[mikel relleke] - A mountain. The riddle refers to one object.
[neil christopher perrett] - Luke daly....time.
[mike jardine] - Alas mountains can grow
[edie galindo] - Gollum's "teef"? Oh no, never mind. ;)

[daniel carswell] - Mountains do grow though don't they? (tectonics)
[andy williams] - A mountain, my preciousssss...
[roberto cook] - most mountains grow
[nathaniel djatomic jackson] - Roots = lava tubes
Up up it goes = lava erupting

Taller then trees = the mountain top
Therefore answer is a volcano
[andy hensman] - I'm pretty sure the correct answer is "a mountain"

[hitaro matsimoto] - Guys comments about your dicks only prove how immature and sad you are learn to talk like adults... These books are for mature individuals
[andy mccullough] - For the pedantic idiots, you've got to work on your pedantry - since this is a riddle in Middle Earth, plate tectonics may not have been in force in the Third Age, as the world had only relatively (in global terms) recently been bent to prevent access to the West. As a rule, eagles don't talk either. If you're going to be pedantic, you've got to be accurate...
[luca samios] - Mountainses my precious!!!

[remco flik] - Ist not a mountain mountains do grow
[ivan leal] - tolkien drawing, fantastic
[simon gifford] - I'd say Mountain but mountains can grow taller?
[noone knowsme] - I wish i could have been peering over his shoulder as he drew this...
[panda o'vanston] - Mountains, reason: mountains do not "grow".
[bill mcilwain] - any mountain zachary
[rachael halson] - I think the sky... Mountains do grow
[christopher lamb] - Actually to "grow" is to just increase in size by natural processes. Seeing as how mountains can get taller by the movement of tectonic plates, a natural process, the do "grow". But this was also in reference to characters from Middle Earth...so they would have no clue about that :)
[simon gifford] - Mountains can grow if the plates push against each other. India is pushing against Asia, so the Himalayas are "growing". Hardly visible to the eye though.
[ron ward] - What...has it gots...in its NASTY LITTLE POCKETSES!?!
[michael james mcgary] - Riddles in the dark
[jonathan poundall] - Stupid hobbitses

[john enright] - 30 white horses on a red hill.First they chap then they stamp then they stand still.(Bilbo)
[mattias sejer frausing] - MOUNTAINS!!!!!!!!!!
[amy georgina wood] - Why get all technical. Its mountain. Its just a riddle. Lol
[damian Żukowski] - John Enright - teeth :P
[heather macdonald] - What have I got in my pocket?
[dawn stafford] - A mountain ( the lonely mountain)
[jim castile] - Didn't he ever take a geology class?
[panda o'vanston] - I am pretty sure that Tolkien himself knew about tectonic movements in the earth! However, he uses the word "grow" in a riddle to throw the reader off a little but then he uses it in a way that makes sense because he doesn't mean "grow" as in how a tree would grow! Ergo: a Mountain does not "grow" in that sense! Which is the sense that Tolkien would have been thinking in when he wrote the riddle in the first place! :D
You forget: Tolkien would never have written it if he didn't understand the workings of the English language! :P
[elizabeth smith] - Thirty white chestnuts on a hill. First they stamp, then they champ, then that stand still. What am I?
[ariel chojnacki] - Just read that chapter.
[christopher a. lindsay] - The Lonely Mountain
[aaron newell] - Easy! Mountains, I suppose...
[josh samani] - hah! Just passed this picture on my re-read! can't wait for desolation of smaug!
[adam nyman amarouche] - Actually some moutains do grow.
[matthew j harris] - Pterodactyls! Who doesn't love a good story about pterodactyls?
[mark kudlowski] - Easy, my precious. Mountains it is !
[hilde nowak] - Der einsame Berg

[helen mcgee] - lol i love that scene!The Hobbit: What has roots as nobody sees, is taller than trees, up, up it goes, and yet never grows? - 100th Comments
[mary kavanagh] - @Panda O'Vanston: it's highly unlikely that Tolkien knew anything about plate tectonics when he was writing The Hobbit which was published in 1935.
The theory was just about being accepted in geological circles in the late 60's. And it took until well into '70's for it to be widely known to the general public. At that time don't forget there were very few computers and no internet as we know it today.
[trevor new] - Middle Earth was created by magic not logic....
[wendi quinn] - A mountain, of course - who asked the question tho' - Gollum or Bilbo? Thirty white horses on a red hill.......
[earl warren] - the lonely mountain
[geoffrey brock lodder] - I believe the answer is mountain
[panda o'vanston] - @Mary Kavanagh: he must have known at least something either way :) but point is being technical about the "growth" of mountains when speaking of Tolkien's riddle is just stupid! :D
[ryan spinks] - Clearly the answer is duck billed platypus

Giving permission to a firm to take payments out of the bank or from a credit card can be a headache for someone on a strict budget.
Millions of consumers have 'continuous payment authorities' as monthly subscriptions to clubs and web sites - but often these payments are snatched out of the bank without warning pushing balances in to overdraft and incurring unexpected costs.
Cancelling these recurring payments is also a problem - especially as nearly half of bank customer advisers give the wrong advice, according to consumer rights champion Consumer Focus.
Researchers found 44% made mistakes or could not give an answer, while, 28% of customers were told they could only cancel the payment through the company that set up the payment, which is contrary to Financial Services Authority guidance.
Businesses like to take these payments because they help cash flow - they are favoured by businesses like payday loan companies, gyms, insurance firms, subscription clubs and internet service providers.
The problem for consumers is the payments are taken on irregular dates and sometimes for irregular amounts, which makes sticking to a budget difficult on tight funds.
If the funds are not in the bank, missing the payment can trigger extra bank charges.
Sarah Brooks, Director of Financial Services at Consumer Focus said: "These are a frequently used but little understood form of payment. Problems with cancellations are leaving consumers going overdrawn or paying for something they no longer want, which is unacceptable. Customers are naturally not experts on this payment method, so it is essential bank staff know the rules and give clear and accurate advice.
"Consumers should be clear that they can cancel a CPA simply by contacting their bank. Ideally the customer should also contact the business involved- but crucially they do not need the company to cancel the CPA for them."
If the bank has given wrong advice that has led to someone paying for something they do not want and incurring charges, the bank must refund the customer and pursue the supplier for the loss.

Schroeder: Certainty gives way to reality at Oregon
Here's a column filed Monday by George Schroeder:
He waded into the fray, pulled players away, tried to prevent tensions from escalating. Yeah, that was LeGarrette Blount, the other night after Purdue's late onside kick.
Playing peacemaker.
Say this for Oregon football 2009: There's no lack of theater. Two games in, the plot line has turned into something far different than anyone expected. We've gone from talking about BCS chances to bowl hopes, period.
But Blount's diplomacy is more than delicious irony. It goes to show that roles change. Growth and maturation occur — sometimes, in a hurry.
With football teams, too.
It's not impossible, the idea that Oregon will evolve over the next few weeks — next few days, the Ducks hope — into something resembling the team most expected to see. Meaning a legitimate Pac-10 contender.
Improbable, sure. The first two games have been a shock to the system, a jarring reminder that expectations often defy reality. And a schedule that seemed set up for a special season suddenly appears daunting.
Getting Cal and USC at home was supposed to be a big deal, but a revised hypothesis says it might have been better if things had been flipped:
Take your lumps in Berkeley and Los Angeles, and get Washington and UCLA, or maybe Stanford and Arizona, at Autzen. Because those are the games that seem winnable.
"We can beat every team we play," tight end Ed Dickson insisted Monday. Click here for the complete column.

I am either WAY out of shape or I severely underestimated the intensity level of the exercise tapes I just ordered.
Either way, I need to get back in shape. My girls are both active and I've stressed the importance of healthy eating and exercise to them. It's now time that Mom walks the walk.
With my semester over, I now have regained a hold back on my schedule. Well, as much as I am going to be a working mom with two busy teenage girls. So I made a commitment to really dedicate myself and get back into shape. It's the only thing that I didn't do after quitting my toxic job last year. My head is clear again and I'm thrilled with the rest of my life. My body, however, seems to have been left in a shattered state, a product of stress eating and no exercise during a turbulant time in my life.
Why is it sooo easy to get out of shape and put on pounds but oh so hard to get in shape and lose the weight? I guess what they say is true; you have to work at it to appreciate it.
OK, so back to my commitment. I consulted my Certified Athletic Trainer (my sister), who advised me that the tapes who be a terrific thing to try. They've been here for about 2 weeks, waiting for me to get on a serious schedule of sleep.
So Saturday comes and I head down to my basement "gym" (formerly the girls' playroom) and start the DVD. OK, not too bad. I am sticking with the instructor and his 3 totally toned minions through the warm up.
I won't give you a play-by-play, but let's just say, when we got to the "push ups with your feet on a chair," I just collapsed into a wet puddle and could do nothing but laugh.
REALLY?? You expect me to do that? On day 1? Where is the "challenged" minion I can follow? You know, the one who is JUST STARTING OUT??
OK, so I push through (modifying this for me).
THEN the group does these moves that make it look like you are a marine diving under a hot wire fence. (Again, I do something different).
But wait. There was more. The AB TAPE. Did anyone tell them I am doing these tapes so I GET toned abs?
If not for anything else, I got my money's worth for these tapes. I just could not stop laughing.
And then I did what anyone else would do.
I called my sister. And she started laughing.
Then she got serious. And made me promise not to stop. Which I promised I won't do.
But, I just had to take a break today.
Since I couldn't put my arms down at their sides until way later tonight. So I guess it is working.
Deep sigh. I hope this gets easier…

Department of Geosciences
Home › Academics › Colleges › College of Engineering and Natural Sciences › Departments and Schools › Department of Geosciences › Programs of Study › Graduate and Professional Programs › Doctor of Philosophy in Geosciences
The principal objectives of the Ph.D. program are to provide students an opportunity to reach a critical understanding of basic scientific principles underlying their fields of interest and to cultivate their ability to apply these principles creatively through training in advanced methods of analysis, research, and synthesis.
The family of Ed Siereveld donated his collection of minerals to the Geosciences Department.
The mineral collection currently being enjoyed by all visitors, students, faculty, and staff in the atrium on the main floor in Keplinger Hall was donated to the Geosciences Department by Arlene Siereveld of Wagoner, Oklahoma, to highlight the work of her late husband, Ed.
Ed was an electrical engineer, educator, and avid rock collector. His enjoyment of the vast collection extended to education. He would have classrooms of school children visit the basement of his home where the collection was always on display.
The specimens come from all over the world, sometimes with the same mineral represented from many different countries, such as the deep green Malachite minerals. There is beautiful blue Lapis Lazuli from Badakshan, Afghanistan and a lovely purple specimen called Charioite – found only in Russia. The collection also features many excellent specimens from the United States.
The collection was cataloged and photographed by Catherine Webster, currently the lab coordinator in the Geosciences Department. She also cleaned and filled the display cabinet with the specimens. There are many more pieces of interest and beauty that will be added to the case in the future.
All specimens are labeled with their name, location, and chemical formula. This information provides opportunities for students to learn more about the world around them. Ed Siereveld would be pleased with the attention his collection receives on a daily basis.
Curriculum Requirements. The Ph.D. program requires 72 approved credit hours of graduate credit above the baccalaureate level, distributed in the following manner:
Students may be required to complete prerequisite undergraduate courses and remove deficiencies without graduate credit which may result in a program of more than 72 credit hours. If approved by the advisory committee (see below), as many as 30 credit hours of course work and research completed in a master's degree program at any accredited institution may be distributed, as outlined above, among the 72 hours of graduate credit. Not more than 12 credit hours of approved doctoral-level courses beyond the M.S. may be transferred from another institution. A GPA of at least 3.3 must be maintained. These requirements are not variable except under special circumstances and with permission of the student's advisor and the Dean of the Graduate School.
Detailed information about the Doctoral program can be found in the Graduate Bulletin.
Students should familiarize themselves with all requirements for the Doctoral degree.

Call for Expressions of Interest - NOW CLOSED
Thank you to all who submitted!

Langscape Contributors Guidelines 3.1 (506 KB)
APA Reference Styleguide:
APA Reference Style (21 KB)
In this issue of Langscape we explore how language, culture, and nature are being integrated in education curricula and the reasons motivating these adaptations. Local education processes shape and influence who we are and the ways we contribute to the knowledge and behavior of global society. What we teach, and how we teach it, differs among education systems and communities and changes over time as societies evolve and incorporate new knowledges. The mosaic of traditional Indigenous cultures and languages around the world provides diverse philosophies that can contribute to the problem-solving skills, growth, and resilience of humanity. A challenge for many cultural communities has been how to retain the foundations of traditional knowledges and languages while gaining beneficial elements of contemporary education. Linking traditional Indigenous perspectives with modern education, for example, requires the involvement of Elders or experienced cultural teachers and land-based activities to provide a context for learners to understand concepts within holistic worldviews. Communicating successes in biocultural approaches to education is important for knowledge exchange among global communities and facilitating advancements in pedagogy.
The next issue of Langscape aims to address the following questions:
- What does a biocultural approach to education mean?
- What educational and societal benefits can we gain from implementing a biocultural approach to education?
- What gaps in education stand in the way of implementing a biocultural approach?
- How are these gaps being addressed or how can they be addressed?>
- Where do we focus to ensure success (policy, curriculum, schools, communities)?
- How can we successfully apply the lessons of traditional Indigenous approaches to contemporary Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal education? What are some examples?

Ok well I have done the damage? Long story short I am in my second marriage on the brink of divorce. Have an 11 yr old daughter from my first marriage. Anyway I met my second husband when she was a year old he's been here ever since. now he wants to divorce because I made him feel like we weren't a family because I didnt give him rights to her if something were to happen to me. I'm not sure what to think about this. |

Have you two discussed this topic before or is this a new topic? Is her father in the picture at all? If he has raised her since she was a year old what is holding you back from letting him become her father by law? |
We have discussed it quite a few times...well I'm afraid that's what holds me back my mother threatens me I get pressure from both sides my husband said I should of done what I thought was right and he was right but instead I shut down. No her father has never been in the picture. I have asked before if he would of considered adoption, but he says I wasn't adopted I don't need rights to her all the time. |
And at the time he asked me to make out a will my ex husband still had parental rights not sure if he does now . it's a complicated situation her father lives in another country |
This makes no sense, your second husband wants to divorce because you won't give him "rights" to your daughter from your previous marriage? What does he mean "rights"? But he won't adopt her? I'm guessing he wants visitation rights in case of divorce, understandable since he's been in your daughter's life since she was a baby, but if he wants that he needs to adopt her. He probably knows if he adopts her, then he's on the hook for child support. Why is your husband asking you to make out a will? Are you wealthy or will you inherit a lot of money? Why are you not sure if your exH still has rights to your daughter or not? You should know if they were taken away or not. |
No all I have is my daughter... no money no assets. I don't know if he still has rights because we had a 2 yr long divorce 1 because he is from England and lives there and haven't heard from or seen him in 10 yrs and I'm not quite sure how the law deals with that. rights to make decisions and become her father by law that's what my husband means by rights to her. Yes I know it's quite confusing. I don't understand what my husband is trying to say |
I also feel my husband is being ridiculous about all of this I have never treated him as if he never belonged or wasn't a father. Ever! I was a step parent in my first marriage. So I do kind of understand but never had issues like this |
Point is I don't want him to go! my daughter loves him to death as do I.... he says it's to late to fix it nothing I can say or do. He has to sort it out on his own. I just needed to talk with someone anyone that's why I am here |
Thanks for the explanation on your exH. You don't understand what your husband means by "rights" to your daughter, and you feel that you have never treated him as if he wasn't part of the family. I don't think it's a matter of you're right and he's wrong or vise versa, it sounds to me like the two of you just don't know how to communicate. If you don't understand what your husband is trying to say you need to ASK him what he means. I'm sorry you're going through this. It sounds like this has been building up for some time and now your husband has reached his breaking point. Your husband must be really unhappy and/or feel things can't be fixed for some reason. You say instead of acting on what you felt was right you "shut down". Is this how you normally handle problems? Is having "rights" to your daughter the only complaint your husband has or are there other things? If your husband was to post on here, what do you think he would say? While this board is good for talking and venting, I don't think talking on here will fix the kind of issues you are having. You are welcome to vent on here, but if you really want to fix your marriage I suggest the two of you go to marriage counseling. |
No we don't and he refuses to talk to anyone. if he were to post on here he would say it was me who did all of this and to a point he is right I really had no idea that he felt this way he let's it build up till it's to late and yes there are other issues which he said werent as important as this one and he could get through it. we just have a lot of growing up to do I didn't want to make the same mistakes in this marriage as I did in the first. But looks like I did. |
And I don't runaway I just don't like to be threatened i want to talk about this with him and try to see his pov but he gives dodgy allusive answers or just doesn't talk at all. I'm all for saving this he just isn't sure. It's a roller coaster for all of us |
I'm sorry too. I wish this wasn't happening but wishes are like yeah you know the rest. So I guess we just have to keep praying and take each day as it comes. |
What does he threaten you with? If he's abusive then you're better off without him. >>I really had no idea that he felt this way he let's it build up till it's to late<< This relationship was doomed to failure. You had no idea he felt this way and he kept it all in and expected you to be able to read his mind I guess. If he's clamming up when you ask for clarification that's not your fault. He sounds quite passive aggressive. I understand you want to save your marriage, but sometimes we have to recognize when we are trying to fit a round peg into a square hole. Some people are just not meant to be together. |
If he wants to become her father by law, he would have to adopt her. |
Setting aside the issue with your husband for now, the issue of making a will and establishing who will have guardianship of your daughter if you should die is very important. If you die, do you want a father she hasn't seen in 10 years to have guardianship over her, uproot her and move her to a different country to live with a family she hasn't seen in 10 years? Your will may never be needed, but if you die it may be terribly important. You should consult an attorney if you can. As far as your husband is concerned, no one here knows if the damage is too great or not. I can see why your husband would be taken aback to realize that he has financially supported your daughter and acted as a father to her for 10 years and that one day, if you die, he could lose even the right to visit her. If your mom is threatening you, then it sounds like your mom and your husband don't have the greatest relationship and there may be issues between them regarding your daughter if you should die. I'm so sorry you're going through this. I imagine it may not be easy to get all this sorted out. Consulting an attorney, drawing up a will, contacting your daughter's biological father and getting the proper documents signed, etc., is probably expensive, awkward and time consuming. I hope you can work things out. |
Not physically abusive. It seems him threatening to file for divorce and kicking me out and blaming me for everything that has gone wrong is more like emotional abuse. Don't think he's doing it intentionally. But it's still wrong. |
It is expensive time consuming the amount of time it took to get divorced from my first husband and getting my daughter a certificate of citizenship was a nightmare. I don't know where her father is now, my mother and husband have never seen eye to eye on anything she threatens to petition the court for custody of my daughter. And even if I did have a will the court will still do what's best for the child and I do believe at 14 they can choose where they want to live. I've said I would sign him as a guardian but it's to little to late he says |
Well I just made out a living trust and come to find out if her father is still living she will go to him if I should become incapacitated or die regardless. let's hope nothing happens to me. |
It's not true that at age 14 a child can decide where they want to live. Trust me, I've done a lot of research into this when I was dating a guy who wanted custody of his son, and he thought 12 was the "magic" age when a child could decide. The truth is the older a child is the more weight a judge will give a child's preference however, ultimately the judge will rule in what is in the best interests of the child. A child can not unilaterally decide where they want to live until they are 18. Daisyinga had a good point though that you should have a will drawn up. I know it's a hassle, but you should consult with an attorney to see what your options are. It may be your husband is hurt that he has been a father to your daughter all this time but realizes it can be snatched away from him at any moment. He might be reacting out of hurt more than anything. |
I know and I've been doing a lot of thinking made out my living trust. I do love this man even though it's been rough for awhile now he's been here through it all he deserves some appreciation for all he's done |
Glad you made out a living trust. I hope nothing happens to you for it to be needed. Good luck to you, Amber. |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Nutmeg!
Facts about Nutmeg
- Breed: Domestic Mediumhair
- Color: Brown Tabby
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Medium
Nutmeg's Info...
I am up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Cinnamon and nutmeg are tabby with white brother and sister. They are both loving playful lap cats. They have had their first shot and have been tested. If interested contact Nadine @ firstname.lastname@example.com and 917 930 2389

Other Pets at Long Island Cat/Kitten Solution, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Nutmeg, a Island Park Domestic Mediumhair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Mediumhair for sale in Island Park, or seeking a Domestic Mediumhair kitten from a breeder in Island Park.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Island Park 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 Island Park breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Mediumhair breeders who help with Domestic Mediumhair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Island Park paves the way for another one to be saved.

Lawyers are fond of noting there are only three courtroom strategies to pursue in any legal case. First, if the facts favor your client, argue the facts.
Given the sad state of affairs in today's affairs of state – record federal budget deficits, record trade deficits, illegal domestic eavesdropping, the sale of key U.
When March arrives like a lamb, the old saying goes, it roars out like a lion. How then will the 2006 growing season finish if current numbers, courtesy of the USDA, show it hobbling out of the gate on weak knees and a bent back? Six months, of course, will tell the tale, but February USDA figures begin it with some opening lines that are grim – Brothers Grimm grim.
A month ago this space outlined the ongoing Australian probe of AWB Ltd., that nation's single-desk wheat exporter, and the nearly $215 million in kickbacks and bribes it paid to Iraqi officials to keep Aussie wheat flowing into Iraq between 1999 and the U.
On any other day, the Jan. 23 confirmation that another BSE-carrying cow had been discovered in Canada would have rocked that nation and its Canadian beef-importing neighbor to the south.

Santa Sabina
This ancient church on the Aventine Hill has some of the oldest Christian art in the world

A detail of the 5th century carved wooden doors.
Santa Sabina was built in AD 422–32 and still retains its ★ original 5th century wooden doors, beautifully carved with Biblical scenes including one of the earliest Crucifixions in western art.
The door is located at the end of the 15th-century porch filled with sarcophagus lids (mounted on swivel frames so you can spin each one to examine both sides; cool).
At first glance, the gorgeous and shadowy interior seems almost perfectly preserved, with giant Corinthian columns pirated from a nearby ancient structure and the original opus sectile marble inlay above the arches. Most of the chapels, however, have been baroqued, though this impacts little on the overall effect.
If it's open, pop into the pretty 13th-century cloisters off the porch.
Just down the road is the massive Knights of Malta gate.
- Planning your day: You can wander the church in a quick 20–30 minutes—though budget an extra 20 minutes for the trek up onto the Aventine, which is kind of removed from the rest of central Rome (but in a lovely way; you feel like you're in a leafy suburb, not a downtown neighborhood).
- Mass: You can attend services at Santa Sabina Monday to Saturdays at 7:15am; Sundays at 8am, 10:30am, and 11:30am.
