The Best Earbuds For Tiny Ears
Help geeksugar! I love my iPod and my shuffle and ideally would like to take them with me at all times. However, earbuds simply do not fit in my freakishly small ears. I have to work to get them in there, and when they do finally go in, they kind of hurt — most of the time they just pop right out. It's the standard Apple earbuds I've been trying, as I don't want to spend a lot of money on anything else to have them not fit. Do they make earbuds to fit tiny ears? Everyone else looks so content with their earbuds, and I'm pretty sure they aren't in pain! Any suggestions?

You should try the Roxy JBL collaboration! BUT only the small ones that DON'T have a microphone (the ones with a microphone which I also have are different and really uncomfortable.Trust me, I have had them for almost 2 years! And use them everyday, the best purchase and the best relation money/quality ever! They are for tiny girls ears! http://www.amazon.com/JBL-Reference-Earbud-Headphone-Green/dp/B0028N7NFW

I agree I hate ear buds with a passion and have to buy them with clips because they never stay in. Companies that sell I-pods should give you a coupon for a free pair of earbuds because the "free" ones never fit in my ears.

Thank you so much for this! My boyfriend just bought me a new ipod touch for my bday & we've both been so disappointed by the fact that the earbuds that came with it just won't fit me at all!

Oh thank god!! I was just thinking today how I wish I could get an ipod or something, but earbuds hurt my ears so much and I don't want to look like a supernerd with giant headphones! Regular earbuds always fall out of my ears, and make my ears red and tender for a good two days after using them! I always thought I was just putting them in wrong!
Awesome suggestions!
Thanks so much for remembering us tiny-eared freaks ;)

These are incredibly comfy! I wonder why small-eared people haven't found them yet

Thanks for this, I have really small ears too and it's such a hassle getting earbuds.

James Blake, 'Overgrown' (Universal Republic)
- SPIN Rating:7 of 10
Label: Universal Republic
You might be forgiven for thinking there were two diametrically separate artists named James Blake. First, there's the dubstep l'enfant terrible who, starting in the summer of 2009 and spanning all of 2010, released a 12-inch transmission nearly every quarter. Then came the soulful English bloke who put out a sparse, self-titled album in early 2011, seated at a piano and singing renditions of hits from Leslie Feist and Joni Mitchell (as well as a tune from his own father), vacillating between a quavering falsetto and a deeper vibrato with sprinklings of Auto-Tune.
Blake's early singles revealed a dubstep producer operating at a high metabolism — from the woozy spaces of "Air & Lack Thereof" to the spastic "refix" of Destiny's Child's "Bills Bills Bills" to the distorted twitches of "The Bells Sketch," and wrapping with the more ascetic warpage of "Klavierwerke," He fidgeted and fussed with the outermost edges of that South London-rooted sound, his tracks quirky yet adept, even if they weren't anthemic or floor-filling in the traditional sense. But as the year went on, he slowed his own velocity, effectively halving the young genre's wobbly, syncopated, double-timed BPM range. Rather than fulfill the promise of a dynamic new talent, this stuff instead revealed a more restive mind at work, one that was burning through the confines of dubstep rather than being defined by them. As for the James Blake who came next, he was an emotive crooner who drew inspiration not from the Amys and Adeles of his homeland, but from another British soul singer: Antony Hegarty. He was as vested in his own voice as in the sound of the negative space surrounding each exhalation and sustained piano line.
"If you listened to those EPs," Blake told one interviewer, "you probably would have recognized that I was going to move on." In the same interview, he also admitted, "I've never felt like I was a soul singer. It's not really who I am." A dubstep producer who disengaged from the genre track by track until his stuff no longer scanned as dance music. A soul singer who is not. How appropriate then that James Blake's cover was a portrait of the man with two faces. So which of these guys is responsible for Overgrown?
It's rare that both identities appear at the same moment, but when both halves of James Blake do converge on his second full-length, they offer a glimpse of a consummate artist. The titular opener gives us our most sumptuous view yet: A slow smolder of a track built around chary piano chords and wordless vocal enunciations, it widens into a gorgeous swell of programmed strings, cymbals, and Blake's evocative plaint at the spare but resonant chorus: "I don't want to be a star / But a stone on the shore / A lone door framed in a wall / When everything is overgrown." Similarly, on "Retrograde," our host is in full command, needing little more than his croon and some handclaps; when an analog synth crests at the song's peak, it's as stark and stirring as anything in his back catalog.
The crux of James Blake in singer-songwriter mode is that beyond the cover material of his first album, his own muse was threadbare. Take his debut's "I Never Learnt to Share," which taxed its 16 syllables well beyond the breaking point, its confessional if rote line serving as verse, bridge, and chorus, leaving his newfound voice to do all the heavy lifting. The result was precocious yet precious, Blake emoting with a quivering lip rather than a stiff upper one. Instead of revealing his formidable gifts as a producer, he favored austerity.
Less "The Wilhelm Scream" than "The Maudlin Warble," that fussiness over space is relaxed a hair on Overgrown. "I Am Sold" again finds Blake taking a scant lyric and exploring its ductile properties, mimicking Antony with every swooped-upon syllable, but he's sensible enough now to add supporting lines and a plunging bass. Same for "Life Round Here": Blake the drum programmer appears to accentuate the boom-tick with crisp hi-hat figures and undulating synth-bass vamps, revealing an appreciation for Timbaland's R&B production circa Destiny's Child.
Despite the album's title, "unkemptness" will never be the sort of adjective used to describe either version of James Blake. It's easy to envision him pruning and meticulously manicuring every aspect of his sound. So it's strange that Overgrown's biggest fault is lack of quality control; it's an uneven listen, with peaks like "Retrograde" segueing into the quotidian piano recital of "DLM," with an undistinguished back half that doesn't linger in the mind afterward.
And then there's "Take a Fall for Me," a wholly WTF collaboration with the RZA. It's hard to fathom Blake the hothouse flower hearing mid-'90s Wu bangers like "Ice Cream" or the hair-product placement of "Black Shampoo" and thinking they were ideal source material for romantic mixtape fodder. Or, in hearing RZA's Bobby Digital persona, felt he was in the presence of the next Teddy Pendergrass. And yet here we are, the fragility of love rendered by the Man with the Iron Fists, oblivious to the beat as he raps about love as a metaphor for being crushed by a squid. The track's lone joy lies in deciding which line is the most ludicrous: RZA ordering fish and chips with a glass of "cold" stout? Comparing love to a square dance? Enunciating the phrase "Italian peninsula"? Or going XE.com on us to rap to about "a million quid"?
Blake's other noteworthy collaborator here, Brian Eno, fares far better on "Digital Lion." The highlight of the album's second half, it's an exhilarating hybrid of gospel moans and roiling jungle snares, though it's difficult to pinpoint just what Eno contributed to the track. Is it that weird blown conch sound? The menacing synth lurking behind it? Or perhaps he simply delivered an Oblique Strategy reading, and convinced Blake to embrace his inner dance producer more often.

Most people above a certain age don't have a ton of photos from their childhoods. They likely have a string of stiffly posed family photos taken by a professional photographer that feature them smiling awkwardly in their fancy duds, basically looking nothing like they did on the other 364 days of the year. And seriously, when was the last time a school photo accurately portrayed the true spirit of any kid?
I've never had professional photos taken of my kids. In fact, there have been no professional photos ever. Not even on our wedding day. And I like it like that. Posing on a couch in some orchard, or strolling down train tracks somewhere just doesn't seem like the right fit. I prefer to photograph my kids in action, doing what they do, occasionally trying to capture special moments with "staged" shoots around the house or yard.
So far, so good. When I look back at my favorite photos from this year, the moments come rushing back. Visiting the cow down the street, swimming in the backyard, Henry in his chicken costume, building a fort in the dining room. Emotions and memories that no professional photo shoot could ever evoke.
I spent a lot of time taking photos this year. Nothing serious, just roaming around with my little Canon point & shoot ($129 on Amazon) and then some editing in Flickr.
I'm certainly no purist. I mean, I like taking a photo so great it doesn't need a tweak. But I also really enjoy editing photos. I like to improve upon images, if I can, and I also like using basic editing software to impart some further feeling into the photos. Nothing major, but if the day felt happy and sunny I might tweak the warmth on the photo to relay that a bit more. If it was cold, I may dial up the blue tint.
Several years ago Serge purchased me a Nikon D100, when that was the camera to have. Any blogger who claimed to be a photographer (and there are a bajillion) had a fancy Nikon or Canon. I was impressed but also felt like it wasn't worth my trouble when I can accomplish what I want to accomplish with my cheap, tiny Canon point and shoot.
So what am I hoping to accomplish?
Basically I'm hoping to take quality photos of my family, friends, and our neighborhood and the characters that live within, so that my kids can look back in twenty years and remember what it was like to grow up in our farmhouse in the country.
I've compiled a bunch of my favorite photos from the year here in an effort to prove to you that not only do you not need to pay a photographer a bunch of money to snap your photos you don't even need an expensive camera to get quality photos.
So, what do you think? If I told you I shot these with a top of the line camera from 2012 would you have known otherwise by looking at the photos? Or am I right that you don't need a fancy camera to take great photos?

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
Belmont, Tuesday, March 12"I remember being here a couple years ago standing in a bigass line with no wristband trying to get in," Seattle rapper Macklemore recalled before his at-capacity headlining set for the Warner Sound showcase Tuesday. A lot has changed in a couple years. After a fairly anonymous SXSW debut in 2011, Macklemore and his DJ Ryan Lewis find themselves at the top of the Billboard charts and surrounded by the most incessant buzz of this year's Festival. Rocking a fresh close-crop from Birds Barbershop, the "cold ass honky" waxed biographical on "Ten Thousand Hours" before delivering the discount goods on "Thrift Shop." Hands dotted the sky for queer-equality anthem "Same Love," before Talib Kweli crashed the stage to drop a verse from "The Actual." "SXSW reminds you of the hunger it takes to be an artist," Macklemore declared. "We do all these sold-out shows, but at SXSW, we're not shit all over again, and I love that." Before Macklemore pulled off The Heist, Brooklyn top chef Action Bronson rapped an entire track with a fan on his back and wandered from the stage to the top of the VIP balcony during a set of choice culinary-inspired cuts.

White TongueSymptom Checker: Symptoms & Signs Index Medical Author: Melissa Conrad Stöppler, MD Whitening of the tongue can occur when there is a buildup or coating of bacteria and debris on the surface of the tongue due to mild dehydration, illness (when there is less use of the tongue for talking or eating), or dryness of the mouth. A whitening of the top layer of the tongue or the presence of white spots or patches on the tongue can also be seen with infection or chronic inflammation of the surface of the tongue. Certain oral infections, notably Candida yeast infections (known as oral thrush), are characterized by a white tongue. In contrast, some infections, like scarlet fever, can produce red spots on the tongue. Inflammation and whitening of the tongue can also occur due to dryness or environmental irritants such as smoking, and may be associated with bad breath. Inflammation of the tongue is known as glossitis. Some white patches on the tongue, known as leukoplakia, can be precancerous lesions. Medically Reviewed by a Doctor on 4/23/2014

RALEIGH (AP) -- For the third time, evidence detailing the alleged crimes of former Rep. Thomas Wright is before the public.
Wake County District Attorney Colon Willoughby called retired state official Torlen Wade to testify Tuesday at Wright's criminal trial. Wade repeated for the court how he wrote a bogus letter on Wright's behalf in 2002 that helped the Wilmington Democrat secure a $150,000 bank loan.
Wade's account of his dealings have previously been aired before the State Board of Elections and a special House ethics panel. The Board of Elections referred Wright's case to Willoughby, while the full House voted last month to follow the ethics panel's recommendation and kick Wright out of office.
Wright's criminal trial began Monday with jury selection and a few procedural witnesses. He is charged with committing fraud in obtaining the bank loan and pocketing another $8,900 in corporate contributions meant for a health foundation he led in Wilmington.

text: Hi guys, I'm trying to add in text to the cyrus-sasl page to address the ldapdb circular dependency. This is how I build it. Build cyrus-sasl normally as in the book, leaving out --with-ldap since I don't have it built yet. Build openldap with --enable-spasswd to get sasl authentication in ldap. Unpack cyrus-sasl again, apply seds and patches, and then build as such: ./configure \ --sysconfdir=/etc/sasl \ --with-dbpath=/etc/sasl/sasldb2 \ --enable-ldapdb \ --with-ldap make -C include make -C sasldb make -C plugins libtool --mode=install install -c plugins/libldapdb.la /usr/lib/sasl2 First two parameters to configure are just personal preference. The libtool line is just taken from plugins/Makefile. The -c could be dropped since install ignores it. It fully works for me. I had a long session testing out SASL authentication and authorization in LDAP on Saturday. Both directly through the ldap client and through the ldapdb plugin work. Now, where should I put this info on the cyrus-sasl page? What of the above information should be included? Also, it should be noted that this only enables the ldapdb plugin. saslauthd only has LDAP capabilities if you rebuild the whole package with --with-ldap (maybe not all, but most of it at least). Thanks for any insight. -- Dan

Students Keep Giving as BC Teachers Strike
Jun 27th
Students that participated in the 365give Challenge learned that you can give every day even when schools out!
This past school year 13 dedicated teachers in the West Vancouver School District, committed to participate in a new educational initiative that would teach their students to give back to the world every day. Over 300 students participated in the program creating positive change in the world both locally and globally. Teachers incorporated daily gives into the fabric of their lesson plans to embrace community and global learning. Together classes were empowered to discover ways to give every day for one week in a learning and embracing environment. The daily giving rotated from class to class weekly throughout the school year.
Two grade one students from Ridgeview Elementary in West Vancouver, BC have fully embraced the concept of daily giving by cleaning up a school yard to give back to the environment and their community as the BC Teachers Strike continues throughout the province.
World renown researcher Dr. Stephen Post Ph.D. co-author of Why Good Things Happen to Good People, believe "that when we give of ourselves, especially if we start young, everything is significantly affected from:
- Life-satisfaction
- Self-realization
- Physical health
- Mortality is delayed
- Depression is reduced
- Well-being and good fortune are increased
In fact, research tells us that people who give- whether it be their time or money are more likely to be:
- Cooperative
- Have higher quality social relationships
- Better at resolving conflict
- A high degree of empathy
- Reduces bullying
If you are looking for new activities for your family this summer start a daily giving project that will leave a life time imprint on their growing minds, the community and the world around them.
- Daily giving ideas can be found on our site.
- It will engage their minds with fun educational activities like Free Rice,
- Teach them about the planet (Earth 911) and how they can decrease their Carbon Foot Print
- Daily activities to engage them in a global understanding of food and the human connection with Community Partners like Whole Foods.
- They will learn they can make a global impact where ever they go every day.
The 365give blog has over 400 daily giving ideas that will inspire you to give every day this summer and teach your children to do the same. Teachers in West Vancouver found daily giving easy to weave into their daily curriculum and were excited to see how engaged and excited their students were to participate in the 365give Challenge.
Share you daily gives with us by leaving a comment here, tweet us,or post on Facebook.
You can join the giving movement now by supporting us on our Indiegogo Campaign so we can teach thousands of students globally how to give every day.
365give Launches Indiegogo Campaign
Jun 17th
365give started as a dream to change the world for the better.
The 365give Challenge is as easy as 1,2,3. One give, One child, One day at a time. What began as a yearlong giving project with a mother and her child has grown to reach over 275 children. With your help 354give plans to expand our giving movement to reach thousands in September 2014 but we need your help with our campaign in Idiegogo fundraising campaign and here's why….
Teaching children to give has been researched extensively throughout the world. The benefits to the children work directly with the social emotional education they are embracing in the schools every day.
Benefits include:
- An increase in happiness and well being
- Better health
- Decrease in depression
- Less bullying
- Better social skills
- Increase in confidence
- Higher grade point averages
Here's how the 365give Challenge works….
1) Each class participating in the 365give Challenge chooses 5 ways they can give back to the planet, a person or an animal. One give every day over the course of a school week. The 365give Challenge rotates from class to class each week.
2) Teachers work with their students to recorded each give in their school 365give book. They create 1 page each day that describes how their class left a positive footprint on the community and world around them.
3) Each "give" is tracked on the 365give Impact Tracking Board located in the school so students understand the impact they have as they complete their daily gives.
Teachers incorporated their daily giving as part of their every day curriculum using a range of subjects including:
- Math
- Science
- Environmental Studies
- Writing
- Creative Arts
The 365give Challenge is an educational program that teaches philanthropy in the most simple, empowering, and exciting way for students and teachers. The program, in partnership with researchers from UBC and SFU, is being researched to reveal the long-term benefits of giving in school-aged children.
Students and teachers have engaged in over 150 "gives" which include:
- Baking 100 dog biscuits to celebrate the 100th day of school and donating them to Paws for a Cause.
- Helping other classes with playground clean up duty.
- Raising money for various organizations locally and globally.
- Bringing trash-less lunches to school as they learn about the environment.
- Doing shore-line clean up in support of the ocean.
- Taking home-made cookies to the fire-fighters to thank them for all they do.
- Working with local seniors.
- Creating videos about animal awareness.
You can read about the students daily giving on our blog.
Our goal is to have an addition 12 schools take part in the 365give Challenge for the school year starting in September 2014. We need your help to do so. We need donations to create a more interactive website which provides teaching tools, "giving" ideas, and support for schools doing the Challenge. 365give would like to create a portal for educators and students to log-on and share their giving ideas while providing a space where they can be celebrated. This grassroots giving movement will expand into a far-reaching global initiative, creating a fertile field for greater good to grow and flourish.
It can be done, with your help.
The beauty of this project is its simplicity and mobility:
One give, once child, one day at a time.
We have learned that sometimes what seems like the smallest give of all,
a smile or a word of encouragement,
can be the very thing that makes the biggest difference.
Check out our campaign on Indiegogo,
Share on Facebook, Tweet our story and spread the news that a new giving movement has begun!

Made my own Pickle Juice to alleviate cramping

This is funny, I have never in my life had cramp problems, in fact I can't remember a single time that I actually had a full cramp, sometimes - very few and usually after a couple of hours after I am done playing tennis - I feel the starting of a cramp and then change position or do something to avoid it. The funny thing is that I love to eat things with vinegar and all kind of species, since I was very little I would get home and instead of having a bowl of cereal I would make a salad with lots of vinegar on it or just stop at the grocery store and buy a jar of those canned vegetables that are preserved in vinegar and eat the whole thing watching TV, never thought the vinegar could be the reason of my cramp less life until i read here about the pickle juice. Even these days I could eat a whole jar of pickles watching TV and drink the whole juice as it was a soda or something, actually I have 2 pickle jars at the fridge, I already ate the pickles, just saving the juice

No, Marty, you're understandably mistaken. I thought the exact same thing, as did a lot of smart people whose opinions I trust (e.g. Paul Vixie of ISC, maintainers of BIND). Then Kaminsky put Vixie under NDA and showed it to him. Now Vixie says it's not the same thing we've always known about. Alan Clegg (also of ISC) gave me a little bit of a talking-to after I said much the same as you did above. I said on BIND Users: >> However, that said, this attack is not new. The weakness addressed by >> this latest patch is not some new revelation - it's something we in >> the community have known about for years.

BIND did until this latest update, and Microsoft DNS did until their update. The QA manager for CentOS, a friend of mine, told me that glibc is also vulnerable. I'm not sure how vulnerable, but I do know that Microsoft patched their stub resolver at the same time as their DNS server. (glibc contains a stub resolver based on the BIND source code + Sun's nscd.) Clegg also sent me to this page: http://www.securityfocus.com/brief/772 He also passed along some private, internal ISC communications that I'm not at liberty to disclose. I can, however, tell you that it scared me. I suspect DNSSEC will now be rolled out pronto across a much larger segment of the Internet. Stub resolvers may see some TSIG and/or GSS-TSIG support coming soon as well. Chris Buxton Professional Services Men & Mice

Our stay was amazing! The staff was very accommodating and friendly. We were always offered help with directions and carrying luggage to help free us up to heard the kids. Everything was wonderful and there are no words to describe the made to order breakfast! We could have spent our entire trip exploring the hotel and relaxing in all the splendor! - Anonymous
we are simple middle class young adults and the warwick treated us like a million dollars. they were so helpful they even managed to help us find our way home for us on the phone when we got lost in downtown we will be staying their again. - Katherine
We enjoyed the undercover parking garage system, being able to access your room from the garage via elevators. The Bussiness centre is good, and the conscience is also efficient and friendly. - Anonymous
Breakfast was hot with a decent variety. Great location by I-25 & I-70. Coffee in the lobby avail 24/7. Other folks utilized the shuttle. Can use their computer for free and print things for a free. Pretty lobby; smells good in there. I like the way the building is shaped, with 3 chairs on 3 corners of the floor. Elevators look the outer doorway of a home with brick; cute. - Anonymous
The staff was awesome. Everyone was extremely nice and helpful. The front desk were the most inviting people ive ever met at a hotel. The valet people were extremely friendly, helpful, knowledgable of the area, directions and activities. Couldn't have found a better group of employees! Even the new hire/ first day on the job female was a joy at check out. She smiled and laughed her way thru my misspelling of my name thru mumble. Thanks to letsbookhotel.com and the sheraton for a fantastic four - Anonymous
Friendly staff,clean environment,close to resturants - Anonymous
This was our second visit. It felt like we wee coming home. I loved the decor of the rooms so much I have used as the inspiration for my new home in Colorado. It is very luxurious without being stuffy. The staff is amazing. We especially love the complimentary happy hour. We are avid travelers and find Kimpton Hotels superior. - Anonymous
Convenient location, all-around service, breakfast food choices, lighted parking area, excellent room - Anonymous
Special commendation to Erin Strong, Chief Concierge who gave personal attention to ensure my expected parcels via courier service arrived safely, kept securely and delivered immediately on registration. Hotel was comfy, close to shops/malls. The evening complimentary cookies + milk was brilliant; why don't other hotels do the same? Little investment but surely goes a long way. Could do with a bit more variety for breakfadt - Anonymous
Our accomodations were wonderful. Our King Suite was very spacious and well layed out. Lots of room and comfortable! Parking in front of the hotel allowed us to bypass valet one night otherwise the valet fee is $20. Breakfast was very nice too and they provided a lot of variety. - Anonymous
A very nice room but a little on the pricey side, of course its hard to find a nice and cheap hotel near downtown Denver. However, the hotel is located right next to a World of Beer! Definitely a place to visit if you have downtime during your stay! This location is also close to the Denver Zoo and Museum of Nature and Science. - Anonymous
Convenient central location good breakfast - Sylvia

I went to the craft store yesterday, and finally ended up buying a candle making set. Sora loves candles... =3 But I didn't get a candle holder because I'm stupid and the canlde making supplies were on the oppisite side of the store from the candle supplies... Figures. So I can make the candles but I can't burn them for very long... Oh wells..
Now I have the difficult bit of figuring out what color I should make them and stuff. But I'll worry about that stuff after I make the first few.
Actually, now that I've got the stuff, I kind of want to make her a hand rolled candle too, but I don't have the wick. D: So I'll buy some of those while I'm at the store too.
I have anime club today so we'll go to the craft store afterwards.
... I want rainbow shoelaces... Mabye I could color my current ones with permanent markers.. :)
bye byes for now.

I bought some tiedye shoelaces from a couple of hippies at Hempfest. :) They produce pretty much the same effect, so if you can't find anything and don't go through with the markers, that works too!

More than 20 years in journalism, much of it spent as a public safety reporter, has given me a pretty strong constitution. I've come upon horrific crime scenes and gory accidents and found myself in truly repulsive environments more times than I care to remember (and will probably never forget). After a few years, I managed to develop a more clinical approach — plus gallows humor — to cope. Today, I'm confident in my odds of winning an old-fashioned juvenile game of "What's grosser than gross?" based solely on personal experience.
To the editor:
I am very concerned about the needy and homeless in Brunswick County who are not permitted to sleep inside local churches during extreme cold weather.
From the tireless dialogue and letters to state and county officials, it is my understanding churches would have to apply for a "change in occupancy." This perplexes me.
In response to a recent letter to the editor on 16-year-olds, I believe they should be treated as adults.
They can legally drive an automobile if they are 16 and they can also drop out of school. I believe in some states they can marry if they are 16. I also believe state and national laws should be revised so they can vote at 16.
Many thanks to a bucket team from Brunswick Electric Membership Corp. for assisting with rescuing my American flag.
Recent high winds had frayed the flag and twisted the line to the point that the flag wouldn't lower, and when my wife asked a BEMC team for help, they responded on a Saturday with a bucket truck to reach the flag and untwist the line. Great job!
Retired Air Force Brig. Gen. Paul Dordal
If you have ever wondered why some politicians, some academics, some scientists and those generally on the political left have persistently argued for the belief in man-made global warming and climate change, you need wonder no more.
At a news conference last week in Brussels, Christiana Figueres, executive secretary of the United Nations' Framework Convention on Climate Change, admitted the goal of environmental activists is not to save the world from ecological calamity, but to destroy capitalism.
Why has racism been a problem throughout human history?
The answer is sin. We harbor evil thoughts about other people and commit evil acts against them because of sin (Romans 3:10-23). Sin appears to make us innately suspicious of people who look differently from us. Only through the transformative power of salvation in Jesus Christ can racism be overcome (2 Corinthians 5:17). Only through seeing all other people as being created in the image of God (Genesis 1:26) can we rid ourselves of racial prejudices.
I am writing this letter believing that, in our sometimes jaded world, there are still Good Samaritans.
On Friday, Feb. 6, after cashing a check at the bank, I evidently dropped a BB&T bank envelope with $120 in $20s in the parking lot directly in front of the door to Tripp's Jewelers on Main Street in Shallotte. I was on a mission of mercy to get a battery replaced in my husband's watch and a neck chain repaired. Leaving the store, I returned home and then realized the envelope containing the money was missing.

Spring Doormat Round-Up!
"If you don't stand out, no one will take notice," says Matina, a Boston-based doormat that is so bright and cheery, she gets her share of traffic — and attention. "It's not easy being stepped on, but at least I look cute so visitors notice me, I'm into a powerful first impression."
Spring has sprung, and despite the mounds of snow still piled around my front door, I have hope that temps will warm and I can soon plant my window box, flower bed, and freshen my front door with potted plants arranged in various heights and a perky welcome mat. Here are some of my favorites for Spring that will not only keep your floors clean, but welcome guests with style. Afterall, there's no impression like a first impression!
Anthropologie can have your guests at hello with their delicious assortment of mats. I checked these babies out in-store recently and loved them all, in fact they have a few additional styles in thier brick 'n mortar locations. That's where I'm heading this weekend…
A few grown-up modern welcome mats from Crate + Barrel. Stripes and floral motifs are two of the most popular patterns for rugs in general, so you always finds lots of them on doormats.
Somewhat neutral choices from Target online, but their stores have a huge collection in colors that you'll love, so I suggest hitting Target live for the best selection in mats. That 'Hi I'm Mat!' is nerdy, but cute, huh?
Chiasso is doormat KING of the web. I can't believe how many great ones they have online (5 pages!), but here are a few that I've selected.
Doormats that are a bit more on the industrial and somewhat masculine side from Chiasso make for a more bold entry.
A clever mat from Suck UK. Is it a friendly welcome or a sarcastic get lost mat? You decide.
Modern and sleek designs over at Unica Home. Love those Droog bunnies – gotta love the Dutch!
If you'd like to DIY your own animal mat, click here for complete instructions. Fun and easy.
Wrapables has a few great doormats to wipe your feet on, especially the fruity find above. At their site, or any of those I've listed, just search under 'doormat'.
Pure gorgeousness from Dixie in Sweden. I love these designs, so graphic and colorful. I could seriously get on a 12-month plan with these guys if they had one. A new doormat a month club or something. What great choices, which makes me think, just where do you start?
These are Dixie deliciousness as well – aren't they fabulous?
And finally, here's the High Style mat from Ballard Designs in three different colorways. I love the navy and kelly green. I wish they had it in canary yellow, I think yellow and white together during the Spring season is the best. Their French Court mat is cute and so is this cane pattern mat – this pattern is a huge trend right now, it's on everything from fabric to rugs and accessories. Love!
Who knew shopping for a doormat could be so much fun?

March 22nd, 2007 at 9:06pmhow funny, i was just on a major doormat hunt just a few weeks ago and came across most of these sites. now i realize the virtue of blogging since i spent so much time searching for doormat vendors and could've/should've shared the wealth with other searchers.
i ended up buying the "clear path" doormat from anthropologie. i was just going to blog about it but i noticed that they took it down and it is nowhere to be found on the web. it's so strange how quickly they take down items from their website.

March 23rd, 2007 at 12:14amHoly cow this is a comprehensive post. I was thinking of painting my door a nice bright red to shake up the neighborhood a bit (all black doors, maaaaaaaybe a dark green one for the bolder neighbors) and that black and white crate and barrel one would be perfection! Thanks – off to order now.

March 24th, 2007 at 5:50amwhat a fun post. I was looking for a colorful mat like that here, but since the choices here are quite limited, I had a hard time looking for the one I like. So I just settled with a monochrome stem+leaf design kind of coco mat. Funny thing, the seller said the colourful ones were not doing well here in singapore, as most ppl go for neutral colors.

March 25th, 2007 at 9:47pmHow bright and fun! Inspired by your post, Holly, I added one on my blog.

The Hippo and the Tortoise Who Became Friends After the Tsunami-Truth!
Tsunami Survivor NAIROBI (AFP) - A baby hippopotamus that survived the tsunami waves on the Kenyan coast has formed a strong bond with a giant male century-old tortoise, in an animal facility in the port city of Mombassa , officials said. The hippopotamus, nicknamed ! Owen and weighing about 300 kilograms (650 pounds), was swept down Sabaki River into the Indian Ocean , then forced back to shore when tsunami waves struck the Kenyan coast on December 26, before wildlife rangers rescued him. "It is incredible. A-less-than-a-year-old hippo has adopted a male tortoise, about a century old, and the tortoise seems to be very happy with being a 'mother'," ecologist Paula Kahumbu, who is in charge of Lafarge Park , told AFP. "After it was swept and lost its mother, the hippo was traumatized. It had to look for something to be a surrogate mother. Fortunately, it landed on the tortoise and established a strong bond. They swim, eat and sleep together," the ecologist added. "The hippo follows the tortoise exactly the way it follows its mother. If somebody approaches the tortoise, the hippo becomes aggressive, as if protecting its biological mother," Kahumbu added. "The hippo is a young baby, he was left at a very tender! age and by nature, hippos are social animals that like to stay with t heir mothers for four years," he explained.

Allen Tree Stand Umbrella is rated out of 5 by 2.Rated 2 out of 5 by Soggy Top from Looked good and mounted well, But........ The concept is great. I ordered a couple for my ladder stands. They arrived well but when unpacking I noticed a sticky substance in the bag. Upon searching I discovered the source was a mellted rubber band. evidentily the product was old or exposed to a lot of heat at some time. The umbrella, anchor, and straps were in good shape after scraping the goo off the affected areas. The umbrealla mounted easily and solidly. I woke up this morning to rain, so I decided to try the umbrella out. It worked wonderfully except for where the tip of the umbrella that was right over the top of my head. An frequent drip right on top of the head was the only downside I found.
