A Promise in Pieces
10.16.14 |
08.12.09 | | Comments[3]
I am currently reading a book by Kerry & Chris Shook. Kerry and Chris founded Fellowship of The Woodlands near Houston, Texas. The book, titled One Month to Live, asks the reader to take a 30-Day Challenge. Ask yourself how you would spend those last 30 days if you knew you only had that much time to live.
So often we suffer from what the authors call the "someday" syndrome. Always waiting for someday to begin to live the life we've always dreamed of. You know how that goes.... I'll take that vacation when life is not so busy or I'll be happy when I have the right job, find the right person, have a family.
Why do we spend so much of our time waiting? Waiting for that someday to arrive? Our time on earth is limited and as you read this, another minute is gone forever. If we knew we only had one month to live, would we live differently? Would we be more deliberate about how we spend our time?
I think if I knew I only had 30 days left to live, I would want to see as much of God's amazing world as possible. Experience the variety of His creation, meet people from different cultures. There is only one drawback though.... I would want to experience it with the people I love the most - my children and friends. OK - everyone gets a month's vacation! Let's go!
This quote from the book really makes me think.
"Looking at old tombstones, I can't help but recognize that entire lives are now reduced before me to two dates and one little dash. Some monuments include facts or sayings, Bible verses or poignant memorials, but each person's life really comes down to what transpired between those two dates. It comes down to what's in the dash. I look at the dash of a particular person's marker and wonder, What did he live for? Whom did she love? What were his passions? What were her biggest mistakes and greatest regrets?"
God decides what dates go on our tombstone but we get to decide how we're going to use our dash. Are you truly living your dash? Are you living passionately, loving completely? Will you leave this earth boldly?
How would you spend your time if you knew you had only 30 days left to live??
Your Comments(please keep them on topic and polite)
Among other things, I would write my funeral service, not leave it to others to decide. I want my Lord glorified in the songs, poetry, and prose. I would write a keepsake letter to each of my children, and grandchildren, about what I've learned from life and knowing Christ. I would give my stuff away to whom I wish to have it. No doubt, I would cease to color my hair! And that is just for starters...
That is an excellent quote from the book. I agree it is certainly food for thought. Of course, the reality is that we don't really know how much time we actually have. Which reminds me of that saying "live life like there's no tomorrow."
Just the other day pertaining to my own recent circumstances, I said to a guy at church "it's either a cake-walk or a faith-walk." The cake-walk is easy. The faith-walk is hard. I don't know what is going to happen tomorrow, so rather than worry about it, I'm trying to embrace the faith the Lord wants me to have to trust in Him completely.
I've been single my whole life and not entirely too happy with that situation. In all honestly, I've been very unhappy with that and have crumbled about it a lot, even in my prayers. In Matthew, Jesus says some will not marry because God made them that way, others will not marry because man made them that way, and others will choose not to marry to serve God.
We are frequently handed situations in life we personally feel are unfair or unjust. Yet as Jesus taught, these situations can serve God's glory, if we allow them to do that and don't fight against it. In that, I can truly relate to the above-mentioned "someday" syndrome... trying to prepare for a day that may never come. But that thinking can distract us from the present day that is at hand.
In Numbers, we read how the children of Israel were led out of bondage through God's miraculous hand, and yet they grumbled and complained. In their circumstances, they forgot about all the great things God HAD already done for them. So God left them in the desert or the wilderness. And I realize that is a place I do not want to be left in.
So while thinking about only having 30 days is thought provoking, I'm trying to just take one day at a time, trusting God's good hand and taking control over the things I actually have control over and leaving the rest to HIS good wishes. Which isn't always easy because my selfish desires may not always align with HIS wishes.
That's my train of thought: just trying to live today to His glory. If I could have back all the time I have fretted, worried and wasted time being depressed about being single, I could be many years younger. What did all that worry, depression and grumbling accomplish me? I'm still single. So obviously the lesson for me is to not worry about tomorrow.
And as Jesus taught, what good does it me to worry about tomorrow when I have more than enough worries for today.
"What are you doing with your dash?," (ie. How are you living your life?) is a very thought provoking question. (very convicting too) I guess I want my life to have made a difference in the lives of my family and others who know me. My goal is to be able to finish my life hearing the words, "good and faithful servant." If I were to choose the words for my epitaph, they would be, "She loved God and she loved people."

Singer Mariah Carey has shared a brand new picture of her twin babies, Monroe and Moroccan and the two youngsters seem to be growing up so fast. Mariah has shared a number of pictures of Monroe and Moroccan since they were born and each time they seem to be getting bigger and cuter and this time is no different.
The latest picture of Monroe and Moroccan shows the twins laying side by side on their tummies on a very large bed. Both Monroe and Moroccan are holding themselves up with their arms.
While one of them is look off camera somewhere, the other is looking straight down the lens with big bright eyes. There is no denying that this picture is one of the cutest yet of the twins.
Mariah Carey now has a battle on her hands when it comes to baby photos, as Jay-Z and Beyoncé have released their very first pictures of Blue Ivy and she too is a very cute baby. However, we cannot decide which baby is the cutest, as we find pretty much every baby simply adorable. So we are looking forward to an all out baby picture war. Let the photos commence.

Hello Everyone,
Ok I will start off with an apology since I am sure I will have many questions in the weeks to come. Last night my girl and I decided to stop by our local gaming store to see if we could find a board game to play due to the fact that on most nights we find ourselves doing the same old stuff. Anyways being a HUGE Lovecraft fan, I saw Arkham Horror and instantly grabbed it knowing I would love to play the game. We got home, opened it up, punched everything out, and went through the game setup section exactly as the Rules Book instructed us to do. Then we started our first game and started coming across a few situations that did not make sense to us.
The first being Monster Movement, now we think we understand how it works. During the Mythos Phase you pull a Mythos card, a gate opens, you draw a monster from the monster cup. You match the monsters little green symbol with the appropriate matching symbol on the Mythos card in either the black or white bar…easy enough. However we had situations where the monsters we would draw would not have symbols that match the Mthos card that was pulled…does that mean that that monster can not move? Sorry if it sounds confusing , but that's how we feel…utterly confused.

How does Nick react to Jordan in chapter 1?
1 Answer | Add Yours
In the first chapter of The Great Gatsby, Nick finds himself immediately attracted to Jordan Baker. Much of his description of her is physical.
Slender and charming are two terms he uses to describe her and he also admires her discontentment and apparent superiority to the situation she is in. As an outsider, it is possible that Nick connects with Jordan for this reason – he feels that she is an outsider too, at least emotionally.
However, we can say definitely that the emphasis of Nick's response to this meeting is on Jordan Baker's physical appearance which he finds pleasing.
I enjoyed looking at her.
This is the first and most telling line from his initial encounter with Miss Baker.

Client Testimonials |
From our first meeting with Scott Furman, we knew we were in good hands. Scott is by far, the best real estate agent we've worked with and we've moved 4 times in 4 years! Scott viewed our home, gave us feedback and suggested a selling price $15,000 over what we thought we could get. He was right! Despite the challenging market conditions, our house sold in record time for 98% of the asking price. We are so thankful to Scott and his entire team for their guidance and support throughout the selling process. If you want to sell your house quickly and for an excellent price, hire Scott Furman!!! -Sincerely, Regina and Mark Frey |
We have worked with Scott for the past 10 years and just want to say that he knows his business and his clients exceptionally well. He is always very responsive to our questions and concerns and behaves in the utmost professional manner. This is what truly makes Scott top of the class. During our search for a home, Scott was both patient and thorough. He showed us those properties that met our criteria, and Scott was patient enough to spend the time it took for us to feel comfortable making a buying decision. -Thanks for everything my dear friend. ~ Tom Nagy |
Dear Scott, I just wanted to thank you again for all your help with the selling of my condo. I knew when I bought the condo with your help 6 years ago, that I wanted you as my realtor when I sold my condo. With the way the economy is, I was pleased and surprised that you sold it in less than a month and through your professionalism, encouragement and resourceful the closing was a success. I appreciate you and Nancy's availability and concern with meeting all my needs. Thank you for making it a Happy New Year for me! -Sincerely, Diane M. Kolasinski |
In an extremely rough housing market, I was so fortunate to work with such a true professional, as Scott Furman. I really do believe that I would have struggled selling my home if it weren't for Scott and his expertise. Scott was able to help me navigate the housing market, make advantageous changes, and come out on top. For every question, thought, doubt and worry, he was right there to work through it with me. I would recommend Scott to anyone looking to make that big life change in either buying or selling their home. Thank you Scott! -Bonnie Duncan |
Hello Scott ~ I just wanted to drop you a note to tell you how much we enjoy the new house. It is perfect for all of us. Lynn and I are close to the major transportation hubs, our 3 year old loves the yard, we are in a great school district, and we all are thrilled with the friendly neighborhood. You made the process of being a buyer so easy. We were not faced with a difficult decision thanks to your sorting out the homes based on all the criteria we gave you. I like the way you let "us" give our opinions on each house then worked to make those ideas part of the search. It was good not to have the realtor try to sell us what they like, rather what we wanted! If we should decide to sell you would be our first and last choice as a realtor. -Best regards, Tom Daniels |
We recently had the pleasure of working with Scott Furman and his RE/MAX Classic team on the sale of my house in Paoli. This was our first time selling a home and we realized very quickly that we needed help with EVERYTHING. After "shopping around" we came to the conclusion that we needed an agent who was willing to sit down and have an honest discussion about pricing, showing, and attracting a serious buyer. Scott fit this description perfectly. Scott's process led to realistic expectations and a transparent approach. While other comparable homes lingered on the market, ours received elevated attention from serious buyers from day one. He even recommended vendors who were extremely knowledgeable and professional. Scott and his team managed the process every step of the way, which was tremendous for us given our move out of state while the house was on the market/under contract. Overall, I highly recommend Scott Furman and RE/MAX Classic to any seller looking for a team to expertly lead them through the home selling process! -Sincerely, Cory Allen |
We would recommend Scott Furman to anyone selling a home. Besides years of experience and acumen, Scott has heart and genuinely cares for his clients. We will always call Scott Furman for our real estate transactions. PS we're already recommending him to our friends and family! -Geoff & Beth Goldwater |
Scott for a number of years and having confidence in his abilities, when he suggested a listing price that was below my neighbor's, I decided his knowledge of the market was right on the mark. No, we didn't have weekly open houses, or a realtor's open house, which Scott doesn't believe in, but we had a lot of action with interested buyers for 3 weeks and then it sold! His professionalism during the entire process was outstanding and although it was a hard move for me, and a difficult mortgage market for the buyer, we completed the transaction from start to finish. Many kudos to Scott, and thanks also to his office staff who were always there for me. -Bobbie Turner Fischer |
We had been trying to downsize for a couple of years. We knew the sale could be challenging because our home is a contemporary--not exactly in high demand on the Main Line. Yet when our house was listed, we had numerous showings--but all we had to show for it was a lot of open houses, frustration and disappointment. A friend of mine suggested we contact Scott Furman. I checked out his web site and gave him a call. His no nonsense approach was refreshing and eye opening. He had a plan to market our house and get it sold. When I worried about the month we were selling, he dispelled the myths; when I worried about showings, he worked with our schedule; when I didn't want a lock box, it was no problem. And we did not have any open houses. Scott's extensive real estate knowledge, business acumen, attitude, and professionalism got our house sold during mid-August after less than two weeks on the market. And, we had competing offers over asking price! For a contemporary home we were amazed and thrilled! Scott helped us through every step with patience and assurance. Then, he helped us find a terrific home in our target area. Calling Scott Furman was the best real estate decision we have ever made. -Joyce and Al Jeuell |
"We are so pleased that Scott Furman found us the ideal, new home within our budget and
our timeframe. We look forward to many wonderful years in this beautiful house!"
-James & Danka Rauer |
Scott Furman is a true real estate professional. He gives great advice that will keep you
on track during the transaction. He knows the mainline market so well that he can put
a very accurate price on a house before it sells. In addition, he has a very talented
support staff that will ensure the transaction moves along smoothly.
My wife and I had very difficult requirements when looking a new house. In addition,
we were looking for a house in Wayne, where available properties are very scarce. He
was extremely patient and stayed with us during the process. Many agents would have
given up on us after looking for almost 2 years. Scott was always candid and fair with
his advice. One day, he walked us through a house Wayne and we made and offer the
very next day. The property is far above our expectations for our first house. We
couldn't be happier. My advice, hire a professional for the most important purchase of
your life. Hire Scott Furman.

Forge Crossing.
It was on the market for 21 months before you took over. The value of the housing market made my home harder to sell. However when you took over, you told me you had a plan to get a buyer by putting a deadline for any interesting buyers to respond. We had 4 potential buyers within 3 days and under contract in a week. I can only tell youthat I felt secure knowing that you and your staff, Nancy in particular, would bring the house to settlement in a timely manner and you did. Thank you again for a smooth process. -All my best, Ron Ferraro |
We are highly recommending Scott. He is real, available, calm, competent and kind.
His really professional realty experiences and guidance were valuable and helped
sell our wonderful Wayne house in one day!
With gratitude, -Rinah & Craig Karson |
Scott helped our family immensely over the last 2 years. Scott was very
patient as my parents moved from their family home of 60 years into assisted
living. Scott worked with us to correct deficiencies by recommending trusted
contractors. He responded to a number of scenarios for different living
solutions for our parents. The sale was quick and handled professionally. We
would recommend Scott.
-Tim Daily |
Thanks again for all that you did for my Mom in getting her house sold. It was a
long ordeal, in many ways, for her but everything you got done in time.
I met the buyer just before we pulled away from the house. She seemed very excited and please. Always a good feeling and nice for my Mom. Best of Luck, -Jeff Dowler |

I'm showing my age here (40) but have to admit that this was my first real experience of a virtual birthday. Thanks to Facebook and their excellent data collection efforts and my own savvy PR efforts :) I received TONS of birthday wishes yesterday from friends all over the country.
This has me thinking:
1) Send happy birthday wishes to your top 100 stakeholders. (No brainer but hard to do.)
2) Brainstorm all of the important events in the life of your organization and use this info to prioritize and promote your fundraising campaigns. Significant events can include anniversaries, births, deaths and key world events.
All good fundraisers and marketers create real (or perceived) deadlines to encourage timely response. Special times in the life of your org or your key stakeholders are great opportunities to showcase what you do and why. Planning around significant events will 1) help you cut through the clutter by giving your cause more resonance on certain dates 2) it will also provide motivation for your staff, volunteers and board. Nothing drives performance like a real deadline!
For example, last year my church celebrated it's 50 anniversary. Quite a milestone in the live of our community. We did hold a luncheon for parishioners (sound familiar)? But we didn't do any additional fundraising. More important we didn't involve outsiders in the celebration of our anniversary. What a missed opportunity!
In our noisy world, it's hard to get noticed. But a little calendaring and planning can go along way. Pick 2-3 dates in 2009 and 2010 that will make your cause come alive and then promote the heck out of these dates.

A Flossmoor boy was ordered held on $2 million bail Sunday after he was charged with murdering his older brother.
Michael Tigue, 15, who has been charged as an adult with first-degree murder, said he was a victim of bullying and admitted to planning the attack on 25-year-old Steven Tigue, Cook County Assistant State's Attorney Shawn Abraham said Saturday at a bond hearing.
Police found Steven Tigue with a stab wound in his home in the 2800 block of Chayes Park Drive about 12:55 a.m. Friday after they responded to a domestic disturbance there.
He was taken to South Suburban Hospital in Hazel Crest, where he was pronounced dead at 1:38 a.m., according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
An autopsy conducted Friday found the man's death to be a homicide, making it the first in Flossmoor in more than 30 years, authorities said.
Police identified Michael Tigue as a possible suspect at the scene, where he was taken into custody, police said. He was charged Friday afternoon.

Weather Hits RAGBARI Riders
INDEPENDENCE, IA (CBS2/FOX28)--The oldest, largest and longest bicycle touring event in the world made its way into independence today.
It's day six of RAGBRAI and while many riders have their eyes set on tomorrow's final destination, others are still trying to bounce back after a visit from Mother Nature.
The word welcome has never sounded so good to these riders.
"I'm from Colorado and I'm riding the mountains all the time and this ranks probably one of my top five most difficult rides, said Scott Grow.
He's talking about the ride to Independence. A ride accompanied by stormy weather that just wouldn't quit.
"The roads were brutal this morning. The winds were 30 to 40 miles per hour into the wind for most of the ride Rained for three hours and 45 minutes coming down sideways, Grow said.
While he braved the elements, others took a different route.
"We got to Waverly like 16 miles and they was a little pie place and it was from free will church and they was a young man there we said would you give us a ride to independence and he did, said rider, Ellen Enright.
Their quest was to find showers and a resting place. A service provided by folks from pork belly ventures.
"We are a charter company that provides supports for riders doing RAGBRAI. People that want to come all over the world to do this thing but logistically can be a very daunting experience, said Peter Phillips of Pork Belly Ventures.
They serve more than 1300 people, providing them with food and shelter.
A luxury these riders are happy to have as they prepare for the final day of what some call an unforgettable experience
"It's more than just the ride. It's the people. It's the food, Grow said.
Some teams here had riders who went home early.
For those who are still here the goal is to dip their front tire in the Mississippi River tomorrow.

Buy it, seriously, just buy it...
Reviewed: July 30, 2012 by Lola&Jon, a Straight Going Steady Female
Though I wouldn't say I'm body conscious when with my partner, it's fair to say we all have our own body hang ups and these are only going to be enhanced when considering something so tight and figure hugging. Let's just say, no need to worry here!
This dress creates a amazing silhouette, clung to my hourglass figure perfectly - not too tight over my hips, but loose at the waist like a lot of fitted clothing.
Though it's not something to be 'slipped into' (obviously, it's very tight when getting it on and you've got to be careful not to tug it too much or catch or tear it); it's well worth the effort! And after all, what are body glide gels for?!
My partner and I are quite into fetishism and rubber/PVC/latex wear, but considering its simplicity, this dress is definitely a favourite! It makes me feel so sexy I'm even considering uploading a photo to Lovehoney and we can't stop looking at the ones we've already taken!
Only slight downside is its tendency to ride up a little when not standing, though I think this may be more down to my rather 'shapely' derrière :P And let's face it, this is a dress to be appreciated - heels, stockings, accessories ;) not something you'll be spending a lot of time lying down in!
- Pros
- Super shiny, super fitted and super sexy.
- Cons
- Rides up slightly when not standing up/walking around.
- Bottom line
- The sexiest item of clothing I've ever owned!

Great first latex item of clothing

Well this was my first item of latex. Despite discovering after purchasing that I am actually allergic (results in an itchy face of all things!), I still wear it all the time.
Due to its very simple design it also looks great teamed with different colour stockings, boots/bets. I find it looks amazing with a white bra showing out of the top and a white clinger belt teamed with white stockings and thigh high PVC boots - a must try ladies!
The product is of fantastic quality, as with all Sharon Sloane items.
I am a size 8 and I find it gives a fantastic shape to the body. Sexy and sleek, it seems to hug you where needed and pull you up in other places!
Due to the material, no bra is needed underneath. Pull yourself up and they stay in perfect place!
A perfect kinky outfit for your collection, beginner or not ;o)
- Pros
- Brilliant fit, good quality.
- Cons
- As with all latex, too hard to get on without talc.
- Bottom line
- A very good buy, I'm sure it won't disappoint you!

This dress is fabulous!
This is the first latex item I ever bought and I am extremely happy with it.
The look on the boyfriend's face when he walked through the door was classic!
He enjoyed using the super shiner all over it as well.
It was very flattering on the body and felt comfortable.
It provided a long night of entertainment and this is definitely coming out again.
- Pros
- Perfect shape, non-restrictive, perfect length, good quality
- Cons
- Nothing!
- Bottom line
- If you or your partner like latex, get this!

Since Canine Cologne is always faster at posting our lunches than I am, I will let the picture do most of the talking for our visit to Fish Boutique. You can read her post here. Some pics from the outside.
And more swank.
Even the fish store side has swank.
As did our food. The fried calamari was really good. The "ragu" (I think that's what the waiter called it) was different and pretty good.
Fish and chips done very well with three dipping options: ketchup (mostly for the fries), tartar sauce (I think it looks made in-house), and cocktail sauce.
Grilled tiger prawns with confetti rice (I can't remember the exact name of this). Thank goodness CC and TC helped me finish this. Those prawns were huge and that's a whole lotta rice.
We thought about getting dessert there but decided that we would save ourselves for our next stop.

Round two with Pete Marczyk, chef-owner of Marczyk Fine Foods
If you only had 24 hours in Denver/Boulder, where would you eat? From a purely hedonistic standpoint, Lachlan [MacKinnon-Patterson], Bobby [Stuckey] and the Frasca crew in Boulder are totally world-class, and that whole experience is truly special. So, one -- okay, maybe two -- meals at Frasca, and the other food I'd want would be from our longtime cook, Francisco. I'd hire him to cook at my home for a bunch of friends. He'd kill it.
What's the best food- or kitchen-related gift you've been given? Books about food and the history behind it. I'm really hard to buy gifts for -- if I want it or need it, I go buy it -- but I really love getting books, especially historic books, about food. I want to get my hands on a copy of Le Gout du Pain; it's like the textbook on bread.
What are your favorite wines and/or beers? I like food and drink that are vernacular. Take Schiava from Alto Adige, or Bordeaux Clairet -- you really have to go out of your way to find them, but they just rock, especially with food. We sell a bunch of wines from local importers Phil and Kathy Sevier, whose wines I love. I'm also loving all the success of local stuff, from Infinite Monkey Theorem to Great Divide. We have some great options in Colorado, although I admit that I really miss the Gold Spike lager from Tabernash.
Favorite dishes at the market: The potato salad -- it's my mom's recipe -- along with our fresh mozzarella, house-made roast beef, any of our pies, the duck confit and Disco Jim's pimento cheese on our house-baked baguette. Oh, and our butchers make some of the best sausage anywhere.
Biggest menu bomb: Ratatouille. I think it needs a new name.
Favorite childhood food memory: I seriously have so many. Both my mom and dad are great cooks. My dad was always growing crazy vegetables and making things like white gazpacho from white tomatoes, and we had chickens and rabbits, a great garden and farms all around us. I think I'm just old enough to remember when agriculture was still local, and local food -- read: better -- was less regulated and simply more available. I remember having real bread in Mexico City when I was about ten, and I remember how it tasted with the slightly sour butter...ethereal and life-changing. I remember Silver Queen corn from Underwood's farm down the road from where I grew up; they picked the corn every morning, and my mom or dad would pick up a half-dozen ears almost every day when it was in season. My nana's ham and pickle salad was just stupid-good, and my mom's blackberry pies are totally outrageous. Those tastes stick with you through time.
Favorite junk food: Nolo contendere: Lay's potato chips are Kryptonite to me. I lose all my special powers in their presence.
One book that every chef should read: The Way to Cook, by Julia Child, sort of sums it up, and Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking is way up there, too, and every chef should own Larousse Gastronomique: It's so totally Franco-centric and wonderful, and you see very quickly where the French attitude comes from. The Omnivore's Dilemma is a must-read for anyone who cares about sourcing and food politics.

Letter written by Natsume Sōseki discovered (June 10, 2014)
A letter written in 1896 by novelist Natsume Sōseki (1867-1916) to Ikai Takehiko, one of his colleagues at Ehime Prefectural Middle School in Matsuyama, has been discovered at the home of Ikai's grandson in Wakayama City by the grandson's eldest daughter. Ikai had tried to pay a visit to Sōseki before the latter's departure for Kumamoto, but Sōseki had not been at his lodging so Ikai had left a letter and a tanka with the caretaker. Soseki wrote back the next day apologizing for his absence and adding a haiku of his own. Sōseki's letter also included two poem-cards on which Sōseki had written two more haiku. In addition, an 1899 New Year's card from Sōseki, traveling in Ōita Prefecture at the time, was also discovered, suggesting that the two former colleagues had maintained a correspondence.
Unpublished tanka by Yosano Akiko discovered (June 17, 2014)
Two previously unpublished tanka composed by poet Yosano Akiko (1878-1942) have been discovered among five poem-cards in the possession of a restaurant owner in the city of Tsushima, Aichi Prefecture. The poem-cards were apparently written when Yosano visited Tsushima to give a lecture at a girls' school in 1935, and they all bear Yosano's name as well as the brush-inscribed poems themselves. kurenai no / botan saku hi wa / oozora mo / chi ni shitagaeru / kokochi koso sure (On a day when / crimson peonies bloom, / even the broad sky / seems willing to yield / pride of place to the earth.) haru no yo no / nami mo tsuki aru / oozora mo / tomo ni ginshi no / yoreru tokoro wa [or possibly "yoreru tokoro zo"] On a night in spring, / both waves and the broad sky / with its bright moon / seem thoroughly entwined / in strands of silver. The proprietor of the restaurant, Yamada Harunobu, discovered the poem-cards inside a paper box on a storage shelf in the Buddhist altar room of his home. It is thought that the poems were left by Yosano when she stopped for lunch at an inn being operated at the time by Yamada's family.
Another tanka by Yosano Akiko discovered (July 2, 2014)
A tanka composed by poet Yosano Akiko (1878-1942) has been discovered in Wakayama Prefecture. The tanka is in praise of a furuya-ishi -- an unusually shaped natural stone often suggestive of mountain landscape -- originally the property of the collector Noguchi Ritarō of Tanabe City and now owned by his grandson Hiroshi. Yasano apparently saw the stone at an exhibition Rintarō held at Mitsukoshi Department Store in Tokyo, and composed the tanka in appreciation. Rintarō had titled the stone, which might be interpreted as a human figure holding an object in its hands, "Mi Fu Admires a Stone." Mi Fu, or Bei Fu in Japanese, was an eccentric but talented Chinese literati of the Northern Song Dynasty who took a special interest in collecting distinctively shaped stones. Yosano's poem humorously notes that Mi Fu has been eternally fixed in stone while admiring a stone of his own. The existence of the poem had previously been documented, but the text was not known.
Letters between Kawabata Yasunari and Itō Hatsuyo discovered (July 9, 2014)
Ten letters received by Nobel Prize-winning novelist Kawabata Yasunari (1899-1972) from his early fiancé Itō Hatsuyo (1906-1951) have been discovered at Kawabata's former home in Kamakura, along with one letter addressed by Kawabata to Itō that was never sent. Kawabata met Itō when she was a 13-year-old waitress at a cafe in Tokyo's Hongō district. After the cafe was closed in 1920, Hatsuyo was sent to live in Gifu and Kawabata didn't see her for a year, but in 1921 contact was reestablished and the two became engaged. It was in early November that Itō wrote Kawabata saying that a "certain event" (or "certain emergency" -- aru hijō) made it necessary for her to leave him. The letters from Hatsuyo start from from September 1921; the unsent and undated letter from Kawabata, which expresses concern over Itō's delay in responding to his previous letter, appears to have been intended for posting sometime in or after late October. It is not known why Kawabata did not send the letter.
An additional unpublished tanka composed by Yosano Akiko discovered (July 11, 2014)
In what has become something of a windfall, another previously unpublished tanka by poet Yosano Akiko (1878-1942) has been discovered in Tokyo. The poem, composed a month after the Marco Polo Bridge Incident in July 1937, expresses dismay over the fighting between China and Japan. The tanka reads akikaze ya / ikusa hajimari / minato naru / tada no fune sae / mite kanashikere (Autumn wind-- / with a war now under way, / I view with sadness / even the ordinary boats / I see in the harbor). The tanka is brush-written on a folding fan that belonged to a former government official who happened to meet Yosano at a coffee shop in Yokohama and asked her to inscribe a poem on his fan. The official's son has had the fan in his possession since his father's death.
151st Akutagawa and Naoki Prizes announced (July 17, 2014)
The 151st Akutagawa Prize has been won by Shibasaki Tomoka for Haru no niwa (Spring Garden, published in the June issue of Bungakukai). The 151st Naoki Prize will go to Kurokawa Hiroyuki for Hamon (Expelled, published by Kadokawa). This was Shibasaki's fourth shortlisting for the Akutagawa Prize and Kurokawa's sixth for the Naoki Prize. The presentation ceremony will be held in Tokyo in late August.
Letter with haiku from Natsume Sōseki to Masaoka Shiki discovered (August 13, 2014)
A letter written by novelist Natsume Sōseki (1867-1916) to his friend the haiku poet Masaoka Shiki (1867-1902) has been found at a bookshop in Tokyo. The letter, dated August 23, 1897, was written in Kamakura the day after Sōseki attended a poetry meeting at Masaoka's Nezu home in Tokyo, and contains nine haiku, including two that have never been published. Sōseki's wife, Kyōko, was convalescing in Kamakura at the time, and one of the unpublished haiku refers to her illness: Kyō ni futsuka / mata Kamakura no / aki o omou (Two days in Tokyo, / then thoughts again of autumn / in Kamakura.). The other haiku refers to the temple of Engakuji, which later figured in Sōseki's novel Mon (The Gate). The letter was found among other documents the owner of the bookshop—located in Kogenei—had purchased about 15 years ago in Osaka.

The Rebels knocked off Greenville Christian 21-0 in their home finale Friday night at Gordon Field.
The end of the first quarter found both teams scoreless, although GCS was knocking on the door at the end of the first. The series ended when a deflected pass in the end zone by Austin Brewer was intercepted by Tyler Henson to stop the threat. Both teams would struggle offensively until Carroll took over the ball on the GCS 47 and quickly moved the ball on the first play by Reed Fox rushing to the GCS 19. Carroll would move the ball to the seven yard line where with 5:37 to go in the 1st half, Jake Streater ran it into the end zone. Streater would also convert the PAT putting Carroll up 7 -0.
With 1:42 to go in the 1st half, Carroll would again score on a nine yard pass from Jake Streater to Austin Brewer. Streater would kick the PAT to give Carroll a 14-0 halftime lead. Carroll dominated the first half with 68 yards of rushing and 92 yards of passing.
Jake Streater completed 5 of 9 passes for 82 yards in the first half with one TD. Austin Brewer completed 1 of 2 for 10 yards. Austin Brewer caught 4 of the passes for 47 yards and a TD. Tyler Henson had a catch for 35 yards.
The second half was a defensive battle. However, with 8:14 to go in the 3rd quarter, Jake Streater ran it in from six yards out, Austin Brewer added the PAT to give Carroll a 21-0 lead. GCS would not give up and with 2 seconds left in the 3rd, hit a 50 yard strike, but did not score on the drive. Neither team would score in the 4th.
Overall Carroll had 30 carries for 105 rushing yards, with Jake Liddell leading the way with 11 carries for 43 yards, Reed Fox had 2 carries for 28 yards, Tristan Tackett had 4 carries for 17 yards. Total passing yards were six for 12 for 92 yards, with Carroll only attempting one pass in the second half.
Hunter McCorkle led the defense with eight solo tackles, four assist, a sack and a fumble recovery. Jordan Bell had four solo tackles, one assist and a sack. Reed Fox had three solos and one assist. Interceptions were made by Tristan Tackett, Tyler Henson and Austin Brewer. Tyler Henson also had a fumble recovery.
Carroll heads to Central Holmes Christian School for its last regular season game of the year.

Robust and practical overlap construction apex roof shed with a lockable single shiplap door and a fixed clear styrene window. Manufactured from 8mm dip treated overlap timber.
"Does what it says on the tin! Bargain price and fairly easy to assemble. I added a couple of battens to the inside to give it extra rigidity (and to hang my tools from)."
"Overall the shed is ok, it is debatable whether it should be sold as "premium" as frankly, it is no thicker, nor of any better quality than other similar sheds. It is reasonably good value, however comes with its issues: most sections were warped and in some cases poorly manufactured, in particular the design of the window was particularly poor. If you want a very basic shed, where security and build doesn't matter too much (such as for garden tools) it will do the job, though if you need something more robust then look elsewhere."
"Copied this review from somebody else as it sums it all up brilliantly and I wanted you to see it again! "This product is dreadful - the craftmanship is really poor. The shed we purchased had misplaced nails across all parts, which had split the wood, a cheap and flimsy piece of plastic for the window and warped battons. Yes it is cheap, but it's cheap and nasty and if this is all that can be offered at this price, then it's best not to offer it at all.""

About The Savoy
The Savoy chapel is one of a distinctive group.
The Royal Peculiars and Chapels Royal
Many of England's Royal Peculiars and Chapels Royal are located within the Diocese of London.
These churches and chapels have a 'peculiar jurisdiction' and are usually located on land connected with a royal castle or palace. They are independent of the Church of England's structures and owe allegiance directly to the Sovereign.
The Chapels Royal have their origin in a single establishment known as the Chapel Royal, effectively the King's Royal Free Chapel or Ecclesiastical Household, which followed the Court wherever it went. One of its locations was at the present Chapel Royal in the royal residence of St James's Palace, begun in 1531, and the main choral centre has been there since Queen Anne moved the Court to St James's from Whitehall Palace.
The Bishop of London is Dean of the Chapels Royal.

Year in Review: The 10 Worst Movies of 2009
2009 Year In Review By Kevin Carr on December 31, 2009 | Comments (26)To do this year's bottom of the barrel justice, we put our resident lover of all things bad Kevin Carr to work, to find the absolute worst movies of 2009
Rob Hunter loves movies. He also loves working for the local "retirement home" as head geezer catcher… basically he gets a call whenever one of the elderly residents escapes wanders off in a daze from the home. These two joys come together in the form of cash money payments that he receives every week and immediately uses to buy more DVDs. This week… Up, The Merry Gentleman, Spread, and more!

BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.
In the HM , just to scare people , our family will scream as loud as we can right when the projection of the window comes on ( and let me tell you , we've scared alot of people by doing it!! )

I will go on , no matter what , still dedicated all the way through
I'll live my dreams the same way I do my life , by taking one step at a time
Por favor mantanganse alijado de las puertas.
one of my sister and I jokes came from this past feb. we were going on splash mountain at night and it was actually pretty warm
but she whined and cried (not literally, but close) she did NOT wanna go on she was so scared of the big drop, and she was so freaked out, she's 27, and she's been on it. so i was laughing and couldnt believe this sight, but eventually i convinced her to go on, and i scared the **** out of her on the first drop, saying HERE IT COMES!!!! and she clung on to me, i thought she was going to rip my arm off, but then the big drop FINALLY came and BOOM, we took the plunge, and then she said the line that made me so mad, yet laughing hysterically, That's IT?! i didn't know weither to laugh or cry, so pretty much after every ride i always say to her, that's it?
and another, we got stuck in the graveyard for 25 min in the HM, and i posted this part somewhere else, but we took some really funny pictures of us being really scared, but totally faking it, it was really funny, but then this past july we went again (YESSSS!) and first ride we got on, during a VERY boring, dreary day, when we got there, first ride we got on, SE, broke down, as usual, but at the caveman scene, and i swear i learned caveman from that repeating audio. but we took pictures of us being scared, but cavemen with loin cloths in the background. so whenever a ride breaks down, we take funny pics. you'd have to be there. haha if your still reading this, you have comitment.
fave JC joke: everything here is LARGER than life...(it took me a few trips around the world to get that one haha)
- In the HM , during when you're looking down at the ball room , scream : be quiet or were all gonna die!
I believe
I believe in believing - until my very last minute of truth , I don't give up . even when it will be hard to see it through
I will go on
I will go on , no matter what , still dedicated all the way through
I'll live my dreams the same way I do my life , by taking one step at a time
Haha..that was what that man said in the backround..his voice sounded like one of the people trying to scare the children..Yeah i scream then too..maybe i should scream later so i can finally hear that amazing Impression..
Wow..Jake saying that line..haha..now i am crying again..great..
But yes i love screaming then and see all the kids turn around not knowing what is going on! WOO HOO..great time woo hoo hoo..
He won't win the MVP or be voted into the Hall of Fame........then again, some heroes don't play games.
On the contrary, Bri--the Shaggy impression has the polar opposite intention of scaring kids. I explained the reasons for this madness a couple pages back. One of my first posts around this place, come to think of it........
For those of you with the patience to sit down and enjoy the Norwegian film (and at the very least, I'd imagine any red-blooded male would if only for the sake of the trio of Scandanavian goddess ballerinas in the final montage), here's one for the very beginning of the presentation. While the young boy is gazing up to the old Viking longboat, and we flashback to the raiders about to take to the sea, declare in a good announcer's voice "Previously, on NORWAY........."
(Not too loud, though. Just enough to be sort of a private joke between you and your party members, and maybe the good folks in the seats within earshot.)

If you are a filmmaker (or an industry professional) on the cutting edge of your profession with ideas that would benefit the filmmaking community, you are welcome to submit an article to Filmmaking Stuff.
What We Seek
Your article should contain at least three useful tips that filmmakers can put to use in their next projects. And aside from being useful, your article should contain the following:
1. Original content – Google hates rehashed articles and so do we. Make sure whatever you submit is at least 80% different than anything you submitted elsewhere.
2. Make it simple – If you're explaining technical stuff, make sure you don't get too nerdy. Or if you do get nerdy, make sure you include some pictures or graphs to explain what you mean.
3. Own the copyright – One time someone actually stole our writing and republished it. If we suspect your article was stolen from somewhere else, we will investigate.
4. Avoid blatant sales pitches. Your article should be 95% informative. However, at the end of your article, you are welcome to have a bio and one call-to-action.
5. Know what you are talking about. For example, if you are a boom operator, please DO NOT submit an article on directing. It won't be taken seriously.
Compensation (or not.)
1. You DO NOT get paid for a guest post. Your benefit is recognition on a popular filmmaking website. If you do not value exposure, then we are not a good fit.
2. Seriously. You should only write a guest post because you would benefit from getting your name in front of filmmakers who otherwise don't know you.
If this sounds OK, submit your article below:

Beyond those "Boogie Nights" and the rise of video, internet porn has really been putting the lick in click. Still, there seems to be something missing from porn — good old-fashioned making out. Susan Walsh asks: "Is Porn Changing The Way We Kiss?" Sucking face is an essential part of lovemaking, baby! So, we decide to ask Joanna Angel, the punk rock porn star and female founder of BurningAngel.com, why there isn't a lot of kissing in porn. Keep reading »

[620] HER2 Protein Over-Expression in Proximal and Distal Gastric Cancers: An Immunohistochemical and Clinicopathological Comparison Study of 957 Cases.
Xiang Shan Fan, Jie Yu Chen, An Ning Feng, Hong Yan Wu, Jason S Gold, Qin Huang. Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Jiangsu, China; VA Boston Healthcare System and Harvard Medical School, West Roxbury, MA
Background: Gastric cancer is the second most common cause of cancer death in China. Despite advances in treatment, the outcome for advanced gastric cancer remains poor. HER2 gene amplification and over-expression, which represents a potential therapeutic target, was recently reported in 10-40% of gastric cancers. The relative expression of HER2 in proximal and distal gastric cancers remains unknown. The aim of this study was to compare HER2 expression and its correlation with clinicopathological variables between proximal and distal gastric cancers in Chinese patients.
Design: We retrospectively reviewed a prospectively acquired pathology database for gastric cancer resections with HER2 immunostain results over the period from January 2007 through August 2009. We identified 957 consecutive cases including 513 proximal and 444 distal gastric cancers. HER2 immunoreactivity was scored on a 0-3 scale, according to the ToGA study criteria. Correlations between HER2 expression and clinicopathological variables were sought. Chi-square and Spearman correlation tests were used to assess significance.
Results: HER2 expression in both proximal and distal gastric cancers was significantly higher in the Lauren intestinal type (p<0.001) and grade 2 (p<0.001) gastric cancers as compared to the Lauren diffuse type and grade 3 tumors, respectively. In distal gastric cancers, HER2 expression was significantly higher in stage IV (p<0.001) and in patients with distant metastasis (p<0.001). No statistically significant difference was found in HER2 over-expression between proximal (11% score 3, 25% scores 2 and 3) and distal (8% score 3, 18% scores 2 and 3) gastric cancers (p=0.08).
Conclusions: The rate of HER2 over-expression was similar between proximal and distal gastric cancers. HER2 over-expression significantly correlated with the Lauren intestinal type and grade 2 tumors in the entire series, and with distant metastasis and stage IV in distal gastric cancers only.

An affirming gay Christian (GLBT) site dedicated to ... "Building (ALL) the Body of Christ in Love!" |
Bill Johnson |
When Heaven Invades Earth is a powerful statement and testimony on the Kingdom of God. Theologically sound, well supported, and extremely well argued, this message provides a carefully constructed biblical foundation for the average Christian to live and walk in the miraculous, supernatural power of God. Not only is the supernatural possible, it is also our commission. The Great Commission that Christ gave to the Church challenges us and makes us responsible to rise up to this supreme supernatural calling. Johnson shows you how you are called to dominion in the earth through the divine rule of God. |
Amazon reader review: In his recently
published book, THE SUPERNATURAL POWER OF A TRANSFORMED MIND: ACCESS TO A
LIFE OF MIRACLES (hereafter, SPTM), Bill Johnson picks up where Oral
Roberts's thirteen-week devotional, A DAILY GUIDE TO MIRACLES AND
SUCCESSFUL LIVING THROUGH SEED-FAITH (Tulsa: Pinoak Publications, 1975)
left off in teaching us how to become God's instruments for manifestations
of the miraculous today. The revered Chinese evangelist, Watchman Nee's
classic work, THE NORMAL CHRISTIAN LIFE (Tyndale House, 1977) also comes
to mind because of the frequent use of the phrase 'normal Christian life'
throughout SPTM. |

3. Retrieve an item from the Repository?
Because the libraries' collections continue to grow, some items are now housed in the Repository, an offsite storage facility. Anyone can make a request to retrieve a book from the Repository regardless of their affiliation with the University of Georgia. After you locate your material in GIL, look at the location information on the record. If it says "Repository," scroll to the bottom the page and click on Material Request Form under "Need Material from the Library Repository?" Fill out the form and submit it. Repository retrievals take one to two business days, and are not made on Saturdays or Sundays. If you are not affiliated with the University of Georgia, you can contact Access Services and they will retrieve the item for you. You can reach them by phone at (706)542-3256, or via email.
4. Find Pandoras and other information about UGA, including UGA football?
We have copies of Pandoras (the University's yearbook) dating back to 1886 (although scattered copies may be missing). Pandoras are not available for checkout, but they can be browsed in the library. Check the GIL catalog for the call number and location. For other information about UGA's history, contact the UGA Archives at Hargrett Library at (706)542-7123, or search the GIL catalog under the heading "University of Georgia." For football history, contact the Athletic Department, or visit the University of Georgia Archives. If you wish to find books on the subject of UGA Football, search GIL under the subject heading "Georgia Bulldogs (Football team) History."
5. Use Netlibrary?
Netlibrary is a GALILEO database containing electronic books or e-books. The first time you use Netlibrary, you will need to create a free account. To get to Netlibrary, begin at the library homepage, and click on the letter "N" in the listing of the alphabet near the top of the page. This should bring up a list of all the databases that start with "N." Scroll down until you see the link to Netlibrary. Click on it. If you are off campus, at this point you will need to type your GALILEO password in the "Log In" field.
When you get to the Netlibrary homepage, you'll see a blue link at the top right corner of the page that says "Create a Free Account." Click on this link and fill in the requested information. Be sure to make a note of your username and password because you'll need them to access your account in the future. You should then be able to use Netlibrary to read e-books.
To find electronic books that are not stored in Netlibrary, click here.
6. Find obituaries and old newspapers?
Unfortunately, Remote Reference cannot perform obituary lookups for patrons. However, UGA Libraries do have a vast collection of Georgia newspapers on microfilm which patrons may use to obtain copies of obituaries. To find a specific Georgia newspaper check the official Georgia Newspaper Project Microfilm Holdings site.
To view the microfilm, you may visit the Main Library, or you may be able to borrow the microfilm through Interlibrary Loan at your local library. Alternatively, you can purchase copies of entire reels from the Georgia Newspaper Project for $35 a reel. We also provide a list of Independent Genealogical Researchers for Hirewho will do lookups for a fee.
7. Look at UGA salary information?
There are two sources for the salaries of University of Georgia employees. You can use the Report of the State Auditor Salary and Travel Supplement to look up salary information by an individual's last name.
A paper copy of the supplement is also kept at the Main Library Reference Desk. To access salary information organized by university department, you will need to use the UGA Budget, which is kept at the Reserves Desk of the Main Library.
8. Use Endnote or Refworks?
Bibliographic management software packages such as Endnote and Refworks allow researchers to organize and store their references from a variety of sources and to easily create bibliographies and footnotes for projects, articles, and reports. More information on using these bibliographic management tools with UGA Libraries' electronic resources, including GIL and many of the GALILEO databases, is available online. To get more information or to set up personalized training for either Refworks or Endnote, click here.
Virginia Benjamin, the libraries' Faculty Liaison and Endnote/Refworks expert, can be reached at (706) 542-0683 or via email.
9. Borrow items if I am not affiliated with the University of Georgia?
If you are not affiliated with UGA, but would like to borrow materials from our libraries, you will need to contact the Interlibrary Loan Department of your public or academic library. Your library will request the material from us and they will apprise you of any fees for services. Please ask your library about fees (if any) as these vary from library to library.
Please note that many regional libraries have agreements that allow their patrons to purchase a guest borrower card that gives them limited borrowing privileges at the UGA Libraries. Please see the Access Services main page for more information.
10. Find UGA dissertations?
All print dissertations are stored in the Repository, an off-site storage facility. Repository retrievals usually take one full business day. Please see above for information about how to request a Repository retrieval. In 1999, the University of Georgia Graduate School began accepting theses and dissertations in an electronic format. Since the Fall semester of 2001, the Graduate School has required that all theses and dissertations be submitted in electronic format. These documents can be viewed in the Electronic Theses and Dissertations database in GALILEO. Please note that there may be a significant delay between the time a student submits his or her thesis or dissertation, and the time it appears in the GIL catalog and/or University of Georgia Electronic Theses and Dissertations database.
Most theses and dissertations can be viewed by anyone. To find the Electronic Theses and Dissertations Database, go to the library homepage and click on the "E" in the listing of the alphabet near the top of the page. Scroll down until you see the link to the Electronic Theses and Dissertations Database.
Please note that some electronic theses and dissertations can only be read while on the University of Georgia campus. If the thesis or dissertation you wish to read has been specified on-campus only by the author, please make an Interlibrary Loan request for the item through your local or academic library. For more information about theses and dissertations, see this page.
Please contact Remote Reference with any questions. You can reach us by phone at (706)542-3251, or via email.

Judie Lynn Hoffman Pleads Guilty in U.S. Federal Cour
The United States Attorney's Office announced that during a federal court session in Billings on August 3, 2010, before Chief U.S. District Judge Richard F. Cebull, JUDIE LYNN HOFFMAN, a 51-year-old resident of Richey, pled guilty to theft of government money and willful acts affecting a personal financial interest. Sentencing has been set for November 4, 2010. She is currently released on special conditions.
In an Offer of Proof filed by Assistant U.S. Attorney Carl E. Rostad, the government stated it would have proved at trial the following:
In 2009, HOFFMAN was a Program Technician for the Farm Service Agency (FSA) in Glendive (Dawson County FSA Office).
Between September 17, 2009, and October 1, 2009, while employed with FSA, HOFFMAN destroyed a relevant portion of a Request for Loan Deficiency Payment Agreement (CCC-633 EZ) submitted by her producer husband in order to increase their USDA durum wheat deficiency payment. As a result, the HOFFMANS' farming corporation received a total of $14,680 in federal funds to which it was not entitled.
HOFFMAN admitted that she destroyed five or six CCC-633 EZ forms for JH Farms Incorporated, the family farming operation, so they would receive a higher loan deficiency payment (LDP). When a producer submits the CCC-633 EZ form, the date of the submission, or filing date, sets the rate of, or "locks-in," the federal deficiency payment based upon the market on that day.
On September 17, 2009, a fellow FSA employee overheard HOFFMAN on the telephone with her husband, discussing how to send a fax from their home. Shortly thereafter, the employee observed that Page No. 2 of CCC-633 EZ for JH Farms, Inc. arrived on the FSA fax machine. Item No. 24, the LDP Rate, on the form was blank, but the employee had looked up the county price for durum for that day and saw that it was $3.98. Since the rate is "locked in" when the form is submitted, JH Farms, Inc. was locked in at the LDP rate of $0.55 a bushel for his durum.
The employee had not removed the LDP request from the fax machine. A short time later, a Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) employee brought the form to the FSA office and asked who it belonged to. HOFFMAN told the NRCS employee that it belonged to her.
The following week, a producer and friend of HOFFMAN's husband, asked HOFFMAN if her husband had locked in his durum rate yet. HOFFMAN said "No." After hearing that, the FSA employee referred to above became suspicious as she knew she had seen the LDP request on the fax machine. After work, she looked on HOFFMAN's desk and could not find the CCC-633 EZ for JH Farms, Inc. Around the last week of September 2009, HOFFMAN's husband was in the FSA office, and was asked if he had locked into the LDP rate. He said "No."
On October 1, 2009, the FSA employee again overheard HOFFMAN on the telephone. HOFFMAN made a comment to the effect that she would go down to the fax machine and get it. The other FSA employee hurried to the fax machine and saw Page No. 2 of a CCC-633 EZ for JH Farms, Inc. arrive on the fax machine with the LDP rate blank. The date appeared to have been altered. The FSA employee knew the county price for the day was $2.98, which locked in the LDP rate at $1.55 per bushel, $1 a bushel higher than on September 17, 2009. The employee left the form on the fax.
On October 6, 2009, the FSA employee reported the incident to the County Executive Director (CED). The CED found several LDP request folders in his "in" basket for several producers, including HOFFMAN's husband. The CED placed a sticky-note on the JH Farms file that read, "needs DD approval." The CCC-633 EZ (Exhibit 2) date stamped October 1, 2009, showed the county price/LDP rate as $2.98/$1.55.
On the morning of October 7, 2009, HOFFMAN entered the CED's office and picked up the LDP files, and as soon as she saw "needs DD approval" on the JH Farms folder she quickly placed all the files back in his box, making some comment that she could not find what she was looking for. The CED later discovered that HOFFMAN had already dispersed the JH Farms LDP payment. FSA policy states that the CED approves the LDP requests prior to money dispersal.
On October 9, 2009, the CED and the District Director for FSA, confronted HOFFMAN. They explained that another FSA employee had seen and observed HOFFMAN's actions with regard to the two forms. A copy of the FSA fax log showing that a fax had been sent from HOFFMAN's fax number on the evening of September 16, 2009, and asked her what had been faxed to the FSA office. HOFFMAN denied any knowledge. The DD expressed her concern that Page No. 2 of HOFFMAN's husband's CCC-663EZ received by FSA on October 1, 2009, was his second request and that it had originally been received on the fax machine by FSA on the morning of September 17, 2009. Again, HOFFMAN indicated that she had no idea what they were talking about.
The DD reminded HOFFMAN of the conflict of interest rules in the personnel manual, that HOFFMAN was not authorized to work on her husband's program files, and that it was to immediately cease. HOFFMAN indicated that she had seen and was aware of the conflict of interest policy. HOFFMAN later entered her office, shut the door, and told her that she shredded the first LDP request. HOFFMAN told her that she and her husband had a new fax machine, and that her husband had told her that he faxed it, but the fax machine gave him an error message, so when she never found it on her desk, she thought it had never come through on the fax. HOFFMAN told the DD that she processed the new CCC-633 EZ request faxed on October 1, 2009, and then found the first request from September 17, 2009, and shredded it.
During the investigation, investigators retrieved the HOFFMAN's FAX transmittal log and discovered that they had successfully faxed nine documents to FSA between September 15, 2009, and October 1, 2009. HOFFMAN then admitted, and provided a handwritten voluntary statement, that on September 17, 2009, as well as on four or five other occasions, that she destroyed Page No. 2 of a CCC-633 EZ for JH Farms, Inc., that her husband had faxed to FSA. HOFFMAN was not sure why she destroyed the first fax but admitted to destroying the other four or five faxed CCC-633 EZ forms because she knew she could get a better price for her husband. HOFFMAN acknowledged that she knew the conflict of interest policy that stated employees are not to participate in government matters when family members are involved. She previously processed her husband's payment because she believed she wasn't doing anything wrong and claimed the incident was her first violation.
HOFFMAN said that her husband faxed the CCC-633 EZ forms at night, and in the morning she destroyed the fax she received after she determined the LDP rate was higher for the day. HOFFMAN claimed that she told her husband that the faxes were not coming through to the FSA office.
HOFFMAN faces possible penalties of 10 years in prison, a $250,000 fine and at least 3 years supervised release.
The investigation was conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture - Office of Inspector General.
