Last week at a women's meeting at church, one of the ladies was telling "You might be Lutheran if…" jokes to break the ice before a presentation she gave. One of them struck a chord with all the women in the room and several said they needed signs with the punch line to hang on the wall in their homes. It went something like this, "You might be Lutheran if… your house is messy and you tell guests it's because you are saved by grace, not works."
Unfortunately, I didn't have time to make this sign before my mother in law's arrival last Friday because… well, because I was too busy cleaning my house for her visit!
My husband's mother is in no way judgmental of my (lack of) cleaning skills. The truth is that I do it out of respect for her. I want her to know that I'm taking good care of her son and her grandbabies. I want to live up to any expectations she may have about the woman her baby married. If you could see how immaculate she and her daughters keep their homes, you would likely understand my dilemma. It comes down to my desire to present myself as acceptable to her, not because of any sort of condemnation I feel from her.
Even with all this weighing on me, there are a few places that don't get the full treatment, because I know I can keep those messes out of site with closed doors. And of course My Messy Desk is never clean, but I've given myself a perfectly acceptable excuse by naming it so appropriately.
Conversely, when my own mother comes to visit, I try to get the house just barely clean enough that she doesn't feel obligated to call social services with concerns about the cleanliness of my children's living environment. That isn't out of any sort of disrespect for her, but she simply knows me too well to be fooled by any of my attempts to impress her.
While I was vacuuming up obscene amounts of black dog hair from our beige carpet, I thought about how similar my frantic preparations for my dear mother in law's visit are to the way I often approach my God. I often want everything in order and to have all my messes cleaned up before I invite Him in. I try to impress Him with how well I'm handling my life. I want to appear acceptable to Him.
But even more than my own mother, He knows me all too well to be fooled. Psalm 139. There is nothing about me He doesn't already know. And miraculously, He loves me anyway!
One of the (many) reasons I put off cleaning is that once I get down close to the dust and grime that collect in a house with a Soldier, two boys and a dog that seems to shed an entire coat's worth of fur weekly, I keep finding more to clean. The dirt that collects in all the cracks and crevices escapes notice as I pass by casually moving through my daily routine is magnified when I get down on the floor with a sponge in hand. I always find much more in need of cleaning than I anticipated. It's the same way with my sin. If I start with cleaning up the big ones, I'm going to find lots more filth down deep in the cracks. There is no way for me to get myself clean enough.
That is precisely why God sent Jesus to be our savior. "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9
Right after the birth of our second son, my mother in law and one of my sisters in law came to visit us. This has been the one and only exception to my rule about cleaning prior to her visits. I was physically unable to muster the energy to get the house as clean as I thought it should be. It was a little scary to invite them in when I knew what a state our home was in. With a two day old and a toddler, I truly had no choice but to surrender, and guess what… Those two angels came in a cleaned it up for me. Sinks, tubs, faucets, floors, and counters, all shining brilliantly. So much cleaner than anything I ever achieve.
This is what Jesus does for us. He cleans us up better than new, because He knows we are completely unable to do it on our own. The blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1:7
I wish my house would stay as clean as it is the day my mother in law arrives, but alas for the same reasons I mentioned a few paragraphs above, it does not. It's true that once it has been cleaned well, I can keep it up for a little while, but eventually I just get overwhelmed with life and if I'm being really honest, probably a little laziness, too. In the hope of improving my domestic abilities, I've done a little research on how to get and keep my house clean. I've found so many schedules out there that claim to be the secret to successfully keeping your home spic and span and they all involve just a little bit of work each day. Every. Single. Day.
I am fairly certain it isn't just me that is often overcome by a feeling of futility where cleaning is concerned. It seems that I clean up one area and then before I'm even done in the next room, the first space is sullied again. My husband walks in with mud on his boots or the dog coughs up something unidentifiable on the newly vacuumed carpet and my kids seem to be able to make a mess just by simply existing! Or once the inside is clean and I walk outside to find that the porch needs sweeping and the yard needs weeding… It's enough to make me want to throw my hands up in the air and scream.
Our sin can be like that, too. Just when we feel like we're all cleaned up and have a handle on one area of transgression, another pops up or some old temptation we thought we had conquered rears its ugly head once again. Paul wrote about this feeling of futility in Romans 7:19. The good he wants to do he does not, but the evil he wants to avoid, he keeps on doing. When we are overwhelmed by our sins, He forgives our transgressions. Psalm 65:3.
I think this is what Jesus was talking about in Matthew 11:28-30. The Jews of that day were saddled with a multitude of extraneous religious rules and regulations heaped upon them by the Pharisees in a supposed attempt to keep them from breaking Mosaic Law. These laws were so restrictive it was nearly impossible not to break them. If I had lived in that time, I'm certain I would have been overwhelmed. But what Jesus was trying to tell them and us today is that He is the fulfillment of the law and that all who believe in Him can rest in the blessed assurance of His sacrifice for our salvation. His yoke is easy and His burden is light so we need not become disheartened. Matthew 11:30
After a decade of living with me, I think my beloved husband has become somewhat numb to my lack of domestic cleanliness. He doesn't even seem to mind when he goes to work with glitter on the socks he laces up inside his combat boots. We can become just as desensitized to our own sin as my family is to my messy house. Unfortunately, even just a little bit of sin can lead us down dangerous roads. When we allow sin to remain in our lives, eventually we may stop recognizing it for what it is. It might seem easier to look the other way like I do with so many dusty shelves, but when we overlook sin, the repercussions are eternal. "If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." 1 John 1:8.
I can try to hide random toys, books, out of season clothes and stuffed animals in my son's closet, but in his innocence, he will most certainly call me out by begging my mother in law to check out his awesome secret hiding place. Sins we try to hide, like the messes I cram behind closed doors will come to light on judgment day. King David tried to hide his sin by having the husband of the woman with whom he had an affair killed in battle. One sin led to another and he paid for his transgressions with anguish, heartache and loss, which he wrote about in several Psalms after the prophet Nathan called him out. So, instead of keeping skeletons in our closets, we should follow his lead and acknowledge our transgressions, confess that we have sinned against God and done what is evil in His sight. God is faithful then to purge us, cleanse us and wash us whiter than snow so that we may once again hear joy and gladness, then He will hide His face from our sins and blot out our iniquities. Psalm 51:3-4, 7-9.
If you are waiting to get yourself all cleaned up before you invite God in, you are missing the point! In His infinite mercy and grace, He sent His Son to do the cleaning for us before we even knew how dirty we were. Romans 5:8 says, God shows His love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Just like those schedules for cleaning your house, He will polish us up day by day and make us shine like never before if we invite Him in each and every day. And this is what gives Christians eternal hope, that "even though our outward man is perishing, [our] inward man is being renewed day by day." 2 Corinthians 4:16. Although, we cannot be perfected in these earthly bodies, "I am certain that God, who began a good work within [us] will continue His work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns." Philippians 1:6.
So, daily I will pray as David did, "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me." Psalm 51:10, because this is truly the only way to clean house!

THIRD TIME LUCKY; DIVISION ONE SPOTLIGHT... Dundee chief MacKinnon desperate to clinch place in SPL after two years of heartache at Dens Park.
Byline: BY EUAN McARTHURDUNDEE chief Dave MacKinnon insists the Dens Park club will silence the snipers - by making it third time lucky in their promotion quest.
The defiant Dens Park chief executive is convinced Alex Rae's side will be celebrating a dream return to the SPL next summer despite cynics suggesting they missed a golden opportunity last season by being pipped to the promised land by Hamilton.
Some say the loss of stars such as Gavin Swankie, Paul Dixon, Scott Robertson and Derek Lyle will put paid to their hopes of another championship charge next season.
But MacKinnon is convinced they're right on course to fulfil their three-year pledge to bring top-flight football back to Dens Park.
He said: "I've said all along it was a three-year job to take Dundee back into the SPL.
"Now we're going into our third year and we'll be judged at the end of that.
"I know some people have said that last year was maybe our best chance to get back into the top flight when we finished runnersup to Hamilton.
"But I don't go along with that at all. I believe deep down this can be our year. I know we've lose some players the fans might be disappointed to see go.
"But I really believe the players we're targeting as their replacements can help us make the next step up. For that reason I'm confident we can get the promotion the club is striving for."
MacKinnon has sacrificed much in his stint at Dens, so much so he's denied himself a well-deserved break to work round the clock for the Dark Blues' cause.
He was instrumental in the arrival of Mark Gilhaney, the 23-year-old winger from SPL new boys Hamilton, earlier this week and won't rest until the first-team squad has been further strengthened.
MacKinnon said: "I've not had a summer holiday in three years because it's been hectic since coming here.
"Bob Brannan, the chairman, and the other board members have actually been a bit concerned and have said to take some time off in the close season.
"On Tuesday I left my house at 6.15am to be at Dens Park and didn't get back home until 10.30pm that night after taking in the Scotland Under-21 game at Rugby Park. They were worried I would run myself into the ground so I'm going to take their advice at last.
"But that will only be after I've helped organise an oversees training camp.
"And of course there's another couple of signings to make before I can relax."
Dundee have laid down a marker for an SPL return by re-signing influential defender David Cowan and former Hibs striker Mickael-Antoine Curier as part of their summer spree in the hope of stealing a march on their promotion rivals.
And MacKinnon reckons a pre-season training camp abroad can raise the feel-good factor even further.
MacKinnon said: "Alex is in Hong Kong, Davie Farrell is in Spain and I'm phoning them from Scotland. We're in contact nearly all the time, bouncing ideas back and forth like any management team.
"But I obviously can't do anything without Alex's consent so everything has to be run by him. I remember going abroad with Rangers when I was a player and as far as team bonding goes it's different class.
"It gets the new guys to mix with the established players and the benefits can be seen when they're mucking in for each other."
Some scoffed when Rae was appointed as Alan Kernaghan's successor in May 2006.
The midfielder had just finished his playing career at Rangers butMacKinnon believes Rae has one of the brightest futures in the Scottish managerial scene and is destined to succeed because of his love for the game.
MacKinnon said: "Alex is gaining valuable experience all the time and after last season's events, no matter how disappointing things turned out, will stand him in good stead.
"When we appointed Alex a lot of people said we should have gone for a more experienced manager.
"But you can go for the most experienced guy in the business and he's still not the man for the job.
"We went for Alex because he's what Dundee needed - a young, ambitious boss. I know he's relishing next season as much as anybody.
"We're all in it together. We've come a long way since the club finished seventh before we arrived with a wage bill that had to be slashed quite considerably.
"Now, provided we can get promotion, it will see us complete our journey."
If the fans' response is anything to go by, Dundee can count on their loyal support for next season's campaign.
MacKinnon can't thank them enough and admits they deserve to see their favourites rubbing shoulders with the best after a lengthy absence from the top league.
He said: "Our fans have been absolutely marvellous. Season tickets only went on sale three weeks ago and we've sold double the amount we had this time last year.
"With the fans right behind us as ever it can only give us extra confidence and they'd love to see the likes of the Old Firm back at Dens on league business.
"We've still had no bids for Kevin McDonald despite all his admirers out there.
"We don't want to sell any player - especially someone of Kevin's ability - so to have him still here for next term would be a huge boost."
'I've said all along that it would be a three-year job to take Dundee up'
BRIGHT FUTURE: Mickael-Antoine Curier and Kevin McDonald can help lead Dundee back to the SPL; RAE OF HOPE: Rae takes over in 2006, above, and MacKinnon backs him to lead Dee back to the SPL

Meanwhile, Rap Radar notes that West's upcoming G.O.O.D. Music compilation is also called Cruel Summer, and the film is inspired by the tunes on it.
Last month it was reported that the film was being described as a thriller, and his G.O.O.D. Music family member Kid Cudi was said to have a role in it. Should we also expect a cameo from Kanye's recent recording partner Justin Bieber? Or — gulp — Kim Kardashian?
Really, we're just wondering if the whole shebang has anything to do with this:

Why wouldn't China peg it's currency to the currency of it's largest trading partner? Seems perfectly rational to me. Was this not the accepted policy for much of the world during the Bretton Woods era?
Here in Canada, in the past ten years we've watched the Canadian dollar range between $0.63-$1.03US. You can imagine the dislocation caused for exporters.
China is accused of pegging 'too low'. The massive US deficit provides the mechanism for this to continue. The US has no one to blame but itself. China's real advantage is hundreds of millions of desperately poor farmers looking for factory work. Exports can increase without any resulting pressure on wages. The West borrows and spends irresponsibly and blames China for it's problems.

(Reuters) - The U.S. government's main code-making and code-cracking agency now works on the assumption that foes may have pierced even the most sensitive national security computer networks under its guard.
"There's no such thing as 'secure' any more," Debora Plunkett of the National Security Agency said on Thursday amid U.S. anger and embarrassment over disclosure of sensitive diplomatic cables by the web site WikiLeaks.
"The most sophisticated adversaries are going to go unnoticed on our networks," she said.

The 48-year-old actor appeared unconcerned about who saw him as he pulled in his girlfriend for a lengthy smooch, with the blonde returning the embrace with just as much passion. See more pics here!

2013 and earlier-Honda Pilot Prices Paid and Buying Experience
pkrzrl Posts: 1I'm having a difficult time finding one in Dark Cherry at a dealership that will match Sams club pricing. Found a dealership nearby that will sell it to me for $37357 (+$125 doc fee & TTL). Owner of the dealership has been driving it, has 600 miles on it. They'll also match the price on the polished metal with no miles on it. I really prefer the Dark Cherry - they'll add 6 mo./6000 mile warranty. I'm trying to get them to throw in side steps for that price ($531.23 installed). Should I be worried about the 600 miles someone else has put on it???

basamx Posts: 17Hi,
I'm looking for a 2011 Pilot 4WD EX-L. So far the best deal I've found was from AMEX Auto buy program for $500 below invoice at David Hobbs Honda, but I've read here that some have been getting as much as $1,500 below invoice.
Anyone out there in the Milwaukee/Chicago/Madison area that can recommend a dealer for excellent Pilot pricing? -
imanusa Posts: 2Cardeals123: Thanks for replying to my post. I am new to this board and don't how to email you directly.
I live in the northwest Houston /CyFair area but am willing to go all the way to Clear Lake for a good deal and dealers who are reasonable to deal with. We have looked at just one dealership so far that's off US290 but have not done any serious negotiations yet - still researching before I start any real negotiation. You can't really negotiate until you what your bottom line is.
Your help in this is highly appreciated. -

amymit Posts: 2I am super interested in talking to you! I am in the Houston area and I am going to look for my new Pilot tomorrow. I am interested in knowing who you dealt with and where. I am pretty sure of the Dealership based on the lifetime warranty offered. I sent an email to you, but I am not sure if it was correct as there is no @ in the address!!
bretam Posts: 12Goodson Honda West Houston is where I bought my car. I bought the exact Honda you are looking at OTD (out the door) with wheel locks, cargo tray, tinted windows, door guards etc. for $35,400. Apparently they put this extra stuff on at the dealership and then try to get you to pay a bunch extra. My goal was to get OTD at $35,000. The economy is tough right now and it is a buyers market. If you can hold out till the end of the month you can probably do better. We are very happy with our Honda. It is a nice vehicle that should last for years. If you want to drop a direct e-mail to email@example.com I'll let you know who sold me my Honda. The sales process was relatively painless but the sales guy had to try the back and forth stuff a few times. Always keep it civil and let them know you are a serious buyer and be ready to walk if you have to. They don't want you walking out that's for sure. Hope this helps...Good Luck!
amymit Posts: 2Hello there...I went into today and left with nothing. I have been dealing with someone at Goodson North. They are offering me an EX-L for about 30,999 plus TTL...I got a quote through USAA for less than that at Goodson West so I am thinking about going there in the morning. I am just ready for this to be done and get into something new!!! It has been way too long! I will let you know the outcome!
pilotdawg Posts: 2This site was helpful for me while researching price, so I'm contributing back!
2011 2WD EX-L w/ RES, purchased over the weekend in Atlanta metro. $31,546 + $780 destination + $587 doc fee + Taxes + Title. Added in roof cross bars, towing kit/hitch ball, cargo net, and towing wire harness installed. OTD was just under $36k.
8yr/100k HondaCare extended warranty for $1,290. I told the dealer I didn't want any BS on the warranty cost, and he came out straight away with $1,290. Could have got it about $100 less online, but I appreciated their honest offer and took it. -
lennygman Posts: 5I am getting great quotes in NJ but the issue is that Touring inventory for whatever reason is VERY low right now. Can't figure out what is going on. Most dealers in NJ do not have touring in stock. I am guessing it is supply/demand thing and the variable at play is supply (not demand). Dealers were not ordering top line Touring as they did not expect much demand in the summer so only now they tell me they putting in orders. Most are expecting to get them by Nov where SUVs are typically go up in price.
A great price for Touring 4WD is between 36100 and 36600 Including Destination. I got 4 quotes. Only issue they don't have the colors I want or cars still in transit.

Publishers Weekly
Holley (Red Sox Rule: Terry Francona and Boston's Rise to Dominance) has written the ultimate book for pro football geeks. From the front office to the draft room, the author provides an intimate look at three NFL teams-the New England Patriots, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Atlanta Falcons-and the men who built them. Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, with protégés Thomas Dimitroff and Scott Pioli, created a dynasty in New England that won three Super Bowls in four years. With fly-on-the-wall immediacy, Holley chronicles their unorthodox approach, even as Pioli and Dimitroff became general managers of, respectively, the Chiefs and the Falcons. War Room begins in 1991 with Belichick head coach of the Cleveland Browns (at 39, the league's youngest) and concludes following the 2011 NFL draft and player lockout. Holley objectively captures on- and off-field episodes, including 2007's infamous "Spygate" videotape scandal, and humanizes his subjects with reports of job interviews, dinner conversations, private meetings, and personal traumas.(c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC.

Flow Micron and Kids Binders
Great - these help the instructor or parent more than the kid. I find that the lever on the back is still a little to hard for mini rippers to pull up on their own, but they can get their feet in place and all the parent/instructor has to do is slap the lever up into the tight position. No fiddling with ratchets etc. Best buy I made so far, I also recomend Boa lacing system on the boots, it will save hands, save time and give the kids a little more independence...the final tightening should be done by an adult, but they can def get started on their own.

Santa Monica, Calif.'s Big Blue Bus announced that 11 new flexible North American Bus Industries (NABI) 60-foot articulated buses will be joining its fleet starting in 2011, allowing the transit agency to add a new level of expanded service to the public.
A provision in the contract allows for the option to purchase an additional 10 buses as funding becomes available in the future, and three of the new buses are being purchased with American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds.
The articulated buses will first be introduced on the popular Rapid 7 bus rapid transit (BRT) line, which is one of the agency's busiest routes. The Rapid 3 line will also receive new buses after the initial deployment on Rapid 7 is complete. The new cleaner burning compressed natural gas buses will replace some of the older diesel buses in the fleet, in keeping with the city's commitment to sustainability.
The new NABI articulated models include interior features for maximum comfort and convenience for all passengers, including seniors and those with disabilities. Each bus has 53 seats instead of the usual 40, and runs on clean compressed natural gas, which is 77 percent cleaner burning than diesel fuel.
According to NABI Senior Vice President Joe Gibson, BRT vehicles offer cities a less complicated and more affordable way to implement an efficient, more environmentally friendly transit system in their communities than other solutions.
"NABI's 60-foot BRT vehicle is a rubber-tire solution to light rail," said Gibson. "It offers many of the same amenities and features of rail, but with the flexibility afforded to bus route deployment," he said.
The Big Blue Bus currently operates a fleet of over 200 alternative fueled vehicles, carrying over 20 million passengers a year around a 52-square mile service area of Los Angeles County. The agency, nationally known for its commitment to sustainable transit equipment and technologies, recently opened a new $60 million eco-maintenance facility that includes three dedicated bays to service the new articulated models.
The Big Blue Bus contract with NABI contains provisions enabling the transit agency to purchase additional 60-foot BRT's in subsequent years, in keeping with anticipated expansion of the transit agency's Rapid Blue service.

Though Google officially announced Android Auto back at Google I/O, we didn't get to see much of the car initiative at the show itself. A recent update to the Developer.Android.com page shows off a lot more of the system, primarily in how the usual Android apps on a phone interact with a dash unit in a car or truck. The updated page includes screenshots of the app launcher (such as it is), Google Play Music, and some basic menus.
Google I/O 2014 has come and gone, but that doesn't mean great stuff from the conference isn't still coming out. The companion app used by thousands of attendees -and hundreds of thousands of fans and followers- has been open sourced! Code for the I/O app is meant to serve as an example of best practices for Android developers, providing fully functioning implementations of the latest design principles, UI controls, networking code, and more.
The Google Play Developer Console has undergone some pretty major changes over the years, including a complete overhaul 2 years ago. While the improvements continue to make for a more powerful and usable tool, some developers still find areas where it could be better. Google's engineers don't have time to build everything for everybody, but a new version of the Google Play Developer API makes it possible to build quite a few things for yourself.
Google's recently launched Android Wear platform had a bit of a rough weekend when it ran into an unexpected snag regarding paid apps – it couldn't install them. It turns out that the behavior could be traced to a Play Store security feature that was responsible for encrypting paid apps to make them more difficult to pirate; but in doing so, it had also made it impossible to extract and install any micro-apps contained within the apk.
The FreeXperia team of contributors help maintain CyanogenMod support for Xperia devices, and they've done such a great job that Sony has decided to hire one of the group's developers. Alin Jerpelea was one of FreeXperia's founders in 2010, and he is now the newest member of Sony's Developer Program. Having already built up a reputation for his work bringing the freshest CyanogenMod ROMs to Sony devices, he will now help the company with its open source initiatives.
Android fosters a wide and varied app ecosystem, enabling companies both large and small to produce compelling software. The ability to write an app and easily distribute it to most of the world has given rise to independent developers like Chris Lacy, the man behind Action Launcher, Tweet Lanes, and most recently, Link Bubble. Chris took some time to answer a few questions and tell us a little about his experiences developing apps for Android.
With most versions of Android, we're not used to seeing a changelog until a few hours after the AOSP code has been fully uploaded and somebody has had time to generate a comprehensive list. Imagine our surprise when such a list for KitKat 4.4.3 was discovered simply lying around on Google's servers. The file, named KK-MR2_changelist.txt, is located amidst Android's platform documentation. This is something of a first, since we'll actually learn about what's to come before the code is even available.
When Samsung announced the Gear 2 and the Gear 2 Neo last month, the news came with the confirmation that the company was dropping Android from both devices. Instead, both smart watches are powered by Tizen. This may not mean all that much for consumers in the short term, but it does impact developers. For you, Samsung has just shared the first version of the Tizen SDK aimed at wearables. This is what you need to grab if you intend to build apps for the company's two intelligent wristwatches.
Today Microsoft has released the Office 365 software development kit for Android. With it, the company wants to invite developers to access Office data inside their apps. The SDK provides APIs granting permission to call upon SharePoint lists and files, along with Exchange calendars, contacts, and mail. The preview is available for download straight from GitHub.
The SDK requires Android 4.0.3 or higher to run, and Microsoft has shared an introductory blog post to get you started.

LOL great video!
he is so freaking cute…and yes hes is right if you are a vegetarian…you should take the next step and be vegan!!!
George always has the best funny sketches on his shows with celebs. Moby is so cute!
"I'm a vegan"the new pickup line of the 21st century? I always believed us guys had the advantage with there being I thought more vegetarian women. But according to this surveyhttpwww.vrg.orgjournalvj2006issue4vj2006issue4poll.htmit's a pretty even split1.4 vegan men to 1.3 vegan women. Maybe there are more lactoovo veg women than men? For anyone that's interested vegan Mac Danzig featured on the PETA Files before won his Ultimate Fighting Championship match on April 19.
That was sooo funny! peanuts?….kale? And the relief when George comes back. Excellent!
Aww Moby! She's doesn't appreciate your worldly knowledge of local vegetables!! Not good enough for you. You and I should sit and chat I never get bored of talking about kale. Wink!
I love The Hour. George is the best. I need to skip work one day to go to a taping.
If you're vegetarian and not vegan you should really consider going vegan right this minute because dairy cows probably suffer eve more than animals raised for meat. The fact that dairy is liquid suffering doesn't make it less bad than solid suffering. As Gary Francione says "saying 'I don't eat meat but I eat dairy' makes as much sense as saying 'I don't eat large cows but I eat small cows.'" If you think animal exploitation is wrong you don't consume the products of animal exploitation. Plus it's easy once you commit to it! Just give it a try! Click my name! Please.

John Ely is my divorce attorney. Opposing council has been highly abrasive with every contact. John actually guarded me from most of the irrelevant ramblings in opposing council's letters, designed to intimidate. John knew my emotional state of mind was not strong enough to read every ridiculous letter he received during this long, drawn out case. I was always notified and supported by he and his talented staff. Any questions I had were answered clearly. Most of the time; I was cared for so well, I felt like I was his only client, (he has many clients.) I feel my case was handled well and I felt cared for and protected from any harm. I would certainly recommend John Ely.
John Ely is currently representing me in a divorce case. I have found him to be extremely trustworthy and knowledgeable about my divorce case. Our case is pretty simple, but he has a very good feel for what the courts will approve if it goes to trial. My case went to trial today and he was pretty accurate with his predictions about how it would turn out, not that he could guarantee it, as you never know how a judge will decide, but had a good sense for what was fair in the eyes of the court. He and his legal team have been very responsive to my questions. He kept me informed before and after the trial about what would happen and what did happen. I'm still in the middle of my divorce, but I'm extremely satisfied with my lawyer.

Tess, Raleigh, NC – January 2015
Ring is beautiful!
Jeff, Carmel, IN – December 2014

We don't mind leftovers and have them frequently but occasionally I make something that doesn't taste good reheated or just don't want to eat it again, period. (Mainly seafood.) But tonight I had leftover chicken/cornbread dressing casserole and it wasn't very good. And I don't know why, it was delicious yesterday. I'm also not a fan of leftover hamburgers, steak, pork chops, etc. |
Follow-Up Postings:

I think most people reheat leftovers in the microwave and that is typically horrible. For dishes that are intact, aka lasagna, I always prefer the oven. Instead of thinking of food as leftovers, I like to think, What can I make with the cooked pork chops? Chop it all up and put it on a bun with some bbq sauce or dice and put in eggrolls? etc. |
I don't like leftovers in general but I don't like leftover re-heated fried chicken, I would rather have it cold. Chicken and pork cooked in some kind of liquid or sauce is fine reheated. Pasta dishes heated in microwave at half works for me. Hamburger is ok but not quite as good as day of. Steak is never as good second day (but I am not going to pass it up)! |
I, too, cut up leftovers to turn them into something else. My mother is famous for pooh-poohing a Julia Child recipe for a paté because it starts with cooking the meat and ends with appetizers, but my mother said that she forgot an important step: Feed pot roast to family for dinner. That is, the meat was cooked just like a pot roast. Which means you could make pot roast and make fancy French pate out of leftovers. :) Crumble leftover hamburgers into soups, chili, barbecue beans (towards the end since they're already cooked). If you steam meats to rewarm them they're nice in sandwiches. And, of course, they can always be used with leftover veg to make all kinds of delicious casseroles. The hard part is how to salvage a casserole that just wasn't that great to start with. What was wrong with it? Was it bland? Too acid? Too bitter? Too sweet? Wrong proportion of meat to cornbread? If there's something that just tastes off, or if it's too salty, you're better off tossing it. If it's too salty, you can try making it into soup. That won't work for everything, but a lot of casseroles are made out of stuff that's good in soup. Cut it small and break it up into water. Simmer for at least half an hour or until all the ingredients have absorbed as much water as they're going to. Taste the broth. If it's still too salty, add more water. You can add cornmeal if it's too thin, or some more meat and veg if there isn't enough. You can also use stock instead of water if it's homemade and has no salt in it. If a soup doesn't taste great to me, but has all good stuff in it, I usually add a generous amount of turmeric. It seems to make it better. :) I generally plan dishes specifically to have leftovers and/or freeze meals. Leftovers are convenience foods. I don't much like leftover turkey, but I'm not a big turkey fan. That's better for sandwiches, salads and hash, than slices on a plate. Sometimes, however, I just can't face 'em. There will be a perfectly nice piece of chicken left in the fridge and I just don't want it. That's when it's time to make chicken salad or an omelette, or something else it can be cut up in. |

We make salad often, either with dinner or for dinner, and I can never eat leftover salad the next day. Chicken salad, tuna salad, pasta salad yes but not any type of regular salad. I don't mind using leftover salads in a sandwich the next day thought so I will often do that or DH (Chris) has no problem eating any type of leftover food. He hates to see things go to waste. Also mashed potatoes - I don't know why I always make too much and cannot stand to eat it a second time. Casseroles and such I never have a problem eating a second time especially when they are good. Meats or fish I generally try to just cook what we will eat, it helps with waste and portion control - if I only make 2 pork chops then we will only eat one each, where as if I make 4 we will probably eat all four or at least 3.... I think a lot depends on how good the original dish was. If it was only passable the first time and you are hungry you won't mind eating it once, but twice probably not. Dh's mom has been staying with us off and on since the passing of her husband in March. We decided to make youvalakia (meatballs with rice mixed in and an avgolemeno sauce.) Well with three of us in the kitchen all competent cooks the sauce was more like a soup and not very good. (too many cooks in the kitchen...) Its not been touched by us since we ate it that first night and the dogs have been very happy with their dinners lately. |
The only thing I will eat "leftover" is my shrimp fried rice and egg foo yung. DH is in charge of cleaning out the fridge. He doesn't let anything go to waste. |
That's why they invented Fried rice, pizza, meatloaf, meat ball, -------------------, to use up leftover food. I find it very interesting to turn leftover into gourmet new dishes. Cinderella transformation. dcarch |
Stir Fry does not reheat well, so I try to make just as much as we will eat for one meal. However there are many dishes that I will intentionally make extra of so that I can freeze half for a quick weeknight meal. Linda |
We love leftovers. Either created into a new dish, or the same thing over again. I find burgers do reheat well, and taste just as good as the first time. I can't think of anything that doesn't reheat well, offhand, but I know there are some. Even though there are just the 2 of us, I tend to cook more than we eat at one meal. Everything just grows. Thank heavens we love leftovers. |

we have been grilling, smoking or rotis every weekend since the last snow fall early spring. With a big wood fired side box we cook for the day, Saturday, and use the fire space for meals for the week. I don't consider them leftovers as they are part of the creation of various meals. Garden in full production now i decide what will become what...fresh corn and lots of it is grilled in husks at the far end and becomes corn salsa etc and enjoyed that evening...salsa for salads all week. Smoked or rotis chicken makes a great chicken salad either Asian with toasted sesame or lots of veg and grapes, apples, olives. I always add an extra salmon fillet when we smoke on cedar planks with lemon and dill for Sunday morning leftovers. Love it warm, love it cold. A mixed seafood grill, if a prepped lemony fresh dressing is ready for tossing and chilled, is a lovely cold salad. A classic Italian seafood antipasto. Our burgers have improved since grinding our own and i will grill 4 and prep two for 'leftovers'. Enjoyed cold the next day. (never thought they would be good) but delicious though different. A bit like a great meatloaf sandwich with fresh tomato salsa and i've been making my own mustards. I always re-heat in the oven, covered to braise, then open to roast things like a half rotis chicken. I have created some failures, but solved that by adding something fresh like lemon and fresh herbs or any type of moisture when re-heating. If i'm clearly cooking for a later meal for tomorrow or a day or two later, i take it off the heat early, the grill, smoker, rotis, ...get it chilled as fast as possible knowing it will get a full cooking later. Avoids the drying out and over cooking 'leftover' taste. A braised and lightly smoked pork tip becomes shredded and sauced for tacos... If i have no plan i foodsaver and freeze it for an easy meal some stressed work day dinner. Then those 'leftovers' become a decent lunch over some sprouted mixed grains i've been consistently making once a week. I suppose my point is...if you have oven or grill space and have an abundance of produce...go ahead and cook more than you need for that evenings meal, but take off half of it early and toss it in a fresh marinade or fridge it. For a cold dish or a re-heat in the oven will 'finish' the cooking time. A squeeze of lemon works wonders on many dishes. |
There are many kinds of leftovers that I like, and I purposely make extra of some dishes so that we will have a second meal from them, but ... Two items that I don't like as leftovers come immediately to mind: Chinese take-out foods or homemade stir-fry, and dishes made with fish or seafood. It doesn't matter that I loved them the first time around. I think it has more to do with the smell than the taste, and it's a visceral response to the *thought* of the smell (IOW, I can just imagine it, and I know I don't want it). So those dishes are always saved for my DC (cousin). Like Mikey, he'll eat anything! |
There are very few dishes that I will eat as leftovers. REgardless of how good they were the first time around. I know many think that stew is better the next day. I don't . It tastes like leftovers. I never make meals ahead to freeze for the same reason. They taste like leftovers. Exceptions are homemade meat sauces, like Bolognese. I'll freeze extra. I like leftover chicken or turkey to use in sandwiches, hot or cold. But NOT to revamp into a pot pie. If making a chicken pot pie, I'll cook the chicken fresh just for that. Leftover Mexican. Like beans, and salsa, will get used in another meal. Fish and shellfish, have to be fresh, cooked same day, and if there are leftovers they get tossed. ~Ann |
I can't think of anything I won't eat left over. Shoot - I eat a lot of things cold! Grosses my family members out, lol. I do try to re-imagine things. Just the other day I braised chicken thighs and then used the leftovers for enchiladas on another night. I will agree that salad is probably my least favorite the next day...to the point where it might end up as compost if I'm not in the mood to worry about how wasteful it is. I try to make sure that there isn't any to save. |

Green Fettuccine With Asparagus, Basil and Butter
Serves 8.
Note: Green-on-green pasta is the essence of springtime. In a recipe with just a few ingredients, the resulting flavor depends on them being top-notch. This is the time to splurge on really good butter, if you're so inclined. For the asparagus, if stalks are thick, peel them, but it's not necessary with the skinny ones. From "The Italian Vegetable Cookbook," by Michele Scicolone.
• 4 tbsp. (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, divided
• 1/4 c. chopped green onions
• 2 lb. asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2-in. pieces
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• 1/4 c. water
• 1 lb. spinach fettuccine
• 1/2 c. shredded fresh basil
• 1/4 c. chopped fresh parsley
• 3/4 c. freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add the green onions and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add asparagus, salt and pepper to taste, and 1/4 cup water; cover and cook, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes or until the asparagus is crisp-tender.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Add the pasta, stir well and cook, stirring often, until cooked al dente. Scoop out some of the cooking water and set it aside. Drain the pasta.
Add the pasta to the pan with the asparagus, add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the basil and parsley, and toss well. If the pasta seems dry, stir in a little of the reserved cooking water.
Toss the pasta with half of the cheese, sprinkle the remaining cheese on top and serve immediately.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Turf Welcome Break
We were on a road trip to take our youngest (and last) son off to his Freshman year in college. This was our stop-over for the trip from Kansas City to South Carolina. From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty (although my wife thought it was more like the Kardashians). Whatever we needed was responded to with no problem. From the desk staff to the doorman to the maid service, it was by far our best experience at a Starwood property and I stay in these properties weekly for business. Thanks to all and I only regret I don't have any names to send a shout-out specifically,

Rated 5 out of 5 by pk8489 The ONLY place I'd stay!
SMC is like my home away from home. The staff make you feel like you've arrived at home; they make you feel like you are the most important guest they've had all year-on every stay. I love this hotel-it is warm and inviting, the rooms are always well maintained, and the hotel maids welcome you each day like family. This trip my stay was in the Andrew Jackson Suite-so lovely! This hotel is my answer to any kind of travel to Nashville.

Hotel was nice but could use some updates. Noticed the bathroom did not appear to have been cleaned well before we checked in. The food was excellent and the front desk staff were wonderful.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Gretchen08 Wonderful Weekend Getaway
My girlfriends and I came to Nashville for a relaxing and fun filled girls weekend. Your hotel definitely made our stay very enjoyable. You guys have a terrific facility and the staff was always quick to assist. There was no Diet Dr Pepper on the grounds but I will let you guys slide on that one. LOL!
The thing that made the trip amazing was the shuttle service. It was very accommodating! It left on time and was very reasonably priced. It also picked you back up in a safe, central location and the driver (Donovan) was great.
We will be sure an stay with you guys again soon.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Kev18 Great stay, with some improvement
My family arrived at the hotel on the first leg of our 3000 trip. Upon entering the hotel we felt relaxed and comfortable. Staff was A++. They were very attentive and helpful. Upon entering the room, we found a used mens sock on the floor at the bottom of one of the beds, that house keeping had not removed. We also found the bed sheets around the base of both queen beds were covered in yellow stains. It was a huge turn off and really grose. Both issues were brought to the attention of the staff, and it was addressed immediately and appropriately. Other than the 3 sanitary issues, the hotel it self is great, we enjoyed the pool facilities and the in house restaurant was top notch. We will stay again.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Starnight295 the staff was professional
This hotel seemed very nice. I am a gold member and I was not clear on their specific poicies on an upgrade. Apparentally they did not have an upgrade on the last day of my stay so they would not give me one for the first 2 days.Although I had a nice room I thought I had one with a different view for my balcony.

Rated 3 out of 5 by DONT A simple call back
My wife left a hand written mothers day card in the room. We called about 30 minutes after we left and spoke to the operator which sent me to the lost and found(housekeeping)to leave a message. I left a clear message and repeated it twice. NOTHING....So next day i called back AGAIN and left another message...GUESS WHAT not one call back and on this message i asked if they would PLEASE call me back either way just so I would know. I believe in business you should return the CUSTOMERS calls. For that reason i would give them the same respect that they have given me.NONE. I WONT BE BACK THANKS

We book a 2 room suite and when we got to the hotel they don't have any 2 room suite in the hotel. what they have is a larger room with a king bed and a pull out couch. My husband and I were traveling with my sister and we needed to seperate sleeping areas. We were stuck and had no ther choice.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Lauren71 Expected more for the price
The Room: No refrigerator or microwave. Coffee supplies were not adequate for even one morning. A previous guest had spilled syrup on the carpet next to the bed and on the table between the two chairs and housekeeping didn't clean it up. There was also a thick layer of dust on the phone and some lamp bases. Two of my traveling colleagues said they had bath robes in their rooms. I didn't.
The Food: It was OK, but for the price I expected much better. The servers were great.
Front Desk Staff: My room key quit working 4 times within 24 hrs. I was not happy. Each time the staff handled it great, except once. Of course, it is that one time that stands out the most. The girl escalated my frustration instead of apologizing.
June 24, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Quino The food department of this hotel is not up to SPG standards.
Although the hotel overall is indeed a 4 star hotel the food areas are less than desirable for lack of service, lack of alternatives from which to select and bad service. This hotel is good for sleeping and nothing more.
October 22, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Johnny23 Great hotel, very relaxing rooms
We really had a nice experience at this hotel over a 4 day period. The staff was pretty friendly and the rooms and beds were quite comfortable. We upgraded to the Club Floor level and highly recommend it as the rooms are larger and there is a free breakfast during the weekday mornings and 24 access to water and coffee in the Club Lounge. That was really nice for us. Our only complaint was in the fitness center locker room bathroom of which we found there were no chairs or benches to sit and dress after using the shower. Pretty difficult for elderly people who take swim/exercise classes there that we saw. But overall, we will certainly return and have already told others of the hotel and of our positive experience.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Connie005 Sheraton Music City
We have stayed at many fine hotels around the Nashville area, but the Sheraton Music City is our favorite by far. The ambiance of the lovely lobby, the courtesy and professionalism of the staff, the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms, and all the little extras like wi-fi, lobby bar, indoor and outdoor pools,exercise room, the courtyard, breakfast buffet, and free morning newspaper. They always run special room rates too. The proximity to the Briley Parkway makes it easy to get to anywhere we want to go in Nashville. It just feels like my family's home away from home!

Rated 4 out of 5 by rockydogz Don't eat here!!!!
I stayed at the hotel January 2012 and the rooms are excellent. The health club is quite nice and I took the shuttle to and from the airport and the young men were very enjoyable. I wanted a special breakfast and couldn't believe how incredibly poor the food and cook are for something as easy as breakfast. The had one type of cheese, no mushrooms, no spinach, and to make a simple omelet was out of the question. Great place to stay, but don't eat here. I'm a Starwood Platinum and had a couple of breakfast this week at other Starwood properties that were outstanding.

Rated 5 out of 5 Beautiful Hotel
This hotel was amazing. The guy who checked me in was super helpful and polite. I stupidly booked the wrong dates, he was able to still get me in, thankfully! The only thing that I was a little thrown off by was the staff on the overnight shift. I was in Nashville for my moms 52nd birthday. We went out drinking and came in around 2 am. We had some food from Loveless cafe we wanted heated up. We were told you had no microwaves and that she couldn't heat it for us either. I work at a 4 star property in Hollywood, Ca, if a guest needs anything we do it. Its that simple. But what was more disturbing was the fact that when we got to our floor, we saw a microwave sitting right in front of another guests door. A little strange.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bob2771 This hotel is out of the ordinary
This hotel is set off the beaten path into its own little world. Close to the airport, but surprisingly not annoying. Very nice pool area with a large adjoining patio area that has ample seating & tables & trees/shrubs. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The foyer area is large and nicely decorated. the food is good. The Club Lounge is OK - I've seen better, and not as good. I have stayed at over 30 SPG properties. As an SPG Platinum member, this is one of my favorite hotels. A relaxing & spacious & nicely decorated hotel.

Rated 5 out of 5 by amber7979 Amazing staff and beatiful public areas
I got a room at this hotel as a gift for my Dad and Step Mom for four nights. I have stayed at Starwood properties quite a bit, so I figured he wouldn't be disappointed. However, I was a tiny bit concerned that this hotel wouldn't be as great since it wasn't as expensive / was a lower category than ones that I have typically stayed at. I was pleasantly surprised when he called to tell me how beautiful the public areas of the hotel were and how well he had been treated.
He went on and on about how friendly the staff was and all the little extra perks that he was able to cash in on because of my preferred status.
Based on his feedback and pictures I would definitely recommend this hotel or stay there myself if I am ever in the area.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Sheri80 Not the best experience
My room was on the first floor. Had to drag my suitcase up a flight of stairs. No elevator. The room location was right by those stairs so all evening and through the night you heard people in the hall. Second night was a big event and at all hours people were yelling, running up and down the hall.
Beds were bad. Like slipping in a nest. No support.
Also could hear traffic all night.
September 29, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Okray A Better Than OK Stay
The room, bar and bar food and drink were what we expect from the Starwood name. Front Desk service was not so good. The manager on duty when we checked in seemed more interested in finding out what time we would be leaving - presumably to have the room quickly turned over. No personal "Starwood" greeting was forthcoming and as far as access to the Club Floor, we were told "Only Platinum Members". We have always had this access (we're Gold members) at other Starwood properties). Just seemed kind of cheap. Attractive and nicely laid out hotel.

The hotel is gorgeous, intimate, has a beautiful pool, balconies,lobby & piano bar! Food was very good. Rooms clean, nice size , quite with comfortable beds!!! You just can not find a better,more lovely place to stay! This staff knows how to make you feel spoiled! Good

Rated 1 out of 5 by Custer22 Excellent stay, too short
I stayed here after driving cross country in a 26 foot truck with my daughter. The night before my flight home I stayed here, my other choice was the floor of my daughter's apartment! I had a wonderful king sized bed in a large room with a patio that led out to the pool area. The bed was extremely comfortable had a great night's sleep. I'm only sorry I couldn't stay longer to enjoy the amenities available.
In the morning I had an easy shuttle ride to the airport. Thank you for a great stay, hope to return when I visit my daughter again.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Sandy97 Room was very clean!
Was not happy that I stayed at this hotel 2 weekends in a row and requested to be by our friends. Even had to call and give them my friends confirm #'s. When I checked in they didn't have me by my friends. Same floor but opposite sides of the hotel. Was very disappointed! I had majority of my team stay here both weekends. This hotel was out of the way for us but heard it was a nice place. Don't know if I would stay again due to spending almost 400.00 and having all my friends stay here and not getting what I was promised.

Rated 4 out of 5 by TC48 accomidating
The room was clean and comfortable. They let us bring our dog (which we saw many while we were there). I did not hear any other dogs on my entire stay. I did hear some late night (3:30am) guests laughing and stumbling about down the hall. I would imagine that this is a rare occurrence. I also was the chair person for an organization meeting in one of their meeting rooms (The Belmont room). Staff was quick to fix the only problem that we had and the room was set up very nicely.

Comments about Yes to Blueberries Healthy Hair Repair Conditioner, 11.5 fl oz:
I use this with the Yes to Carrots shampoo and my hair ends up being so soft! The conditioner smells more citrus-like than blueberries, but it's a nice and light smell.I also like this because it is gentle and doesn't have harsh ingredients like some products do. I actually used to feel itchy after using certain shampoos and conditioners because I have sensitive skin.The only thing I don't like as much that it takes a bit to rinse the conditioner out.
Excellent smoothing conditioner
By sunflowergirl
from Kansas
This is one of very best natural conditioners that I have found. I've been using it for several months and love it. It smooths frizzes and makes hair soft and manageable. Love it!
After shampooing, massage a generous amount of this awesome formula into hair and rinse. Yes to smooth, soft, tangle-free love. Now go get'em, tiger.

NO this is not 100 percent cotton. VERY cheaply made. The inner side of the pillow case is a paper like material. It looked so pretty in the picture, but it is not what you get. I won't be buying from overstock again.
At this time I am planning on returning the item. There were dark spots all through the quilt and one of the shams. I was disappointed.
This has a quality look with a very nice pattern. I looked around a lot and was very pleased with this purchase. Very pleased with this purchase.
I wanted to finish out the guest bedroom and this set worked perfectly!
I purchased two of these for a guest bedroom. They are very nice and appear to be of good quality. They look much more expensive then they are. I like the lightweight feel - perfect for here in Texas. Happy I made this purchase.
Better than I had expected!!! Lightweight, super soft, perfect quilt!!! Exactly what I was looking for!!! Thank you Overstock!!!
Beautiful, Quality, Perfect for Summer. LOVE this quilt on my bed. Wanted white but bought the Ivory when they didn't have white in the Cal King but it's a very light ivory and looks crisp and fresh. Still heavy enough to be cozy and comfortable. If I had any complaints it would be the shipping time. While I appreciate the shipping rate, it takes an incredible amount of time to receive my purchases. I guess it's a trade-off. Very happy with my quilt.
Very nice quilt and good quality for the money. Would recommend.
