that sort of thing is not appropriate to discuss at her age and I told her that it was something I could tell her more about when she got older. She also has seen me buy and grab feminine products and asked what they are for and I told her it was something grown woman have to use sometimes and I would explain more to her when she was older. All of these answers have appeased her for now and I fully intend to explain everything at the age I think is appropriate. When she was around 3.5 or maybe 4, I spoke to her several times (to make sure it stuck) about what "private parts" were and that any area that was a private part (covered by underwear and her "ninnies") was only to be looked at or touched by a doctor when mom or dad was present or by mom or dad during bathing, dressing, or if she says something hurts or is itchy. She has never forgotten that lesson and I am happy I taught it to her.
Recently, I made the decison to teach both of my children the "techinal terms" of their genitals. The 2 yr old was able to pronounce his just fine, my daughter...well, it is a funny word and she has trouble remembering it. She also giggles and thinks "booty" is a funny word...but she's 5. The two have them have taken countless baths together and know that boys and girls are different. I have a friend who won't even let her daughters (4 & 2) see her change her infant son's diaper b/c she is not ready to have that conversation, which I think is a bit extreme, but, as we all are, she is entitled to her own opinions and ideas on how to raise her kids.
There was a quote in a book said by a father to his daughte rwhen she asked about something sexual she overheard that really struck a chord with me. I don't have the book on hand, however it was something along the lines of "See how heavy this suitcase is that I am carrying? It is too heavy for you as you are a child. This is why I carry it for you, because it is too heavy for you. Some knowledge is the same as this suitcase. Right now it is too heavy for you, so I will carry this knowledge for you until you are big enough to carry the burden youself."
I don't believe you should judge a parent based on something you saw that you judge as wrong! Everyone was taught differently, and so all of our opinions differ when it comes to "whats right and what's wrong", jennifer. If I was "Victorian" in my views (whatever the hell that even means!) I'd be pretty offended by your comments. Just saying.. I know we all have our opinions, but I almost felt like you were degrading Christine for her choices as a parent and thats not what this community is for. Just saying. This community is designed to help others, and uplift and help.. not make her feel bad for her decisions. I have left communities for that reason. Please, please, please reread your posts before posting and think about it those comments could be misconstrewed.
Christine: I believe you should let your heart do the deciding here. Every child is different. You can't say that all 8 year olds "need the talk" because some 8 year olds have no interest in it and aren't even mature enough to handle it. Then you have some 8 year olds who are wise and more mature for their years and who could handle that type of conversation. If you feel like your children are getting curious about sex or are hearing things, then maybe it is time to have a talk with them. You are the one who knows your children best. You could also give an age apropriate discussion for now, and in a few years, give a more detailed one.
My step son is 15, and his mom lives 5 hours away and we aren't sure if hes had the talk yet. We are having it this weekend. Im pretty sure by now hes figured out that sex can make a baby.. seeing as I just had his sister a year and a half ago and hes pretty smart. Honestly though hes been pretty sheletered most of his life and Im not sure having a talk when he was 9 would have been real effective.
My mom had the talk with me at 9, but then reiterated it again in more adult terms at 14. It stuck more at 14 than 9. Just saying.

Thank you Brie, I agree.
All children mature at different rates and some are ready to discuss things earlier than others. I am proud of how I raise my children and have no regrets on talks that we have or have not have at this point in their lives. I will speak with my son very soon regarding this subject. It will be an age appropriate discussion and we will revisit it as we need to. I will encourage his questions so he can get accurate information from us and not just go on what he hears at school or on the school bus.
Christine: Sounds like a great plan I agree about not making sex seem dirty or something to be ashamed of and usually if the parents act awkward about discussing it with their children, then the children will be reluctant to come forward later on when the questions probably matter the most because they may not remember the details of your talk, but they will remember if you were uncomfortable with it and wont feel comfortable coming back to you about it.
You probably should encourage an openness to the subject, but you definitely don't want them believing everything they hear on the bus or at school.. perfect example of how bad that could go .. if you watch the Goldbergs on ABC on tuesdays. The father went to "have the talk" with his oldest son and his son was like "so, is it true you can get a girl pregnant if you french kiss after midnight?" I was literally Rolling over laughing over that, but its also true as to what we hear and believe as kids from our friends!
I hope your talk goes well

Wal-Mart and Sam's Club notified suppliers May 29 that the retail giants expect shipments to comply with Produce Traceability Initiative guidelines by Nov. 1, and produce received at distribution centers without PTI-compliant case labels will be rejected starting Jan. 1.
While that ominous message likely sent many individual companies scrambling for a solution, Wisconsin potato growers are considering a unified response.
"We're trying to set up a standard so everyone can use same technology and formatting," said Rick Kantner, director of sales and marketing for Alsum Farms & Produce Inc., Friesland, Wis. "That's what we're working on."
Kantner said he was confident Wisconsin shippers will be ready by the Nov. 1 target date.
Dana Rady, director of promotions, communication and consumer education for the Wisconsin Potato & Vegetable Growers Association, Antigo, said members met with representatives from RedLine Solutions, Santa Clara, Calif., and FoodLogiQ, Durham, N.C., in late July, and growers were expected to meet again by the end of the month to discuss moving forward with one of the suppliers.
"It would be easier and more cost effective for shippers and growers to move forward with one company," Rady said. "A lot of states have moved forward with PTI, but growers have done it on an individual basis. I haven't heard of an entire state moving forward as a team."
Rady said July 19 that the Wisconsin association was gathering additional information to help its prospective business partners refine their pitches. She said the association planned to make a decision by mid-August.
"Most vendors haven't had to come up with a quote for an entire state before," she said.
The move wouldn't be unprecedented. In 2011, Western Growers, Irvine, Calif., selected FoodLogiQ and Salinas, Calif.-based TrueTrac LLC as preferred technology solution vendors for food safety, traceability and sustainability applications. The two companies then offered price discounts to Western Growers members.
The Wisconsin Potato & Vegetable Growers Association represents about 300 growers and affiliated companies. Rady said it was likely that not all members will participate but she expected that the majority of the fresh potato suppliers will.
She said Wal-Mart's mandate is likely just the beginning.
"Wal-Mart is the driving force," she said, "but others are going to follow."
Mike Carter, chief executive officer for Rosholt, Wis.-based Bushmans' Inc., said Wisconsin suppliers are ready to move forward in a short time frame.
"If everyone works together it will reduce overlap in the investment in printers, computer systems and everything else," he said. "It makes sense to develop a system that works for everyone."

"The ice storm we recently experienced was bad and it caused our roads and highways to be extremely dangerous for travel — this was a very busy time for us," said Williams.
"We had to respond to over 30 accidents in one day and (I) would like to commend our deputies and highway patrol officers for doing such a tremendous job. With the resources that we had, I think they did a wonderful job with assisting people when they needed it," he continued.
According to Williams most of the accidents occurred during the morning hours because this is usually when people commute to work and school.
Although he praised to his deputies and other emergency officials, Supervisor Preston Billings was outraged about the number of accidents that occurred within the county.
"During the inclement weather conditions, I noticed that all of our schools were shut down but some of the businesses in the Cleveland area were conducting business as usual," said Billings.
"When the good Lord decides to put that much ice out there I am asking for citizens to please use common sense. It did not make sense for the county to have had as many accidents as we had. Most of the accidents were a result of individuals trying to get to work but it all boils down to common sense and sound judgment," he added.
Afterwards Billings expressed his gratitude to emergency officials.
"I really appreciate the amount of dedication that the sheriff's department, ambulance drivers, state troopers and those people with tow trucks who helped to save the lives of so many people that were in ditches," he continued.
Williams also announced that he recently attended an American Correctional Association Conference in Tampa, Fla.
"When I was in Tampa, the Bolivar County Correctional Facility received a compliance rating of 100 percent from the review board — now we have two 100 percent ratings," he said.
After Williams made his announcement, Warden Ora Starks presented a request to members of the board that would allow staff members to attend a mandatory Pressure Control Point Training in Parchman.
"Every year staff is required to get pressure point training and we are required to have a personal instructor onsite," said Williams.
Road Manager James Pritchett presented requests from a number of municipalities.
"The town of Duncan requests pot hole patching, street repairs and fire hydrant repairs. Rosedale request that we remove a tree and clean out a drainage ditch," said Pritchett.
"West Bolivar School District wants a load of dirt and the city of Shelby requests one load of dirt to repair holes from clean up project," he added.
He also presented minutes to board members from each municipality to ensure that they were in compliance.
Justice Court Clerk Gloria Klauder reported the county's deposits and revenues for the month of January.
"The deposit report for January is $65,652.37 and $33,858.62 — this is up from last year in January which was $20,149 and $17,003," Klauder said.
Bolivar County Engineer Project Manger Josh McPherson gave an update on some ongoing projects within the county such as the Eastgate Subdivision drainage project and the Noblin Street project.
"Ms. Coleman and I have spoken with the owner of the Eastgate property regarding the removal of the iron fence that prohibits us from beginning the project. We are trying to get an easement for the property from the owner. She had a few issues but I think that we pretty much ironed them out," he added.
McPherson announced that the county is in the process of creating a shorter route for ambulances that are in route to the Shelby Nursing and Rehabilitation Center.
Members of the board convened for executive sessions with Jamie Jacks for economic development in the city of Cleveland, possible litigation for Pritchett and Starks for personnel matters.
No decisions were announced.

IMCAS Asia 2012 / General Report
Personally I enjoyed the meeting. The team is really professional and there are a lot for us to learn.
Dr David Sau Yan WONG, Plastic Surgeon, Hong Kong.
Congratulations to you and your team for the very well organized and successful IMCAS Asia meeting in Hong Kong.
Dr Chee Leok GOH, Dermatologist, Singapore.
I enjoyed IMCAS HK very much. I was very pleased to give you my support, I think the conference was really worthwhile and exposed the Asian doctors to our ways as well as exposing us to their ideas and trends.
Dr Andy Pickett, PhD - Research, United Kingdom.
General report
It's been 6 years now since IMCAS acknowledged the fact that Asia is holding a big part of the future of aesthetic surgery and medicine, and has took action upon it.
From 2007 and the very first Asian conference held in Bangkok, to 2012 featuring 3 overseas editions, IMCAS made Asia its second pole of action where its activities keep on growing, sharing and exchanging knowledge all over this continent considered as the place to be when it comes to development and innovation.
Hong Kong attracted this year around 900 attendees on site, who report to have enjoyed both the scientific program and exhibition.
We sincerely hope that you found this experience to be both fruitful and stimulating, as our whole Scientific Committee tried its very best to draw skilled and talented surgeons, physicians and professionals in the field.
This new adventure has once again gave us the desire to keep going beyond borders.
Thank you again for your participation!

The Lucian Professorship is named after Brother Lucian Blersch, C.S.C., who was Professor of Engineering at St. Edward's from 1938 until his retirement in 1971. He died in 1986. The endowment given in his name has provided support for purchases of science equipment for students in the Natural Sciences and continues to do so. In addition, a Natural Sciences professor is designated as Lucian Professor, and receives some support from the endowment for their research endeavors. Currently, the Lucian Professor also organizes a seminar which brings a noted scientist to campus and which highlights research in an area of the Natural Sciences.
The first designated Lucian Professor was Brother Daniel Lynch, C.S.C., a prominent biologist who taught and conducted research at St. Edward's from 1954 until his retirement in 1996, and who was Professor Emeritus of Biology at the time of his death in 1997.
Allan Hook earned his B.Sc. in Biology from the University of Maine where he became enamored with insects. From Maine, Dr. Hook went to work with a specialist on solitary wasps at the University of Georgia, earning an M.Sc. in Entomology. He then went on to study under the world's foremost wasp biologist at Colorado State University focusing his doctoral research on the evolution of nest sharing in solitary wasps with field done in Australia, Big Bend and in the Lower Rio Grande Valley in Texas. He then spent three years as a Lecturer in Zoology at UT-Austin before accepting a position in Biology in St. Edward's Univers- ity in 1988. He is a fellow in the Texas Academy of Science.
Al's research focuses on the behavior and biodiversity of solitary wasps in Texas and in the Neotropics, having spent two sabbaticals working primarily in Trinidad, West Indies.
His longstanding interest in entomology has led to three species having been named for him.
The Accidental Theorist by Stacia Hernstrom
Professor of mathematics Jean McKemie works on geometric function theory during a slow moment at the farmers market in Georgetown this June.
On Thursday afternoons during the summer, St. Edward's Professor of Mathematics Jean McKemie sells tomatoes. She packs cartons of the ripe, red fruits from her Dale, Texas, farm and drives to the Georgetown farmers' market to peddle her perishable wares. Unlike many of her fellow vendors, though, McKemie relishes the slow days.
On slow days, she can concentrate on the piles of scratch paper she has brought with her to the market. "I get to a point in my work where I need some uninterrupted time," she said. "I'll sit there on the courthouse lawn and work on my problem, and that gives me a couple of hours to work."
McKemie studies geometric function theory. "Imagine you have an airplane that you're designing," she explained. "What shape should your wing surface be to minimize friction? If you don't have a particularly nice shape to work with, like an awkward airplane wing, you might apply one of the functions I study, and it transforms the entire geometry of the problem. You take the awkward geometry, transform it to the easy geometry, solve the problem and then carry your answer back."
McKemie makes her work sound simple, but the types of problems she tackles can take years to solve. Once she solves a problem, she has no idea how or when other researchers might use it. "I solve problems because they interest me," she said simply.
As a graduate student, McKemie toyed with working in a more applied field but realized that theory was what she enjoyed most. After earning a dual bachelor's degree in math and physics, she worked at a research laboratory studying underwater acoustics and earned her master's degree in mechanical engineering. "I spent a long time trying to end up in the applied world, but it just didn't fit," said McKemie, who went on to earn her doctorate in mathematics.
Teaching her students to enjoy theory is often as difficult as solving a problem. "When students get to college, they're convinced that there is a method of solution for every problem and that they just haven't taken the right course yet where a teacher is going to stand up and say, 'Here's how you do it,' " she said. "There are a huge number of questions that people don't know the answers to. There's a constant battle with research students to think, 'If I were really good I could solve this instantly.' I tell my students, 'Everybody feels like this. You've been working for two months and you can't do it. I've had this one I've been working on for four years, and I can't solve it.' A lot of my job as a teacher is cheerleading."
As the university's Lucian Blersch Professor, McKemie cheerleads out of the classroom, too. Since taking the job two years ago, she has worked with library staff to gain access to an online database of mathematics journals so that students have the best resources available. She has established research stipends with Lucian funds for students conducting summer research. Each spring, she organizes an annual symposium on campus that brings in a renowned scholar in the natural sciences.
Like Brother Daniel Lynch, CSC, the university's first Lucian professor, McKemie actively cares about her students and their education. "I think mathematicians at every level get frustrated along the way," she said. "The most rewarding part is just to see my students make progress."

I discovered another semi-related feature that is gone from the Hopper. On the 622/722 when you were watching a show if you pressed record you were presented with several options. One of which was to record until manually stopped. This is not present on the Hopper. I was watching WSOP Main Event on ESPN last night and it went hours past the allotted time. All it would allow me to do is record the current show then add time to it, which is limited to 90 minutes. I needed more than 90 minutes.
BTW, this show ended up going for TWELVE hours. Only ten hours over the scheduled time. I watched most of it later on ESPN3.com
