Many of you folk might remember when Larry Flynt, sickened by the grotesque hypocrisy of the Capitol Hill Republicans attacking Bill Clinton over his private life, offered to pay $1 million to any person or persons who could provide him with iron-clad evidence of congressional or senatorial hanky-panky by any of the elected officials currently castigating President Clinton. His efforts led to the downfall of both Newt Gingrich and alleged BDSM aficionado Bob Livingston, and very nearly derailed the impeachment juggernaut.

A Fool and His Money
|By: cocktailhag Thursday December 13, 2012 8:00 pm
One of the deepest divides in our alarmingly escalating Class War is one of mutual misunderstanding between the two sides about what money is for: The Job Creators can't comprehend why the Lower Orders should have such fripperies as food, housing, and medical care (or worse, cell phones and TV's), while those being steadily ground into mush under their well-shod heels can't understand why people with enough money to buy their own states don't at least buy states where the weather is better.

|By: cocktailhag Wednesday August 29, 2012 8:00 pm
The increasingly surreal reality show that is the Republican Convention is rapidly shaping up to be one of the most offensive displays of mendacity, racism, and bloodlust the Republicans have yet performed, as evidenced in the "color" stories coming out of it. From a black CNN camera operator pelted with nuts by some slack-jawed cracker slurring, "this is how we feed animals," and a Puerto Rican billionairess speaker shouted down by the mob chanting, "USA," Ann Romney waxing lyrical about her "real" marriage, to a bloated and surly Chris Christie bragging about union-busting in his laughable fake Sopranos style, the whole undeniably engrossing spectacle, harried by a hurricane, is just a few midgets shy of a Fellini movie.
FDL Book Salon Welcomes Doug Saunders, The Myth of the Muslim Tide

Doug Saunders is a journalist of the rare kind these days. He actually researches, explores, investigates and only then reports on the major trends of our global community. His earlier book, Arrival City, explored "the final shift of human populations from agricultural life to cities… —from Maryland to Shenzhen, from the favelas of Rio to the shanty towns of Mumbai, from Los Angeles to Nairobi. " His new book The Myth of the Muslim Tide addresses the fearful response of so many Americans and Europeans to one key constituency of that shift, Muslim immigrants.
Republican Party's Embrace of Privatizing Medicare via Vouchers is Now Complete

More on the Irrelevant Welfare Debate in the Presidential Campaign
|By: David Dayen Thursday August 9, 2012 12:10 pm
This welfare dustup in the Presidential election, as I said earlier in the week, generates a lot of heat as an argument while being irrelevant to the actual issue. Newt Gingrich, the architect of welfare reform in the 1990s who has been employed by the Romney campaign as a spokesman, admitted last night that there's no proof that the waivers provided by the Department of Health and Human Services would lead to direct cash payments to beneficiaries, which it wouldn't.

We are grateful for such comings and goings.

London — Polish Film Institute chief Agnieszka Odorowicz has lauded the Oscar win for Pawel Pawlikowski's "Ida" as recognition of the "strength and originality of Polish cinema."
The film, which was co-financed by the Pfi, is the first Polish movie to win an Academy Award in the foreign-language film category. The victory coincides with the Pfi's 10th anniversary.
"The Academy recognized the strength and the originality of Polish cinema. I am very happy tonight, and I would like to extend my most heartfelt congratulations to the filmmakers," Odorowicz said. "The fact that a Polish film received this Academy Award also serves as a beautiful and symbolic crowning of 10 years of Polish Film Institute activity in supporting Polish cinema."
Nine Polish films have been nominees in the Oscar's foreign-language film category, most recently Agnieszka Holland's "In Darkness" in 2011, and Andrzej Wajda's "Katyn" in 2007.
"Ida" was co-produced by »

Drive Your Plough Over the Bones of the Dead
Director: Agnieszka Holland // Writers: Agnieszka Holland, Olga Tokarczuk
After working heavily in television since her last celebrated film, 2011's In Darkness (which received an Oscar nod for Best Foreign Language Film), Polish auteur Agnieszka Holland finally looks to be readying a new feature after a year that saw her revamp 'Rosemary's Baby' as a tv mini-series, as well as her more notable project, Burning Bush. Based on the novel by Olga Tokarczuk, one of the most famous figures in contemporary Polish literature, adapting the novel for the screen has been a labor of love for Holland who has been wanting to make the project for some time. Last summer it as announced that filming would begin at the end of the year and casting was underway, while Holland's DoP from In Darkness, Jolanta Dylewska, was on board. We're hoping it's still underway, »

The nine foreign-language films shortlisted by the Academy hail from three continents: South America, Europe and Africa. From South America, Argentina's Wild Tales and Venezuela's The Liberator made the list. From Africa, Mauritania's Timbuktu did as well. From Europe, Estonia's Tangerines, Georgia's Corn Island, the Netherlands' Accused, Poland's Ida, Russia's Leviathan and Sweden's Force Majeure all made the top nine.
This year could mark the first Oscar nomination for Estonia, Georgia, Mauritania (whose film was the country's first Oscar-submitted film) and Venezuela. Argentina, the Netherlands, Poland and Sweden have each received two Oscar nominations in the past 14 years. Of those four countries, Argentina is the only one to win an Oscar, which it did in 2010 for The Secret in Their Eyes. If Russia lands a nomination, it will be the country's second in the 21st century. »

Set in 1960s Poland, Pawel Pawlikowski's black-and-white drama Ida focuses on faith and identity after family secrets are revealed. Anna (Agata Trzebuchowska) is a young orphan brought up in a convent preparing to take her vows to become a nun. When told she must visit her aunt, her only living relative, Anna discovers she's Jewish, her name is actually Ida and her parents were killed in WWII. Anna/Ida and her aunt embark on a journey to learn more about the family's history and discover the truth about what happened.
The film landed on the Oscar shortlist for best foreign-language film and was nominated for a Golden Globe in the same category.
A number of foreign films focused on WWII have done well at the Oscars throughout the years. Ones based on real events include The Counterfeiters (2007), about the Nazis' attempt to »

craftman 139.664 garage door opener
I bought a house with a craftsman 139.664 garage door opener. It has a keypad on the outside. How can I reset the key pad? The previous owners did not use it and did not know the code. I've searched the internet for a user manual and talked with sears parts central. She told me to look for the manual online...not much help.
The model number you give is missing several digits but:
If the keypad is hardwired do this:
To program the keypad, first unplug the garage door opener from the electrical outlet. Next, remove the nameplate from the console that the keypad plugs into and locate the program/operate switch. Flip the switch to program. Next, enter your desired four-digit PIN number into the keypad. Slide the switch back to operate and plug the garage door opener back in. The keypad should be programmed.
If the keypad is wireless do this:
Locate the smart/learn button on the rear of the motor unit near where all those white wires go. Press and immediately release this and then walk over to the keypad and key in any 4 digit code you like and press enter.
There may be other things involved but without a full model number no one can know.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
17 Jun 2013 23:06 GMT | Politics, Europe, Russia, Syria, United Kingdom
Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart Barack Obama have discussed the Syrian conflict in a meeting on the sidelines of the G8 summit in Northern Ireland.The leaders of Russia and the US openly back rival sides in the country's two-year civil war with Russia under criticism from G8 leaders for backing Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
"Our positions do not fully coincide, but we are united by the common intention to end the violence and to stop the number of victims increasing in Syria," Putin said."We agreed to push the process of peace talks and encourage the parties to sit down at the negotiation table, organise the talks in Geneva."
Live Box 2012108933861442
Obama conceded that they have a "different perspective" on Syria, but they have a shared interest in stopping the violence and securing chemical weapons in the country.
Both leaders looked tense and uncomfortable as they addressed reporters after about two hours of talks, with Putin staring mostly at the floor as he spoke about Syria and Obama only glancing occasionally at the Russian leader.
The G8 summit of leading industrial nations kicked off in Northern Ireland with Western leaders raising pressure on Russia over its support for Syria's regime.
Earlier David Cameron, UK prime minister, welcomed the leaders of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the US on Monday, and said there was "a big difference" between the positions of Russia and the West on Syria.
Western leaders have criticised Putin for supporting Assad in his battle to crush a two-year-old uprising, setting the stage for what could be a difficult meeting of world leaders over Monday and Tuesday.
Russia said it would not permit no-fly zones to be imposed over Syria.
Earlier in London, Putin insisted that Russia had abided by international law when supplying weapons to Assad's regime and demanded that Western countries contemplating arming the opposition do the same.
"We are not breaching any rules and norms and we call on all our partners to act in the same fashion," Putin said.
He referred to a video released last month purportedly showing a rebel Syrian fighter eating the heart of a dead soldier.
He asked if the West really wanted to support rebels "who not only kill their enemies but open up their bodies and eat their internal organs in front of the public and the cameras".

Whoa...guess this means beer is finally hitting the big time.
Went into my local Costco today and for the first time I saw pallets and pallets of great beer. They've always had some variety cases and what not of microbrew, but now it's bottles of Chimay Duval, Firestone, Ommegang (3 bottles with their glass), Allagash, North Coast Brewing Brother Thelonius, etc. It was amazing.
Somebody from here get hired as their buyer?
I keep waiting for my Costco to get a better selection. We recently visited my wife's grandfather and he had picked up an awesome lambic variety pack from Costco. He's always getting something great there when he knows I'm bringing my beer over.
Very cool!!! I see your from Cali so I'm going to make a trip there this week, good prices???
The costco's in the UK don't have any Belgian beers, and yet we are only about 70 miles from Belgium!
SAM'S here in Hawai`i has about 4 micro brews to choose from.
Kaiser Ridge Brewing
Fermenting: Am. Pale Ale(3/28)
Fermenting: Am Imperial Stout(3/11)

Just hit costco the other day before a B&B outing with my wife. i went in saying they never have pints of decent craft beer. Had to eat my words! Great surprise! I just see the market rapidly rapdly maturing. if you're still just focusing on the same ole Bud, coors crap your sales have to be suffering!
I hate hearing about this as a Canadian with a Costco right near by that sells nothing alcoholic, ugh.

Why god why!?
I picked up a really nice 24 multipack of Pyramid beers from Costco (Octoberfest, IPA, Wheat, Barleywine) last time I was there. They really have started to pick up on this trend.

Carrying a knife: Officer safety and administrative considerations
The carrying of a knife by on duty law enforcement officers has become quite widespread. Officers spend a lot of time reading through police and military supply catalogs and comparing knives. Unfortunately, few officers have contemplated a host of issues that come with the packing of the edged weapon.
Here are a few of the items for you to ponder when it comes to knives:
Why do you carry your knife?
Knives are carried by uniformed law enforcers for a variety of reasons ranging from their use as a defensive weapon to more utilitarian aims such as the cutting of safety belts at motor vehicle crashes. Some carry a knife "just because everyone else on the shift does." You need to ask yourself honestly why you carry your knife?
I also have to pose the additional question of whether your carrying of a knife is covered in your agency's policies and procedures. If so, how is it characterized and could your potential use of it fall out of policy? That may be a step that you might not want to take lightly. Your articulation of why you have it could change the way it is viewed by your administration.
Where do you carry your knife?
From an officer safety perspective, I have noticed that most officers (including myself for a few years) carry the knife clipped to the inside top of their pants pocket. It is very visible in that location.
For it to be utilized as a defensive weapon, and to prevent it being commandeered by an attacker, it would be better to secrete the knife in a manner that is accessible but not so apparent. I favor clipping it to the inside of the chest trauma plate protector pocket on the vest. You should be able to get to it quickly while still leaving it out of the public eye.
Have you trained with your knife?
You've trained with your firearm, expandable baton, pepper spray, and Taser. But have you trained with your knife? Many law enforcement veterans are familiar with the famous Calibre Press video of the trained knife fighter charging an officer and closing the 21 feet gap before the officer could draw his firearm. You don't want to happen upon a trained knife fighter who disarms you and now has the advantage.
The carrying of a knife may not be problematic for you provided that you are able to comfortably answer the above issues. Your survival, on a physical and a career level, may depend on it.

This is probable one of the most ridiculous storylines I have ever read from DC.
=====Spoiler Alert==== (This spoil should be more of a Godsend than a warning)
What happened to the days when Superman was a man and Lois was a woman? I miss those days. The days when you could escape into a world where women didn't hate men and men weren't attracted to women who do. I have watched most, if not all, of DC animation movies and this one was so bad I had to research its origin.
The story is written by Geoff Johns. Now, I haven't read his other works so this could be just a whiffed swing at the plate, but I did have to check his gender because he writes more feminine than masculine.
Let's start with Lois. Man-hating-feminists-of-the-world-unite! When did Lois move from spunky reporter to man hater? Nearly every scene she was in made me literally sick to my stomach. She was so bitter and nasty that it was hard to focus on the plot when she spoke. I guess the author wanted to make her tough sounding, but he only succeeded in making her sound like a cat-loving old hag in training. This is one reason why I am forced to preview Marvel/DC animation movies before/if I allow my kids to watch them. Sad.
Now let's talk about Brainac, one of Superman's most powerful enemies, brought down by getting dirty…literally. The author has Brainac incapable of handling getting muddy. This was such a feminization of Brainac; it would not have felt out of place if he broke down in tears during the final fight because he broke a fingernail. Seriously? When did writers become so lazy that "dirt" becomes the plot key?
Next let's look at Kara, a very wholesome looking girl who is mad at the world. When Superman goes off, she wages a world war on crime, which is fine, but the author gives the impression that she is doing this to either prove something or blow off this huge amount of anger that she has. The author tries to hide this by lines like, "she's the typical teenager" and other similar thoughts. I have never seen a girl this angry. "Doesn't know her own strength"? I have never encountered a girl that could physically hurt someone on accident. Boys yes; girls no. They just don't have the upper body strength. Now Geoff can say that she is Supergirl, but then you can't call her the "typical" teenager. Contradictions like this indicate the author is pushing some kind of agenda, not logic.
Last but not least, let's address Superman, the punching bag for Lois's sharp tongue. It's not that Lois has to fawn over Superman, but a thank you would be nice. The author shrouds her anger in some kind of boundary issue that she states, but, if Wonder Woman saved me, I don't think I would hesitate to say thank you. If my wife spoke to me this way, I would have serious reservations about her mindset towards our marriage. Common courtesy is a foundation. Lois is not only rude, but she implies that Superman's rescues are mandatory. And he sits there and takes it. No, "Hey Lois, a thank you would be nice." Nothing. No man that I know of is going to sit and take a tongue lashing just to appease someone else, female or not. Of course there are "males" that do act as doormats, but then again, they're not really men now are they?
I don't know if the author is planning a coming out party or not, but if this is how his other stories are written, then I'd say don't waste the money on a party, it's already evident. I hope that in the future DC will write stories where men as men and women are women. Neither needs to be subservient to the other, just have a little respect for each other.
To end on a positive note, the animation was decent. Obviously anime inspired but not overly done. Of course the graphic nature of the opening scene and one or two other scenes means it's a no-no for kids but besides that it was pretty good.

DEFINITION of 'Crisis Management'
The identification of threats to an organization and its stakeholders, and the methods used by the organization to deal with these threats. Due to the unpredictability of global events, organizations must be able to cope with the potential for drastic changes to the way they conduct business. Crisis management often requires decisions to be made within a short time frame, and often after an event has already taken place. In order to reduce uncertainty in the event of a crisis, organizations often create a crisis management plan.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Crisis Management'
Unlike risk management, which involves planning for events that might occur in the future, crisis management involves reacting to an event once it has occurred. An oil company for example, may have a plan in place to deal with the possibility of an oil spill, but if such a disaster actually occurs, the magnitude of the spill, the backlash of public opinion and the cost of cleanup can vary greatly and may exceed expectations.

Margarito, Williams ready for highly anticipated bout
Welterweight titlist Antonio Margarito and Paul Williams prepare to face off in another one of the best matchups of the year, writes Dan Rafael.
• Featherweight titlist Robert Guerrero will meet mandatory challenger Rocky Juarez on the Sept. 15 Juan Manuel Marquez-Jorge Barrios HBO PPV undercard at Las Vegas' MGM Grand, Shelly Finkel, who manages both, told ESPN.com. Guerrero promoter Dan Goossen and Golden Boy, which promotes Juarez and is promoting the card, reached a deal this week, adding a fourth fight to round out a competitive card that also includes Kassim Ouma-Sergio Mora and Steve Forbes-Francisco Bojado. One interesting storyline of Guerrero-Juarez is Finkel's role since managers can't represent both sides of a fight. "I've worked that out internally already," Finkel told ESPN.com. "I will only be in one corner that night." He declined to say which side he would be with.
• Golden Boy has cut ties with junior bantamweight titlist Fernando Montiel (33-2-1, 24 KOs), releasing him from his contract. "We reached a settlement with him. He wanted a release," Golden Boy VP Eric Gomez told ESPN.com. "We offered him fights and he turned them down. It's better to release him and go our separate ways. We wish him the best." Montiel, 28, and Golden Boy have had a rocky relationship even though Golden Boy got him on HBO and HBO PPV cards; however, his underwhelming performances made it difficult for Golden Boy to secure more TV slots for him. Montiel isn't wasting any time getting on with his career post-Golden Boy. He'll defend his belt against Cecilio Santos (22-7-2, 12 KOs) on Saturday in Mexico.
• Organizers of the Oct. 13 heavyweight unification fight between Sultan Ibragimov and Ruslan Chagaev at Moscow's 14,500-seat Khodynka Arena in Moscow, claim they offered fellow heavyweight titleholder Wladimir Klitschko an opportunity to fight on the card "in an effort to give the world an opportunity to see the best heavyweight champions fighting each other on a road to a potential unification of all four heavyweight belts." The news release went on to say that they had "secured the necessary financial backing to invite" Klitschko to fight on the card. It should come as no surprise that Klitschko, who headlines his own cards instead of fighting on someone else's, rejected the invitation, which was probably more a public relations ploy than serious offer. Klitschko defended his title last week with an easy TKO victory against Lamon Brewster in their rematch, but injured his left hand and probably won't fight for the rest of the year. The release, put out by Ibragimov's promotional team -- Seminole Warriors Boxing, Golden Grain Promotions, Sampson Lewkowicz and Golden Boy Promotions -- also said that if Ibragimov beats Chagaev, "he would be prepared to unify the titles further with Klitschko sometime next year."
• Now that Manny Pacquiao and Marco Antonio Barrera will meet in an HBO PPV rematch Oct. 6 at Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay, it means junior lightweight titlist Joan Guzman and top contender Humberto Soto are out as possible opponents for either of them. But in the wake of the Top Rank-Golden Boy settlement, the sides are talking about matching Guzman and Soto this fall, either on the Oct. 6 card or on a separate show. A lot will depend on Soto's willingness to forego a mandatory shot against the winner of the Sept. 15 Marquez-Barrios title bout and fight Guzman for his version of the title instead.
• Almazbek "Kid Diamond" Raiymkulov, a Las Vegas resident from Kyrgyzstan who escaped with a very iffy split-decision victory against Miguel Huerta on June 14, likely will parlay the questionable victory into a title opportunity. A fight between Raiymkulov (25-1-1, 14 KOs) and Thailand's Prawet Singwangcha (30-2-2, 18 KOs) for a vacant belt is in the works to headline an Aug. 30 Versus-televised card. Singwangcha was held to a questionable draw with Jose Cotto in Puerto Rico in May. Cotto is ineligible to fight for the belt because he was suspended by the Puerto Rican commission for his unsportsmanlike behavior during the bout. Blue chip junior welterweight prospect Victor Ortiz (18-1-1, 13 KOs) will fight on the undercard.
• The Peterson brothers, junior welterweight Lamont (21-0, 9 KOs) and lightweight Anthony (23-0, 17 KOs), had been ticketed to appear on the Sept. 7 season finale of ESPN2's "Friday Night Fights." However, co-manager Barry Hunter (also their trainer) has pulled them off the show and is talking to Showtime about a possible "ShoBox" doubleheader in November for them. Zab Judah, returning from his knockout loss to Miguel Cotto on June 9, headlines the "FNF" card in Biloxi, Miss., against an opponent to be named.
• Middleweight puncher Edison Miranda will return in October, Warriors Boxing promoter Leon Margules told ESPN.com. Margules said he will do a show at the company's base at the Hard Rock resort in Hollywood, Fla., featuring Miranda in his first bout since losing an all-action battle with Pavlik on May 19. He said he would have liked to do the fight on ESPN2's "Friday Night Fights," but the series finishes its season Sept. 7, so Margules said Miranda's comeback fight would be part of a pay-per-view card.
• Middleweight titlist Arthur Abraham (23-0, 18 KOs), who returned from a serious jaw injury and eight-month layoff to stop Sebastien Demers in the third round on May 26, will make his fifth defense against mandatory challenger Khoren Gevor (27-2, 15 KOs) on Aug. 18 in Berlin. It's a rare match between fighters representing rival German promoters Wilfried Sauerland (Abraham) and Peter Kohl's Universum (Gevor). The fight is also a rare meeting between famed German trainers Ulli Wegner (Abraham) and Fritz Sdunek (Gevor).
• Welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. won the ESPY Award for best fighter. Mayweather defeated Oscar De La Hoya on May 5 in boxing's highest-grossing fight ever. The pound-for-pound king, a first-time winner, beat out four other first-time nominees: Miguel Cotto, Manny Pacquiao and UFC fighters Randy Couture and Quinton Jackson. It was the first time boxers and mixed martial artists were in the same category.
• Vic Darchinyan (28-1, 22 KOs), who lost his flyweight title via explosive fifth-round knockout to underdog Nonito Donaire on July 7, told Australia's The Age that he will move up to junior bantamweight when he returns. When asked if he would continue at flyweight, Darchinyan is quoted as saying, "I don't think so because I weigh too much. I want to repeat at [junior bantamweight] what I did at flyweight."
"My job is to go in the ring and dominate my opponent, and that's what I'm going to do to Bernard. He's going to be dominated from Round 1. I'm going to break him down and he's going to go back to the retirement home because he should've stayed there. He should've stayed retired. He ended his career with a great fight by beating Antonio Tarver. Now, he's going to mess that up by getting beat by me."
-- Winky Wright, on his plans for light heavyweight champion Bernard Hopkins, whom he fights July 21 (HBO PPV) at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.

Any Dream Will Do
Thursday February 28, 2013
Linda Albert
Caregiver.com - A year ago, my husband was contemplating a surgery that would involve the implanting of a tiny electrode in his brain. If successful, it would mitigate against his Parkinson's symptoms, allow him to take less medicine, lessen his side effects and give him more independence and quality of life. The surgery took place on September 26th and for 10 amazing days he seemed like a new man. And then, in a flash, his colon decided to twist and everything fell apart. First the brain surgery. Then colon surgery. Followed by hernia surgery. And finally, three months ago, total hip replacement surgery, all in less than nine months' time.
All this week, I have found myself singing a line from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat in my mind. "A something of something, a flash of light, my golden coat flew out of sight. The world is plunged in darkness. I am all alone." It drives me crazy that I can't remember the words to the two "somethings." A clash of drums, maybe. But do drums actually clash? Cymbals yes. But drums? I'm close, I think, but I don't quite have it. It can't be thunder because the beat would be off. I search frantically through my CDs and tapes, sure I have the show among my belongings, but it's not there. And did the world turn dark or did it more dramatically plunge?
It's as though, if I can get the precise lyrics, I will be able to solve the mystery of this particular musical message and why it won't stop singing in my head. I throw myself upon the mercy of Google and am able to find a site with lyrics, but only the first two lines of each song are played as a tease to the listener who will then be compelled to buy the CD. I am too impatient and penurious to wait before starting to write. At least I'm reminded that the song is entitled "Any Dream Will Do," and that the lining of the coat of many colors, according to the Andrew Lloyd Weber version, is silver. I don't know if I ever focused on that before, even though I had the happy experience of being the stage director for two productions of "Joseph" in my distant past and think I should be familiar with the details.
Without an answer, I try to write a poem instead about the turtle excavation last Friday night to which I brought my daughter and 10-year-old grandson who were visiting from Boston. I am struck by the woman dressed entirely in white who dons the same kind of rubber gloves worn by the nurses in the hospital and the paid caregivers at home when they tend to my husband's bodily functions. From my perspective, she is surprisingly heedless of the knees of her white pants when she kneels on the beach; yet, like a surgical nurse, she carefully lays out, in lines she has drawn in the sand, the 80 rubbery, ping-pong ball sized unfertilized eggs and 15 hatched shells the male volunteer brings up from the nest. It is a disappointing night and very unusual. There are no live baby turtles in need of rescue down at the bottom. And usually the numbers would be reversed: 80 hatched who have hopefully made it into the sea, though many would have been eaten already by predators (such are the odds of turtle survival) and 15 unfertilized.
I think my poem might be interesting if I can round it out by telling how when I return home to relieve the caregiver, there is no crowd of fascinated observers encircling us, no group of volunteers passionate to save us, and when my husband needs help in the bathroom, it seems pointless to use gloves. "I do not use the gloves" would be a wonderful last line for my poem; I'm convinced of it, but I'm not clear about what to say before that, so the poem turns out as barren as the turtle nest and never gets out of the hole it is in, much less into the creative ocean or off the mundane ground.
So now I have resorted to stream of consciousness in order to see if there's anything I might yet learn. It occurs to me my unconscious is trying to tell me I am currently standing on the stage of my life without a Dreamcoat. "A something of something, a flash of light, that golden coat flew out of sight. The world has turned to darkness. I am all alone." That might be a little melodramatic; I'm pretty sure I'm not in a full-fledged depression, but somehow there is a relationship to this song and the way my emotional life now stands.
My husband is recuperating well. His surgeon says he is ahead of schedule in his healing. Though walking laboriously because of his 22 years with Parkinson's, and unable to be on his own, he is once again able to walk with a walker much of the time, after having been confined full time to a wheelchair for two months before the hip replacement. We have loving and helpful children, caring friends and, when needed, professional help. We live in an apartment with beautiful views. There is a lot for which to be grateful. I know this. But life has gotten narrower and more confining. My husband is frustrated and sometimes angry that he is not more independent; I am more impatient.
In writing this, I realize I am currently without a dream. This is a painful realization. The illusion of control I had in regard to my husband's Parkinson's disease has disappeared. And, worst of all, the sense of mutual purpose and harmony of interests we enjoyed together during our Florida retirement seems, in larger part than I wish, to have slipped away as well. I hope this is temporary, but how can I know? Our sense of hope and optimism is harder to come by some days; that silver lining is harder to find.
While I'm not ready to give up, the realities are clear. We are in a new phase of life, and new challenges await us: how to accept and cope with the growing demands of a progressive illness with all its attendant emotional complexity and confusion; how to find the necessary balance between giving care and providing safety while continuing to respect my husband's obvious need for autonomy; how to find interests we can still enjoy together despite new limitations and changing needs on both our parts, and, finally, how to discover and manage an independent life for myself away from illness and responsibility without feeling guilty that in doing so I am abandoning my husband and leaving him behind.
"The world and I we are still waiting. Anticipating. Any dream will do. Bring back that colored coat, that amazing colored coat. Bring back that colored coat. That amazing colored coat."

Reference Date: 22-January-2015
Planting 2015A season crops has been completed and production is forecast at near-average levels
Food security conditions seasonally improve as newly-harvested crops are available for local consumption
Harvesting of the 2015A season cereals and beans is well underway and seasonal output, which represents about 35 percent of the total annual crop production, is forecast at near-average levels. With an early start at the end of August, the short rainy season (September-January) has been characterized by above-average cumulative amounts in most provinces, with moderate dry spells as well as localized floods in October and November. Rains started to withdraw earlier than usual by mid-December in central provinces of Gitega, Muramvya and Mwaro as well as in the Dépressions de l'Est livelihood zone, bordering the United Republic of Tanzania, with negative effects especially on pasture conditions (see map on the right).
The food security conditions of poorer households started to improve at the beginning of December as early planted 2015A season crops became available for green consumption. Better labour opportunities and income linked to ongoing harvesting operations have also improved household access to food in most areas.
Although at above-average levels, prices of main staple food have been stable in recent months as a consequence of abundant imports from Uganda and the United Republic of Tanzania which prevented prices to typically increase when the lean reaches its peak and households' dependence on markets is very high. Generally, food prices are expected to decline seasonably in January/February as the bulk of 2015A season crops will be commercialized.
As of July 2014, Burundi was hosting 47 800 refugees, mostly from the Democratic Republic of Congo, 9 000 asylum seekers and 79 000 IDPs, most of them relying on humanitarian assistance to cover their food needs.

Religion takes you from darkness into light, and David Fincher's deeply religious "Fight Club" grows darker and darker still. Here, piety is anarchy; anarchy is destruction; self-destruction is ecstasy. It plays whimsical department store music while its broken shark teeth chew at you. Its sound, consistent plot leads straight to an abrasive, perhaps annoying schizophrenia. It is the Bodhisattva, Satyagraha, and the Masnavi mashed up and played backwards with the wrong device. This movie is the anti-movie, and it enjoys every moment of it.

Couples nab Minnesota gay marriage licenses
By Patrick Condon
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — When Harvey Zuckman and Phil Oxman first met at a Minneapolis bar in 1975, they never imagined that they would one day be among the first Minnesota gay couples to apply for a marriage license.
"We never really thought this would happen in our lifetime. We just didn't," Zuckman, a 62-year-old computer store owner, said Thursday.

The Whole Enchilada: A Novel of Suspense
HarperCollins, Aug 27, 2013 - Fiction - 384 pages
Caterer and sleuth extraordinaire Goldy Schulz jumps from the frying pan into the fire as she tries to solve a puzzling murder that is much too close to home, in this latest entry in the New York Times bestselling series from "today's foremost practitioner of the culinary whodunit" (Entertainment Weekly)
The Whole Enchilada
Goldy Schulz knows her food is to die for, but she never expects one of her best friends to actually keel over when she's leaving a birthday party Goldy has catered. At first, everyone assumes that all the fun and excitement of the party, not to mention the rich fare, did her in.
But what looks like a coronary turns out to be a generous serving of cold-blooded murder. And the clever culprit is just getting cooking.
When a colleague—a woman who resembles Goldy—is stabbed, and Goldy is attacked outside her house, it becomes clear that the popular caterer is the main course on a killer menu. With time running out, Goldy must roll up her sleeves, sharpen her knives, and make a meal out of a devious murderer, before that killer can serve her up cold.

Opinions on painting this piece
Hello. I have a 1908 home with stained wood trim and lots of stained pieces. In the dining room all of the pieces are stained. I am looking for a small piece to go in there for additional storage, but I intend to paint the piece to help lighten up the room.
I found this CL piece and would like opinions about what you think about me painting it. I don't want to ruin a worhty antique, but will choose something that is already damaged. I realize that some people would never paint any antique piece and I would agree most of the time. So here goes...
Here is a link that might be useful: Potential piece to paint
very nice piece, I'm not an antique expert, but just from a purely aesthetic point of view, I would not paint it. It has such unique details, that I think would be lost with paint.
Maybe some of your other pieces could be painted instead of this one.
great find. I'll be curious to see what antique value it might have (via the experts here)
If I found that piece on my CL, I'd buy it in a heartbeat!!
Linda, the link is working for me. Try again please. You have to scroll down.
ringa, my other pieces are beautiful pieces that I would never paint. I wouldn't paint this one either if it is significant. I am trying to find a piece with good lines, but that isn't really worth anything. I don't intend to paint it all one color either. I would do something decorative to bring out the details.
Thanks for the input.

Despite good aspirations among many people in Pakistan, the people who ended up in positions of power almost always worked for the interests of their own class (rampant upper level corruption), infighting and killing to retain power, and foolish and recalicitrant stands against […] [Read More]
A Story Seldom Told
"All Jewish children will sleep with your children, all will eat the same food, all will live as one family." These words were spoken by Mehdi Frasheri, the Albanian prime minister, as the Nazi extermination of Jews began during the Second World War. Even before he spoke those words, Albania's King Zog had directed that […] [Read More]

"Foliage Central"
I love that this part of Northwest Connecticut is referred to as "foliage central" and was also named a top rated destination for all leaf peepers – thank you Yankee Magazine! The towns of Kent and Litchfield were named specifically, and Interlaken is located very close to these quaint New England villages – just choose Route 7 South or Route 63 South and you are there! Thanks to Mother Nature, the fall foliage season has started early and if we continue to get warm sunny days the colors will linger into November. If you ask me, the autumn season could never last long enough! Anyway, now is the perfect time to plan for that hike you've been wanting to do all summer but never did, and your reward will not only be the fantastic views but you will be able to admire the amazing vibrant autumn colors! Why not see as much as Connecticut as you possible can? Bear Mountain is the tallest peak in CT, and can be hiked to via the Undermountain Trail for 2 miles, then connecting with the Appalachian Trail for about another mile to the top of Bear Mountain. It's been deemed as a strenuous hike by the www.berkshirehiking.com website, but well worth the adventure. If hiking is just not your thing, then maybe just sitting on a cedar swing at the Interlaken's lakefront is more your style! The trees are now touched with color – the next few weeks should be amazing!Admire the beauty - no energy required!
Stay connected anywhere!
I would love to work like this all day, wouldn't you?

My weekend wedding walk
If you've been reading my blog all week, then you know I will find any and every reason to blog about something that requires me to go outside on a beautiful fall day! We are having another good weather day at Interlaken, so it's the perfect time for me to grab the camera and head out! It's also a perfect day for a wedding, and of course Interlaken has one happening right now. As most couples do, they decided to get married at our lakefront, so I decided to take a walk as a "wedding attendee" and take some pictures on my way. If you decide to get married at Interlaken, this is what your Guests will see as they stroll down to the beautiful Lake Wononscopomuc and the ceremony site!
Getting closer....
Almost there....
Here I am at the lakeside ceremony site!
Who is that I see in the distance as I walk back up to the property?
The groomsmen of course!
International Housekeepers Week
We have been celebrating it all week long with special meals and surprises for all of the Interlaken's international staff members and guest room attendants. It is the perfect time to show appreciation to those hard working staff members that keep Interlaken clean and comfortable! A fun way to celebrate anything is through food, and we've been doing just that! The Internationals put together some of their favorite recipes of dishes from home to share with everyone, and have worked with the Chefs to present a fabulous lunch each day. Chinese, Romanian, Bulgarian, Indian and Chilean cusines have been shared this week, and we've loved learning about the dishes, and better yet, tasting them! Thank you, Helen, for the constant coordination, set-up and clean-up of each event – and for the intense word puzzle the other day! As the last day of Housekeeping Week wraps up, we will continue to appreciate and celebrate the wonderful and diverse staff that Interlaken is fortunate to have!
