Having SEX with My FRIENDS WIFE!??
Warning! This Dream is very SEXUALLY vivid, and for ADULTS ONLY!!
My dream starts out in a bedroom (somehow knowingly this is considered my room) although I have never seen or been in a room with this layout before in my life.
As dreams seem to be, things just fall into place. Without any invitations, phone calls, or emails to schedule somebody's visit.
So as explained above, I am sitting on my bed when an unexpected visitor comes walking through my door. Funny thing is it felt like I had already known she was coming over. Can't solidify the reason for the visit, but shes a few years younger then me and I noticed she was studying from a large textbook.
Things start to get boring as were not keeping up a conversation, nor are we participating in any friendly activities. We are pretty much two blank bodies in the same room. And as dreams skip from one event to the next, we are now slightly drunk. Had not taken a sip of alcohol but she is now naked from the waist down.
As she notices that I can see her gorgeous pussy staring right back up at me, she makes the slightest flirting gesture by shifting her position so that I can get a better glance, without me having to move an inch.
Now keep in mind, the feeling is still very tense and a bit hostel since we are nowhere near a "boyfriend girlfriend" status. We might have flirted once or twice before her marriage, but she is a happily married woman now and things have changed. Her husband, a good friend of mine. Not the best, but lets just say I would back him up if he were to get into a rowdy bar fight. Unfortunately tonight, sex is not something I would back our friendship by.
Back to the story! As she is lying there with her legs spread just ever so slightly, her eyes giving me the look that this may happen but only if you play your cards just right. Alcohol is in effect, although we are not past the point of no return. We know what is going on, and what may be to cum.
I take no more time, and pull out the quickest sarcastic trick that I had up my sleeve. A random red jello shooter sits to the left of me on a dresser. I immediately grab it as she turns her head away from my eyes. Pretend to let it slip out of my hand, and purposely let it drop right in between her legs. "Whoops, slipped right out!" I say.
And as any woman with the amount of beauty that she withholds, she calmly said "Why dontcha get it?" As I reach down with my hand, she shakes her finger from side to side and says, "Nope." So I freeze, and time stops for 2 seconds but to me its feeling like a weekend in hell, yet trapped in ice.
She then continues to finish her sentence, just as calmly as before "No, use your mouth." Without any hesitation, and a god-given talented tongue, I know that once I make contact, it's is a hook, line, sinker.
Sure enough as my instincts would prove correct again, the room fills with silent moans. She doesn't give up the fact that shes married yet, but the more and more she notices that, and the amount of moisture that is building up down there. It creates a fire of burning passion. A type of passion that is lost. A craving passion that only comes from the rebellious acts of doing something horribly wrong, and no sign of stopping because being bad just feels too good.
As we both share this feeling mutually through oral sex, she goes from a light moan, into a full on screams that could stop a mosh-pit at a Linkin Park concert.
She orgasms, legs shaking, lips quivering for more. Still in our minds, is the slightly distraught fact that we are actually about to start fucking, not having sex, not making love, hardcore fucking. The thought doesn't reach far enough for us to realize and before you know it, my shaft is already halfway inside her.
As all this heat and passion, flood my brain with thoughts of what a fantasy this is, in a lot of everyday lives. For example, married men who have beautiful wives, and the friends that wouldn't think twice about jeopardizing their marriage for an hour of ecstacy.
With such vivid steamy thoughts, I then start to feel myself want to cum way too fast. How embarrassing would that be, all that perfect timing and passion gone to waste at a quick unsatisfying orgasm? So I get a grip, start off rocking slowly back and forth, until she screams "Fuck me, HARDER!" As a good dog should, I continue with her request and within 30 seconds, her legs are shaking again. Hands grabbing on to random sections of the bed, looking for something to take her out of the deep pounding orgasm she is traveling through.
We go at it for about 25 minutes. At this point my I can choose exactly when to bust, but I take my time. This is not something I will find everyday. As I am enjoying myself, she starts to look a slight bit uncomfortable. So I ask her "whats wrong?" she says, "my pussy is really sensitive and its staring to hurt."
My mind quickly thinks of "Wow, someones not giving it to her right." and as that thought surfaces, I almost blurt it out as well. Instead I tell her "Ok, I'll make it fast." She agrees, I go exactly how I want to push into her.
I start to make the gestures that I am going to cum soon, and she quickly tells me not to cum inside of her. Once again, doing as a good dog should do, I pull out at the last second. Blow my load all over her gorgeous perky boobs, and with one last jerk, I send a small amount sky-rocketing towards where her eye meets her nose.
I smile, since this is slightly comedic. She laughs, and she starts to grab a tissue. We don't cuddle afterwards, we don't even share more then two sentences. We don't have much in common, nor do we care to know more and more about one another. Although now we understand that our communication is not through our voices, its through our rough passionate sex.
She then rolls over, puts her panties on nice and slow as if I am watching, which I am. Puts back on the rest of her clothes but doesn't leave right away. Having me wonder why?
Little did I know, there is a full on party going on downstairs. In my house that I didn't even have a clue that I owned. While I am trapped in my room, which is supposedly mine as well. With a girl, who is most definitely not anywhere close to mine.
Her best friend comes storming through the door. Already buzzed, loud, but looking sexy as always. Gives me no attention and only is concerned about where her friend was the whole time.
She then takes a seat on the bed, puts her arms out for support, then jumps up and screams "ewww!!!" Without looking at each other, the married woman and I both know what shes complaining about.
The mixture of male and female orgasms mixed into one gross moisture, and all scattered across the bed sheet like a shotgun shell had exploded.
The married woman stay standing there, red handed, looking like her face was going to change from gorgeous Hawaiian tan to pale 1900′s white, says nothing. No words can leave her mouth, she is literally stuck.
We both know at this moment that if her friend is to find out what happens, the little rat she is. This amazing sex will not continue ever again.
So I quickly try my best to persuade in one single quick honest sentence to get the tension out of the room. Keep in mind her friend is a ditzy, slightly drunk blonde, known for being gullible. Shouldn't be that hard to get out of this one.
I immediately attack my own ethnicity and tell her, "Ha Ha, don't freak out Beth. I made some Oishi Ramen soup, Kayla just knocked my elbow and since I didn't want to burn ourselves my instinct threw the bowl away from us and it ended up hitting my bedsheets. Shitty, I know."
Kayla, the married woman then chimes in "Yeah, im kinda drunkies." Trying to act cute and sway Beth off the subject anyway possible. Once again, as I suspected, it worked!
She grabs Kayla by the hand and in a bitchy tone, Beth says "have fun with the mess!" I sigh a big sigh of relief. And as Kayla gets pulled fast out the doorway, she turns and gives the sexiest wink I have ever seen. A wink that shows promise in that this is not the last time we share passion like that. A wink that could halt a military general from pursuing an attack on enemy grounds. And at that point, I puffed my chest, stood up tall, and walked downstairs to enjoy my party.
Please send me a link to one of your dreams, I would love to read it!

Interpretation #1
The vivid description of such intercourse depicts that your mind is obsessed about making love. The fact that you did it with your friend's wife means that you do not really have much of principles when it comes to making love. So, the dream is showing you signs of your upcoming adventures in life. However, there is a warning that you should try to be cautious because things may not work out. However, your smooth lie in the end saved you from what could have been a possible disaster. Thus, the dream is reflecting on the possibility of some passionate love making in the near future.

Guy & the friend's wife must be eager to have sex together for the long time. May be to due to not getting an opportunity in the absence of her husband or his wife. The best way to fulfill is to reach her & fix up a time or date for a suitable opportunity. Make the best use of her lonely time & be available when she needs you. As that is the only way to fulfill your urge for sex.
Other options if find some one as your back up.

Sarlae McAlpine
I grew up on remote, sub-tropical Norfolk Island and developed a love and respect for the world around me at a very early age. I moved to the 'mainland' in 2005 to study Astrophysics at the Australian National University (ANU). I was soon brought back down to earth after discovering I could pursue my love of Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics together in the fascinating and multidisciplinary science of geology.
I completed a Bachelor of Science degree majoring in Chemistry and Geology with Honours in Geology. My Honours project was set in the Italian Alps and specialised in Metamorphic Petrology. This field focuses on the composition and texture of rocks which have undergone chemical, mineralogical and textural changes due to pressure and temperature extremes.
My PhD, at the Research School of Earth Sciences at the ANU was the study of a green crystalline rock called peridotite. I studied peridotite-cored "basalt bombs" which erupted in three volcanic arcs in the Western Pacific. I studied the mineral and chemical composition of both the basalt host rocks and their rare peridotite cores. Studying rocks of this type improves our understanding of the underlying mantle in this complex tectonic region, and processes within arc systems globally.
Geoscience Australia's Graduate Program offers me an opportunity to work in an agency that directly contributes to economic, social and environmental benefits for the Australian community. By participating in multiple rotations throughout the year I look forward to undertaking meaningful research in a range of scientific disciplines.
My first rotation project involves measuring the surface deformation of Merapi Volcano using a satellite monitoring technique called synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR). Merapi is the most active volcano in Indonesia and this project has applications for future real-time monitoring of surface deformation caused by the intrusion of magma beneath volcanoes.

Great for gardening, this bugger does the job. The only thing I find is if digging in rock with the 2 prong it feels as if the prongs are going to bend but they haven't yet. I am a back yard gardener and don't use a tiller. I saw this and had to have it. So far after 2 months of planting I have used this in every row and it holds up well. Wish it was stronger steel but

We really like the tool, but about a month after purchase the handle split. The warrenty replaced it, so all is good.

This was the perfect tool for our flower beds that were overcome by weeds!! It also helps with the garden. Great all around tool. The only thing that would improve it would be to give it the fiberglass handle. I highly recommend it though!!

Filed under: Injury
Why do some people with devastating injuries do well in their recoveries and others do not? People often focus on the negative fallout, but there can be positive consequences called post-traumatic growth. Scientists use the term "disability paradox" to refer to how some people with devastating illness or injuries are still able to enjoy a good quality of life. The characteristics of these folks describe someone with a "survivor mentality." Characteristics include:
- Subscribing meaning to one's disability or lot in life and sharing this meaning with others.
- Not choosing to live as a victim but instead to feel empowered and motivated to deal with struggles and come out as a victor.
- Being flexible, adaptable, resilient, and rolling with the punches.
Many factors play into developing a survivor mentality. Here are some tips to help:
- Create a strong support system: family, church, community, fellow Warfighters, healthcare providers, etc. A support system should be just that—supportive, encouraging, and a promoter of independence, not an enabler for being or feeling like a victim.
- Maintain a "can do" attitude. See challenges or setbacks as an opportunity to learn and grow. Focus on strengths and abilities, not on limitations. Survivors exhibit the 4 Cs of mental toughness.
- Maintain hope and optimism; focus on the future and move from thinking about the negative aspects of injury/illness to focusing on the positives or possibilities.
Have you ever felt great after a hard workout, only to find yourself incredibly sore a day or two later? Muscle pain a day or so after exercise is common among recreational athletes. Known as delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), this condition can be treated at home—and possibly even prevented—with simple techniques. Strategies to prevent or reduce DOMS include stretching, protein/carbohydrate recovery drinks, and cold-water immersion. Over-the-counter medications can also help with pain but should be used infrequently and at the lowest effective dose. For more detailed information about DOMS and how to prevent and recover from it, read HPRC's Answer, "Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness."
Antigravity treadmills are becoming increasingly popular in injury prevention and rehabilitation settings. These special treadmills reduce the stress placed on the lower body during rehabilitative exercises, like running and walking, while still conditioning muscles. However, there are still questions as to whether the scientific evidence supports their considerable cost. For more about the use, evidence, and cost of these devices, read HPRC's "Effectiveness of Antigravity Treadmills for Injury Rehabilitation."
Being able to be close and sexual are key aspects of intimate relationships. Warfighters struggling with PTSD, TBI, or other combat injuries may be surprised to find that injuries can impact their ability to have sex, derive pleasure from sex, or be intimate by connecting emotionally with their partner. Or conversely there might be too much emphasis on sex (engaging in or talking about it inappropriately).
To learn more, check out these two fact sheets from the Uniformed Services University: "Reintegration and Intimacy: The Impact of PTSD and Other Invisible Injuries" and "Physical Injury and Intimacy: Managing Relationship Challenges and Changes." Both include suggestions for how to improve intimacy.

You've been training, and now you're in pain. It could be you're having a painful introduction to one of your tendons. Strong tendons connect your muscles to the bones in your body and help you move by pulling on the bones when your muscles contract. Damage to tendons can occur from repetitive activities (including running and firing your weapon repeatedly over an extended period of time) or from sudden movements that put too much stress on a tendon. If you can't avoid these activities, then pay attention to the warning signs that a tendon could be reaching its breaking point: pain, especially when moving the affected area; swelling over the area of pain; and, possibly, loss of motion in the joint.
The best way to avoid having to get treatment for tendonitis is to prevent it from happening in the first place! Follow these tips:
- Overall health: Maintain a healthy diet and weight, and check out HPRC's Nutrition domain.
- Posture and body mechanics: Pay attention to your posture and make sure that you use correct body mechanics, especially when lifting and moving heavy objects.
- Maintain adequate muscle strength so your body can react to stresses you place on it.
- Maintain adequate flexibility.
- Consider proper workout gear, especially footwear; check out this HPRC article for more information.
How do get yourself back into your training program if you are suffering from tendonitis? The American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine and the Cleveland Clinic recommend the following:
- Activity modification: Rest the affected area. This could mean taking some time off from activities that cause pain and further damage. For example, if you're a runner with Achilles tendonitis, try biking instead until the tendon has healed enough.
- Ice: Cold can help to decrease pain and swelling.
- Physical therapy: Gentle stretching and strengthening exercises, as well as massage, might help but should be done under the supervision of a healthcare provider.
- Anti-inflammatory medications: Ask your physician about medications that can help your condition.
- Bracing or casting might be needed in severe cases.
You should see your doctor right away if you experience fever, redness, and warmth in the affected area, or multiple sites of pain. For more information on injury prevention, check out HPRC's "Preventing common injuries," which covers six specific areas of injury: wrist and hand, knee, ankle, rotator cuff, back, and IT band.
Injury prevention is critical in maintaining optimal performance and operational readiness. Ankle sprains, knee pain, and back pain are very common injuries in the military. Take the time now to protect yourself from injury, and you'll be glad you did later. Read our performance strategies to help fend off common military and athletic injuries, compiled from our recent injury prevention series of posts.
Chondromalacia is a knee problem that can have a number of different symptoms, including pain. It can your ability to exercise, but even more problematic is that it can interfere with your ability to meet the demands of your military duties.
Here's the basic rundown on chondromalacia: In a healthy state, the kneecap has soft cartilage beneath that allows the bone to glide smoothly against the other bones of your knee joint. When the smooth surface wears away, the back of the kneecap becomes rough and rubs the other bone surfaces, causing pain. The key to avoiding this condition is maintaining that smooth surface.
According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, muscle weakness, imbalance, or tightness in the thigh muscles can contribute to chondromalacia. It's important to maintain strength in your quadriceps and hamstring muscles; follow a strength-training program to develop and maintain strong muscles. Also, make sure that you have enough flexibility in your quads; if the muscles and tendons are too tight, they can force the kneecap to move or "track" incorrectly in the natural groove of your knee joint. If you do a lot of running, make sure your footwear isn't old and worn, because the shock-absorption of shoes decreases as they age. When it comes to knee pain, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Strengthen and stretch your muscles, and you'll be on your way to keeping your knees ready for action.
Barefoot-style, or minimalist, running shoes are still growing in popularity in the military, and the debate continues over whether this style of running prevents injuries or just causes different injuries. There is new research on minimalist running shoes (MRS) and their impact on lower leg and foot injury. After a 10-week study, runners who transitioned to Vibram FiveFinger minimalist running shoes showed signs of injury to their foot bones, while the runners who used traditional running shoes showed none. The types of injuries the MRS runners demonstrated were early signs of inflammation, which may or may not be associated with pain or joint dysfunction. If they are, it might be difficult for the runner to know he/she is actually injured until it is too late and the injury has progressed. More research is needed to determine if other factors (weight, running form/style, mileage, running surface) contribute to injuries associated with barefoot-style running. At least one recent study suggests running style may be a factor. For more in-depth information, read HPRC's InfoReveal.
Most of us will experience pain at some point in our lives, and Warfighters—in training or in theater—are obviously at an even greater risk. For that reason, pain management has become a priority for the military. Committed to being a comprehensive Warfighter resource, HPRC now has pain management information, tools, strategies, and resources. You'll also find answers to some of the most common questions about pain, including:
- What is pain?
- Why do some people tolerate pain better than others?
- What is the difference between acute and chronic pain?
- What happens if pain becomes chronic?
- What sorts of things affect my pain?
- How do the DoD and VHA treat pain?
Being overweight puts you at risk for a whole host of health issues, but most people don't think about the risk posed to their knees. The anterior cruciate ligament, or ACL, is one of the major ligaments of the knee and one of the most susceptible to injury. Injury information on more than 1,600 men and women at the U.S. Naval Academy showed that those with a higher body mass index (BMI) had a greater incidence of ACL tears. A difference in BMI of only 1.2 (25.6 versus 24.4) made the difference between having and not having this kind of injury. (To learn more about BMI, read HPRC's explanation.)
Like the adage "You don't know what you've got until it's gone," knees are something we generally take for granted. To stay on top of your game, you need your knees. An easy way to protect them is to drop the extra weight you're asking them to carry around.

Our stay was so wonderful and really exceeded our expectations. We had such a very nice time and enjoyed out hosts so much. They were very informative and interesting. The location was perfect and the breakfast was delicious each morning;and, each evening there was a nice surprise dessert waiting for us when we returned. Eleanor even shared some of her wonderful recipes. We hope to come back soon. Tony and Eleanor, thanks for your kind and warm hospitality. Betty and Tim Mitchell.

Raven Haven is stupendous! Eleanor and Tony are superb hosts and anticipate your every need. The rooms are thoughtfully and tastefully decorated, not to mention impeccably clean. I can't wait for a future stay when the gardens are in bloom. Absolutely a lovely stay in every way.

Tony and Eleanor were so welcoming, and the room we had was the Casablanca Room. We slept really well in this lovely quiet location, waking to a wonderful breakfast which included a choice of dishes, some being Eleanor's own creations, all of which were delicious. There was a choice of drinks, hot water, coffee and soft drinks, and we felt very at home, and felt valued as guests. We had freedom to come and go as we pleased, and the property is set back from the road, but within an easy drive of Mentone's centre. Thank you for some great memories which we shall take back to England with us.

Eleanor and Tony have such a beautiful home and they generously welcomed me for a weekend visit. Their gardens and every detail were immaculately done. Tony handled the reservation and all communications quickly and made sure I had just what I wanted. Eleanor even cooked delicious gluten-free food to accommodate my dietary needs. I felt like I was at home with 'mom' - she even left me a yummy apple crumble on the sideboard when i came in late one night. Every bite of breakfast was perfect. Both of them were kind and generous, with delightful humor and graciousness. I look forward to staying at Raven Haven again soon!

This was, by far, the best B&B experience we have had. Very friendly and accommodating hosts. Very clean rooms. Great food. Great setting.

My husband and I journeyed to Mentone over the weekend and had the very pleasant opportunity to stay at Raven Haven. We were immediately made welcome, even though we arrived early. The inn is located in a beautiful, peaceful setting just outside town. It is exceptionally clean and inviting--you feel "at home" from the minute you arrive. The beds are comfortable, the fellowship wonderful and the food is absolutely extraordinary. Each room is themed and the Casablanca room is very romantic and handicap accessible. From the evenings special dessert to the wonderful gourmet breakfast our stay was wonderful, If you are looking for some R&R or just a chance to reconnect with nature, spirit or that special someone, Raven Haven is well worth the trip! You will NOT be disappointed.

My husband and I have been to Raven Haven twice now, and even sent my parents there for their anniversary. We have never met a sweeter couple than Tony and Eleanor. It truly feels like we are coming home. They go above and beyond to make your stay unforgettable. There is a homemade dessert waiting for you each evening when you return from dinner that is out of this world good. I haven't had anything that compares with the breakfasts. There is something new every morning and it is some of the most delicious food that I have ever eaten. I would recommend this place to anyone! You won't be disappointed.
5 on July 22, 2013
This was our first B&B experience; was booked by my parents for us, whom had already stayed here. We felt right at home with the warm friendly welcome and personal touches on everything. Everything was very clean and comfortable. The garden is beautiful and the breakfast is out of this world! We will be returning next year! Highly recommended!!

We booked a night with Raven Haven for our 33rd Anniversary. What an exciting surprise. Tony and Eleanor were incredible hosts and took great pride in our comfort for the night. The Casa Blanca Room was better than described on their website and I didn't want to get up the next day I slept so soundly. The ability to relax and not listen the cars driving by your room all night was great and a walk of their grounds displays a love of gardening. Just sitting under the gazebo in a rocking chair and listening to the birds and the fountain were a delight. Breakfast was incredible and reflects Eleanor's delight in making sure that not only do you have plenty, but variety as well. Tony's method of cooking a breakfast ham will have you coming back for seconds. We'll be back and next time we have to decide whether to book the nautical room or the prairie room to try them all.

My daughter and I stayed in the Casablanca Room the Friday night before our Mother & Daughter weekend at Camp Skyline. We had a very peaceful nights sleep. It was so quiet! The bed was super comfy and the room was beautifully decorated. My daughter thought the pictures of Humphrey and Ingrid were actually of Tony and Eleanor. Tony and Eleanor were delightful hosts and great cooks. Eleanor surprised us with homemade scones! We will definitely stay here again!! Michelle Little

My family and I have stayed at Raven Haven Bed and Breakfast 16 times! Each and every time was outstanding! It is always very clean and has such a "home" feeling. The breakfast is never anything but perfect! Tony and Eleanor have a gift of making everyone feel welcome. They always go out of their way to make you comfortable and feel as if you're at home.

My wife and I chose Raven Haven to celebrate our recent anniversary. We have stayed in B & Bs in the past but not often. Most times we are just looking for a good clean motel in which to spend the night. Because my wife is a mountain lover she selected Mentone as a good place to visit. Reading reviews, especially of the menu offerings, helped us decide on Raven Haven. As you can see from our ratings above, we found everything to be top-notch. One couldn't ask for better hosts. Tony and Eleanor were thoughtful and considerate, available when needed but non intrusive. My wife thoroughly enjoys visiting new restaurants and trying her taste-buds on new dishes. Even so, she managed to taste a couple of new, deliciously prepared breakfast items. There were several others that were new to me and they were all delicious. The room we shared was large, clean, well appointed and very comfortable. We did have opportunity to see the other rooms and thought any one would have been just as pleasing. We found the Mentone area beautiful to drive through and visited several points of interest. Everywhere we stopped we found that "southern hospitality" that travelers often speak of, and would not hesitate to recommend the area to anyone who likes the mountains.

We can not say enough about how wonderful and peaceful our weekend stay was with Tony and Eleanor at the Raven Haven. We have never stayed at a B&B before and immediately felt safe and like family. We were pampered to the point of feeling like royalty with the gourmet home cooked breakfast, afternoon sweets treat, dessert in the evening and the morsels of chocolate left on our turned down bed with a sweet note at the end of the day. If you want to get away from it all and be pampered at the same time, this is the place to stay. We are already planing another trip there in the spring with friends to see the beautiful grounds in full bloom and just kick back for a few days. The gardens were gorgeous and whimsical. Thank you again Tony and Eleanor, for a wonderful restful weekend. Donna and Randy Underwood.

We just returned from spending our anniversary at Raven Haven. Tony and Eleanor were charming hosts. The rooms are wonderful and my wife fell in love with the gardens. Every breakfast was a gourmet affair that couldn't be beat in any 5 star restaurant. If you are looking for a quiet place to escape to with your special someone this is the place.
5 on September 24, 2012
Coming to Raven Haven is, indeed, like coming home. The charming setting, furnishings, peacefulness, and delicious food (Oh, the food!) made for an unforgettable stay. But it is Eleanor and Tony who make Raven Haven the truly excellent experience it is! Their friendliness and graciousness is beyond compare. By the time we left we felt we were leaving old friends. This was our first visit, but certainly not our last. This place tugs at your heartstrings! Bill and Flo
5 on September 15, 2012
Can't wait to return! This was our fourth visit and hope there will be many more. Tony and Eleanor have to be the best B&B host and hostess in the southeast. We stayed in the Casablanca room this time but each room is as nice as the other and the breakfast is beyond belief with all the homemade sides etc. And then there are the gardens! We spent more time outside than inside strolling through the beautiful flowers and shrubs and couldn't believe there wasn't a fee for that part of our stay! Can't wait 'til next time!

My wife and I spent a portion of week at Raven Haven to celebrate our 40th anniversary and were blown away at the beautiful surroundings & hosts! We can't wait for a return visit!
5 on September 03, 2012
The most peaceful B&B we've ever stayed in. The surroundings are quiet and relaxing; the gardens delightful, and Tony and Eleanor are the most helpful and kindest hosts we've ever experienced. The breakfast was DELICIOUS. If you're looking for a place to relax and reflect among a beautiful natural setting, this is the place for you. We cannot wait to have time for a longer stay! Rick and Nanci Clark, Slocomb, AL

We spent our 40th wedding anniversary at RH. It was an outstanding experience and we would highly recommend this BB to others. The host were wonderful.
5 on August 05, 2012
We only got to stay one night but it was great! We stayed in the Prarie Room, Tony and Eleanor have a great time with the decorating. The room was spotless, the friendlyness of the Teverinos in exceptional. We had a good time roaming thru their gardens. Will return if in the area. Bill and Jane Ross
5 on August 04, 2012
One of the very best getaways we have had. The owners of the Raven haven in Mentone, AL make you feel very welcome. The unique food was wonderful. Will surely go again.
5 on May 23, 2012
This is the first B&B my wife and i have ever been to, and it was a great time. The rooms were clean, and comfortable. The landscape was really nice and was so relaxing to walk around. Anthony and Eleanor was the best host, and if you needed anything at any time they would be right there for you. The breakfast was the best. Eleanor is a great cook. The main reason we liked it so much is they made you fill right at home. We will go back for sure.
5 on April 22, 2012
Returning to Raven Haven after several years was just like coming home. Tony and Eleanor Teverino are so warm and welcoming, and they provide the perfect setting for a quiet, restful getaway. I highly recommend.
5 on April 21, 2012
My 90-year old Mother and I stayed at Raven Haven last night. It was a wonderful experience. The hosts are the nicest people you would ever want to meet. The house and grounds are beautiful and immaculate. I have stayed in many bed and breakfasts and I can honestly say that they are one of the very best. I would highly recommend a stay with them.

Raven Haven is a beautiful house in a beautiful mountain location with beautiful fall colors. The proprietors are a wonderful couple who made us feel at home and serve a wonderful, huge breakfast.
5 on November 06, 2011
We needed a quiet and peaceful place to unwind and this was by far the quietest and most peaceful place we've stayed in the Mentone area in the last 15 years. Tony and Eleanor were exceptional hosts. Our only regret was that we had to leave so soon. We will definately be back.
5 on October 29, 2011
My sister and I spent one night at Raven Haven in October. Loved the hospitality, food and quiet, beatutiful surroundings.
5 on October 28, 2011

A wonderfully pleasant, quiet, beautiful place. Tony and Eleanor make it feel better than home!
5 on September 02, 2011
This is the cleanest, most accomodating place we have ever stayed. The food is fabulous and Tony and Eleanor are so friendly and go the "extra mile" to make you feel at home. We have gone numerous (over 20) times and each time we are pleasantly suprised with something unique and delicious for breakfast. Don and Betty Blackburn
5 on August 01, 2011
Accommodations are the best, food is the best, the grounds are well-kept with pretty flowers to enjoy, the hosts go above and beyond to make your stay great.
5 on July 17, 2011
My husband and I decided to run away from home this weekend, and were referred to the Raven Haven by another B&B. Much to our surprize we were able to get a room sight unseen. We quickly made it to the inn only to find the most beautiful and truely scenic property. We were greeted by Tony and Eleanor, our wonderful hosts, and shown to our beautiful room. They took wonderful care of us, made reservations for dinner at the Wildflower Cafe, and even had dessert waiting for us when we got back. We sat on the veranda with some of the other guests talking till after 10:00. This morning, our breakfast could not have been better! I highly reccommend a vist to the Raven Haven, I know we will be back!!
4.6 on July 04, 2011
My wife and I enjoyed a night away and a day on our motorcycles. Tony & Eleanor were fantastic hosts. You feel welcome from the moment you arrive. The set up our evening plans and had desert waiting for us when we returned. Breakfast was fantastic and everyone joining around the breakfast table was a real blessing for my wife and I. We plan to bring our parents back next time, as they will really enjoy the finely cared for grounds. It has been over 10 years since our last visit to Mentone, but we will not stay away that long again.
5 on June 13, 2011
We stayed at Raven Haven for 2 nights in the Nautical Room while going to the Rhododendron Festival each day. We have been staying at B&Bs for the last 25 years and RH is the best. The breakfasts are fantastic with at least six selections at each meal as well as coffee, juice, and muffins. There is always plenty to eat. Coffee and hot water for tea is available around around the clock clock and Eleanor prepares special desserts for the evening after dinner at a local restaurant. The rooms are always clean and neat and each evening the beds will have a special message and a candy and mint. The hosts provide everything that is needed to ensure a pleasant stay. The grounds and gardens are lovely. There is a walking trail through the small wooded area behind the RH where one can see several species of birds. The walking area is especially helpful in working up and appetite prior to the wonderful breakfast. All in all, RH is a great place to relax, enjoy good food, good friends, and a joyous weekend.
5 on June 06, 2011
This get away was a gift from friends who knew we really enjoy going to B&Bs more than the typical resort. This one had everything you could ask for and more. I especially love flower gardening and Tony and Eleanor made you feel like you had come home and they welcomed you like lost relatives. The food was delicious and we can't wait for the chance to go back for another visit.
4.4 on May 30, 2011
When you pull up to Raven haven, You are instantly made comfortable and the owners Anthony and Eleanor go out of their way to make your visit wonderful. The 10 acre grounds are landscaped like a botanical garden -- we walked through and being avid gardeners, we were delighted at the collection of flowering perennials. The food was truly wonderful, they prepared home made snacks in the evening! The rooms were very comfortable, furnished better than any hotel. It was a delightful visit and we will return soon.
5 on April 08, 2011
My husband and I spend our honeymoon at the Raven Haven in March of 2000 in the Casablanca room and decided to come back for our 11th Anniversary. This time around, we decided to stay in the Nautical Room. It was fabulous. Both Tony & Eleanor remembered us and treated us just like family. They made every effort to ensure our comfort. I highly recommend this B&B to anyone looking to get away for the night or longer. The gardens are absolutely breathtaking.
5 on February 17, 2011
My husband and I spent 3 days there. It was a surprise from my husband for Valentines Day. We stayed in the Casablanca room. It was gorgeous. The B&B was so warm and comfortable. The smells of candles and baked goodies made it like being at home. The breakfast each morning was delicious!!! We recommend this B&B to all our family and friends. We will definitely be back. Tony and Eleanor, the Innkeepers, were wonderful. They were two of the sweetest people we have ever come across in our lives. They were a joy to sit and talk to. Endless stories about thier lives, where they met, came from, how they came to be where they are today. They make you feel like family instantly. We love them to death. If we had to rate it, we would give it an A+++ from the moment we arrived until we left. They took such good care of us and made us feel so welcomed in their home. They had my roses sitting on a table with a candle and chocolates. Eleanor made my favorites, chocolate covered strawberries. I can't wait to go back and make new memories!!!.
4.8 on December 19, 2010
There are no negative reviews. Everything is true and does not need repeating. Hosts are sincere, earnest, and tops in everything they do. Especially enjoyable for Christians, republicans, or both.
Innkeeper Response

Vi and I would like to thank you and your wife for making our stay with you so pleasant. We enjoyed our short stay immensely. The company was great, the food excellent, and the setting very relaxing and enjoyable. THANK YOU!!! The Raven Haven is a very pleasant drive from the Atlanta area. When you arrive you know instantly the owners are wonderful friendly people. Being just off the beaten path makes the setting very relaxing and restful. Be sure and visit the caves in the area and take the tours of them. Enjoy your stay at the Raven Haven.

We travel to Mentone every year for the "Miatas At Mentone" event. We stayed at Raven Haven for the third time this year and we enjoy the B&B as much as the Miata driving.

Let Him Fly LyricsArtist: Linda EderAlbum: Storybook It's not a touch it's not a gaze It's not how we hold on but how we grow It's standing by and letting go It's not the beauty of making someone yours Love sets us free Loves opens doors Love sends move on Stand on your own Love knows when someone else meets to rise and walk along Life pass the change Don't wonder why He needs to feel the light of the open sky If we hold on too tight How can a dream take flight Open your arms And let him fly It's not just pulling someone very near It's having faith instead of fear You can't hold someone back when his dream calls Love is a hole that has no walls Yes he may disappear There's no way to know You take that chance You let him go Chorus: Go find your dream Be who you are I want much for you Than I wish upon a star Move from my side I will not cry If you remember me Love can never die Love lets the life break through Now love will help me too Open my arms and let him fly It's not it's not goodbye Someday you'll fly high Chorus

Everyone needs concealer. I like to apply it with the top of the ring finger (it's the weakest and, therefore, gentlest finger to use on the skin) and blend it with a Flat Concealer Brush. Start with a minimal amount, especially on blemishes, and gradually build up coverage for the most natural and least noticeable effect.

There was something special about Jorgie Porter from the moment the Hollyoaks star stepped onto the ice.
As her pro-partner Matt Evers said, the petite blonde actress is fearless and like "a sponge", desperate to take in every experience Dancing on Ice has afforded her, from trying gravity defying lifts to pulling on spandex and sequins every weekend.
In an exclusive interview with Matt, the US hunk told stv.tv reporter Laura Boyd: "I think I have fallen in love with Jorgie, you heard it here first.
"She's an incredible actress first and foremost, she's an incredible person, not jaded by the industry by any means.
"What I love is she's infectious but also she's just this sponge she wants to soak this in so much and enjoy the ride." And she's certainly done just that…
On week one of the series, we saw Jorgie and Matt set the bar when they delivered an emotional, beautiful routine to Skinny Love. Jorgie scored an impressive 18.5 points and head judge Robin Cousins told her: "That was one of the strongest opening routines we have had on any series of Dancing On Ice." Praise indeed.
Week three saw the couple return with a fun filled, sexy secretary skate to Dolly Parton's Nine to Five, which also blew the judges away.
On week four, it was a battle of the soap stars as Emmerdale heartthrob (and Jorgie's closest rival) Matthew Wolfenden took on Jorgie in the DOI Duel, complete with those memorable PVC outfits!
Week 5 allowed Jorgie to go top of the class with a poptastic routine to Britney Spears' Baby One More Time.
In week six, Jorgie gained the highest score of the series so far, when she and Matt wowed with a breathtaking skate to Alicia Keys Fallin'.
Week seven and Jorgie turned up the energy with an ice melting routine to dance favourite Louder.
The 24-year-old's week 8 performance was one of the most dramatic of the series after Jorgie accidentally kicked Matt's face during the dress rehearsals when they were practising an extremely dangerous lift.
Despite being rushed to hospital, Matt returned in time for the show, complete with splint on his nose, and the pair performed a dramatic, gothic inspired skate to Evanescence's Bring Me To Life – a complex routine which was praised by the judges.
Week 9 – everyone went crazy for Jorgie's Beyonce skate to Crazy in Love but week 10 was her most difficult and controversial performance, as she ended up bottom of the judges' leaderboard – much to the disgust of fans.
The star performed beautifully with a ribbon on 'Props Week', skating to Lana Del Rey's moving hit Video Games, but it failed to strike a chord with the judges and Louie Spence dubbed the skate "bland and boring"… and the public weren't happy with the marks.
Thanks to the power of the voting viewers, Jorgie was put through and came back in the semi-final with two incredible skates – the first, a confident performance to Florence and the Machine's Shake it Out and the second, a showcase of the skills she has mastered throughout her time on the show, with a near perfect routine in the Ultimate Skills test.
But the competition is tough this year on DOI and Jorgie ended up in the skate-off with fellow actress Jennifer Ellison.
Maintaining her admirably cheery disposition, she took to the ice with Matt and once again wowed with her routine, which saw the judges send her through to the final.
Can Jorgie triumph over Matthew Wolfenden and Chico to be crowned Ice Queen 2012? We'll find out on Sunday when the Dancing on Ice 2012 final kicks off at 6.50… how exc-ice-ting!

Florida Man Bites Off Girlfriend's Thumb On the Way To Taco Bell
Ricardo Davis |
Well, this is Florida, so you already know that Option C is the winner.
Police in Palm Bay say Davis and the girlfriend, who hasn't been identified, started arguing on the way to the fast food chain where she worked when things turned violent.
"During the course of the drive down to work, they got into a verbal argument, and she basically became upset. She kind of pushed his head, and he responded by biting," Yvonne Martinez, a department spokeswoman, tells Florida Today. "He bit (her thumb) completely off and spit it out on the floorboard."
The girlfriend rushed to the hospital, where a nurse called police as doctors tried to reattach her thumb.
"The woman continued to say, 'I can't believe he bit my finger off,'" Martinez tells Florida Today.
Ultimately, doctors weren't able to save the thumb, and police tracked Davis down to his home.
The thumb-biter, who is 35 years old, now faces a charge of aggravated battery.

Lucy Waverman's Homemade Ketchup
From Delish
Homemade presents are always a hit. Here is a recipe from my new book A Year in Lucys Kitchen, which will add a little spice to the cold winter season. This spicy tomato ketchup is great with chicken and even better with burgers. I also like it beside plain pan-fried fish, or as a dip for potato chips or French fries. It will keep in the refrigerator for about 1 month, or it can be frozen.

'Hardest Hiking Trail in the East'
October 12, 2011
It took 22 hours and 52 minutes, but this week the Gear Junkie crew completed a fast and light trek of the Devils Path, the often-cited "hardest hiking trail in the East." The trail, in New York's Catskill Mountains, gets this name because of its ceaselessly vertical nature — in 27 miles the path climbs and descends six major peaks, racking up a total of 14,000 cumulative vertical feet of gain/loss over its knee-crushing course.
A crew of three — myself, GearJunkie contributing editor T.C. Worley, and Brian Leitten, a friend and video producer in New York — began our trek late on Monday night after a day of literal planes, trains and automobiles. We flew to JFK, hopped a subway to Manhattan, then switched to an Amtrak in Penn Station for a 1.5-hour ride north of the city. By 10p.m., we were at the western trailhead of the Devils Path, a biked locked up as our "shuttle" at the other end, and getting ready to hike off into the night.
We ticked off 7 miles the first night before bivying a couple hours in the woods. Next morning, we got up early and made the assault on the remaining six mountains and 22 miles of the trail. We finished the route after dark on Tuesday night, thighs a bit jello-like and knees sore. Then, it was time to hop on the bike to pedal back to get the car. . . .
Overall, an epic trip! We'll have a full report soon on gear from the trail as well as a video. We were in New York to film the third episode in our "Fast & Light" video series. After climbing Kings Peak in Utah (episode 1) and getting lost traversing Minnesota's Boundary Waters (episode 2), the Devils Path offered a unique physical challenge and a gorgeous setting in the Catskill Mountains accentuated this week by autumn leaves and woodsy peaks spiking, one after the next, into the sky.
—Stephen Regenold is editor of GearJunkie.com. He covered the Devils Path on assignment for the New York Times. His story, "2 Days, 3 Nights, on a Path Named for a Devil," ran in the Times in September, 2009.
I enjoyed watching the video. It brought back memories. Eleven of us did this same hike in the opposite direction in May. The first 6 to finish did so in about 11 hours. The last 5 did so in about 12 hours. I am aware of others that completed this hike in less than 11 hours. I am sure you could have also completed the hike in much less time if it were not for the need to capture video along the way. If you want a real challenge, try the Great Range Traverse. Hike from the Rooster Comb trailhead to the Adirondack LOJ. This is a much harder day hike than Devil's Path. It took us about 5 hours longer to complete this hike than Devil's Path. It is much more technical but the views are much more rewarding.

IDST-1050-01: Writing Ecologically and the Ecology of Writing
Instructor: Richard Boada TTH 10 W 12
Poet A.R. Ammons writes, "we are not alone in language: we may be alone in words, at least, almost alone in speaking them, not alone in understanding them." The written word is itself one of the greatest barriers between the human and the non-human, and one may argue that the use of words is a defining characteristic of what it means to be human. From the moment humans began to speak and write about the natural world in which they lived, they engaged in the act of giving voice to that which had none. At the same time, language is one of our greatest tools for articulating, understanding and fostering our relationship to that which is non-human. In this course we will explore concepts of Ecology, as the study of living organisms and their relationship to environment, and we will also explore how individuals write about, talk about, and depict their relationships with the environment. This course will draw from a selection of texts, including essays, poetry, fiction and films, which challenge us to think about the human and non-human spheres writers occupy, how they locate themselves in texts, and how they use words and language to effectively write about the environment.
IDST 1128: Heritage of the West in World Perspective MW 1-2:15 TTH 9
Beginning with antiquity and continuing to the present, this program brings together history, literature, philosophy, religion, and the arts in an integrated approach to the study of Western culture within a global context. It is the equivalent of eight semester hours each semester, and extends throughout the year. In the spring, this course examines developments in Western culture from 1500 to present in the context of world history. IDST 1128 is open only to students who have completed IDST 1118 in the fall. All students will be assigned to the same section and professor as in the fall. Heritage meets the Fine Arts requirements as well as the requirements of Core 2-5. Enrollment is limited to freshmen.

IDST-1300-01: Art in Context: Renaissance Humanism and Zen Buddhism
Instructor: Dr. Elise Smith MTWF 9
How can we understand our own humanity more fully by considering pre-modern views of human nature, the interaction between women and men, and the relationship between humans and their God or gods? In this course we will compare two cultures of the 15th and 16th centuries: Western Europe, with a focus on Renaissance Italy and Reformation Germany, and Japan, particularly the Muromachi and Momoyama periods. While we will look at religious, philosophical, and literary texts, we'll use the art of the period as our primary investigative tool. Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Durer, among other European artists, as well as such Japanese artists as Nobutada, Fugai, and Bankei will provide us with visual information about these two cultures.
Focus: Fine Arts and Religion
IDST-1300-02: Gods of Medieval Myth
Instructor: Dr. Michael Gleason MTWF 9
Examining Celtic, Anglo-Saxon, Norse, Sanskrit, and Chinese texts, this course explores spirituality and religious belief as they are portrayed in some of the world's most challenging and influential works of literature. By asking, "What is myth?" and "What is God?" we hope to determine how pre-modern societies viewed the proper relationship between the human and the divine and what we have inherited of their view. In addition to grand questions of fate, mortality, and justice, we also consider conventions of literary form, including the elements of epic and lyric, tradition and innovation, prose and poetry, anonymity and fame. This course concentrates upon literatures which reached their final forms between c. 600 and 1600 C.E., although the texts may reflect religious sensibilities that are far older.
Foci: Literature and Religion
IDST 1300-03: Early Modern Spanish Theatre
Instructor: Dr. Judith Caballero MWF 10 TH 8
In this class we will read in translation and analyze some of the most famous plays written during the 1500s and 1600s in Spain, for example, The Trickster of Seville (El burlador de Sevilla), Lady Nitwit (La dama boba), and Life Is a Dream (La vida es sueño). We will explore the different types of plays, theatre spaces, actors, and theatre companies that existed during that era, as well as the government's laws and censorship. We will discuss the transformation from religious, medieval theatre to the secular theatre of Early Modern Spain and how it reflects social-political changes of the nation. In addition to reading the plays, we will be performing some portions of them in class.
Foci: Literature and Fine Arts
Instructor: Dr. Eric Griffin MWF 11 TH 9
This course will consider the inter-relation of the three major historical events of 1492 - Columbus's landfall in the New World, the expulsion of the Jews from the Spanish kingdoms, and the fall of Muslim Granada - by observing both the long-standing cultural tensions that produce them, and the new tensions that arise in their wake. While we will consider later interpretations, most of our readings will be either from accounts written by the participants themselves, or slightly later works which both draw upon these accounts and transform them fictively. Our readings will include European voices and the voices of Europe's Jewish, Islamic, and Native American "Others." We will also consider how the Protestant Reformation complicates an already complex situation by multiplying differences within Christendom itself. Cross-listed with Latin American Studies 3750 (LAST 3750)
Foci: Literature and History
IDST-1300-05: Fighting and Fervor in Philosophy and Literature in the Middle Ages
Instructor: Dr. Kristen Golden TTH 10 W 12
Despite a legacy of awesome technological achievements, America in 2014 cannot seem to avoid war and its horrors. In this, our nation and cultural fabric are certainly not unique. The theme of fighting, whether external like war and homicide or internal like personal anguish, comes up routinely in medieval texts, as does a focus on religious fervor. We will read some of the most beautiful and unforgettable literature and philosophy ever written. The texts will span the cultures of Great Britain, Europe and China and will present the human condition as a sometimes funny predicament in need of being fixed. As we address the broad question of human fulfillment, we will ask why intense feelings of love and hate seem pervasive in Medieval texts and what relationship they have to the big questions life and meaning humans continue to ask. These themes will absorb us through the course as we discover gaps and connections between medieval worlds and contemporary ones.
Focus: Philosophy
IDST-1300-06: Power, Patronage, and Pluralism: Religion and Empire in Pre-modern South Asia
Instructor: Dr. Emilia Bachrach TTH 2:45-4
Between the 7th and the 17th centuries CE, South Asia witnessed the rise and fall of numerous kingdoms and empires, which were often directly tied to religious traditions including Buddhism, Jainism, Hinduism, and Islam. In this class we will explore the dynamic connections between religious and imperial power, as well as the ways in which religious pluralism and systems of patronage deeply influenced political configurations across pre-modern South Asia: why did some ruling dynasties from southern India eagerly patronize the Jains, while others were eager patrons of Hindu communities?; why did Buddhism—a hugely popular and powerful religion in ancient India—rapidly decline on the sub-continent with the fall of the Pala Empire in the 12th c. CE?; what instigated the famous medieval battles between competing Hindu Rajput kingdoms in northern India?; what role did Islam play in the incredible prosperity and power of Mughal emperors? In order to engage with these questions, we will draw heavily from primary sources, such as courtly and religious literature, imperial edicts, visual art, architecture, and records of trade and political economy.
Focus: Religion
IDST 2500-01: Pentecostalism and Charismatic Movements
Instructor: Dr. Shelli Poe MWF 10 TH 8
Did you know that Pentecostalism is one of the fastest growing religious traditions in the world today? (And for those Methodists here at Millsaps…did you know that Pentecostal and Charismatic movements were heavily influenced by John Wesley and the Methodist Church?) In this course, we'll read about the history of Pentecostalism and Charismatic movements in the U.S. and across the globe. That history is filled with interesting stories of speaking in tongues, divine healing, being "slain in the Spirit," getting "the jerks," and "holy laughter." We'll read some Pentecostal theology to get a view of it "from the inside," and we'll also read an ethnography that records the author's personal experiences with contemporary Pentecostals in America. This course is an exercise in cross-cultural exploration. It will also help those interested in religious studies begin to think about religious traditions and how they influence one another, religious experiences and the global reach of religious claims, and how to evaluate religious claims and practices.
Focus: Religion
IDST 2500-02: Protest, Propaganda, and the Power of Music
Instructor: Dr. H. Lynn Raley MWF 11 TH 9
This course will explore how music can reflect both social justice issues and its flip side: propaganda. It will include early American song (Billings, Hopkinson, Ives), jazz (Ellington, Mingus, Abbey Lincoln's Freedom Now Suite, Marc Blitzstein, Billie Holiday), and classical (Aaron Copland, John Adams, Frederic Rzewski), as well as Chinese propaganda music (and Cui Jian's protest rock).
Focus: Fine Arts
IDST 2500-03: Masculinity in the Twentieth Century
Instructor: Dr. Stephanie Rolph TTH 10 W 12
The twentieth century represents a period during which the idea of immutable gender boundaries came under extreme scrutiny. The processes of industrialization, global war, woman suffrage, sexually integrated work places, sexual liberation, the Cold War and the explosion of media demanded new definitions and allowances for less rigid separations between the ideological "male" and "female." This class will focus primarily upon the process of masculinity, incorporating historical events as a guide to interpreting the changes and consistencies that appear and disappear. We will always be answering this central question: What makes a man?
Focus: History
IDST 2500-04: Scandal and Transgression: Privacy, Publicity, and Breaking Norms in Europe and the Americas, c. 1600-Present
Instructor: Dr. Amy Forbes MW 1-2:40
This course will examine affairs, scandals, and sensational events that rocked and intrigued Europe and its empire from roughly 1500 to the present. Central to our investigation will be the question of "scandal" and politics—what makes for a scandal, and how do these events resonate in and shape the body politic? Using two prominent theoretical frameworks for understanding transgression, we will examine historical narratives of transgression over time. Major themes include the blurry boundaries of the public and private sphere; the power of sex and gender in defining scandal and politics; analyses of race and colonialism as scandal; representations of interests and identity; censorship and battles over "public morality;" the mobilization of "outrage" against political figures; the rise of mass media and its critics; the marketplace and the economy of scandal; and fears of the public and mass democracy.
Focus: History
IDST 2500-04: Modern Theatre and Social Change
Instructor: Prof. Peter Friedrich TTH 1-2:40
This class explores theatre as a tool to communicate hard-to-discuss ideas on sexuality, violence, corruption, identity and community. In addition to performing an original theatre piece, students will study the work of groundbreaking twentieth-century theatre artists Augusto Boal, Luis Valdez, Susan Lori Parks, and Tony Kushner, among others.
Focus: Fine Arts
IDST 1610-01: Human Development in Cross-Cultural Perspective
Instructor: Dr. Stacy DeZutter MW 1-2:40
Human development permeates every aspect of our lives from our own individuation to our families, our work, and the rearing of our children. One can argue that all the compartmentalized studies of the social and behavioral sciences have as a source of origin human growth and development. It encompasses one's entire experience within this world. Human Development in Cross-Cultural Perspective demands an immediate and personal perspective, as well as a multi-disciplinary approach including such disciplines as psychology, biology, sociology, anthropology, and education.

Additionally, Bart is a published author, both in his contribution to the Candle Cafe Cookbook and in a compilation of his daily aphorisms Look Two Ways on a One Way Street which was published by Lantern Books in 2008. Bart was also named one of VegNews Magazine's Vegan Men We Love.
The success of Candle Cafe and Candle 79 proves Bart's original assertion that eating super healthy vegetarian food is a choice that impacts not only individual health but also the health of the planet. Bart's "daily bread" is his quest to make our world better for all humanity. He continues to be inspired by the growth and significance of the green movement.
