Before I begin, I'll just make sure this is clear: Forrest is crazy about his relatives. All of them. He loves all his aunts and uncles and cousins and grandmas and grandpas, and I never see him more excited than when I tell him we're going to Grandma's house or Papa is coming to visit or his aunts or uncles or cousins are going to come over to play. In fact, his favorite part of our Christmas get-together yesterday was handing out presents to all his relatives, and when they were all organized, he continued handing out his own presents to everyone else because it was just too fun to say their names and find them in the crowd and give them a gift.
Now, with the disclaimer in mind that he loves all of them, there is one pretty clear front runner. And, lucky lady that she is, she also seems to be the favorite of all her nieces and nephews.
Bekah. (Or, in Gooby-speak, always in overexcited rapid machine-gun fire succession: "Dekah!Dekah!Dekah!Dekahdekahdekahdekahdekah!")
A few pieces of evidence of his great love for his aunt Dekah:
1) This picture frame is hanging in our living room:
Through the summer and fall, Forrest would, when he was upset with me, point out on the frame other people he, I'm assuming, preferred over me. I think he was actually requesting that they come over and take care of him and that I leave . . . he would point at a person, repeat "please? please?" and then cry at me when I couldn't make them magically appear. I'm sure it goes without saying that Sweet Dekah up there in the corner was always the first person requested. And on particularly angry days, he'd even try requesting the picture of the dog. Sorry buddy. Stuck with me.
2. Yesterday, we had to wake Forrest up early from his nap to make it to our family Christmas dinner on time. He woke up pretty grouchy and nothing we were doing would get him to stop whining. We offered to let him bring his new toys to Jake's house for dinner, we offered him his Christmas candy, and he was still whiny and grumpy. Finally, we started listing off family members that he was going to see when we got there. He kept whining and crying through all the names we listed until we told him he'd get to see aunt Bekah, and he right away started laughing and dancing and repeating her name until we got there, when he ran straight in to give her a hug.
3. One of my gifts to Forrest this year was a homemade coloring book filled with pictures of family members. (I posted about how I made it here.) I'll give you 3 guesses at whose page he was most thrilled to see, and requested to color first.

Donna beats big mary!
Donna Foot Smothers Big Mary!!!
I know that this is not so politically correct these days, and I also know it is not everyones cup of tea on this board. I feel and want to share this true story because it excites me so much, and I hope others like it too. I absolutely love when a tall slender gorgeous woman beats up and humiliates a not so good looking much bigger woman, and uses her feet while doing it. Donna, in this case is the gorgeous woman. I have written about her on this board often. She is very fit and sexy, long legged, long haired blonde woman with blue eyes. She is about 5'7 and 130 pounds with very nice legs and very pretty feet. She swims, runs, kick boxes and does karate along with aerobics to stay in such good shape. Years ago, I got her into apartment wrestling and catfighting. She beats many women, until I matched her up with another friends wife Nancy. Nancy is also pretty and sexy, so watching them battle on the mats was a real treat. Nancy beat her, and to top it off, Nancy stepped on her chest, and then stuck both her bare feet into Donna's face foot smothering her. Donna said her feet really smelled, and she was humiliated! Donna wanted, and then got revenge on Nancy, and loved making her smell her sweaty feet. From that point on, Donna wanted to make other opponents smell her feet! After the Nancy revenge match, about 6 weeks after, Donna got her wish and had her chance. There was this big woman at her work that was really bothering her. She was a new arogant loud mouthed employee. Mary was the same age as Donna, late 40's, but at 5'6 225 pounds, she was much much bigger, and fatter. She had sort of a biker chick past, so she thought she was so tough. Donna grew more sick of the short haired brunette as time went on, and they got in each others face often. That is until Donna said, if you think your so tough meet me at my gym, and she did. I came to watch, as did some people from Donna's work. Donna is a high salaried executive, not trailer trash, Mary was support staff. They square off, Donna was in a white gi, her gorgeous bare feet painted light pink. Mary was in a black Harley t-shirt, black shorts, wide bare feet un-painted. Donna was much lighter, but so much more athletic, quicker, faster, and trained in martial arts, a green belt in karate. From the beginning Mary was just a kicking bag, trying to punch and grab, but she couldn't catch Donna. Donna landed a right side kick to her ear, another to her cheek, a left kick to her chest, a left kick to her other ear. Donna was kicking the crap out of her. Straight kick to the stomache, right kick to her left thigh, followed by another and another. A high side kick to her right cheek, followed by two kicks to the stomache. Mary punched and swatted at her legs and feet, and really tried to punch her face. As Mary tried to slap at her legs, Donna raised her right foot fast and connected with a front kick directly in her face, pop! Mary was dazed and loopy. What does Donna do? She uses the same foot to kick her flush in the face again harder! It was like slow motion too! To see her sexy foot connect with the ugly face so hard was stunning! Mary crashed on to her back. Donna stomps on her fat belly with her right bare foot, then the left, then the right, again and again. She was trampling her in front of me and several co-workers. Mary was crying now. Donna said, I don't want to hear that, and stepped on her breasts hard and then her face flush with her pretty sexy sweaty left foot. She pressed the foot into her nose and mouth! Smell good? Like my foot on your face, huh, how does it feel, how does it smell, huh? She rubbed it in the losing big mouthed womans face! Like my foot? Just as Nancy had done to her, she was humiliating Mary under her pretty but very smelly bare foot! Donna switched feet, put that foot in her face, smell it!!!! I want to hear you smell it!! Lick it now!!! Lick it bitch!!! Mary shook but just did as she was told. Donna smothered her face under the right foot, and than the left!! Mary's face was wet with tears and Donna's foot sweat! Donna loved having her face under her bare feet! It really turned her on, watching this ugly woman that she hated, crying under her sexy feet! Donna laughed at her, and loved humiliating her, and she loved looking at her feet on her face! Donna has had other fights, and has even stepped on my face and my wife's face at different times. Mary, my wife and I have all experienced the sexy blonde's feet. I, HOWEVER, WAS THE ONLY ONE OF THIS GROUP TO ENJOY THEM!!!! IF YOU CARE, THERE ARE PICTURES OF DONNA'S SEXY DOMINANT FEET HERE IN THE STORIES SECTION. LOOK FOR THREAD........ DONNA foot smothers LAUREN, and there are pictures there!!!!

204 Main Street SEMinneapolis, MN 55414 Hours
It features walkways, bike paths and scenic overlooks of the falls and is a unique location for a wedding.
The park also offers visitors a flashback to early riverfront life. Panels located throughout the park tell stories of flour mills, saw mills and one of the countrys first hydroelectric plants. Electricity has been generated at the site for more than 120 years.
As a provision of re-licensing the St. Anthony Falls Hydroelectric Project, Xcel Energy developed a recreation resource management plan that included the new park. Owned by Xcel Energy, Water Power Park is managed by the Park Board.
Historical Profile: More information about this and other parks is included in Parks, Lakes, Trails and So Much More, a richly detailed account of the histories of Minneapolis renown recreational system.

Santa Fe
Inn of the Five Graces
Santa Fe, NM, 87501, United States
This happily over-the-top, 24-suite compound has a Thousand and One Nights aesthetic, so minimalists beware: the units here, which occupy vintage adobe buildings along a short stretch of the city's oldest street, are all whimsically cluttered with ornate bric-a-brac, tapestries, and tiles from Turkey, China, Mexico, and other exotic destinations. All have king or queen beds with lavishly hand-carved or -woven headboards and a mix of Oriental, Persian, and Native American rugs and tapestries; most also have wood-burning fireplaces, wet-bar kitchens, and mosaic-bedecked bathrooms with super-deep soaking tubs or steam showers. Rates include perks like complimentary refreshments—juices, pâté, and cheese—that are restocked every day, and ample breakfasts and afternoon wine-and-cheese gatherings in the Pink Adobe's wine cellar (or, when weather allows, in the adobe-wall courtyard). Staffers here are super-solicitous; if you have any questions about the property or things to do around town, just ask.
Room to Book:
The secluded Luminaria House is an impossibly sumptuous two-bedroom casita with a circular two-level sitting room, a full kitchen and dining area, and numerous balconies and patio nooks—one warmed by an outdoor fireplace.Insider Tip:
The adjacent and much-hyped Pink Adobe restaurant is overrated (although the Dragon Room is worth a stop for drinks).Amenities

US envoy, mayor to inaugurate footbridge project
-A A +ATuesday, September 25, 2012
THE new United States Deputy Chief of Mission Brian Goldbeck is scheduled to visit Zamboanga City and Basilan province this week to learn more about the U.S.-Philippine partnership and U.S. Government-supported projects in the two places.
Goldbeck, who is a career member of the State Department's Senior Foreign Service, arrived in Manila last August 16 to assume the duties of Deputy Chief of Mission for the U.S. Embassy in Manila.
Previously, Goldbeck served as U.S. Consul General in Guangzhou, China from 2009 to 2012, according to the U.S. Embassy.
The U.S. Embassy in a statement Tuesday said that Goldbeck and Mayor Celso Lobregat will lead U.S. and local government officials to inaugurate a suspension footbridge project on Friday, September 28, in Sitio Murok, Barangay Pasonanca, north of this city.
It said that the footbridge project will benefit approximately 6,000 residents in Sitio Murok, Barangay Pasonanca and from nearby areas.
The construction of the footbridge was funded by the U.S. government and was completed last month.
The footbridge provides safe pedestrian passage and timely transport of people, products and services to all corners of Zamboanga City.

Who needs Dunkin' Donuts? And those grocery store donuts… forget-about-it! You really can make your own light, airy, delicious donuts. Pastry Chef Phyllis is sharing her family recipe with you (I begged her). Watch the video to see how it's done. The recipe is below. If you have any questions, just ask us on our Facebook Page. Hey, let us know if you make these & send us a picture your donuts.
1 cup milk (lukewarm to touch)
1 oz. yeast (1 oz=4 Tbsp)
3 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 oz. shortening (Crisco)
1/4 cup eggs (1 large egg should =1/4 cup)
1 lb. flour
Step 1: Pour milk into mixing bowl. Sprinkle yeast over milk. Let sit for 5 minutes, or until yeast starts "working". Now add the remaining ingredients.
Step 2: Mix with a dough hook for 5 minutes. You can also knead this by hand. Do this until soft dough forms. Cover. Let dough rest for 30 minutes in a warm place (until it is double in size)
Step 3: On floured surface, roll out dough until 1/2″ thick.
Step 4: Using cutter, cut out donuts. Place donuts on flat floured surface.
Step 5: Proof till double in size
Step 6: In deep frying pot, heat shortening to 375 degrees. Fry donuts until golden color. Flip over and fry on other side.
Step 7: Remove from oil. Rest donuts on brown paper or parchment to absorb oil.
Step 8: Glaze with thin icing or chocolate. See video for more info on icing tips.

Complete Jewish Bible (CJB) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 The proverbs of Shlomo the son of David, king of Isra'el, | 1 The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel: |
2 are for learning about wisdom and discipline; for understanding words expressing deep insight; | 2 for attaining wisdom and discipline; for understanding words of insight; |
3 for gaining an intelligently disciplined life, doing what is right, just and fair; | 3 for acquiring a disciplined and prudent life, doing what is right and just and fair; |
4 for endowing with caution those who don't think and the young person with knowledge and discretion. | 4 for giving prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the young-- |
5 Someone who is already wise will hear and learn still more; someone who already understands will gain the ability to counsel well; | 5 let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance-- |
6 he will understand proverbs, obscure expressions, the sayings and riddles of the wise. | 6 for understanding proverbs and parables, the sayings and riddles of the wise. |
7 The fear of ADONAI is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline. | 7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline. |
8 My son, heed the discipline of your father, and do not abandon the teaching of your mother; | 8 Listen, my son, to your father's instruction and do not forsake your mother's teaching. |
9 they will be a garland to grace your head, a medal of honor for your neck. | 9 They will be a garland to grace your head and a chain to adorn your neck. |
10 My son, if sinners entice you, don't go along with them. | 10 My son, if sinners entice you, do not give in to them. |
11 Suppose they say, "Come with us: we'll ambush somebody and kill him, we'll waylay some harmless soul, just for fun; | 11 If they say, "Come along with us; let's lie in wait for someone's blood, let's waylay some harmless soul; |
12 we'll swallow him alive, like Sh'ol, whole, like those who descend to the pit; | 12 let's swallow them alive, like the grave, and whole, like those who go down to the pit; |
13 we'll find everything he has of value, we'll fill our homes with loot! | 13 we will get all sorts of valuable things and fill our houses with plunder; |
14 Throw in your lot with us; we'll share a common purse"- | 14 throw in your lot with us, and we will share a common purse"-- |
15 my son, don't go along with them, don't set foot on their path; | 15 my son, do not go along with them, do not set foot on their paths; |
16 Their feet run to evil, they rush to shed blood. | 16 for their feet rush into sin, they are swift to shed blood. |
17 For in vain is the net baited if any bird can see it; | 17 How useless to spread a net in full view of all the birds! |
18 rather, they are ambushing themselves to shed their own blood, waylaying themselves. | 18 These men lie in wait for their own blood; they waylay only themselves! |
19 So are the ways of all greedy for gain -it takes the lives of those who get it. | 19 Such is the end of all who go after ill-gotten gain; it takes away the lives of those who get it. |
20 Wisdom calls aloud in the open air and raises her voice in the public places; | 20 Wisdom calls aloud in the street, she raises her voice in the public squares; |
21 she calls out at streetcorners and speaks out at entrances to city gates: | 21 at the head of the noisy streets she cries out, in the gateways of the city she makes her speech: |
22 "How long, you whose lives have no purpose, will you love thoughtless living? How long will scorners find pleasure in mocking? How long will fools hate knowledge? | 22 "How long will you simple ones love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge? |
23 Repent when I reprove -I will pour out my spirit to you, I will make my words known to you. | 23 If you had responded to my rebuke, I would have poured out my heart to you and made my thoughts known to you. |
24 Because you refused when I called, and no one paid attention when I put out my hand, | 24 But since you rejected me when I called and no one gave heed when I stretched out my hand, |
25 but instead you neglected my counsel and would not accept my reproof; | 25 since you ignored all my advice and would not accept my rebuke, |
26 I, in turn, will laugh at your distress, and mock when terror comes over you | 26 I in turn will laugh at your disaster; I will mock when calamity overtakes you-- |
27 yes, when terror overtakes you like a storm and your disaster approaches like a whirlwind, when distress and trouble assail you. | 27 when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster sweeps over you like a whirlwind, when distress and trouble overwhelm you. |
28 Then they will call me, but I won't answer; they will seek me earnestly, but they won't find me. | 28 "Then they will call to me but I will not answer; they will look for me but will not find me. |
29 Because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of ADONAI, | 29 Since they hated knowledge and did not choose to fear the LORD, |
30 they refused my counsel and despised my reproof. | 30 since they would not accept my advice and spurned my rebuke, |
31 So they will bear the consequences of their own way and be overfilled with their own schemes. | 31 they will eat the fruit of their ways and be filled with the fruit of their schemes. |
32 For the aimless wandering of the thoughtless will kill them, and the smug overconfidence of fools will destroy them; | 32 For the waywardness of the simple will kill them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them; |
33 but those who pay attention to me will live securely, untroubled by fear of misfortune." | 33 but whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm." |

The One With Norwegian Horrors, Indie Thrills, 'The Impossible' and 'Gangster Squad'
Features By Rob Hunter on April 22, 2013 | Be the First To CommentWelcome back to This Week In Discs! As always, if you see something you like, click on the image to buy it. The Central Park Five The term "crime of the century" is an overused one, and one of the more infamous examples of its application came in 1989 when a white, female jogger in NYC's Central Park was sexually assaulted and left for dead. The culprits were identified as five black teens who were tried and convicted both in the courtroom and the court of public opinion. The boys were sentenced and served out their time, but they were relieved and the world were surprised in 2002 when the real culprit confessed. PBS golden boy Ken Burns co-directs this sad, shocking and infuriating doc that explores the case from the perspective of both the boys and the truth. Over eager police and prosecutors combined with a racially divided public led to a terrible miscarriage of justice. The film acknowledges that the blame lay equally with the authorities, the press and at times, the boys' parents too. The NYC of more than twenty years ago seems almost unrecognizable to the city of today, but the facts speak for themselves. If only there had been someone to listen back in 1989.
