_____ sighed as she pulled into the student parking lot. It wasn't because she would suffer from a boring day at school. No, she would be suffering from the lovely hell that is band camp. She played the clarinet in her high school marching band, which meant that band camp was mandatory.
'At least this is my last year of it,' she thought, climbing out her car. This was her senior year, which, in marching band, came with two perks (excluding the obvious seniority): being section leader and only having one more year of band camp.
When _____ turned around, another car parked right next to hers, being very careful not to hit her. The car parked, and out climbed Alfred, Feliciano, Gilbert, and Ludwig.
_____ smiled as they came toward her. "Hey, guys," she said. "Thanks for coming. We could use all the help we can get out here."
Feliciano smiled brightly and waved at her. "Ciao, sorella!"
"Are you ready for this?" said Alfred, wrapping an arm around _____'s neck.
In turn, she wrapped an arm around his. "As I'll ever be," she sighed.
"Mein GOTT!" exclaimed Gilbert, waving his hand in front of his face. "It's so HOT!"
_____ laughed. "Well, that's band camp for you, honey." She pat the albino on the head. "You're just going to have to suck it up like the rest of us."
Gilbert snorted. "Ja, but unlike you, we aren't in band und can leave at any time."
A pair of arms deftly snaked around _____'s waist, pulling her close to the owner of said arms. _____ was surprised at first, but smiled and looked up at her boyfriend's face. "Hi, Ludwig," she said sweetly.
Ludwig smiled down at her. "Hallo, schatz." He lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead. "You'd better get going. You wanted to be early, right?"
_____ pulled away and made her way to the band room, the men on her tail. "You're mistaken, mein liebe. To be early is to be on time. To be on time is to be late. And to be late is to be dead. Therefore, in band, early does not exist."
Ludwig chuckled at her logic. The week before, _____ had begged the four to come to band camp with her to, if anything, just help out (refill water coolers, pass out wet rags, etc.). They had agreed and were excited at first, but now that they were here and under the blazing sun, they were beginning to regret it (except Ludwig, who could handle that kind of crap like a pro).
_____ sighed as she stomped off the sidewalk to the practice field, the boys following her. "Halfway done." It was now the second half of day three at band camp, Wednesday, around 2:30 in the afternoon.
Feliciano, who was already breathing heavily from the heat, sighed loudly. "How can you do this every year? It's really hot and there aren't a lot of breaks."
She put her Frogg Togg around her neck and pat his head. "You get used to it after a while."
"This kinda reminds me of mein bruder's training," commented Gilbert.
When everyone had assembled on the practice field, the band director instructed the band to split up into sectionals. Since _____ was a senior, she was section leader, which meant she was I charge of the other clarinet players.
"Alright guys, get into two rows for me," _____ commanded to the lowerclassmen. After giving the command, she dressed the lines using two yard lines and the home sideline.
"Okay," she said after dressing the lines, "let's just go forward eight and backwards eight for right now."
She counted the group off and inspected their marching. Surprisingly, the sophomores and freshmen were doing great. Most of the juniors were fineexcept one.
_____ scowled at the junior. "Tori," she called when they finished. "You were just walking."
Victoria (a.k.a. Tori) raised an eyebrow. "And?"
_____ raised both of hers. "And we're in marching band. We don't walk. We march."
Victoria rolled her eyes. "This is so retarded."
_____ was about to go off on her when the band director called for a water break and added, "Section leaders, come here for a minute."
Before going to the director, she glared at Victoria. "Get serious." She turned and walked away, feeling a slight pain in her head.
Victoria was left by herself, mulling over what just happened. She was very displeased, to say the least, and began thinking of a way to get back at _____. She looked over at the men that had followed _____ there, paying special attention to the blond German in a black wife's beater and cargo shorts. She knew Ludwig was _____'s boyfriend, and decided to do something that would really piss _____ off.
Victoria walked over to Ludwig and started off with small-talk. "So," she said to him. "How long have you and _____ been together?"
Ludwig looked at her, a bit surprised that she would ask a question like that. "Er, almost eight months now, but I've known her longer," he said. "You're Victoria, ja?"
She nodded, subtly pulling down the front of her low-cut tank top. "Yeah. listen, I have to tell you something."
Ludwig nodded curiously. "Ja. What is it?"
Victoria glanced over to where _____ was with the band director and the other section leaders. If she was going to do this, she would have to do it at the right moment.
And she did. She grabbed Ludwig's wife's beater and pulled his face closer to hers, causing their lips to meet awkwardly. Ludwig was shocked and froze for a moment. But that moment was all it took, because _____ turned around the second they kissed.
_____'s face flushed from anger. "Get the hell away from him!"
Victoria calmly pulled away as _____ rushed toward the two. Unlike what Victoria had expected, _____ passed right by Ludwig and went straight for her, grabbing her tank top and pulling her to close proximity. "What the hell are you doing with him?! Who do you think you are, trying to do something like that?! What the hell's the matter with you?!"
"_____," said Ludwig calmly but loudly. "That's enough. Let her go."
After a second, she shoved Victoria out of her hands and looked at Ludwig, hurt filling her eyes.
Ludwig noticed and reached out his hand. "_____, I"
"No," said _____, her voice dropping and entire octave. "I don't wanna hear it."
Before either one could get another word out, the band director called for the band to go to opening set. Hesitantly, _____ made her way across the field, picking up her clarinet on the way. Ludwig sat down on the ground, grabbing a wet rag and wrapping it around his neck. He pressed the end of it to his forehead, the stray drops of water cooling his face. He tried figuring out what had just happened, then realized that he needed to apologize and explain himself to _____ as soon as possible.
"Nice going, West," said a voice near Ludwig.
Ludwig looked up and saw Gilbert looming over him. He sighed. "I didn't do anything. That girl just came up to me und kissed me."
Gilbert sat down beside him, handing his brother a cup of cold water. "I know. But schwester doesn't. You need to tell her."
"I know that," said Ludwig, an edge in his voice. He took a sip of water, knowing better than to drink something that cold quickly in such heat.
He stared at _____ as she marched across the field. Her form and posture were perfect, and she stayed in step even when everyone around her wasn't. He smiled at her resilience. That was one of the many reasons why he loved her. God, he loved her. He loved her more than anything. That was why he needed to apologize. He didn't want to lose her, especially over something like this.
Moving her feet to the beat, _____ smoothly marched from set to set. She kept her eyes on Ludwig, only glancing around occasionally to check her location and intervals. Her mouth felt dry as she played. She hadn't had anything to drink for about two hours now, which, in this heat, was not good. She rotated her shoulders and tilted her head back for a second, attempting to make her Frogg Togg release some water and cool her off a little. It didn't do very much, and she stopped playing to breathe through her mouth. Sweat poured down her face, neck, and back. She was severely overheated. She needed water now. The pain in her head returned and intensified, impairing her vision and coordination. The pain grew tenfold for a split-second before her tired body fell to the ground.
Although they were paused at their sets, it took everyone a moment to realize that _____ was unconscious. Excluding Ludwig, who had been staring _____ the whole time, Anna, the flute section leader and one of _____'s friends, was the first to notice.
Anna bent down and gently shook her. "_____? Are you"
"_____!" Ludwig came running onto the field toward his girlfriend. He knelt down beside her and held head in his big hand. "Schatz?" Ludwig's heart sank when he saw that she wasn't breathing. He looked back at Alfred. "Alfred!" he called in a panicked tone. "Call for an ambulance!"
Alfred quickly carried out the order while Ludwig began performing CPR on _____. "Come on," he mumbled. "Come on. Come on." As he repeatedly pressed his hands down on her chest, he looked at _____'s unconscious face. She was so pale, so lifeless. He couldn't stand to see his sweetheart like that. Just the very sight made his heart break.
At this time, everybody, including Alfred, Gilbert, and Feliciano, had gathered around the scene. Gilbert had grabbed several wet rags on the way over and started to slowly place them on _____'s forehead, neck, and continuously running one across her cheeks. He tossed her Frogg Togg to Feliciano and told him to soak it in the ice water where they got the wet rags from. Feliciano obeyed, running to and from the cooler as fast as he could, and all the while sobbing and begging for God to let his "sorella" be alright.
"Okay. Thanks," said Alfred as he ended the emergency call on his cell phone. "An ambulance is in its way."
They nodded emphatically, Ludwig still trying to get _____ to breathe. Feliciano knelt down next to _____'s head and gently placed the now soaking wet Frogg Togg on her neck, pressing the ends to her cheeks for a moment. "Sorella. . ." he whispered, tears running down his face.
"Come one, _____," mumbled Ludwig. "Stay with me."
"My god, you guys," said a voice behind the group. "Stop getting all worried. She's obviously faking it to see if Ludwig still has the hots for her."
"That's a lie!" exclaimed Feliciano. "Sorella would never joke about something like that!"
Ludwig turned to Victoria, glaring at her the same way _____ did. He stood up, Gilbert taking control of the CPR. "Does this look fake to you?! Look at her! You think she's playing around?! Get it through your head! She's not joking! Und neither are we!"
Victoria's eyes were wide and her already red cheeks were even redder. She looked away from Ludwig and slowly walked off.
Soon after, the ambulance came, and _____ was carried on. Ludwig started to climb in when he was stopped by one of the paramedics. "Sorry, son. You can't come in."
Ludwig was in a state of panic right now, eyes widened and hair sloppily hanging in his face. "Nein! I have to be in there!"
The paramedic looked quickly at _____, then back at Ludwig. "Are you her boyfriend, or something?" he asked in a monotonous, but still sympathetic voice.
Ludwig nodded. "Ja. Yes, I am."
"Alright. Come in. Just don't get in the way."
Hearing this, Ludwig quickly climbed into ambulance, mumbling to the paramedic, "Danke."
As they drove away from the school campus, Ludwig sat transfixed beside _____, watching every movement the paramedics made like a guard dog. When the paramedics finished reaching across the back of the ambulance for things and finally relaxed, Ludwig took _____'s hand in his. It felt so tiny in his, so fragile. She seemed so fragile. He lifted it up and kissed it lightly.
"Schatz?" he said quietly. "Can you hear me? It's Ludwig. You're going to be fine. I promise. We're on our way to the hospital now." He watched as one of the paramedics stuck an IV into _____'s right arm, flinching when it pierced her skin. He knew how much _____ hated needles, and also knew she wouldn't be too happy when she woke up and saw an IV in her arm.
That is, if she woke up.
Ludwig shook his head furiously, wanting desperately to rid himself of that thought. He tightened his grip on her hand. "_____, if you can hear me, squeeze my hand." He waited a moment, but her hand remained motionless. "Schatz? Please, squeeze my hand. Move your fingers. Do something! I need to know you're still there! Please, _____! I love you!"
Despite all his efforts, _____ didn't move. Aside from the occasional shake that was sent through the ambulance, she stayed completely still. Ludwig panicked, but before he could do anything, the ambulance came to a stop and the paramedics carried _____ out and into the emergency entrance of a hospital. He followed them all the way to Trauma Room 1, where he was left outside while the doctors helped _____. He looked through the slender window, seeing a small group of doctors and nurses crowded around _____. His heart lodged in his throat when he saw a doctor pull out a defibrillator.
Ludwig backed away from the door to the other side of the hallway. He couldn't take any more of this. He sank down to the floor against the wall with his legs close to his chest and arms covering his head. And at that instant, he began to cry.
"Please, _____," he whispered, his voice failing him as tears rolled down his cheeks. "Please, don't go."
Ludwig remained in that state until the doors to Trauma Room 1 opened an hour later. He quickly and subtly wiped away his tears and stood up as _____ was being rolled out.
"_____--" He started to follow when a doctor grabbed his arm.
"Are you a friend of hers?" he asked.
Ludwig looked at the doctor and nodded. "Ja. I'm . . . her boyfriend." He glanced down the hallway in the direction _____ was being rolled. "What's wrong with her?"
The doctor sighed slightly. "She suffered what looks like a stroke. Fortunately, only a minor one. Was she doing anything strenuous prior?"
"Ja. She was outside for several hours."
The doctor nodded. "Can give me some information about her?"
Ludwig blinked. "Like what?"
The doctor chuckled. "Well, her name is a good start." He held out his hand. "I'm Doctor Evans."
Ludwig shook his hand. "Ludwig Beilschmidt."
Evans smiled. "Nice to meet you. Now, shall we discuss your girlfriend?''
". . . Ja."
After two more hours, the hospital had enough information on _____ to go with, Ludwig had called the other boys to tell them at what hospital they were, and had told _____'s parents about the situation. Now came the difficult part: the visit.
Ludwig stood in front of the doorway of _____'s room in the ICU. His stomach was in knots as he thought of what to say, what to expect. He hesitantly opened the door and what he saw made the knots in his stomach grow tighter. _____ lay in the deep hospital bed with multiple IV's sticking into her arm and a tube wrapped around her head sending oxygen into her nostrils. She was asleep but still very pale and lifeless.
Ludwig walked over to her bedside. "_____?"
No response.
Very slowly, _____'s eyes fluttered open, instantly locking onto Ludwig's. The steady beeping of the machine keeping track of _____'s heart rate started to speed up. Ludwig gave a half-smile. "Hallo, mein liebe."
_____'s heart rate gradually slowed down, returning to normal. She looked at Ludwig blankly for a moment, taking in his expression. Despite the little smile, he looked sad, scared.
"You okay?" she asked, her voice only a whisper.
Ludwig felt his heart breaking again. "J-Ja. . ." he forced out. "Are you alright? Do you need anything?"
_____ thought for a moment. She closed her eyes and furrowed her brows, letting out a quiet groan.
"What's wrong?" Ludwig asked.
"I keep hearing something," she said. "I keep hearing that damn metronome."
Ludwig blinked at her, trying to figure out what she was talking about. Then he remembered that the band director liked to hook the metronome up to a loudspeaker. It must have been ringing in her ears. Ludwig didn't quite know what to say or do. It was an odd thing to say when lying in a hospital bed. It was an odd thing to say in general.
"J-Ja. . ." After a short silence, Ludwig took _____'s hand. "But seriously, schatz. Are you alright?"
"Oh, yeah. I'm great," she said casually, even though she looked and sounded like an absolute mess.
Ludwig kissed her hand, holding it up to his lips as he spoke. "Don't lie to me, schatz. You almost died out there."
_____ did something Ludwig did not expect. She let out a weak laugh from deep within her throat. She closed her eyes."Yeah. I know."
"Don't laugh at such a thing!" he snapped. "You almost died! I almost lost you! Do you know how worried I was?! How scared I was when I saw you lying on the ground as pale as a ghost?! It terrified me! So don't laugh!"
_____ stared at Ludwig, wide-eyed. Her heart rate rose again, and it was displayed on the monitor. Ludwig saw, thinking that she might be put under unnecessary stress, and forced himself to calm down.
"Es tut mir leid," he muttered. "Und I'm sorry about earlier with Victoria. . ."
"I-It's okay. . ."
Ludwig sighed in relief, knowing that she knew it wasn't his fault Victoria kissed him and that she would forgive him so easily. He gently placed his hand on her cheek, causing her to close her eyes and smile contently.
"Ich liebe dich," he said softly. "I love you so much. Und I don't want to ever lose you."
"I love you, too."
"Man, the show looks great from here!" said _____ as she took a sip of her Coke.
Due to her heat stroke, _____ was not allowed to participate in any strenuous activity for a long time. Unfortunately, marching band was included in the list, so she was no longer able to be in marching band. Two months later, _____ came to her first football game of the season just to see her band's halftime show (and to see her football team kick some butt). After a bit of convincing, she managed to get Ludwig, Feliciano, Gilbert, and Alfred to come with her (although Alfred didn't need much convincing).
Alfred sipped his drink, then realized it was empty. "Hey guys, I'm gonna go get a refill. Anyone want anything?"
_____ handed him a few dollars out of her wallet. "Yeah, get me a pretzel."
Gilbert gave Alfred money and his order before Alfred left for the concession stand. _____ watched the band as they marched gracefully across the field. The show was so wonderful, and all the band members were so happy to be in band and loving every minute of it. It made her smile while she looked on. But it also made her sad when she thought about not being able to be there, not being able to share in those memories. She leaned her head on Ludwig's shoulder. Hot tears threatened to leave her eyes, but she kept them back. She wouldn't allow them to see her like this.
She sniffled, causing Ludwig to look at her. "Are you alright, schatz?"
"Hm? Yeah, I'm fine."
The show ended, and _____ stood up and cheered loudly for her band. After a moment of joyous "Whoo!"-ing, she sat back down next to her boyfriend, still feeling a hint of disappointment.
Before she could object, Ludwig wrapped his arm around her, pulling her close to him. He kissed her forehead. "I'm sorry. I know you wanted to be in it. I'm sorry that you couldn't."
_____ nuzzled his neck. "It's not your fault. You couldn't control what my body wanted to do." She sighed, letting out a small, humorless laugh. "You might be a band nerd if you cry when you find out you can't be in band."
Ludwig smiled sadly. He knew _____ almost never cried, and would only cry if she was either extremely depressed or extremely frustrated. In this case, it was both. He kissed her cheek. "You know what?"
She looked up at him. "What?"
"Ich liebe dich immer noch," he whispered into her ear, sending chills down her spine.
She smiled sweetly at him. "Ich liebe dich auch." She closed the space between them with a warm, gentle kiss. After a moment Ludwig deepened the kiss and cupped _____'s cheek in his palm.
The two pulled away and looked at Alfred, who had a pretzel in one hand and a hot dog and Coke in the other. He was standing on the bleachers in front of them with an arched eyebrow. "You guys done?"
Ludwig blushed and _____ giggled as she took the pretzel and thanked Alfred. "Sorry," she mumbled.
"_____ and Ludwig, sitting in a tree~!" chanted Gilbert. "K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"
_____ reached over Ludwig to smack Gilbert on the arm. He laughed loudly at this. "Easy, schwester! You don't have to be so defensive! I'm completely fine with you making out with mein bruder!"
_____ rolled her eyes.
"Well, I love that Ludwig and sorella are together!" chimed Feliciano.
After a little more debating and rebuttals, the group went back to watch the game. _____ and Alfred stood up and cheered and high-fived each other whenever the team got a touchdown.
_____ tore off a piece of what was left of her pretzel and offered it to Ludwig. "Want some?"
Ludwig looked at it, then took it in his fingers and put it n his mouth. He looked surprised. "Wow. It's good."
She smiled. "What, you think Germany's the only place that makes quality pretzels?"
"Nein. I just didn't expect a high school concession stand to make a quality pretzel."
_____ raised an eyebrow. "Mm-hm." She watched the two football teams run around on the field, thinking about how graceless somebody looks on the field when they're not marching. She smiled sadly and sighed. "You know, I may be sad that I'm not in band anymore, but at least I've got you guys." She looked at Ludwig. "At least I've got you."
Ludwig smiled at her, kissing again fully on the lips.

Translate this page Suspect allegedly goes for officer's gun during struggleFriday, August 29th, 2014 Issue 35, Volume 18.
Carleton Alvin Emerich, 49, was taken into custody Thursday night after a tussle with officers in the 1200 block of Florida Avenue. According to Hemet police, an officer was sent to a check-cashing business around 5:35 p.m. to investigate reports of a man and woman attempting to cash a forged check. The officer encountered Emerich and 24-year-old Amanda Marie Dunaway, both of Arizona, and began questioning them, police said. Emerich allegedly tried to bolt from the location, leading to a struggle between the suspect and officer. "As the officer Advertisement No one was injured. Police allege the two suspects had stolen a check from a nearby medical office and were attempting to cash it. Emerich was booked into the Southwest Detention Center in Murrieta on suspicion of attempting to remove a peace officer's firearm and resisting arrest, both felonies. Dunaway was booked into the Robert Presley Detention Center in Riverside on suspicion of burglary and receiving stolen property. She is being held in lieu of $5,000 bail. 1 comments
Wow. Talk about dumb and dumber! Steal a check from a nearby medical office, go to a nearby check cashing business and try to cash said stolen check. Yea, that'll work! Let's see, the check isn't made out to you, is from a nearby medical place that would likely be recognized by the cashier, and you take the stolen check to a place to cash it that know exactly what to look for because it's their business! They're check cashers!! These two aren't exactly the brightest bulbs in the pack eh? Were they actively trying to get caught perhaps?

Tried It, Loved It: April Edition
I would like to create lots of new recipes for the blog, but it is hard getting good pictures when it's dark by the time you get home. And I also wanted to keep a record of the good recipes that I would eat again since my Pinterest boards are getting a little out of hand. So instead of posting my meal plan recipes for the week ahead, I'm only giving you the GOOD recipes that are tried and true! Hope you can get some ideas too!
- Against All Grain: Paleo Banana Chocolate Chip Pancakes
So good! Keeping this recipe on hand. Didn't have almond flour and used almond meal instead, also didn't let the eggs get to room temperature and they turned out fine. I topped them with a frosting made of almond butter, maple syrup, and coconut with a sprinkling of hemp hearts.
- Buffalo Baked Eggs
To make:
- Crack 2 eggs in a greased pan on medium heat
- Cook for a few minutes until whites are set but yolk is runny
- Put a slice of sprouted bread in a ramekin, then the eggs, then top with 2 teaspoons blue cheese and hot sauce.
- Broil on high for a few minutes until cheese is melty!
- Add diced avocado to cool off your tongue.
- Gabby's Gluten-Free: Paleo Apple Bread Pudding Muffins
So moist and sweet. Most of the substance was from the grated apples, which packed a lot of nutrients. I baked them for 30 minutes, which I think was too little time. Next time I will bake them for 35-40 minutes. I also topped them with unsweetened coconut shreds! Just like dessert. Yum!
- Feast On The Cheap:Tuscan Sausage Soup
I made this in the crockpot. I swapped out the canned tomatoes for a can of tomato paste and a cup of roasted red pepper sauce, swapped the fresh spinach for frozen spinach, the dried basil for fresh basil, and the sausage for Italian Chicken Sausage. Definitely needed to remove the casings of the sausage before cooking. I dumped everything in the crockpot except for the noodles, cooked on low for 8 hours, then added uncooked whole wheat shells for 10 minutes on high. Sprinkled on a bit of mozzarella and voila!
- Heather's Dish:Chorizo Lentil Stew
The best stew! We did this in a crockpot and added the spinach in the last 10 minutes of cooking. I also added chopped onions and an extra cup of chicken broth.
This was delicious. I will use about half of the butter next time and add more veggies.
- Half Baked Harvest: Buffalo Chicken Quinoa Salad
Also good. Used half of the olive oil and hot sauce for the dressing, used less cheese, and a bit less quinoa with more broccoli.
Snacks and Sweets
- All Day I Dream About Food:Gluten-Free Meyer Lemon Cake
The best mug cake I have had. No spongey-texture, only fluffy light goodness!
- Eat Yourself Skinny:Funfetti Cake Dip
Incredibly easy. I scooped servings into cupcake liners along with animal crackers for people to have their individual servings. I should have bought a second box of animal crackers.
Like I said in the post, I ate 4 of these in one day. I think that speaks for itself.
- My New Roots:Mango Cashew Sunshine Bites
Great flavor, but they were very fragile. If I make these again, I might put more substance so they stick together better.
- Stinoseckano:Sassy Water
I made this for a group, but have been drinking it around the house. Very flavorful, and mint is good for digestion so this is the perfect drink post-meals. Best when consumed within 2 days.
- Orange Ginger Fizz
Add fresh cut oranges to pitcher, half a lime sliced thinly, 1/2 an inch of fresh ginger root sliced thin, and club soda. Let steep for 2 hours. Best when consumed within 2 days.
I love carbonation, and with the fresh ingredients it is even healthier. The flavor was good and the ginger helps to relax the stomach and release any nausea.

Well, You can only tell someone not to do something stupid so many times before they learn the hard way... We have an "Administrative Assistant"(read receptionist) at our office that routinely leaves her purse sitting next to her desk RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE MAIN DOOR in plain site. She'll leave the desk for short periods for trips to other parts of the building etc and leave the purse. I've called her on it a couple of times and took the purse TO her each time and reminded her not to do it and WHY not to do it.
Well, it happened today. Someone apparently ran in the front door (which we leave unlocked during biz hours - much to my MAJOR DISAGREEMENT...but it's not my call...soooo), grabbed the purse, and ran out. The suspect got away site unseen. Of course the camera's that we have all over the building managed to fail 2 nights ago with no one(IE me - so that one is on me) noticing that it was in a failed state. So effectively they got away squeeky clean WITHOUT their mug being taken(so now I feel like crap, but in my defense, I can't be a one-man army forever without slipping up along the way -and that's really what I am...A one man army. I run the whole IT shop pretty much by myself with little to no budget).
Onwards and upwards...I went through the whole speal of making sure she called in her Creditcards etc... and made sure she called and filed a police report and made sure she was going to call the big 3(the credit bureaus). The worst thing was that she's pretty sure she had her SS card in her wallet in the purse. UGH! PLEASE for the love of PETE (whoever that guy really is)...DONT carry around your SS card everywhere and especially not WITH your DL and Creditcards and Insurance cards and and and....
What's the old saying...You can lead a horse to water, but can't make it drink. Hopefully she gets it all resolved, although if I was her, I'd be a bit weary of ID theft for QUITE a LOONG time now.
Ok, now for the ironic part....ready???? SHE USED TO BE AN LEO!!!
One would think she would know better to begin with. Oh well. Live and Learn.

BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Karen Armstrong's Twelve Steps to a Compassionate Life.
In this stunningly intelligent book, Karen Armstrong, one of Britain's foremost commentators on religious affairs, traces the history of how men and women have perceived and experienced God, from the time of Abraham to the present. From classical philsophy and medieval mysticism to the Reformation, the Enlightenment, and the modern age of skepticism, Karen Armstrong performs the near miracle of distilling the intellectual history of monotheism into one superbly readable volume, destined to take its place as a classic.

We ate here twice during our two week stay in Burgau and both times had lovely tasty Indian food. Very surprised at its low rating on here. I would def recommend.
For sure not the most authentic and best indian food ever, but it's good and the staff is friendly. And it's in the middle of the village ;-)
Behind the rather ordinary exterior of this restaurant is a hidden gem. We had a wonderful meal here. The food was lovely, fresh and served by courteous staff. The peshwari nans were to die for....I cannot recommend this enough!
I walked by this place on the way to my hotel. The smell was so enticing I had to pop in for dinner. I had the Chicken Tikka Masala and it was spot on! So good! Not to mention the staff was so friendly and engaged in convo. with me as I was dining alone.
Our first choice for a Saturday lunch in Burgau was closed. We didn't want to eat at a snack bar or beach burger joint so we picked this Indian restaurant. The service was very friendly. We ordered a vegetarian pakora as a starter, and gobi aloo and channa massala for main dishes with rice. The food came out a little... More
We travelled in India and love indian food, but we have to say that it was not as good as expected. Restaurant have variety of indian dishes, but not very spicy and not as subtle as expected. Service was ok (Indian TV playing all evening), prices is ok as well.
The food is fresh and made on spot. It is so tasty. Like you are eating in India. The service is also very nice. There were 4 of us and we all enjoyed it very much
This place is great. Food is brilliant and the waiter was so nice! Good value for money and exellcent service. We will always choose this indian in burgau. Definitely recommend! Thanks
We had a really good food in this tiny restaurant, really tasty authenic currys with lots of tasty sides. The staff were very friendly and attentive and portions were too large so we got a doggy bag with a few tasty extras.

Connect with friends and sharpen your grey cells with this column.
The deal is from a pairs tournament in which a simple play eluded all the declarers.
West leads club nine, RHO plays the six and you win with the queen. Plan the play.
Analysis: When dummy hits, you find that the opponents are down one in four spades, if clubs are 3-2. It is most likely however that every south will bid five heart as a save against four spades.
How the play went: After winning the first trick with the club queen, south played the heart queen. West won and played a second club. Declarer won with the jack and played one more heart. West won and put partner in with a spade to obtain a club ruff.
Result: Down two, 300 for EW. The full deal:
Where was the mistake?: Declarer should play a spade at trick two to cut the communication between the defending hands, a 'Scissor Coup'. Now the defenders cannot engineer a club ruff and you escape for one down.
If you give 100 away, you get 90 per cent score. If you give 300 away, you get 40 per cent score only.
Discussion: On most problems if we ask the proper questions, the answers will guide us to the correct solution. Here, south should have asked "What is the motif behind west's club lead?" It would have been abundantly clear to him that west if trying for a ruff. It is then a simple matter of executing the Scissor Coup by playing a spade at trick two.
If west simply starts with the spade jack as his opening lead, declarer is held to nine tricks for there are not enough entries to take the club finesse and repeat it. Playing a club, which is the declarer's second suit, was a terrible mistake indeed.

DAVE RAMSEY: Debt is not part of inheritance
Hear Dave Ramsey's syndicated radio show 6-8 a.m. weekdays on News Talk 960 KGKL-AM.
Dear Dave: My in-laws have lots of debt. In fact, they're always joking that the debt they'll leave us is more than the inheritance. How will this affect my wife and family if they die with all their debt still in place? — Matthew
Dear Matthew: You do not inherit debt. Either your in-laws are misinformed, or it's just a bad joke on their part. Now, if you were foolish enough to co-sign on a loan with them, then you'd be liable for the remainder of that loan. But if they ran up $100,000 in credit card debt on their own before they died, then the credit card companies just don't get paid. It wouldn't cost you a dime, except that you might get no inheritance from them, because what they left behind would be sold to pay off as many creditors as possible.
Here's an even bigger example. Let's say they owned a home, and they're behind on the mortgage or upside down on the house — meaning that they owed more on it than it's worth. You can just hand it back to the mortgage company. You're not legally or morally obligated to accept the house and the situation surrounding it because it was left to you in a will. Just because it's family doesn't make it jump over onto your plate.
Let me say it again, Matthew. You don't inherit debt. Don't let creditors, or anyone else, tell you differently.
Dear Dave: What do you think about land as an investment? — Tara
Dear Tara: I'm OK with the idea of raw land as an investment. Someone has to buy the dirt that holds the Earth together, right?
The only problem with this kind of investment is it doesn't create cash flow, unless it's farmland. In the real estate world, we call raw land an alligator because it eats. You have to pay taxes on it every year, plus you have upkeep and maintenance of some form or fashion, and it doesn't create an income. The only time it creates income is on the back end, when you sell the land.
It's not a terrible investment, Tara. But it's not a great one, either. I buy pieces of raw land here and there, every once in a while. But mainly I stick with income-producing investment properties.
Dear Dave: I recently traded in my old truck for a much newer one. I purchased an extended warranty at the time, and now I feel like I was pressured into buying it and that it was a mistake. What do you think? — Laura
Dear Laura: Cancel it, if you still can. The reason you felt pressured is because you probably were pressured by a pushy salesman. Seventy-five percent of what you paid for that plan went straight into the dealership's or salesman's pocket as commission. There's even a chance they made more off the extended warranty than the sale of the truck.
Extended warranties are only about 12 percent actual, statistical risk. The other 12 to 13 percent goes to miscellaneous overhead and profit. On top of that, the company that wrote the warranty probably didn't make as much on it as the dealership did. It's weird, but that's how a lot of those models work.
I don't buy extended warranties, Tara. In my mind, they're just crap. Besides, if you buy something and can't afford to fix it if something goes wrong, then you couldn't afford the purchase in the first place.

Young Clarets pair to go Dutch
Two of Burnley's youth team have been called up by their country and will be going Dutch next week when they take part in the UEFA Under-17 Elite Stage Tournament. Goalkeeper Conor Mitchell
Goalkeeper Conor Mitchell and right back Cameron Dummigan have received calls from Northern Ireland and will be off to Holland where they have been grouped with the host country, Italy and Norway for a place in the finals to be held in May in Slovakia.
Northern Ireland kick off their games against Holland on Thursday 21st March at Sportpark Parkzicht at Uden, kicking off at 7 p.m. local time.
Two days later, at the same venue, they face Norway (2 p.m. kick off) before bringing their games to an end on Wednesday 27th March. Italy are their last opponents and this game will be played at Sportpark 'In de Bandert' at Echt.
Both Mitchell and Dummigan featured in all three games in Northern Ireland's successful qualifying round last October in Estonia.
On that occasion they beat Wales 4-0, drew 1-1 against Estonia before losing 3-2 against an England side that included Chelsea's Alex Kiwomya, son of former Burnley loan player Andy.

I recently acquired and prepared a 59 gallon used pinot barrel from a local winery and am interested in creating a collaboration brew to age in the barrel. I have the space to add one more barrel if necessary. I'm thinking Flanders Red, Oud Bruin, or Lambic, but am open for suggestions. The barrel will be located in Beaverton, in a temperature controlled swamp cooler. I am developing recipes and will soon introduce some bugs into the barrel. What I'm looking for are a few skilled homebrewers who want to brew part of the beer to add to the barrel. When it's time to split up, we can bring kegs over and split up the finished product and you can do with it whatever you want, be it further aging, adding fruit, bottling, or drinking. I have a 55 gallon fermenter we could primary in, or each contributor could primary at their house and bring over the finished beer to add to the barrel together. Please post your capacity here, as well as which style your interested in, and if you have any experience with sours. Thanks.
-Retired Homebrewer
Oh man I would love to make some sour beer with you! PM me and let's talk! I'm in SE Portland.
Will do. If anyone comes in and is interested, please post a message here so others can see it and gauge the interest in the project. I've had 3 others contact me through my blog and reddit, so we're at 4 so far.
I'm definitely interested, I'm in SW.
I live in Garden Home and would love to contribute to this.
How many gallons would you all like to contribute? Which style are you most interested in?
I could do 10 gallons depending on the OG, I'm open to any style.
I've PM'd you but want to leave feedback in the thread for others as well. I'm can contribute up to 10 gallons and am anxious to experiment pretty much with any style. An 'olde ale' that has actually been aged in oak with Brett & some bugs sounds pretty good - and historically interesting. But, I've enjoyed just about everything I've had from Cascade Barrel House. The only 'bugs' I have are sitting at the bottom of a Flanders Red that I've had for about 10 months, just a pitch of roeselare blend from wyeast. I'm in NE Portland
Just checking in to say that you are awesome, and I am jealous. Carry on.
Primary#1: BM's Loon Lake Smoked Porter Primary#2: Farmhouse Saison Brett Secondary#1-4: Empty Keg#1: Nothing fancy Choc Stout w/ nibs Keg#2: Graff Keg#3-4: Empty
I would be up for a lambic. Or (Cascade does this and I'm really fond of it) blend some Belgian Blonde and Tripels together, like their Figaro which is aged on Spanish lemon peel and Adriatic Fig (whatever those are). I'm super down! I have a 15 gallon keggle. I could provide between 6 and 12 gallons after primary is said and done. I've been wanting to do this but just don't have the space. Plus I'm young so I don't know where I'll be renting in a year, I'll certainly be out west! Hit me up.

Contact Sports Desk: Call: 603-516-2949 / E-mail: email@example.com Cuban trip eye-opener for local athletes
Friday, January 31, 2014
DOVER — It was the chance of a lifetime and two local men felt fortunate to experience it — the rare opportunity to visit the Caribbean nation of Cuba and play baseball there.
Johnson is an entrepreneur major, who is playing on the UT varsity for the first time after three years with the JV team. He is a utility player who has done some catching, and played in the outfield as well as third and second base. Andrews, an exercise science major, had two appearances as a pitcher during the 2013 championship season, but expects to throw more this year as a reliever. He graduated from IMG Baseball Academy Florida, but also attended Portsmouth Christian Academy in Dover where he was a member of PCA's 2010 Division IV state championship baseball team. Andrews, a 6-foot-4 right-handed pitcher, had Tommy John surgery on his pitching arm during his senior year at IMG. Tampa happened to see him while he was rehabbing. They liked his size, build and projectability. He is currently throwing his fastball in the high 80s with a good breaking pitch.
Andrews said there was a lot of construction going on and he was impressed by how smart the people were — Cuba's literacy rate is 10th globally — even if they didn't have many of the amenities Americans are used to. "It was a touching place to be, an eye-opening experience," he said. "I'm still in shock. We have showers and clean water to drink." "What they have compared to what we have over here, they don't have much," Johnson said. "I'm grateful with what we have. It was kind of an eye-opener." There were no complaints about the food, although they had to watch what they drank and did not drink water from the tap. The players ate traditional Cuban dishes with black beans and rice, as well as dishes of cold beef, chicken and lobster. Then there was the baseball, which was very good. "They were very talented," Andrews said. "The infielders had very quick hands. They were big boys in their mid 20s. They didn't get cheated when they hit. It wasn't a joke. We had to come out and play."
"They love baseball, even more than people realize," Johnson said. "We saw kids playing in the streets with a bottle cap and a stick. It made you realize how privileged we are to play on fields with equipment." |

Hindu-Jewish relationships may seem like a modern phenomenon, but Hindus and Jews have been living together for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. Since perhaps as long ago as 175 B.C.E., a small but vibrant community of Jews known as the Bene Israel have lived in Bombay, spoken Marathi and taken Indian names. They also follow Jewish dietary laws and celebrate Shabbat and the High Holidays. In the new issue of our Web Magazine , we explore their American counterparts, Jews and Hindus who fall in love in our new globalized world.
Jason Jay, an American Jew, and Alaka Ray, a Hindu from India, met at a James Bond-themed party and immediately connected. In planning their wedding, they found numerous similarities between Jewish and Hindu ritual. But would their families find as much common ground as their children? We think their story will leave you stirred, not shaken. Read more in Uniting of the Tribes: Our Hindu-Jewish Wedding .
Unlike Alaka Ray, Jana Sikdar comes from a less traditional Hindu-Catholic interfaith family. But that doesn't mean her parents are ecstatic when they learn their daughter is dating a Jewish girl. Read more in Your Daughter Has Something to Tell You...
Reika Dutta didn't marry a Jew but her sister did. Both families celebrated the marriage, but over time subtle stereotypes have creeped into their conversations. "When I spoke with other members of my family, I found they wished Meena had married an Indian man," she says, in Seeds .
For Jews, circumcision is a fundamental way to mark boys as a member of the Jewish community. But for Hindus, circumcision brings up painful memories of sectarian violence when mobs stripped men to identify their religion and murdered--or released--them based on their circumcision status. Find out how one Hindu-Jewish couple tackled this conflict, in Tony Castleman's Walking Seven Circles. And read his mother's response, Coming to Terms with My Son's Choices, by Sallie Teitelbaum Castleman.
Rifka Klein is also the mother of a Jewish man who is in love with a Hindu woman. Their engagement offers a moment for her to reflect on what she's lost--and what she's gained, in My Jewish Son's Engagement to a Hindu Woman: Pluses and Minuses .
One of the more interesting aspects of the Indian-Jewish encounter is that while Jews have never been anything more than a miniscule minority in India, they've long played a prominent role in Bollywood. And this past February, the biggest Jewish star of them all, Nadira, died. Read about her fascinating, groundbreaking life in From Bollywood to the Sands of Jerusalem. And also read our review of Shooting Water , about how the daughter of a divorced Hindu-Jewish couple repaired her relationship with her mother by helping her make a movie.
No less accomplished is Ruth Prawer Jhabvala, who has won two Oscars for screenwriting and Britain's prestigious Booker Prize for literature. As a child, she fled Nazi Germany. As an adult, she married an Indian architect and moved to New Delhi. Read more in A Moment with... Ruth Prawer Jhabvala .
Our advice columnist Wendy Weltman Palmer responds to a mother who is concerned that her Hindu daughter-in-law won't raise the children Jewish because she believes the Jewish community won't accept them as Jews, in Dear Wendy: Will My Intermarried Son's Children Be Jewish?
Finally, we dip into our Article Archive to share the story of a Jewish woman whose brother left Judaism--and his family--more than 30 years ago to live on an ashram in India. Read more in Passage to India by Carol Kort.
What do you think? Join the discussion on the question "If a Hindu and a Jew are getting married, should they have a combined ceremony or one Jewish ceremony and one Hindu ceremony?"
We'll be taking an extra week off but returning with our issue on Dealing with Non-Jewish Relatives on Tuesday, Aug. 15.

Doctor Who Killed Michael Jackson Wants a Reality TV Show
Conrad Murray is out of jail as Quincy Jones files lawsuit over posthumous MJ projects
Conrad Murray was released from a Los Angeles jail on October 28 after serving nearly two years of a four-year sentence for the involuntary manslaughter of Michael Jackson. As CNN reports, Murray was given a sheriff's escort out of the facility early Monday morning for the "safety and security" of the jail, according to a sheriff's spokesman. A group of Jackson fans gathered outside of the prison were reportedly upset that authorities let Murray slip away through a back door, and settled for heckling the disgraced doctor's lawyer, Valerie Wass. TMZ caught video footage of Wass getting into a shouting match with some of MJ's followers — find the clip below.
The gossip site also reports that Murray is also planning to release a book about his life and relationship with Jackson. Sources connected to the cardiologist tell TMZ that Murray penned a large portion of the book — which apparently tries to shift the blame for the King of Pop's 2009 death on others — while serving out his jail time. The Associated Press reports that Wass said she knew her client had done some writing in prison, but claimed not to know if he's intending to line up a book deal. Wass did confirm that Murray would try to get his medical license reinstated in Texas (where it's been revoked), as well as California and Nevada (where it's been suspended), so he could resume practicing medicine.
But in case folks are a little wary about seeing a doctor who was convicted for the death of an icon, Murray may have a back-up gig in mind: a reality television show. Yes, TMZ claims that Murray is open to the idea of starring in a TV series about his life after prison, but it's not yet clear if any producers have expressed formal interest. In the meantime, Murray is appealing his conviction, in the hopes that his name can be cleared and his reputation repaired. He's also reportedly in the market for a much-needed publicist.
Jackson's name, meanwhile, is linked to yet another high-profile legal dispute. The Hollywood Reporter points out that Quincy Jones has brought a $10 million breach-of-contract lawsuit against Sony Music Entertainment and MJJ Productions, a song company controlled by the late pop star's estate. Jones filed a complaint in L.A. Superior Court on October 25, arguing that master recordings he worked on were wrongfully edited, remixed, and altered to cheat him out of back-end profits.
The iconic producer — who collaborated with Jackson on several of his best-selling albums, including 1979's Off the Wall, 1982's Thriller, and 1987's Bad — also alleges that he's been denied credit for work on posthumous MJ releases, and claims that Sony and MJJ have entered into shady agreements to collect profits that should have also been partially his by right of royalties. Some of the Jackson-related projects involved: the This Is It film and soundtrack, the 25th anniversary edition of Bad, and the Cirque du Soleil productions built around the late legend's songs.
"Quincy has been frustrated with these matters for a number of years, felt he was not making any progress, and needed to take more formal action," Jones' attorney, Henry Gradstein, told THR.
Deals that Jones made with Jackson in 1978 and 1985 supposedly give Jones first crack at remixing or re-editing any of the master recordings for albums he worked on. Said contracts also reportedly stipulate that coupling the masters with any other recordings requires Jones' written permission, and that he be given a producer's credit, in addition to compensation.
Read the entire complaint (via the Hollywood Reporter), which is requesting $10 million in damages, as well as unpaid royalties, remixing fees owed, and compensation for the credit he would have received.

All right, let's jut talk about the costume briefly and get it out of the way since we've kind of beat this horse dead already.
No, I don't like the new costume. But it's not just because I don't like the look of it (though I don't). It's because it simply doesn't feel like Wonder Woman. I don't like the way it looks, but that's fine, everyone has different tastes and we're never ALL going to agree so it's a fools errand anyway. Yes, I would prefer if the costume was more "fashion forward", more modern and clean-lined rather than feeling like a fussy design throwback to 80's fashion and 90's comics. And while we're here I'll flat out say that I think this Jamie McKelvie design comes really close without even trying.

The visual of the crowd at the Han Chiang High School replying 'NO' loudly to Najib's question during BN's Chinese New Year open house in Penang went viral on the internet over the past few days.
However Barisan Nasional leaders were quick to deny the clip showing Penangites' rejecting BN as sabotage.
Penang BN Chief Teng Chang Yeow believed saboteurs were behind the response when Najib asked the question.
According to Sinar Harian, the Gerakan leader said he had video recordings showing many in attendance shouting "Yes!" in response to the prime minister's question.
Teng also alleged the saboteurs were wearing the yellow, green and red colored T-shirts as suggested by DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng.
Meanwhile, According to Nanyang SiangPau Gerakan President Koh Tsu Koon said only a small number of people shouted 'NO' when Najib asked the crowd whether they were ready to support BN. Koh also said that the strong turnout on that day showed that BN had regained strong support in Penang.
