Kitchen Dancing
Cooking all day is hard work. The floors are concrete, the kitchen is hot, grease and food splatters get on your clothes and your hands seem to always maintain a faint smell of garlic. My love of fashion and my background in dance have given me a different twist on how to strengthen my body and preserve my sense of style.
Dance sneakers are my go-to shoe for kitchen work. Thick heel and toe cushioning softens the constant pounding my feet take from working on concrete. And, the break in the sole of the shoe allows my feet to move freely. It makes it easy to add a short series of plie, relevee, tendu while working.
Thinking Outside The Recipe Box
The other day I was given 10 lbs of organic apricots. Given the hot humid weather, the first thing that came to mind was a cooling summer soup. I didn't have a recipe, so I played with the flavor combinations in my head before I put together my soup. As the newly created recipe was unfolding, I tasted and adjusted. The end result was a soup that was cooling, lightly sweet with a slight bite of heat from green chili oil and finished with tart orange zest and chocolate balsamic. I call this "Cooking From The Right Side Of The Brain". It is something I do intuitively, but I can teach you how to do. I will be starting cooking classes on Wednesday evenings beginning July 23rd 6:00 – 7:30. $25 a class. You must preregister.

First Day in the New Kitchen
Our first day in the new kitchen. Food never looked or tasted so good. It made us jump for joy!
Fridays at BadSeed Market
Making dishes to sell on Fridays at BadSeed Market are a chance for me to play in the kitchen. The "play time" leads to some of my favorite ideas. And the customers seem to agree, as I sell out quickly and get repeat customers returning each week for more.
This week garlic scapes made it into my pizza and veggies dishes. I love the clean bite of garlic. Beets are in season and this week I couldn't resist the golden beets for my beet and kale salad! Organic broccoli, kale, scapes and cilantro created a raw medley of cruciferous vegetables. Add a splash of lime – delish!

the kitchen is finished! next – the RHP coffee bar!
canihaveabite is in The Pitch!
the seeds of canihaveabite began long ago….
I've been moving and packed away in a box were the seeds of canihaveabite. Restaurant reviews I wrote in the late 80′s and early 90′s and awards and reviews I received for my Vegetarian cafe Daily Bread. Fun memories!

The heart of a Katu village is its communal house. Bao Dan visits Vietnam's Truong Son Mountains to report on these special buildings.
People of the Katu ethnic group live in Vietnam's northern Truong Son mountain range. Their communal houses, or gươl, form the heart of a Katu village. Inside these houses, the cold and loneliness of the jungle is mitigated. All of the community's ritual activities take place inside this house or around the sacrificial that stands out front.
Hopes and dreams.
Representing the villagers' hopes and willpower, the gươl is a symbol of the powerful community. Located in a position, this is where village elders make key decisions. Following respectful sacrifices and ceremonies, the community house is built under the guidance of experienced village elders. All of the materials come from the forests, from tall wooden columns to the small rattan stems that are used to tie everything together. The house is the pride of the community and also a reflection of the strength and position of the village.
The houses take different forms, depending on the position and wealth of the community. However, their design follows a set of strict rules. A main, round column stands in the middle of the house to symbolize the Rice Mother. Twelve smaller columns stand around this central column. The walls slope like the sides of s boat and are decorated with legendary T'ring birds at the peak of the roofs.
Katu people explain the strange shape of the gươl in many ways. It is said that the house resembles a buffalo lying beside a sacrificial pole. The peak of the roof represents the buffalo's spine and the rafters its ribs. The gươl is likened to a mother buffalo with surrounding houses compared to baby buffalos. Buffalos play an important role in the lives of the Katu people.
The communal house's strange shape is also compared to the legendary T'ring bird. This special building is reserved for the spirits and the "souls of the community" – the much-respect-ed village elders.
The space inside the house is filled with simple decorative motifs, such as flowers, leaves and climbing trees. Other images include a pair of geckos from the legend, a woman dancing the padil yaya (a heaven-offering dance) or a legendary m'nga monster. There are also scenes from daily life, such as men smoking, hunting, beating drums and stabbing sacrificial animals and women pounding rice.
The top of the pole is covered with three layers of patterns representing the world. A buffalo head from the precious sacrifice is hung from the pole and at the foot of the pole stands a vase of cần rice alcohol. Beneath the eaves hang many animal heads, trophies from the villagers' hunts.
A gathering place
After work, young people gather around the fire and listen to tales recounted by the village elders, the gươl serves as a school where each generation learns about their community and its history. This tradition is essential to preserving their culture.
During rituals, the gươl is a meeting place for the spirits. Community members express their wishes to the spirits via the village elders. If there are complaints or disputes among villagers, judgments are made by the village elders in the communal house. In the past, the gươl also served as a fortress where unmarried young men slept to guard the village against invasion.
Similar to the communal house of the Viet people (the largest ethnic group in Vietnam), the gươl is the central point that holds the community together. The gươl is essential to the world view and way of life of the Katu people.

WorldFish's anti-HIV/AIDS and rainforest ornamental fish culture projects win World Bank awards
WorldFish scientists in Malawi and Cameroon have won the World Bank's Global Development Marketplace awards for projects that offer cutting-edge solutions to some of the most pressing social and economic concerns of our time
The competition is a World Bank initiative to identify and fund the best and most innovative ideas in development. It promotes innovation through early stage seed funding for projects around the world.
In Malawi, Daniel Jamu's "Adapting Aquaculture to HIV/AIDS-affected Households" project aims to make fish farming a new weapon in the fight against HIV/AIDS. It aims to help households in Malawi combat HIV/Aids through simple and affordable aquaculture. Developed in collaboration with World Vision, Malawi, it is a new approach in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
The project targets poor orphans and widow-headed households struggling with the disease. The project will develop farming methods that can be used by these households to raise fish as a source of nutrition. The households often lack the skills, labor and capital needed for conventional aquaculture. They are also isolated and lack access to producer organizations and markets.
As fish is a rich source of protein, lipids, calcium, vitamin A and micro-nutrients, it will improve the health and well-being of households and hence increase the effectiveness anti-retroviral drugs.
The fish can also be sold to provide a steady cash income to meet medical and nutritional needs, and the fishpond used as bank to raise larger sums to meet emergencies.
The one-year project targets o ne thousand resource-poor households in Chingale, Zomba West, Malawi, and aims to raise their fish production and consumption and income by at least 25 per cent.
" Beyond the lifetime of the project, these activities will also contribute to the development of cross-sectoral rural investment strategies aimed at strengthening the economic base of HIV/AIDS-affected populations," says Daniel Jamu.
The award, worth US$20,000, recognizes that HIV/AIDS is not only a health issue but also a developmental and social issue, and that aquaculture can make an important contribution to supporting the needs and strengths of HIV/AIDS-stricken households.
Malawi is one of the world's poorest countries. Tens of thousands Malawians die of AIDS every year. Limited resources and low fertility of farms are serious problems.

- Proceedings of the "International Workshop responding to HIV and AIDS in the Fishery Sector in Africa" (Zambia, 2006)
- HIV/AIDS in the Fisheries Sector - a brief
In Cameroon, Randy Brummett was awarded US$150,000 to implement a project that will help establish sustainable aquaculture of ornamental fish in the Lower Guinean rainforest rivers and sustain and empower rainforest communities.
"Some 8 million inhabitants of the Lower Guinean rainforest depend upon river ecosystems for their livelihoods," says Randy Brummett. "Increasing population, poverty, and governance arrangements that falsely value biodiversity and disenfranchise local people have led to habitat destruction and over-exploitation, threatening both livelihoods and biodiversity alike."
His "Sustainable Use of African Rainforest Rivers" project aims to develop community-based business models to raise and sell ornamental fish through a multi-stage capacity building program. It will be established in three communities representing about 4,000 to 4,500 inhabitants. It expects to develop commercial aquaculture skills for at least 150 fishers and increase returns to local communities by at least 500 percent.
WorldFish studies have indicated that there is a great diversity of ornamental fish –over 200 species – in African rivers, but low in abundance. The trade in these ornamental fishes is currently dominated by a few middlemen using unsustainable practices that lead to average ornamental fish mortalities of 85 percent. Ornamental fish is valued at some US$1.8 million per tonne in international markets.
WorldFish's Malawi and Cameroon projects are meant as pilots providing demonstration of future opportunities to scale up and replicate in other African countries.

I hate to quote an entire story from another outlet in a blog post, but all 17 words of Scott Wolf's recent entry at Inside USC are worth relaying:
We hear the Seahawks spoke to former USC quarterback Matt Leinart about joining the team next season.
Compelling. And rich.
Leinart would obviously make a hell of a lot of sense in Seattle, mainly — or only — because Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll was his coach at USC. As we all know, Carroll establishes very deep connections with his players, so if anyone's going to give Leinart another chance to compete for a starting job, it'll be him.
But before we get carried away, ESPN's Mike Sando throws water on the Leinart-Carroll fire:
Seahawks coach Pete Carroll has been selective in pursuing his former players at USC. He placed strict conditions on receiver Mike Williams. He quickly released running back LenDale White after determining White wasn't serious enough in his approach. He traded defensive end Lawrence Jackson to Detroit, where Jackson appears to be a much better fit.
Interestingly, talk of Leinart to the Seahawks has picked up at about the exact same time that rumors have arrived stating that the 'Hawks could end up bringing back Matt Hasselbeck, who was considered to be as good as gone last month.
"I think there's now a better than a 50-50 chance that Matt comes back," ESPN's John Clayton told a Seattle radio station. "And you know he wants to come back."
The Seahawks didn't draft a quarterback, which means they're likely to pursue a veteran pivot like Leinart to compete with Hasselbeck and/or Charlie Whitehurst. If Hasselbeck returns, he'll undoubtedly be the starter, but he'll also surely be charged with grooming Leinart and/or Whitehurst for the starting job of the future.
That probably doesn't sound too appetizing to Seahawks fans, who would prefer someone with a higher ceiling. Leinart and Whitehurst have done nothing to indicate that they're potential franchise quarterbacks.
That said, maybe playing for his old college coach will be just what the doctor ordered for the talented lefty from SoCal.

- Color: White - With Tan, Yellow Or Fawn
- Age: Puppy
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
- ID#: Puppy LePew Rescue
Pixie's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Pixie was dropped at a kill shelter. She is 4mths old very sweet and happy now that she is out of the shelter she is working on her house training. She is about 10lbs. She also has no problems with other dogs. She will be spayed before going to her adoptive home. Would you give her a forever home?
If you are interested in adopting this dog PLEASE paste the following link your browser. http://www.poochesonthemove.net/puppy-lepew.html Do this BEFORE emailing for more information. It will answer most of your questions and access an application if you'd like to fill one out.
Other Pets at Puppy LePew Rescue - Londonderry
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Pixie, a Londonderry Jack Russell Terrier puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Jack Russell Terrier for sale in Londonderry, or seeking a Jack Russell Terrier puppy from a breeder in Londonderry.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Londonderry 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 Londonderry 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 Jack Russell Terrier breeders who help with Jack Russell Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Londonderry paves the way for another one to be saved.

The reason for using indices for this purpose is to provide a rapid and standardised method for characterising vulnerability in an overall sense, and identifying issues that may need to be addressed within each of the three pillars of sustainability, namely environmental, economic and social aspects of a country's development. Development is often achieved through trade-offs between these pillars. Therefore, in order to promote sustainability, it has become increasingly important to be able to measure how vulnerable each aspect is to damage and to identify ways of building resilience. With this information to hand, the outcome for countries could be optimised for their unique situations and development goals. Read more
Healthy, productive and protective environments, social systems and economies are the basis of sustainable development and human welfare. The environment is the source of all our raw materials and absorbs the pollution from our activities. In turn, whilst going about our daily business (social and economic) we use the environment and convert its resources and natural services into those that directly support us. The problem is that all of these systems can be damaged, overloaded, or prevented from meeting our needs. By our own choices we can to a large extent determine our own quality of life, the condition of our lands and opportunities for future generations. Environmental Vulnerability is a new way of looking at an age-old problem. Read more
The Barbados Programme of Action (BPoA), Section C5 Vulnerability Index (paragraphs 113 and 114) called for the development of vulnerability indices and other indicators that reflect the status of Small Island Developing States (SIDs) and integrate ecological fragility and economic vulnerability. An emphasis was placed on how such an index and other measures might be used as quantitative indicators of fragility.

15 Department of External Affairs to Watt
Cablegram 30 CANBERRA, 9 January 1946
The Minister has redrafted the note to be presented to the heads of Delegations. [1]
The Minister instructs that the document should be presented by hand wherever possible by one of the Australian advisers. The closest secrecy should be observed, United Kingdom to be included in presentation. The following is the text:-
'The Minister for External Affairs for Australia, The Right Honourable H. V. Evatt, presents his compliments to the Minister for Foreign Affairs of ... (or to the head of the delegation for ...) in connection with the present meeting of the Assembly of the United Nations. The Minister for External Affairs who represented the Australian Government at the San Francisco Conference, regrets that owing to very urgent public business in Australia he is not able to attend the present meeting of the Assembly. He will be in constant touch with Australia's representatives and will take the keenest interest in the whole of the Assembly proceedings.
Dr. Evatt wishes to draw attention to that part of Article 23 of the Charter regarding the relevant considerations for election of nonpermanent members of the Security Council, namely: "The General Assembly shall elect six other Members of the United Nations to be non-permanent members of the Security Council, due regard being specially paid, in the first instance to the contribution of Members of the United Nations to the maintenance of international peace and security and to the other purposes of the Organisation, and also to equitable geographical distribution."
He would call the special attention of the Minister for Foreign Affairs to the claims of Australia for election to the Security Council in accordance with the considerations set out in the Charter. In the first place, as you are aware, Australia has made a very great contribution to victory in both World Wars, and in this War particularly in the air over Europe, in the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern conflicts, and in the fighting in the Pacific which proved to be the turning point against Japan. In the second place, Australia occupies a special geographical position by reason of its situation in the South-West Pacific Area.
The Australian Government would accordingly welcome your support and assistance in affording to Australia the opportunity as a nonpermanent member of the Security Council to carry out the special obligations involved. It is submitted that if Article 23 of the Charter is applied, both in letter and in spirit, no nation has a greater claim to election to the first Security Council than Australia.
Similarly by reason of its contribution over many years in pioneering social and economic legislation, the policies which it has successfully advocated at recent international conferences, and its position in world trade, Australia is willing and able to bear the special responsibility to the Assembly in such matters as will fall to members of the Economic and Social Council.
The Australian Minister for External Affairs would assure the Foreign Minister that the Australian Government looks forward to co-operating with the Government of ...... in continuing at the first Assembly Meeting of the United Nations the work begun at San Francisco and, in particular, in raising the status of the Assembly whose wide powers and general character were assured at San Francisco by the Australian Delegation in conjunction with the majority of the Nations represented there.'

Mildly sweet, not bitter at all, toffee, roasted nuts, coffee and a light bit of smokiness from the chocolate malt......this is going to a one good beer. I think the marris otter and the caramel malt are the key players here. Marris otter makes a huge difference over standard two row When a beer is delicious and perfectly enjoyable after primary with no carbonation..you know you are in for something good.
So how did this actually turn out...since you only gave us the tastings of from the primary? I'm a huge fan of scotch ales and always looking at different recipes!!!
This beer is REALLY good. I just bottled a week ago, after 2 month secondary. I had to try one tonight, and it is carbing up nicely, but is so malty, delicious and smooth. I think the chinook hops are perfect for it. I will brew this beer again for sure. Definetly don't hesitate to try this recipe, or a similar one..it sure turned out nice.
Well, I shared this beer with my friends last night and the consensus is that this beer is worthy of competition entry. I will enter it in a local competition in april after it has had 2 months in the bottle. This beer turned out fantastic! You get big notes of toffee, bread, malt with small background notes of coffee and nutty roasty goodness. The 7.2% ABV does not make itself known until you get a slight tingle going down the back of your throat. The aroma is all malt with a little alcholol detectable. The bubbles/head is very fine and sticks to the side of the glass as you drink it down. I think that is one of my favorite parts of the beer...the carbonation is so fine and foam is so thick... I think my extended secondary fermentation in the mid fifty degree range gives it a lager like smoothness...that is right on for the style. It turned out crystal clear and a very dark amber/brown color. Not black or dark as a porter, but a very nice dark roased brown color. If you like strong scotch ale, or malt forward beers in general this is beer is a big winner.
I'm curious what would be the effect if you secondary at 68-70deg instead of 55. My fridge is a keggerator and I don't think I would want to drink my beer at 55deg for two months while this secondaries but I'm really interested to try the recipe. I would normally secondary at room temp and have never tried a cooler secondary fermentation.
Let us know how you did in the contest!
well? How did you do? Has anyone else brewed this?
Didnt place well...all judges agreed that the beer was great, but should have been entered in different category. Fwh chinook made pnw hops, which are not appropriate for style, too evident. Malt,.head, carbo..etc all good.

Farrah Abraham was one of the stars of MTV's Teen Mom series, having had a baby at age 16 she became one of those reality celebs overnight, and has sort of lingered on the edge of true fame. Over the time on Teen Mom, she has upped her looks, grown into an adult, and gotten a really overdone pornstar style boob job, which is really funny to look at because she is otherwise a pretty scrawny girl with a small tight ass and previous small boobs.
Anyway, in April, 2013, she "secretly" shot a home made style porn video with porn celeb peen James Deen (he made a movie with Lindsey Lohan, where they spent plenty of time in bed, rumor having it that he actually did the nasty with her as well!). Anyway, it was suppose to be a leaked home made video, one of those celeb sex tapes like Kim Kardashian or Pamela Anderson, but instead it all has played out in the media before the tape has even been picked up by any companies, so everyone pretty much knows this is just a straight up porn movie. It could still be an interesting video as her "debut" in porn.

Selecting the Greatest Dumpster Rental Company: What You Should Know
Folks who wish to accomplish a home remodeling job often find themselves calling a dumpster rental company to get rid of a substantial amount of trash. Home remodeling projects are surely plenty of work, and dumpster companies will attempt to help make it easier for the contractor or the homeowner to eliminate their old furniture as well as their trash. The more the garbage will accumulate, the larger the job it. Discovering how to pick the best dumpster rental company is something which is essential for homeowners in relation to home improvement projects.
When people wish to rent a dumpster, they often do not realize how many sizes there are actually. In order for a person to determine which dumpster size will work the best for their landscaping or even remodeling project, they are going to need to find a fantastic dumpster company. They will not make an effort to up-sell a dumpster which is too big for the project. They will not get repeat customers if they do that. The organization will talk about the different dumpster load designs like the side loader, the front loader, and the top loader dumpsters.
To fulfill their customers' needs, a great dumpster company will be ready to work out a pickup date and a delivery date. For many dumpster companies, on the day that the customer requests it, the company will deliver the container. Depending on just how busy they are, though, it might take them another day to deliver the dumpster.
A lot of people will not know very well what size dumpster they have to rent for their home improvement project. The best rental companies will walk their customer through to decide how big of a dumpster they need for their project. They will ask them many questions to figure out what the contents will be. They will ask if it is for a deck project, a landscaping project, or even cleaning out a house or a room. This way, they are able to decide how big the dumpster will need to be.
Additionally, the very best businesses will ask if they're likely to make use of the dumpster for normal trash, like carpet, food materials, and also old furniture. In terms of recycling old materials along with old metals, there are dumpsters which will enable this. This will help keep items out of the landfills. There are a number of categories dumpster companies will go through to establish the right dumpster.
It is important for homeowners to find out how many yards of garbage they'll be throwing out potentially. This is helpful in determining how big of a dumpster someone will need. A great dumpster company can help the customer figure out how much trash is one yard, and then they will determine how huge of a dumpster they have to rent. There are rentals that are 10 yards, and go up to 40 yards. When people are throwing away their trash, they have to determine what loading option they are going to want to have.
Frequently, it is a lengthy process to choose the very best dumpster rental company due to the fact that some companies will overcharge people. The majority of companies want to have customers for life, so they will make sure their customers receive the correct size dumpster for their home improvement project.

My broccoli seedlings are leggy but healthy, and getting enough light now. Can I re-plant them, burying the stem, up to their first set of leaves? I know you can do this with tomatoes.
Also, is two weeks before the last frost the right time to plant outside? |

Broccoli, being a cole crop, can be planted as soon as the soil can be worked. Don't plant it deeper than 1 inch from the root ball and not up to the first set of leaves. It does not grow new roots from the stem like tomatoes. The same for cabbage and Brussels sprouts. |
Ok, valray - here comes the opposite advice, just to confuse you. You can certainly plant cole crops (brassicas) deeper than they were in their pots. And they do grow roots from the stems. You will see this if you have a big old brassica which has fallen over. There will be roots where it has lain on the soil. You can also see this happening if you have a cabbage in the fridge for a long time. Often roots will form around the cut end of the stem. This trait is very useful with overwintering brassicas such as brussels sprouts and purple sprouting broccoli as it increases their stability and helps them deal with the weather. |
g'day valray, if i get lanky leggy brassicas (includes broccolli) of any sort they all get planted deep to give the plant support, my experience is that they often do grow roots up the stem, anyhow least wise it works for me. len |

The University of Illinois extension service says to plant broccoli only slightly deeper than the root ball. |
Last year a few of my brocoli plants fell over and grew roots from where the stem touched the soil????????? not like the original root ball but it def rooted. |
I'm not surprised that there's differing opinions on this. There wasn't a straight answer out there when I did my bit of research. It seemed like it might work - I've observed the roots on bent-over stems as well. Maybe I'll try deep-planting one or two seedlings and see what happens. It will probably be obvious fairly quickly if it's working or not and I'll report back. |

Always planted deep due to low levels of light inside, always worked for me. Always read they will root up the stem. Although around here it isn't even much use growing broccoli in the spring due to our springs where the hot weather comes on pretty quick. Bolts every time, I guess I'll plant again in the fall. |
Oh Flora UK! I got sooo excited when I saw mention of Purple sprouting broccoli...then I saw you are in the UK! pants! for a minute I thought I would find a supply in the USA! anyone in the US know if you can get it? to me it is a superior veg like asparagus, I like all veg, but these are in a class of their own. my dad always refered to broccoli as we commonly know it as calabrese, he didn't rate it, at all, I like it but a bit of the purple sprouting stuff, what I would give... so if you know a source in the US let me know and you can have...? oh! I know! my first born son! he's 4 barely house trained but a keen digger...not always where you want him to but you could work on that... |
valray, I imagine you can set them out now...they like cool weather and it is best that they are not setting in pots any longer than necessary. Plant almost up to leaves if leggy. Also wind can break them off or lean them over if they are sticking up in the air. |
UPDATE: Well it's been over a week since I planted my seedlings deep. They're doing fine so I think it's been successful. The stems would have rotted by now if they were going to, I think. |
yes valray, to gain confidence plant some of your seedling deep, we just planted ours and as always they where leggy plants so as always they are planted deep, and thriving. i realy can't understand why the boffins at a university would say different? might be vested interests involved?? len |
for a minute I thought I would find a supply in the USA! anyone in the US know if you can get it? to me it is a superior veg like asparagus, I like all veg, but these are in a class of their own. Funny you should mention that -- I just got my purple sprouting broccoli seeds in the mail a couple days ago and have them in bags to germinate. I've never eaten it before, but it looked interesting -- nice to know it comes well recommended! I forget the place where I got it (they were cheap but took months to shop), but it looks like Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds carries it -- $2.50 a pack, $12 for a quarter pound. I've ordered from them before and they ship fast and all of the seeds I've ever ordered from them (except Stevia) have had good germination rates. |
Growing season doesn't matter to me; I have a nice LED grow chamber now, so if I'm worried something won't make it, I'll just grow it in pots and take it indoors when it gets too cold. |

Just combine all the ingredients, pat them into pancakes, and cook them on a tava. These spicy potato and peas pancakes are so simple to make, but nothing short of a heavenly treat, especially on a cold rainy day! you can enjoy vatana bateta no rotlo just by itself or with tomato ketchup or green chutney. If you are making this recipe for kids, take care to reduce the spices a bit as this might be a bit too hot for them.

Wycliffe (WYC) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 The song of degrees. I raised mine eyes to the hills; from whence help shall come to me. (I raised up my eyes to the hills, or the mountains; O where shall I find help?/from where help shall come to me.) | 1 I lift up my eyes to the hills-- where does my help come from? |
2 Mine help is of the Lord; that made heaven and earth. (My help is from the Lord; who made heaven and earth.) | 2 My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. |
3 The Lord give not thy foot into moving; neither he nap, that keepeth thee. (The Lord shall not let thy foot slip, or stumble; nor shall he nap, who keepeth thee safe.) | 3 He will not let your foot slip-- he who watches over you will not slumber; |
4 Lo! he shall not nap, neither sleep; that keepeth Israel. (Lo! he, who keepeth Israel safe; shall not nap, or sleep.) | 4 indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. |
5 The Lord keepeth thee; the Lord is thy protection above thy right hand. (The Lord keepeth thee safe; the Lord is thy protection at thy right hand.) | 5 The LORD watches over you-- the LORD is your shade at your right hand; |
6 The sun shall not burn thee by day; neither the moon by night. | 6 the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. |
7 The Lord keep thee from all evil; the Lord keep thy soul. (The Lord shall keep thee safe from all evil; yea, the Lord shall keep thee safe.) | 7 The LORD will keep you from all harm-- he will watch over your life; |
8 The Lord keep thy going in and thy going out; from this time now and into the world. (The Lord shall guard thy coming in, and thy going out; from this time now, and forever.) | 8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. |

The Brain Abundance Opportunity

According to the Brain Abundance website, they're different from other MLM companies in that they provide an "accelerated binary compensation plan" that has the potential to produce large payouts in a short period of time.

All of my young life I had watched my older sister when she was near me at home. Her thick wavy hair was deep golden in color and her skin was so smooth.
She is eight years older than me which means that she was given the task of babysitting me many times as a kid but since we got along very well it was always good.
One day when I was about twelve I was going to take a shower and thought that I was alone upstairs in the house. My sister and her recent husband had a bedroom across the hall from mine but I had not heard her upstairs so I thought I was alone.
Being very naughty, I decided to make my voyage to the bathroom with nothing on and carried my towel on my arm. To my surprise and hers, my sister stepped out of her room as I walked by fully nude with my erect penis standing straight out. She yelped a little and ducked back into her room apologetically and I hurried to the bathroom full of embarrassment and also turned on realizing that my sexy older sister had just been the first girl to ever see my erect penis.
It was a mixed sensation that made me so excited that masturbation was the only reasonable solution. I went on to take my shower and then carefully went back to my room, this time wearing my towel so that if she happened to see me again at least I would be covered up.
I made it back to my room without my sister seeing me in the hall again, rather a relief. However when I had closed my bedroom door I turned to discover that my sister was in my room and sitting on the edge of my bed.
"Why are you in my room?" I asked feeling very nervous, I figured that she was going to give me a talking to about my naked stroll in the hall from earlier.
"I just wanted to explain to you that you shouldn't be ashamed about being naked earlier, I didn't mean to embarrass you it's just that I wasn't expecting my little brother to come bouncing along with no clothes on and sporting a really nice boner…it was really pretty cool to see you like that and I just wanted to tell you privately that it is cool that it happened and that if you ever want to ask me anything about sexual stuff, you can. I would be very happy to help explain."
She smiled at me as I stood there in my towel with my dick now fully hard under it and my silence an obvious give away to the fact that my questions were beyond my vocabulary.
"Looks like somebody is really happy to see me there dude, can we have a better look at that cock?"
I was stunned, my sweet and sexy older sister wanted me to show her my stiff cock and nothing in the world was more exciting to me.
"It's okay, here…let me take that silly towel off you and get a better look at that raging boner my brother has for me there."
She reached over to me and pulled my towel off, suddenly I stood fully naked and slightly damp from the shower with the most hard dick I had ever had in my life.
"Ooh, that's better, she cooed. Why don't you let me take a taste?"
My ears rang in disbelief, taste my dick? I couldn't believe this was really happening.
She grasped the base of my dick and slid to the floor in front of me and before I could respond she had taken most of my hard dick into her very skilled mouth.
I didn't know what to do with my hands so I rested them on her shoulders and stroked her soft hair that lay gently on them.
Her mouth was doing magical work that my hands were not capable of competing with as her tongue slid back and forth under the tip of my penis in slow yet powerful movements.
"If you need to squirt your cum just feel free okay? I will just drink it for you."
My sister was absolutely blowing my mind! Here this gorgeous young female about twenty years old, soft, medium blonde hair that was very thick and a bit wavy, her brilliant green eyes looking lustfully into mine and her impish smile that was even more incredible from this angle.
There she was on her knees in my bedroom sucking my twelve year old dick and she tells me she will drink my cum?! I couldn't even begin to form words to deal with this information, instead I allowed myself to ejaculate my first shared orgasm of my life into the loving mouth and throat of my wonderful older sister. She delicately continued to suck me while squirt after squirt of my cum shot into her mouth.
Each squirt was followed by her dutiful act of swallowing my load and then as my orgasm finally came to it's conclusion, she looked up at me with a sexy smile in her eyes and she kissed my dick as she took it lovingly from her mouth.
"Is that better?" She asked.
"Fuck Sue, I can't believe what you just did, yes…that is way better!"
She continued to smile at me while she slowly stood up and as she leaned to my face and kissed me gently on the mouth, she slid her lips to my ear and whispered.
"Next time it's my turn." And she walked out of my room with a soft and seductive glance back at me over her shoulder.
The door closed and I fell onto the bed in a bit of shock. Next time? Wow, when would that be? I wondered to myself as my dick pulsed back to erection. This time I had no choice but to take hold of it and squeeze off a second batch.
My dick never had such a great afternoon until that day and as fortune would have it.
I was in the midst of shooting my wad as the door opened silently and my beautiful sister stood there watching me masturbate.
"I said next time was My turn Joe…don't waste your efforts on yourself when you can be learning how to please your sister!"
I was more shocked than before as she came in and removed her clothing exposing my young and perverted eyes to the most delightful sight in my life. Her body was even better than my imagination had thought it may be as many times it had starred in my fantasies. Her small breasts were about a 34 c size and her swollen nipples deep tan pink.
Her tummy was a soft slightly tanned shade and though she had recently given birth to my first nephew only months before, her body had bounced back really nicely.
She lead me to the bed and laid down with me.
Her body was on top of mine as she kissed me again with her mouth open and she reached down between us and wrapped her fingers around my hard-on.
Before I could even figure what to do about all of this, she was sliding my dick inside of herself as the most amazingly warm and tight sensation overtook my entire being!
My sister was fucking my hard twelve year old dick and it was even better than any fantasy could come close to.
Even though I was a small kid at that age who was only about four foot ten, my dick had been maturing faster than the rest of me because it had been six to seven inches long since I had turned eleven.
Sue was only about 5 foot 4 and weighed probably 115 pounds so she was not much taller than me at that time. I eventually grew to nearly 6 feet by age 15 but that day I felt like a giant!
She fucked me until I shot off inside of her and then she moved around until she had her pussy in front of my face.
I had never seen a grown pussy in real life before, magazines had been helpful but I had only ever seen a real one that a girl down the street had shown me a few years before when I was seven and she was nine years old.
This however was completely different.
Sue had a soft bush of thick hair that was trimmed into a perfect triangle that pointed down to the place where my eyes were fixed.
"Lick me clean Joey, you need to get all of your cum out of my pussy before my husband finds out what you just did in there."
I was again unable to find words but did what she asked and licked her beautiful pussy that was dripping with my cum.
I had never tasted my cum before but as I was faced with her sexy snatch with it's delicately trimmed bush, all that mattered to me was that I was in absolute heaven!
I was determined to remove every bit of evidence in order to prevent her husband from finding out that her little brother had shot his load up his sister's pussy.
It didn't occur to me that she had no intention on letting him find out because she would be in trouble for fooling with her under-aged brother but this never crossed my sex starved mind as I licked and sucked madly at her delicious pussy lips and the feel of sliding my tongue into her slice was really exciting.
I got hard again from the excitement and she quickly decided to give me another treat.
She re-positioned herself on me to face my dick and began sucking me while her pussy smothered me in it's soft warmth.
Her asshole was only a split second from my mouth and as my nose was right next to it I couldn't help but breath in the scent of it through my nose. What an awesome smell she had!
I dove my tongue deeper inside her and she sucked me really hard. I came in her mouth again and she began wildly bucking herself against my face in crazed motions that I soon discovered were the motions of her having an orgasm.
I was very proud of myself as she eventually climbed off of my face and kissed me.
"Thanks little brother, that was the best orgasm I've ever had! Even my husband doesn't get me that excited…so glad we sleep right across the hall from each other."
She kissed me again and told me to look forward to more visits like this whenever we would be alone at home from now on.
Believe me; it was the only thing on my young mind for many months to come.
More stories about the continued adventures to follow.

Maurice Hillis' treatise
Liverpool Porcelain 1756-1804 is the winner of the
American Ceramic Circle Book Award for 2011. The tome is a
long-awaited masterwork based on years of exhaustive and thoroughly
documented research, delving into Liverpool's city archives, maps,
letters, church records and other original documents. It examines
both extant pieces in collections and archaeological fragments from
excavations in Britain and North America and confirms (as well as
disproves) theories with scientific analysis.
At last scholars, collectors and ceramic enthusiasts may add
to their libraries a publication that focuses the "blurred identity"
of what used to be attributed to Liverpool and now with near
certainty can be attributed to Liverpool.
Liverpool Porcelain 1756-1804
promises to be the standard reference on the subject for many years
to come.
Among the books reviewed for the Award this year,
The RA Collection of Chinese Ceramics:
A Collector's Vision
by Maria Antonia Pinto de Matos deserves honorable mention for its
addition of significant scholarship to the field.
The other noteworthy publications that were among the finalists for
the Award include Aesthetic
Ambitions: Edward Lycett and Brooklyn's Faience Manufacturing
Company by Barbara Veith,
Famille Verte by Christian Jorg, the exhibition catalog
The Revival of Italian
Maiolica: Ginori and Cantagalli,
and Rörstrand Art Nouveau
Porcelain from Sweden by Bengt Nyström.
The ACC Book Award was established in order to recognize
publications that advance the study of ceramics and promise to
become major references in the field.

Saskatchewan has long been known as the "Bread Basket" of the World" . Its waving golden Wheatfield's, endless sky and diverse natural resources have made it a land of wide open spaces. For immigrants wishing to live in Canada, Saskatchewan, is an ideal location.
It is the middle province of Canada's three prairie provinces. It has an area of 651,900 km² (251,700 mi²) and a population of 985,386 (Saskatchewanians) as of July 1, 2006. Most of its population lives in the southern half of the province. The largest city is Saskatoon with a population of 235,800 (July 1, 2005), followed by the province's capital, Regina (population: 199,000, July 1, 2005). Other major cities (in order of size) include Prince Albert, Moose Jaw, Yorkton, Swift Current, and North Battleford. Historically, from 1872 to 1930 immigrants were attracted to Saskatchewan by the Homestead Act which granted a quarter section or 160 acres to homesteaders if they could 'prove' the land in three years. The immigration pattern resulted in ethnic bloc settlements which include: British, French , German, Dutch, Scadinavian and Ukranian.
Geography & Immigration
Northern Saskatchewan is mostly covered by boreal forest except for The Lake Athabasca Sand Dunes, the largest active sand dunes in the world north of 58°, adjacent to the southern shore of Lake Athabasca. Southern Saskatchewan contains another area with sand dunes known as the "Great Sand Hills" covering over 300 square kilometers. The Cypress Hills, located in the southwestern corner of Saskatchewan and Killdeer Badlands (Grasslands National Park) are areas of the province that remained unglaciated during the last glaciation period. The province's highest point, 1,468 metres (4,816') is located in the Cypress Hills. The lowest point, 213 metres (700') is the shore of Lake Athabasca in the far north. The province has nine distinct drainage basins made up of various rivers and watersheds draining into the Arctic Ocean, Hudson Bay, and Gulf of Mexico.
Note that the list does not include Lloydminster, which has a total population of 24,028 but straddles the Alberta-Saskatchewan border. As of 2001, only 8,118 people lived on the Saskatchewan side, which would make it Saskatchewan's 11th largest municipality. All of the listed communities are considered cities by the province, with the exception of Corman Park, which is a rural municipality. Municipalities in the province with a population of 5000 or more receive official city status.
Immigration Profile
Saskatchewan's booming economy is creating opportunities for employment and investment in all sectors of the province. But our province's most enticing feature is the rich quality of life Saskatchewan residents enjoy.
We have low housing costs and utility rates, which are complemented by the third lowest personal income tax rate in the country. People who move to Saskatchewan claim it is more than just a great place to work - it is an ideal place to call home. Through our provincial nominee program, we can help you through the immigration process so that you can build your future in Saskatchewan.
The Saskatchewan, Community Partnerships and Settlement Unit works with immigrants, refugees, employers, service providers, and communities to ensure a positive immigration experience for all parties. It designs and delivers programs and services such as language training, literacy training, employment services, and orientation services that assist newcomers in making a transition to work and to life in our communities.
The unit also supports efforts by communities, businesses, and employers to help newcomers make Saskatchewan their home through the development of settlement plans. This project is the latest enhancement to the province's immigration program, which will approve approximately 5,000 new immigrants a year by 2008-09.
Economy & Immigration
Saskatchewan's economy is associated with agriculture; however, increasing diversification has meant that now agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting together make up only 6.8% of the province's GDP. Saskatchewan grows 45% of Canada's grain. Wheat is the most familiar crop, and perhaps the one stereotypically associated with the province, but other grains like canola, flax, rye, oats, peas, lentils, canary seed, and barley are also produced. Beef cattle production in the province is only exceeded by Alberta. Mining is also a major industry in the province, with Saskatchewan being the world leader in potash exports. In the northern part of the province, forestry is significant.
The Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) is desined to help business find skilled workers through immigration to Canada, which operates under an agreement with the federal government. It can provide an alternate and quicker means of entry into Canada.
This program allows Saskatchewan to nominate applicants, who qualify under criteria established by the province, to the federal government for landed immigrant status.
The SINP offers:
- The ability to select applicants whose skills and abilities best fit the province's needs
- Consideration of applications that may not qualify under federal immigration criteria
- Application processing times that are faster than other federal immigration classes.
SINP eligibility criteria reflect the specific needs of Saskatchewan's labour market and economy. The SINP currently has seven categories for nomination: Skilled Workers, Family Members, Long Haul Truck Drivers, Health Professions, Entrepreneurs, Foreign Students, and Farmers.
Oil and Natural Gas production is also a very important part of Saskatchewan's economy. Oil and natural gas production is only exceeded by Alberta. Heavy crude is extracted in the Lloydminster-Kerrobert-Kindersley areas. Light crude is found in the Kindersley-Swift Current areas as well as the Weyburn-Estevan fields. Natural gas is found almost entirely in the western part of Saskatchewan, from the Primrose Lake area through Lloydminster, Unity, Kindersley, Leader, and around Maple Creek areas.
Saskatchewan is also the world's most important supplier of uranium, and supplies much of the western world's supplies. The uranium industry is closely regulated by the provincial government which allows the government of Saskatchewan great latitude in setting world uranium prices.
The chart above shows the breakdown of Saskatchewan's economic sectors.
Saskatchewan has the same form of government as the other Canadian provinces with a Lieutenant-Governor (who is the representative of the Crown in Right of Saskatchewan), premier, and a unicameral legislature.
The current premier of Saskatchewan is New Democrat Lorne Calvert, whose government was re-elected in the 2003 election with a slim majority -- the NDP won 30 seats in the 58-seat Legislative Assembly, while the Saskatchewan Party won the remaining 28 seats. Most NDP MLAs represent cities and towns while most SP MLAs represent rural ridings. Partly because of this the NDP's three long stretches as the provincial government have not translated into recent federal success. While both Saskatoon and Regina(Saskatchewan's largest cities) are roughly twice the population of an urban riding in Canada, both are split into multiple ridings that blend them with rural communities.
Education & Immigration
Those considering immigration to Saskatchewan can take advantage of their world class post seconday education institutions. Postsecondary education in Saskatchewan is delivered through two publicly funded universities and their federated and affiliated colleges; the Saskatchewan Institute of Applied Science and Technology (SIAST), with institutes in four locations; eight regional colleges that broker programs offered by the universities and SIAST to communities throughout the province; the Saskatchewan Indian Institute of Technologies; the Saskatchewan Apprenticeship and Trade Certification Commission (SATCC); and approximately 50 private vocational schools.
The University of Saskatchewan has one federated college - St. Thomas More College - and seven affiliates - St. Andrew's College, the Lutheran Theological Seminary, Central Pentecostal College, St. Peter's College, the College of Emmanuel and St. Chad, Briercrest College, and the Gabriel Dumont Institute of Native Studies and Applied Research.
The University of Regina has three federated colleges -- Campion College, Luther College, and First Nations University of Canada (formerly known as the Saskatchewan Indian Federated College) and two affiliates -- the Canadian Theological Seminary/Canadian Bible College and the Gabriel Dumont Institute of Native Studies and Applied Research.

Hi there, We moved recently and the last tenants here were not exactly gardeners. There are a few ill-kept shrubs and I'm working on my garden plans for spring. This shrub is the only one that is currently bearing leaves and it is in pretty bad shape (read: pretty darn ugly). It was covered with vines from a next-door-neighbor's plant until this morning. I uncovered it and now I'm trying to decide if I want to keep it or just tear it out. The details: Portland area, Oregon, USA. More photos (copy and paste the URLs into your browser to view): This is my first post, so thanks in advance for your help, garden experts! |

Abu Dhabi: The UAE stock markets rallied on Monday tracking the US stock index futures which indicated the Standard & Poor's 500 Index will gain for a third day, due to a general improvement in the situation in Egypt and in anticipation of robust fiscal second quarter earnings of local bluechip companies.
UAE stock markets register gains
Shares rally on hopes of robust Q2 earnings of local bluechip companies
In Dubai, the DFM index rose 2.64 per cent, closing at 2,340.59, while the Abu Dhabi Security Exchange's general index rallied 1.79 per cent to end the day at 3,645.04.
Sharia-compliant mortgage lender Tamweel said its shareholders had approved the company's delisting from the Dubai stock exchange, paving the way for its acquisition by Dubai Islamic Bank (DIB).
DIB had said in January that it planned to acquire all of Tamweel, in which it owned 58.2 per cent, through a share swap agreement which would see each Tamweel shareholder offered 10 DIB shares for every 18 Tamweel shares held.
Tamweel said a majority of shareholders had accepted DIB's tender offer to acquire the remaining shares; it did not give detailed figures.
Main gainers
As many as 188.44 million shares, cumulatively valued at Dh312.1 million, were traded on the Dubai stock market on Monday, with Emirates NBD's stock emerging as the day's main gainer. The bank's stock rallied 6.3 per cent to close at Dh4.89. Other stocks which gained included DFM which surged 4.6 per cent and real estate major Emaar whose shares closed 0.56 per cent higher at Dh5.41.
Hits Telecom was the day's main loser, its stock fell 2.18 per cent to Dh0.851.
On the Abu Dhabi market, 197.68 million shares cumulatively valued at around Dh369.76 million changed hands on Monday, the rally being primarily driven by real estate, banking and investment and financial services stocks. Around 110 million shares of Abu Dhabi's real estate major Aldar Properties were traded on the market, cumulatively valued at Dh253.23 million. Aldar's stock rallied 4.91 per cent, closing at Dh2.35. National Bank of Abu Dhabi was also among the day's gainers, its stock closing 4.35 per cent higher at Dh12.
Green Crescent Insurance Company was the main loser on the Abu Dhabi market, its stock ending 4.96 per cent lower at Dh1.15.
