Greyhound racing may seem like a harmless sport, but life in the fast lane is no picnic for these overworked dogs. Every year, thousands of young and healthy Greyhounds are killed merely because they lack racing potential, are injured while racing or are no longer competitive. Life is hard for those who make the grade—they spend long hours in cramped kennels and are deprived of normal social contact and life experiences. While people are becoming more aware of the horror of this sport, there are still more than 20 tracks operating in the U.S.
What are Greyhound breeding farms?
Greyhounds begin life on a Greyhound breeding farm, where thousands of pups are born into the industry each year—of these, only a select few actually become racing dogs. This massive over-breeding is done in order to produce winning dogs. The unwanted pups, those who don't measure up to racing standards, are simply destroyed. The racing industry also sells some of the dogs considered unfit for racing to laboratories, which use them in experiments.
How are Greyhounds housed at the tracks?
Housed at commercial racetracks, the dogs spend the majority of their lives in confinement—stacked in double-decker cages in warehouse-style kennels for up to twenty or more hours per day. The cages are just large enough for the dogs to stand in. Most of the enclosures are not heated or air-conditioned, causing the short-coated dogs to suffer during severe weather temperatures. Many dogs suffer from fleas, ticks and internal parasites.
Is racing itself dangerous for Greyhounds?
As a breed, Greyhounds love to run, but they fall victim to track conditions. Each year, thousands of these dogs are seriously injured during races. Injuries include severed toes, broken legs, spinal cord paralysis, broken necks and cardiac arrest. And because so many dogs are kept in close quarters, contagious respiratory diseases can sweep through kennels, affecting both racing schedules and adoption efforts when a kennel is quarantined.
What happens to Greyhounds when they can no longer race?
While Greyhounds may live 13 or more years, they are usually 18 months to 5 years old when they are retired from racing. Many are deemed unfit to race after an injury, some have little desire to race, while others are no longer fast enough to be profitable. While some of these dogs are retired and sent to rescue groups, others are simply killed or returned to breeding facilities to serve as breeding stock.
Is Greyhound racing legal in all states?
No. Greyhound racing attendance is dwindling nationwide as more people fight to have the tracks closed and choose gambling venues that don't involve animals. As a result, states are becoming more amenable to banning dog racing, because it is a money pit: state governments often wind up having to spend more to regulate the sport than they get back in revenue. As of 2014 Greyhound racing is illegal in 39 states and tracks are operating in only seven states. Please visit the website of our friends Grey2K USA to see a map showing the legal status of dog racing in all 48 continental U.S. states.
What can I do to help?
There are many ways you can help end the Greyhound racing industry:
- Do not attend Greyhound races.
- Educate family and friends about the animal welfare problems and safety concerns related to Greyhound races.
- Consider adopting a retired greyhound and encourage people you know to do the same. Greyhounds make wonderful family pets, and adoption events are held all over. The dogs can also be found at rescues and shelters.
- Take a more active role in helping to end Greyhound racing by working with the ASPCA to pass legislation that prohibits it. Stay up-to-date about current legislation to ban Greyhound racing by joining the ASPCA Advocacy Brigade.

My uncle turned me on to swinging
I am an avid hunter. I started back when I was 13. My father didnt really care much for hunting but lucky for me we were sorrunded by lots of friends that loved to hunt. I mostly went small game hunting with my friends and their dads, and they would take me along on opening day of buck season each year. I had an uncle named Ray who lived on a farm and was a pretty big hunter himself. Him and my aunt Kayrn lived about 2 hours away from us. They didnt really farm, they just lived in a nice little farm house on a couple acres of fallow ground that bordered a state game land. When I was 18, my uncle invited me out to his place to go hunting on opening day. I got the ok from my parents to miss a couple of days of school and my father figured he could trust me out there with Ray. Ray was my mothers oldest brother and was 45, his wife kayrn was 43. They didnt have any children
and just lived out there on there own. Ray drove a dump truck for a construction company and his wife Kayrn worked at a local grocery store. My uncle Ray was a really cool guy. Since they lived so far away I really only got to see him when there was a family get together or on holidays. He always hung around with me at these events and we talked about all kinds of things, so I was really comfortable with him. His wife kayrn wasnt a bombshell or anything but she was put together nicely. She had kind of a farm girl build with average sized breasts and a nice small ass. Her and Ray used to go on all kinds of hunting and sking trips. In the summers they would go to Nags Head NC for a week and just hangout at the beach. That sunday before opening day I packed up my dads car and headed upto uncle Rays place. My mother was a little worried since the forecast was for freezing rain, but I told her I would be carefull and make sure to call when I got there. I finally got there after about 2 or 3 hours. When I walked up onto the rickety wooden porch, my uncle Ray came out to meet me at the door. Come on in kid ! I went inside and set my stuff down on the kitchen floor. I had never been to his house before so he gave me the 50 cent tour. The house was built in the 1930's but Ray did a good job of keeping it up. the kitchen was small and had a door that led to the basement which was dark and cramped. We dropped my stuff off in the basement and went back upstairs. The living room was small too, with a staircase to one side that led upstairs to two bedrooms and a bathroom. So you ready for the big hunt tomorrow? Oh yeah! You havent gotten a buck yet have you? No, but I am hoping you will fix that tomorrow. He laughed and said I am no miracle work but maybe we will get lucky. Well come on lets get something to eat. He called upstairs for aunt Kayrn to hurry up so we could get back before late. We went out to his pickup truck to wait for her. After a couple of minutes she came out all bundled up in a down jacket. I scooted over and she piled in next to me and we went to a local resturant to eat. We had a casual conversation while we were eating during which time my uncle asked me, so did your girlfriend tell you she was going to miss you? I dont have a girlfriend. Kayrn replied get out of here a good looking boy like you and no girlfriend, really? My uncle Ray then said, I guess your going to tell me that your a virgin too. My aunt snapped at him Ray, shut the fuck up dont embarrass him. My face must have turned 3 shades of red. Dont pay any attention to him honey you could probably teach him a thing or two. Then we all kind of laughed it off. We got back to the house around 10pm and my uncle said we better get some sleep we have to get up early tomorrow. He showed me to the extra room upstairs then said theres no clock but dont worry I will wake you up. If you get cold there is some extra blankets in the closet there. I stripped down to my long johns and climbed into the bed. As I layed there I noticed I could kind of see my breath, they had a coal stove in the basement for heat and it wasnt doing much for the upstairs rooms. eventually I drifted off to sleep and woke up when my uncle burst through the door early in the morning. get up sunshine lets go hunt some deer. I rolled out of bed and made my way downstairs. When I walked into the kitchen I saw Kayrn at the stove moving around a frying pan. She had a cotton gown on and some floppy slippers. I could see she had no bra or underwear on because the gown klung close to her body. Her little ass looked like that of a teenage girl and I most have been staring at it hard because my uncle snapped at me, hey we are going hunting for bucks not doe, go down and get your stuff on. My aunt Kayrn laughed and I turned and shuffled down the stairs. When I cam back up Kayrn had eggs on the table and was nursing a cup of coffee. I sat down across from my uncle Ray and grabbed a plate. Whenever I could I snuck a look at Kayrn's tits. That gown was wrapping around them perfectly and I swear I could see the brown from her nipples. Every once in a while she would catch me looking over the top of her coffee cup and just grin. After we finsihed eating Ray said ok lets get going we got alot of walking to do. We walked out the back of there property and into the game lands. The weather was shitty like forcasted freezing rain. We walked all around that forrest for about 5 hours and then we finally ended back were we started. Fuck, they aint moving in this shit. Sorry kid looks like your going to get skunked again. We walked back to the house. Just as we got there my aunt came out onto the porch. No luck? Nahh, they aint moving in this weather. I am going to take him over to Bills maybe we can stir something up over there. She yelled back, that bumb is probably sleeping. We jumped in the truck and headed over to his friends house. She was right he was sleeping. He came to the door and let us in eventually. We plopped down on the couch. Hey get your shit together lets go out and get this kid a deer. Fuck that, its raining out there. My uncle said come on we got to get this kid a buck. Well you take him out, I aint going out in this shit. While they were talking I was looking around Bills house. He was a real slob, and was definately a stoner. It was around 2 in the afternoon and he pulls out a pipe and lights it up. After he took a hit he handed it to my uncle and he took a drag off it. Then my uncle looked over at me and asked if I wanted a hit. I said no I am cool, then he passed it back to his friend. So now I am sitting there thinking great, uncle Ray aint no great white hunter he is a stoner, figures. So they sit there for about an hour and a half smoking and arguing about the weather. Finally at about 4 in the afternoon, he gives up on his friend and tells him later bro as we head out the door. Well we got about an hour of daylight left, lets just go scout a spot for tomorrow morning hows that? I said ok, but in the back of my mind I am thinking whatever. So we went out back of his friends house and walked around until dusk, then we jumped in the truck and headed back to his place. We didnt see any deer, but we must have walked all over the fucking county, I will give him credit for being a stoner in his forties and being in that good of shape. I was beat and I that point I really didnt care anymore. While we were driving back out to the road another friend of his was coming down it and he flagged him to the side. They pulled up window to window and started talking about the day. His friend said he had the same kind of luck at another spot and handed a bottle of whiskey across to Ray. Ray took a big pull then motioned it toward me. I figured fuck it why not, I took the bottle and swallowed down a good sized drink. When I titlted the bottle back down, Ray just smiled at me. We sat there and talked for a little while, took a couple of more pulls on that bottle, then we headed home. I am starving, you hungry kid? I could see that he had a buzz on and I said yeah. He looked at his dashboard clock and saw it was around 7pm. Your Aunt aint getting off for 2 hours, lets go get something to eat. We went down to the dinner again and settled in for a meal. His eyes were blood red. Shit I am sorry kid, the weather really fucked it all up. No problem theres always tomorrow right. Yeah, will get something out of those woods if we have to burn them down. I could tell he felt really bad about the way the day had gone. He kept apologize to me and I kept saying dont worry about it. When we were close to being done he said, you know what I will make this upto you, you want to get laided? Hell yeah, holly shit yes! Ok lets go. He paid the bill and we headed out. We went back down to bills house. When we got inside, We sat down and him and Bill started up another pipe. He took a couple of hits then he started asking me some questions. If I tell you something you got to swear to me that youl keep it a secret. Ok, I will. Do you know what a swinger is? Yeah, I do. Ok, well me and your aunt Karyn like to swing. I thought to myself, holly shit! Dont tell your mother or anyone you got that! Yeah, yeah uncle Ray I woulnt say a word. Then he took a drag from the pipe and looked at me and said, you want to fuck your aunt Kayrn? Bill burst into a roar, god dame Ray. He was laughing really loud. No, no man it aint like that, he is my sisters kid he aint related to here. Kayrn aint going to go for that shit! She fucked you, you fucking slob. This kid is ten times better looking then you. My head was realing now. Aunt Kayrn fucked this guy and my uncle knows it. Karyn is going to fucking kill you! Dude she would fuck him in a heartbeat. When she heard he was a virgin she got really turned on. Ok, right around then I got a serious hard on. I dont know man, I dont know. Well theres one way to find out, Ray got up and when into the next room and got on the phone. He was in there for about a half an hour. Then he came out with a big smile on his face, I told you I would hook him up! She will do it. Oh my god uncle Ray you are the man! Kid your in for the night of your life. I really put my ass out there for you so you better not fuck me over and tell anyone. I swear to god uncle Ray, I woulnt. My uncle Ray grabbed his keys and said I will be back in a little while dude, can I crash here tonight? Yeah, no problem. All the way back to the house my cock was tearing at my pants. Oh my god I am going to fuck aunt Kayrn. The whole way there my uncle kept telling me dont fuck this up kid, dont fuck it up and there will be more you understand me. Yeah, yeah uncle not a word. We got to the house and went inside, she wasnt home from work yet. Uncle Ray looked at the clock and said she will be here in about 20 minutes or so, just go upto your room and wait there. I huslted up the steps, went into the room and got undressed. I sat on the edge of the bed waiting for her to get home. I couldnt help to play with my cock while I waited for her. I started thinking about all the stuff I saw in the porn videos and was saying to myself, oh yeah I want to do that to. I wonder if she will let me fuck her in the ass? When she got there, I heard her open the door and come inside. I could here them talking but I couldnt make out everyword they said. I heard him say upstairs and i could hear her giggling as they talked. Then I heard my Uncle yell up, have a good time kid and he went out the door. About 20 minutes after he left I heard her coming up the steps. I thought to myself, fuck its about time. then I heard her go into the bathroom and the shower turn on. I smelled under my arm pits. I was covered in sweat from walking around all day. I used my shirt to wipe under my arms and around my cock. After about 15 minutes the shower turns off and she came out and was walking down the hall. When she opened the door I got a full frontal shot of her. I almost blew my load right then. Her tits were nice about handfull size with little brown nipples. Her pussy was a neat little trimmed trainagle. She looked right at me. You ready to fuck me honey? I dint reply. She walked across the room and dropped to her knees in front of me. Lets get a good look at you. She spread my legs and my cock was so hard it was curled up against my stomach. MMMM! She leaned in and ran her tongue up my balls and shaft. She stopped at the head and then pressed it into her mouth. I could feel her press her tongue inside it, then she popped it out of her mouth. MMMM, I can see you are ready to fuck me, She squeezed the head of my cock and a little bit of piss and pre-cumm came out. She rolled it onto her finger and put it in her mouth. She lowered her head below my balls and stuck her tongue in my ass. It was amazing. I saw that on video and it was as good as it looked. She licked my ass and balls until i was on the verge of erupting. She started to stroke my cock while she licked my ass. Suddenly my cock started to throb and she moved up real fast and put it in her mouth. She didnt stroke it or anything. I leaned back and started firing my load in her mouth and she just started moaning. MMMMMM, MMM HMMM. I came in her mouth until my leggs were shuttering. When I was done, she reached up and squeezed more cumm out of my cock into her mouth. Then she opened her mouth and showed it to me, then she swalloed it. Fuck this was like some crazy porn movie. Then she started slowly stroking my cock. So how do you want to fuck me baby? You been thinking about what you wanted to do? I quickly answered doggy style please. MMMM, yeah thats a good one. Then she crawled up onto the bed next to me and got on all four with her ass pointed way up in the air and her head laying down on the bed. Fuck me baby, fuck me like a dog. I got up behind her as fast as I could. Her pussy lipps were squeezed uped between her legs. She had a small little asshole right above her big pussy hole. I lined up my cock and slid it into her. MMMM, yes fuck me like a dog baby, slap my ass! I reachesd back and patted her on the ass. Harder! I did it again. Harder! then I really connected one on her ass cheek. Aghhhhh! Yes ride me baby fuck me hard! I grabbed ahold of her hipps and started plunging my cock deep in her. MMMMM, yes fuck it baby! After about 25 strokes I started to cumm again. She pushed back against me and tighten her pussy around my cock. MMMM, Ohhhh yes fill me with your cumm baby,fill my pussy. I kept pounding away at her pussy for about 20 minutes non stop as hard as I could. The whole time she was really getting excited. Finally she reached under and started palying with her pussy and she started to shake. OHHHHHH, OHHHHHH dont stop, dont stop. I didnt. I was like a wild beast slamming into her. MMMM, OHHHHHHH. Then after a couple of minutes she started to quit down. Did you like that baby? Oh hell yes! You finished now? Yes thank you so much. You dont want to fuck my ass? Yeah, yeah I do! Whatever you want baby. My cock was going a little limp now, 2 loads that fast. Give me a minute ok? She said come lay down here next to me baby. I crawled up onto the bed. She layed her head on my stomach and started to play with my cock. I layed there just rubbing her back at first, then I started to play with her tits. She slid her head down my stomach and moved my cock into her mouth. She used her tongue to play with the head of it. It was fantastic. MMM, I want you to put this fat cock in my ass baby, put it in my ass and fuck it hard. Before long I was hard again, and I slid sideways off the bed. Aunt Kayrn rolled over on her stomach and propped her ass up again. Go ahead baby, fuck my little asshole with your fat cock. You have something I can put on it? I dont need lube baby, I like it to hurt. I lined my cock up with her asshole and started to work the head into it. Aghhhh, yes shove it up there baby. Once i got the head in , it felt fantasic, like a vice squeezing my cock. I started to try and move in it more when all of a sudden she just pushed back over it and her ass swallowed my cock whole. Aghhhhhh, yes, yes, She started to work her ass over my cock. I just braced me feet and stood there as she moved back and forth over it. God it was so hot watching her asshole stretch out over my cock. She was slamming that tight little ass back into me hard screaming fuck my ass baby fuck it hard. I wasnt doing anything she was doing all of the fucking. Agian, it didnt take long for me to cumm and she loved it. Ohh yes baby, push that throbbing cock up my ass, push it all the way in. She was fucking the hell out of her ass with my cock. She kept that up until she came. She slid off my cock and layed flat on the bed. MMMMM, she said. She reached back and put her finger in her asshole and I saw all my cumm runing out. Then she brought her finger to her mouth and licked it clean. Your cumm is not salty at all baby. Is that good or bad? she just laughed and rolled over. Come on lets get some sleep. I crawled into the bed next to her and we spooned. Then I just went to sleep. We woke up with the sun coming through the window. She got up and looked out. Looks like ran again, not a good day for hunting. She turned around and smiled at me. She went and took a shower and went to her room and got dressed. I took a shower to then headed downstairs. She was wearing that gown again and I got instantly hard as soon as I saw her backside. When she turned from the stove she looked down at my cock and said I guess you will not be going hunting this morning and she squeezed my cock. Then she went over to the phone and called Ray. Yeah, yeah it was fun. Oh i think he did. Yeah, we did. Good, real good. No I think everything is going to be fine, nothing to worry about, she smiled at me. One oclock, until nine. Just a minute, are you staying the night honey. Yeah. Yeah he is. She laughed. You want to go out in this? She pulled her gown up and shook her head no. No not really. No he doesnt. She laughed and said you think? Ok I will drop him off on my way to work. Yeah I will make sure to ask him. Yeah, probably around 12:30 or so. Ok, love you to. She hung up the phone, so what else did you want to try, she said with a smile. What did uncle Ray want you to ask me? Oh, he was just wondering if it would be allright if he stayed here tonight. I didnt know what to say. He wants to join in if its ok with you. I dont do any of that gay stuff. She laughed, no no honey Ray isnt gay, he just wants to join in. She giggled. That morning Aunt Kayrn fucked my brains out and i ate pussy for the first time. Later that night I had my first threesome and i was hooked. Aunt Kayrn was such a whore that just thinking about her could make me cumm. Needless to say, I went on hunting trips to Uncle Rays each season after that one, and he even talked my mother into letting me goto Nags Head with him that summer. It turned out that they lived in a whole community of swingers up there, go figure. Needless to say i got into the lifestyle and I am still in it today. Uncle Ray and Aunt Kayrn introduced me to a couple more of there friends and lets just say that the ladies just loved breaking in the new sweet young man |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Min & Mrs. Purrkitty-URGENT!!
Facts about Min & Mrs. Purrkitty-URGENT!
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Brown Tabby
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Short
Min & Mrs. Purrkitty-URGENT!'s Info...
I am already spayed and up to date with shots.
These lovely 9 month old ladies are Min and Mrs. Purrkitty. Their brothers, Mr. Longhair and Mr. Purrkitty, also need to find a home asap.The family that rescued them loves them dearly. They were rescued from coyotes. The mother cat and one of the kittens weren't so lucky. The family of cats ran to this kind family's porch for safety and the coyotes followed them right up to the porch and the family wasn't able to fight them off before the mama cat and one of her babies were taken. Due to the husband's horrible allergies, their doctor has said the cats must go. He has to have reconstructive surgery on his nose it is so bad. They are also moving soon and the new landlord will not even let them keep their beloved pets long enough to find them homes. Please give these great cats a good home! They want to be adopted in pairs, because they've been together their entire lives and are terribly bonded.
They only have until April 1st to find a home.
If you can find it in your heart to save these sweet kitties, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com or the family directly at 770-371-2615. Ask for Anjanette.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Min & Mrs. Purrkitty-URGENT!, a Fairborn Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Fairborn, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Fairborn.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Fairborn already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Fairborn breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Fairborn paves the way for another one to be saved.

I think I was reading one time where someone said there was a free version of Paint Shop Pro that you could download from the internet. I've done a search but don't seem to find anything like that. I have PSP 7 and an pleased with it. I have a friend who would like to try PSP but she doesn't want to pay the price...is there someplace where she could download it free? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Hi maybee, There was one, but they no longer offer PSP7 now that Corel owns it. They suggest you keep trying this link as they are trying to work out something with Corel. Good luck - I got mine here and am happy with it! Maybe somebody else will come along with a better link! Elly |
Here is a link that might be useful: some free downloads

2 "I have heard many such things; miserable comforters are you all. | 2 "I have heard many things like these; miserable comforters are you all! |
3 Shall windy words have an end? Or what provokes you that you answer? | 3 Will your long-winded speeches never end? What ails you that you keep on arguing? |
4 I also could speak as you do, if you were in my place; I could join words together against you, and shake my head at you. | 4 I also could speak like you, if you were in my place; I could make fine speeches against you and shake my head at you. |
5 I could strengthen you with my mouth, and the solace of my lips would assuage your pain. | 5 But my mouth would encourage you; comfort from my lips would bring you relief. |
6 "If I speak, my pain is not assuaged, and if I forbear, how much of it leaves me? | 6 "Yet if I speak, my pain is not relieved; and if I refrain, it does not go away. |
7 Surely now God has worn me out; he has made desolate all my company. | 7 Surely, O God, you have worn me out; you have devastated my entire household. |
8 And he has shriveled me up, which is a witness against me; and my leanness has risen up against me, it testifies to my face. | 8 You have bound me--and it has become a witness; my gauntness rises up and testifies against me. |
9 He has torn me in his wrath, and hated me; he has gnashed his teeth at me; my adversary sharpens his eyes against me. | 9 God assails me and tears me in his anger and gnashes his teeth at me; my opponent fastens on me his piercing eyes. |
10 Men have gaped at me with their mouth, they have struck me insolently upon the cheek, they mass themselves together against me. | 10 Men open their mouths to jeer at me; they strike my cheek in scorn and unite together against me. |
11 God gives me up to the ungodly, and casts me into the hands of the wicked. | 11 God has turned me over to evil men and thrown me into the clutches of the wicked. |
12 I was at ease, and he broke me asunder; he seized me by the neck and dashed me to pieces; he set me up as his target, | 12 All was well with me, but he shattered me; he seized me by the neck and crushed me. He has made me his target; |
13 his archers surround me. He slashes open my kidneys, and does not spare; he pours out my gall on the ground. | 13 his archers surround me. Without pity, he pierces my kidneys and spills my gall on the ground. |
14 He breaks me with breach upon breach; he runs upon me like a warrior. | 14 Again and again he bursts upon me; he rushes at me like a warrior. |
15 I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and have laid my strength in the dust. | 15 "I have sewed sackcloth over my skin and buried my brow in the dust. |
16 My face is red with weeping, and on my eyelids is deep darkness; | 16 My face is red with weeping, deep shadows ring my eyes; |
17 although there is no violence in my hands, and my prayer is pure. | 17 yet my hands have been free of violence and my prayer is pure. |

As far as I know you can not get packages sent to your resort
WDWRadio Moderator
When we go in October, we are staying at the Buena Vista Palace on the edge of DTD.
This too is an 'Official Disney Hotel' on Disney property. As far as I have been told, there is complementry buses running to the parks - but I am not sure about sending packages and gifts back to the hotel.

Insider Trader: Selling arrows in singles for the price of a stack scam {WoW}
May 18th 2010 3:09AM Also you know what else?
If people stop for 2 seconds and check that it's a stack, not a single, they'll all go away.
Ever think of that? Ever think of using some common sense AND JUST NOT BUYING INDIVIDUAL ARROWS.
Fuck me dead some people are stupid. If you don't buy their silly single items, they won't keep re-listing them trying to earn a quick buck.
The only thing keeping them from going with this silly AH tactic is that people ARE stupid enough to keep clicking buy out.

Drupal at Pfizer
by jwhatcott Whatcott
Last week at the Enterprise 2.0 Conference they had a general session that included presentations by several large organizations applying Web 2.0 approaches to internal team social publishing. One of these was given by Simon Revell of Pfizer.
It's great indeed. Pfizer has been using Drupal for a while. I believe the folks at WorkHabit built the site for them about 2 years ago.
I continue to believe that Enterprise 2.0 is a dormant opportunity for Drupal. It seems to be just off the radar screen for most Drupal solution providers and customers, most of whom seem to use Drupal more often for external facing sites. But the building blocks are there, and I would like to see us do more in this area over time. Why let Sharepoint have all the fun?
Be careful now.. it sounds like you are picking up on my argument that you trashed a few months ago... :)
In a former life, I was an open source evangelist within Pfizer Global R&D. My managers somewhat begrudgingly supported my affinity for PHP, Perl and MySQL. Although this technology went against the culture of big, expensive and difficult-to-implement, my clients were certainly happy; they got extensible solutions that were damn cheap to implement and support.
There was a certain "maverick" element in Corporate IT that provided me with the infrastructure I needed to roll out Drupal in 2004. Despite some gnashing of teeth, Drupal eventually became a tolerated (though not necessarily "blessed") platform within Pfizer. I personally launched internal Drupal-based sites for many groups within R&D and worked on projects that brought Drupal to Corporate.
Even the new CEO had a Drupal-based "blog" for a time.
Pfizer maverick IT element checking in...
Joe Yaker (above) had me host Drupal to support his work with departmental web sites. Somewhere along the line I was asked if I knew of anyone that could put up a blog site. Well, duh.
I put up about 100 internal Drupal blog sites during 2005-2007; about 20% still have traffic in the range of 100-1000 unique visitors/month. As Simon mentioned, Pfizer is pretty much focused on Sharepoint, so the future is uncertain.
Dries' Workhabit (fine folks, all) comment above refered to a project where I put together a custom site as a moderated/real-time web chat capable of handling 100K concurrent users. My customer wanted some warm fuzzies from an outside expert's casting of an eye upon what we had done to support the high volume requirement.

Bon Appétit is the University's current food provider and, as a strategic business partner, recommended for any catered function or affair. Bon appétit offers a full range of catering services and arrangements can be made by calling 216.368.4548 (fax 216.368.1866). For those authorized, the services of Bon Appétit may be purchased by providing the catering office with a CWRU departmental speedtype against which to charge the event.
This list is intended to be exclusve for events $500.00 and more,and for events less the $500.00 to serve as a tool for use by the campus community. It is left to individual clients to determine the appropriateness of caterers for specific events, and to assess the value of their product and service. Caterers who we consider outside are those who use their own staff, utensils, and serves on University property. Those who appear on the list meet the following criteria:
The CWRU campus remains open to the use of outside caterers under $500. Events $500 or more must use the preferred caterers with the following restrictions:
In all other campus facilities, the client may choose to use the services of our on-campus or off-campus preferred caterers. The University has placed a restriction on events at or over $500.00. A preferred caterer must be chosen from the preferred catering vendor list. A Peoplesoft E-Procurement requisition must be created prior to the event.
Event planners must obtain price reasonableness in the form of two quotes for all events between $10,000 and $25,000. Three written competitive bids are required on events $25,000 or more. You must create a Peoplesoft E-Procurement Requisition prior to the event and a purchase order will be issued. Failure to do so will result , at a minimum, in a delayed payment to the vendor.
All catered events of $500 or more require a requisition which must be processed and the PO# issued prior to the event. After the fact requisitions may result in significant delay in payment and other penalties.
If your catering order is less than $500, and the even is on campus, you may use a departmental D-card. Off campus, a CWRU T&E Card or individual credit card can be used. A PeopleSoft E-Procurement requisition can only be used if the vendor is on the preferred catering list. Bon Appétit will continue to journal all events. However, any Bon Appétit event of $5000 or more will require the approval of the requestor's supervisor.

AHMEDABAD: The Shree Bruhad Gujarat Sanskrit Parishad, situated in Ahmedabad, which is engaged in dissemination of Sanskrit language and its education in Gujarat, will soon be renovated.
This was decided at a meeting of the Parishad's executive panel meeting held on May 4. The committee during the meeting decided to reduce examination fees for the students keeping in view the inflation. Also it resolved to increase rewards for those engaged in dissemination of Sanskrit, revise honorarium for examiners and increase the discount on books.
The committee also felicitated Pandit Dhanshankar Gaurishankar Vaidya, an aged Sanskrit scholar and erstwhile royal Ayurveda physician, who attended the executive committee meeting. During the meeting, the budget estimates for the year 2012-13 were also presented before the executive panel. Parishad's Rs 7.24 lakh deficit-budget with an estimated income of Rs 21.02 lakh and estimated expenditure of Rs. 28.26 lakh was approved.
The meeting was chaired by president of the Parishad (rtd) Justice M S Parikh and the chancellor Parimal Nathwani. In his address, the chairman talked of pride and prestige of the ancient Indian culture and the importance of Sanskrit language. He also said that he was always available for the programmes of parishad and even for contributing towards the parishad's work.

It seems hard to believe, but there was a time when comedy albums routinely went to No. 1. In the early '60s, Bob Newhart, Allan Sherman, and Vaughn Meader shared the top of the charts with Elvis Presley, Ray Charles, and the soundtrack to West Side Story. Even Bill Cosby made his name as a recording artist before he got into TV and movies.
That would never happen today. Because contemporary comedy is so much more dependent upon visuals, most stand-up doesn't really stand up when heard on the stereo. Maybe that's why Seinfeld on Broadway was a hit on HBO and a dud on CD.
The sad state of comedy recordings ought to be bad news for ''Weird Al'' Yankovic, but it's not. True, his videos are often funnier than the songs they illustrate, but that hasn't kept him from selling albums and for good reason. Because as Running With Scissors demonstrates, Yankovic's jokes are eminently listenable.
That's more a matter of the playing than the punchlines. Never mind that the soul of Yankovic's song parodies is the wacky words he writes to replace the original lyrics, turning skinny Michael Jackson's ''Bad'' into the food-obsessed ''Fat,'' or remaking ''Like a Virgin'' as ''Like a Surgeon''; the real kick is that he gets the music exactly right, so that even if his jokes aren't hysterical, hearing them turn up in such a familiar song is.
For instance, imagine that Don McLean had written ''American Pie'' about Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace and you'll sense the elaborate silliness of Yankovic's ''The Saga Begins.'' It kicks off by setting the opening text of Stars Wars ''A long, long time ago/In a galaxy far away...'' to the first notes of the McLean oldie. Moreover, the song gets better as it goes along, partly because the ups and downs of George Lucas' rambling story fit McLean's false-climax arrangement to a tee, but mostly because Yankovic perfectly captures McLean's vocal mannerisms. Likewise, the ''One Week''-based ''Jerry Springer'' delivers Barenaked Ladies' sound with K-tel precision, right down to the rapid-fire raga sections.
Yankovic seems considerably less inspired when the melodies he's working with are his own. ''My Baby's in Love With Eddie Vedder'' is paint-by-numbers zydeco, while the transvestite trucker tune ''Truck Drivin' Man'' is just generic C&W, and ''Germs'' is carried by a host of Nine Inch Nails licks.
But then, originality has never been Yankovic's strong suit. Indeed, certain kinds of gags recur with clockwork predictability on his albums. Like Mel Brooks and Mad magazine, for example, Yankovic believes that inappropriate Jewishness is an automatic laugh getter, so he makes sure to have at least one piece of kosher comedy per release. Here, it's a ''Pretty Fly (for a White Guy)'' parody called ''Pretty Fly for a Rabbi,'' which includes a whole lotta Yiddish (''I could plotz!'') and a handful of hoary stereotypes (''He has to find a bargain 'cause he won't pay retail price''). On paper, the lyrics are fairly stupid, but when Yankovic cranks the guitars and pushes his voice up to Dexter Holland range, the result is so absurd you've got to laugh.
Besides, Yankovic's approach has worked so well over the years that it's hard to begrudge him not wanting to change the formula. So in the tradition of ''I Think I'm a Clone Now,'' we get the science-oriented ''It's All About the Pentiums'' (a parody of Puff Daddy's ''It's All About the Benjamins''); continuing the string of food jokes is ''Grapefruit Diet'' (a ''Zoot Suit Riot'' riff); and following in the footsteps of ''Hooked on Polka'' and ''Polka Your Eyes Out'' comes the medley ''Polka Power!'' which polka-cizes ''Tubthumping,'' ''Ray of Light,'' and ''The Dope Show'' among others.
Okay, so it's not exactly Noel Coward. But compared with most comedy recordings these days, Running With Scissors is a cut above. B

My house was built in 1940. Apparently the man who built it did it all himself and lived here until he died in the 1990's. I was told it's a Tudor Revival. Is that what it is? |
Here is a link that might be useful: My House
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by civ_IV_fan (My Page) on Wed, Mar 9, 11 at 15:01
first, nice house! the porch roof is definitely tudor-style, but the house overall lacks to many elements to be called tudor revival. half-timbering, arching elements in the windows, and a more "old english cottage" look. the red horizontal bricks what put it over the top for not really being a tudor. so what is it? i would say a colonial cape cod with tudor influence. it looks post war to me with what i think are standard sized doors and windows. |
It is definitely 1940. I do know that. But the doors and windows are standard sized. I didn't think it really looked like a Tudor Revival when I do image searches. It's much more "plain" than anything I find. It is a cape cod. We don't have the sloped ceilings upstairs, just lower ceilings. The closest run the length of the bedrooms upstairs and the ceilings in them are sloped. There are a TON of closets and storage space in this house. I've gotten a little information from the older neighbors who have lived here forever. I was told the garage was built later, that the garage used to be in the basement and accessed from the back. All windows are original and he added storm windows one by one as he could afford them. |
- Posted by civ_IV_fan (My Page) on Thu, Mar 10, 11 at 9:45
somehow i didn't see your first post where you gave the date, i was just guessing in my post. 1940 makes sense for sure. Wrap-around underslung garages are common around here in house from say 1930-1950. The detached garage is very nice! |
- Posted by sombreuil_mongrel (My Page) on Thu, Mar 10, 11 at 10:16
The style is called English Cottage in the biz. Casey |
Cute house! I've always thought that the garage/driveway going down under the house seemed so weird. I've never actually been in a house that had that though. Much better, I think, to have a nice detached garage like yours. You are so lucky to have "TONS of storage", especially since the house doesn't look large. How many square feet is it? [Sorry, I'm not contributing at all to the "what style is my house" question!] :-) -Kim |
We've been told that a sure clue as to the approximate era of a house back in the 1st 1/2 of the 1900s is the depth of the eaves. Because building materials were in tight supply during WWII, eaves of homes built in the late war period are non-existant skinny. Your age estimate matches that perfectly. The inside looks like many bungalows near us but the exterior is definitely cottage. |
English Cottage. Thank you!!! :) We actually have 1,700 square feet, not counting the basement. It's very deceptive from the outside. We almost didn't even look at it when we were looking at houses for that very reason. First floor has living room, dining room, kitchen, one bedroom and a full bath. Second floor is two bedrooms, 1/2 bath and what was listed as a "sewing room" which is a little room off our bedroom. The upstairs bedrooms are around 10x10 and I think 12x10. The closets run the entire length of the bedrooms. Plus, we have another small closet in our bedroom AND a big storage closet off the sewing room. Hallway upstairs has a cedar closet and another small closet. The stairs go up about 10 stairs, landing with a window, then turn and go up 3 more. On that landing is a tiny storage thing at the floor...about a foot high, but pretty deep. I have NO idea what that little things is for!!! I use it to store birthday decorations and Easter baskets. haha! |
Does that little storage thing back up to your bathtub? If so, it's the access door to get to the plumbing should, god forbid, you ever need repairs! |
- Posted by civ_IV_fan (My Page) on Fri, Mar 11, 11 at 8:29
english cottage and tudor are basically the same thing. i still think it is missing too many key elements of those styles to be considered either (rounded door, half-timbers, or even some stucco - not saying you need all three, but without one of the three it is a hard sell). i'm sticking with tudor inspired cape cod (although the lack of dormers makes me want to simply call it "transitional"). |
Nope...it's not near the tub. The tub is downstairs. It is underneath the upstairs 1/2 bath. But not really in a spot to access anything. I'm wondering if they guy just wanted to make use of every possible nook and cranny. My poor house just doesn't have an identity! |
- Posted by krycek1984 (My Page) on Sat, Mar 12, 11 at 15:23
TJ, where in the US are you? This style is very common in the Cleveland area. It looks like a cape cod (or what we call a "bungalow" around here) with a tudor-inspired front gable. Agree with civ-fan - a tudor or cottage style house would generally at least have some stucco, a rounded front door, and/or cross beams. My Mom's house is a tudor revival style, it was built in 1929, I believe. It is 1444 sq. ft. I believe tudor revivals were more common in the 20's and early 30's, not sure though. btw civ fan - Civ 5 is way better, than IV, sorry! |

Hi, cjt There are houses in our neighborhood that look exactly like yours. I've always liked the way they look. Does the house have a foyer? You are lucky if it does. Mine was built in 1938. My LR looks a lot like yours (small windows on either side of the fireplace) but the fireplace is on a long wall and there is no foyer. We also have a sloped second story ceiling and small eaves which we use for storage. Compared to your house, our closets are tiny! krycek, I've seen this style of house from the east coast to the midwest. |

Dammit, krycek--I don't want to spend money on Civ V--I read up on it, and it sounded not worth it--now I have to wonder! :) I have I-IV, and the board game, which introduced me to it! |
- Posted by civ_IV_fan (My Page) on Mon, Mar 14, 11 at 7:58
i had NO idea there was a Civ board game...some fan! I have to be careful with Civ IV. I fire it up and next thing I know i've been sitting in front of the computer for 20 hours straight and my eyes are bloodshot, i'm hungry, delirious, and my wife is yelling at me! TJT78 - NOT TRUE about your house not having an identity! It is a transitional style very indicative of late 30s early 40s housing. There are many architectural periods where it is hard to nail down a single style on a house. It is sort of like saying something is a "rock" song. There is pure rock, but most is a little different. |
Sorry...I forgot to check back here! We are north of Dayton, OH. There are a lot of similar looking homes in the Oakwood area, but not really many around here. I do have a small entry. Probably like 6 x 4 or so. With a huge closet. And there's a safe in the closet that I finally figured out how to open! :) I have to say, I was growing a bit tired of this house until I found this forum. Reading about old houses and learning a bit about mine has made me love it a little more. :) |

It seems the theme of this woot-off is 'stuff we've been selling for the same price for days on woot plus' deals.
How time flies. It seems like just yesterday Woot! was selling this as a daily... Oh wait, it WAS yesterday.
Seeing how woot seems real desperate to get rid of these, I will offer 20$ for one. Does woot have a counter offer?
Are these useful? I mean, apart from irritating your cats?
Pretty sure everyone who wanted one of these bought it yesterday when it was on sale for 24 hours at the same price.

I just hate having to go on vacation and stop at inlaws or extended family. I just love going for weekend and do what I want to do with myself and spouse. My husband seems to want to stop always at someones home. We do and they control the rest of our time. Its so not fun. Do you ever feel this way and just want to do your own thing without that darn extended family. |

I don't mind visiting but we get a motel room first!!! That way we (me) is in better control. Many Times they have things planned we just are not interested in or plans that don't fit with ours. Especially if there is children involved on either side. But we did years of traveling with a RV and there was many things at RV parks that were interesting to us, but not our friends and relatives. Instead of visiting at home, sometimes we would meet them at a restaurant or even at a park. |
- Posted by scarlett2001 (My Page) on Sun, Aug 28, 11 at 18:58
I agree that visiting relatives would not be my fav vacation. In fact, "family vacation" is kind of a contradiction in terms. I would like to address this from the other side: family members decide to drop in without calling or arranging beforehand - too rude! We live in S. CA near Disneyland, Universal Studios, Hollywood and all the other tourist attractions. People come here in the hot summer and expect to go to those destinations, which are extremely crowded and uncomfortable in the tourist season. I now just give them directions and say have-a-nice-time. I think family vacations taken together maybe work on a cruise ship or someting. Otherwise it's not very relaxing. |
I usually don't mind if it's on the way to our destination. |

i'm wearing: splendid flannel dress (old), one grey day sweater c/o excess baggage, MIA booties and shopbop necklace.
do you guys get flu shots? i only started after having eep. and i feel like such an old person. i mean, who willingly goes in to get an unnecessary shot? i had to pick up a few prescriptions (as old people often do…lol) at CVS so i just popped into the minute clinic to get a flu shot while i was there. and now my husband is upset because he is the only one who didn't get one this year.
p.s. my sweater in this post is by one grey day. you might remember my other ogd sweater here (and here). both are so unique and yet so totally wearable. i love the fun cutouts, asymmetrical lines & zippers!!!

Supermodel Candice Swanepoel had bleached out her normally sunny blonde locks just hours before the amfAR Inspiration Gala on Thursday night. "I needed to re-do my color, and I don't like to be bored, so I just said, 'Let's do something crazy,'" she said of her new color.
Swanepoel hadn't quite adjusted to her new tresses before hitting the red carpet. "I don't even know what I look like," she joked, pulling at a strand before adding, "It's gonna take me some time to get used to, but I think it's cool."

The city Development and Engineering Services Department reported issuing 26 permits in the third month of this year, including three commercial, 10 building addition/alteration and 13 residential.
The city of Cleveland collected $10,199 in fees for construction valued at $2.37 million, well short of the $5.351 million registered in the second month and $3.053 million in the first month of 2013.
The county Building Inspections Department reported issuing 24 permits, including one commercial, 16 residential and seven in the residential additions and others category. Bradley County collected $5,453 in fees for construction valued at $2.03 million.
The construction value in the county remained about the same as the $2.3 million registered in February and $2.14 million in January, not including three new firehouses valued at $2.2 million each.
Of the 13 residential permits issued in March by the city of Cleveland, five were single family and eight were townhomes located on Stonebriar Drive by Duggan Development Co. LLC. and Chelsea Drive by Robert M. Lee Construction. The job values of the townhomes range from $70,000 to $71,250.
The five single-family homes range in value from $110,000 to $175,000.
Two of the 10 Building Addition/Alteration permits are of note. One is to bring a house at 222 Dooley St. N.E. up to code. The late Rev. Ralph Carlton Scotton, a prominent leader and evangelist in the Church of God of Prophecy, built the house in 1940.
According to past accounts, he was licensed as a bishop on Jan. 30, 1940. The vision of lost souls haunted him in the spring of 1941 to the point that he was "forced to give up everything and really get on the field for God."
At the denomination's General Assembly of that same year, he was appointed "general field secretary to the general overseer for the colored race." In that capacity, he established churches in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Louisiana and Pennsylvania.
His younger brother, Willie Thomas Scotton, was the first African-American to teach at Cleveland High School.
The second building addition/alteration of interest is a kitchen-remodeling project at Cleveland High School for a culinary arts lab.
The three commercial permits include an office building at 2400 North Ocoee St. for sports medicine valued at $500,000; a professional building at 3760 Ocoee Place N.E. costing $240,000 and a $12,750 pump house at a luxury apartment complex at 3925 Adkisson Drive.
In Bradley County, the lone commercial project was issued in the amount of $20,000 to Wacker Polysilicon North America at 553 McBryant Road.
The 16 new-home permits valued at $1.74 million included seven single-family homes ranging in value from $100,000 to $350,000; four double wide mobile homes; five single wide mobile homes; and one camper.
The seven additions totaled $278,800.

A healthy start for Audley in 2015
There are no excuses for making healthy New Year's resolutions at Audley this year.
We have a new gym opening at the end of February, plenty of exercise classes after work and even nutrition lectures during lunchtimes. Our London office are proud of their new space hoppers – ideal for taking a break from your desk, and much use is made of the table tennis, or 'ping pong' in our Boston office. During January there were even stretchercise classes on offer, as well as massages. We're definitely well looked after!
Movember update
Movember has once again come to an end. Our Mo-brothers can shave off their top lips, smug in the knowledge that they've raised a whopping £2,358 so far, with the total still rising!
Movember is a charity that raises money and awareness for prostate cancer, testicular cancer and men's mental health problems.
1 in 9 men in the UK are likely to face prostate cancer in their lifetime.
To find out more visit the official Movember charity website.
If you wish to make a donation to the Audley Mo-brothers you can do so here:
Well done to everyone who took part in all three of our offices.

Audley staff 'wear it pink' for Breast Cancer Research
Last Friday we held another very successful cake sale here at New Mill to raise money for 'wear it pink', a campaign to raise money for Breast Cancer Research. Many cakes were consumed and raffle tickets bought. In the afternoon there was even a cotton candy machine and staff showed their support by wearing pink all day.
A total of £215.65 was raised for this worthwhile cause.
Around 1000 women die from breast cancer every month in the UK. You can find out more on the Cancer Research UK website.
India team take part in FRANK Water fundraising challenge
FRANK Water are making a splash for World Water Week this week (1st – 7th September) and our India team are joining them.
They'll be bravely giving up all tea, coffee, squash and juice for a whole week to raise money for the 'Join Jon' fundraising campaign.
World cup charity events raise money for charities in Latin America
Our Latin America team have been busy fundraising over the last couple of weeks for their favourite charities.
They held cake sales in our Witney and London offices, raising over £270, and also a penalty shoot out between the different departments in our Witney office (strangely the South America team won!).
The total raised is just shy of £500, meaning we could pay for a nurse at Casa Mantay in Peru for three months, or buy food for everyone at the house for ten days.
We will be splitting the money with Amigos de Santa Cruz in Guatemala, and many families will benefit from the nutrition classes that the association gives.
Find out more about the charities we support on our website.
Tour de Audley for the charity SSNAP
In the true spirit of the Tour de France, 35 Audley staff members will take part in a bike ride this weekend to raise money for charity.
Covering roughly 80 miles, from the New Mill office in Witney, to the new London office in Shepherd's Bush, the aim is to raise as much money as possible for Oxford based charity SSNAP.
The Charity supports sick and premature babies in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit at the John Radcliffe Hospital.
To find out more or to make a donation, please visit our 'Tour de Audley' charity page.
Good luck everyone!
(29/7/2014) To date we have raised a staggering £3,500 for SSNAP – an Audley fundraising record!
Good luck at the Triathlon European Championships Fiona!
Qualifying to compete for Great Britain in any sport is no easy feat and considering Fiona had no intention of getting involved in the first place, makes qualifying for the 2014 ETU Triathlon European Championships even more impressive.

Our new London office is officially open!
Today marks another milestone in the history of Audley Travel. Our new office in Shepherd's Bush is now up and running.

What's the best way to treat a molar pregnancy?If you are diagnosed with a molar pregnancy, your doctor will likely order a procedure to remove the growth right away, because the tissue itself can lead to another disorder called persistent trophoblastic disease (which could potentially develop into a cancerous form of the disease). A molar pregnancy is a scary diagnosis, but it doesn't mean that you can't have a safe and healthy pregnancy after treatment. What can I do to prevent a molar pregnancy?There's no known way to prevent a molar pregnancy. What do other pregnant moms do when they have a molar pregnancy? "Went in for my ultrasound yesterday, and I have the placenta, ovaries, hormones, and pregnancy symptoms of a 10-week pregnant body, but no embryo. My doctor said it's a molar pregnancy, where an abnormal growth in the uterus tricks the body into thinking it's pregnant.""I had a complete molar pregnancy. I ended up in the ER with excessive bleeding and underwent a second D&C. My HCG levels had actually gone up in the past two days preceding the second D&C.""I had a partial molar pregnancy, and being told I had to wait to TTC again has been one of the hardest things for me."

"This was fantastic!! The only thing I did different was to use a little less water (1cup) since I was using frozen berries. Next time I will also cut down on the sugar because I do like things to be a little more tart:)"
"This was delicious! So moist and flavorful. I didn't have cheddar to grate, so I used parmesan only and it was fantastic! My kids and husband gobbled it up and I even saved on breast to make more the next day for lunch over my salad! YUM!"
"These were fabulous!! I made extra garlic butter per other reviews and didn't have any left. They really soak it up, which makes them so good!! I used a pinot grigio wine, which seemed to give these that authentic Red Lobster taste!! My kids couldn't get enough!"
"The seasonings make this! I mistakenly cooked our 6lb roast for 15min longer, so it was more medium well that medium rare, but the flavor was awesome. Will definately do it again and only bake for 45min in the final bake. I'm sure it will be perfect! Update: I made this again with the exact recipe and it was perfect. We have also found out t..."

Got Macrobiotic Diet Questions? Ask Macro Marsha
- 16
- March
- 2013
Whether you are newly researching the Macrobiotic Diet for yourself or a friend or loved one, and your questions start piling up, where do you go for your important questions???
Some just aren't in the Macrobiotic Diet books, even though your queries have probably come up time and again.
Just email your question to email@example.com, and I will answer you promptly!
Every question is important, and let me assure you, I always say if I could succeed with this Macrobiotic Diet, everyone else can too! No one could have been more overwhelmed in the beginning than I. And I had to learn quickly to help my husband recover from heart disease. Most importantly though, I had to learn this well, and continue being on the leading edge of this ever evolving way of life.
So, where have I learned these answers, if they aren't even in the macrobiotic diet books?
From macrobiotic cooking classes with very special senior macrobiotic counselors, study at the Kushi Institute, and the six years I conducted the group consultations for Michio Kushi at the Kushi Summer Conferences. All invaluable information. And if your question is new for me, I'll find you the answer, or the best contact for you to call.
Besides, my teaching background is the clue for your success. When I taught literature my students never earned below an A? When they did, I just had them rewrite their papers, retake their exams, reread the book, and they learned they could succeed. During the process they came to love the literature they were reading, but mostly they came to like themselves through the process. And the best part, so many more of my students furthered their education at the college level than ever planned in this particular community.
So, how does this apply to Y-O-U, and your experience with the Macrobiotic Diet? Success! That's the key, your success! Yep, if I could do this, and do it well, Y-O-U
C-A-N! Just email firstname.lastname@example.com where it's all about you!

LPGA.com counts down to the end of 2013 with the LPGA Tour's 13 top stories of the year. Join us as we look back at the year's most memorable milestones. Read about Feng shining in China in Story No. 8.
Shanshan Shines in China
You could not have written it out much better. The storyline and dramatic finish at the inaugural Reignwood LPGA Classic seemed to be fit for a Hollywood script. The LPGA Tour held its first event in mainland China at the Pine Valley Golf Club in Beijing and brought some of the Tour's brightest stars to the country's capital including the Tour's first Chinese winner and major champion, Shanshan Feng.
Feng had a strong presence in the process of the Tour bringing an event to her native country and earlier in the week, signed an endorsement deal with the tournament's title sponsor, Reignwood. She was the hometown hero and one of golf's biggest ambassadors in China. All eyes were on Feng with the expectation to perform in front of the Chinese crowds. And did she ever deliver.
Feng played well all week posting rounds of 70-64-64 in the first three rounds and held a one-shot lead over Stacy Lewis heading into the final round. The duo battled down the stretch on Sunday and walked to the 18th tee with Lewis one shot ahead of Feng.
"Well, when I was going to the final hole I was one down, and the last hole is a short par 5, which I thought Stacy was going for, which she didn't, so I was like, oh, maybe she's giving me a chance for playing off," said Feng. "I never thought I would just hit the second shot so close to the pin I made the eagle."
Feng hit one of the most miraculous shots of the year in such a high-pressure situation. Her ball took a perfect bounce right in front of the green, directing it right on line with the pin. After hitting the flag stick, Feng's ball rolled to three feet, setting her up for eagle.
"Actually that shot I didn't go for anything," said Feng. "I aimed like at the center of the green, just wanted to have a chance to putt, and I actually pushed it a little bit, so it was it was right in line with the pin, but I thought it was a little short. And then suddenly while I was walking I heard the noise when I crowd went like, "Wow!" I thought, what happened? I was like, 'It must be good because they kept going.' I was like, 'I must be close.'"
Feng sank her eagle putt to become the first winner of the Reignwood LPGA Classic and said the victory ranked just as high as her major title last year at the Wegmans LPGA Championship.
"I would say I'm as happy as when I won the major last year," said Feng. "This is our first time to have an LPGA event in Beijing, and Reignwood is my new sponsor, so I really wanted to do well to make them look good. And I think I did a great job.
