Announcing this Year's Winner of the Robert Phillips Regional Diversity Award
Victoria Cross
Multnomah County Health Department
Since she started working in Health Department in 2000, Victoria Cross has worked to link immigrant and refugee employees, as well as immigrant and refugee communities, to Multnomah County programs that serve them.
Born in Russia, Victoria graduated from the Moscow State University of Culture with a B.A. in Library & Information Science, and a minor in Nursing. She was chief librarian for the central library in a large Russian city. She also worked in a joint training center involving the Former Soviet Union, the United States, and various countries of Europe, Asia and Africa.
Victoria moved to Oregon in 1998 with her husband, Richard, and her daughter, Olga. She quickly realized that reading American literature and watching American movies and television shows can only educate immigrants so much about what is in store for them in the Amercian workforce. Refugees and other displaced people often experience hardships adjusting to their new culture, particularly at work. They face language gaps, along with different rules and customs.
In 2011 Victoria founded, and remains the Chair of, the Multnomah County Employee Resource Group for Immigrants and Refugees. The group's purpose is to identify challenges and opportunities faced by this diverse cohort; advance their knowledge about the American workforce and its culture; assist the group's members in achieving their full potential through career development, celebrations, education, and mutual support; provide Multnomah County with a critical linkage to the diverse communities from which these employees come; and help prepare Multnomah County to meet future needs of this diverse workforce.
In June 2014, her Employee Resource Group won an Achievement Award from National Association of Counties for creating safe space for immigrants and refugees employed by Multnomah County, enabling them to share experiences, support and suggest opportunities to improve their experience in the workforce. The group is the first of its kind in the United States and it serves as a teaching tool for other counties to increase awareness about immigrant and refugee experiences in a work environment, as well as out in the community.
Reason for the Award
This award is named in recognition of Robert Phillips, Multnomah County Affirmative Action Officer, who has worked in the area of equal employment opportunity for over 25 years and has a long history of involvement in the civil rights field. As Director of Multnomah County's Affirmative Action Office, Robert was responsible for the development of policy initiatives, plans and programs that promoted respectful work environments for diverse employees and assisted the organization in meeting its equal employment opportunity and affirmative action obligations. Additionally, Robert served as a commissioner for the Port of Portland's Civil Service Commission where he has served for 10 years. His community service includes appointments to the Nike Corporation's Minority Affairs Advisory Board; Gubernatorial appointments to the State Commission on Black Affairs and the State Board to Register Clinical Social Workers; and service on the Oregon State Bar Affirmative Action Committee.
In 1996, the diversity program he managed for the City of Portland was recognized as a best practice model by People Management Resources, a division of Watson Wyatt Worldwide. Robert was also responsible for initiating the first national conference on performance measures for diversity programs, sponsored by the National Quality Institute. In addition, Robert was a recipient of the 2009 Arthur Flemming Award by the Multnomah County Managers of Color, the Oregon assembly for Black Affairs Political Development Award, the Northwest Conference of Black Elected Officials Leadership Award and the 2009 Northwest Public Employees Diversity Conference Robert Phillips Regional Diversity Award. He was the first public sector African American graduate of the Center of Creative Leadership's African American Leadership Program.
The Multnomah County Board of Commissioners proclaimed February 28, 2012, as Robert Phillips Appreciation Day in Multnomah County, Oregon. In retirement from Multnomah County, Robert has an encore career during which he will serve as a member of the NW Renal Patients Advisory Board; the Oregon Assembly for Black Affairs Political Convention Planning Committee and the Port of Portland Fire Department Civil Service Board.
This award was created to honor his many contributions in the field of equity for all.

Executive Session: Succession Planning for the Diverse Workforce of the Future
Executive Session Description
Public sector agencies face a common and daunting challenge—the wave of Baby Boomer retirements—potentially leading to loss of institutional knowledge and unfilled critical positions. But this challenge also creates an unprecedented opportunity to re-imagine the diverse workforce that public sector agencies need to serve our multicultural communities. This reimaging includes pro-active strategies and noticeable shifts in organizational culture to realize these ideals. It's no secret to those of us living in the northwest there are multiple challenges to hiring and retaining a racially diverse workforce. How then do we identify and surmount these challenges?
In this three-hour Executive Session with Caprice Hollins, Psy.D. of Cultures Connecting, participants will identify their succession planning needs and challenges and exchange promising strategies to create the diverse workforce of the future. Three major areas will be explored: organizational readiness for a more diverse workforce; recruiting and interviewing diverse candidates; creating an inclusive and welcoming work environment.

Learning from Each Other: a Discussion about Inclusion at Work
Workshop Description
Popular education is an educational approach that collectively and critically examines everyday experiences and raises consciousness for organizing and movement building, acting on injustices with a political vision in the interests of the most marginalized.~ Paulo Freire
Popular education comes from Latin America where popular means "of the people." Popular education is based on the idea that, no matter our occupation and level of formal education, we all know a great deal as a result of our life experience. It is a proven approach to engage individuals with the understanding that regardless of what our differences are, we can embrace and respect each other's knowledge, background, culture and skills. Because we are a result of our own unique experiences, we can learn from one another. Our workshop will demonstrate the benefits of Popular Education in which participants engage with each other and the facilitators to reflect on the issues of inclusion in their workplace.

Mentorship for Personal Mastery, Cultural Agility, and Organizational Moxie
Workshop Description
This workshop introduces a new framework for thinking about and practicing mentorship. It is a framework that has particular resonance for people of color because it emphasizes three areas of development that emerging minority-culture leaders need in particular: personal mastery, cultural agility and organizational moxie.
The workshop will empower participants to understand and begin to experience and reflect on this framework through two main phases of activity. The first phase will consist of an interactive presentation, with visual support, on the content of the framework itself. This will shed light on distinctive focus areas, functions, structure and methods of mentorship and how these elements relate specifically to the needs of emerging leaders within minority-culture communities.
The second main phase of the workshop will center on activities in which the participants step into the framework and apply it to their own career experience and their current workplace. The activities in phase two will anchor to the framework introduced during phase one and will highlight both the challenges and potential of mentorship in culturally diverse settings.

Codeswitching and the Language of Social Media: How to Develop Culturally Competent Communications
Workshop Description
In the current age of instant communication, it's all-too easy to treat our communication tools the same: email, social media, websites, blogs, press releases…we often forget that each of these have their own best practices to get a message across.
The same idea applies when developing culturally competent communications, except that we need to be even more sensitive to how our communication tools can help or hurt our efforts in equity. From font types to choosing images and phrasing, this panel will teach techniques to become better communicators, especially with social media.
Several case studies of public institutions – colleges, city planning committees, law enforcement, etc. – will be included to show the strengths and weaknesses of our online and offline tools. You'll learn how to create more effective and more equitable messages to better serve your constituents

Poway's Klahn part of elite club
Asked what he likes about the game, Klahn said, "Just being out there on your own, having it all on you. I guess just enjoying the battle."
At 6 feet, 160 pounds, Klahn is equipped with an all-court game. He reached the semifinals of the NCAAs in doubles last month, evidence of his serve-and-volley skills.
"He actually has a pro-style game," said teammate Jamie Hutter. "He's got a great lefty serve. He has a big lefty forehand, which he can basically hit for a winner from any spot on the court, which makes it really tough to play him. You think you have him stretched out, you think you're in position to control the point and he pulls out a crazy forehand winner.
"He's got a good serve, a good volley. But he can also stay back and grind you down. He's just tough all-around."
Klahn beat Louisville's Austen Childs, a New Zealander, 6-1, 6-2 in the finals. Asked if Klahn has a weakness, Childs said, "If there was, I wasn't able to hit to it. I tried a few different things, but that forehand was just killing me."
Klahn said it has been his goal to play professionally almost since the start.
"I like to dream big and set my goals high," he said.
He has played in a combined seven Futures and Challenger tournaments (essentially tennis' minor leagues), compiling a 10-9 record. (To retain his amateur status he has accepted no prize money.) Klahn is currently ranked 678th in the world.
He anticipates playing in at least four pro tournaments the next couple of months. As the NCAA champion, he's expected to receive a wild-card spot in the U.S. Open main draw or qualifying tournament.
He will eventually turn pro but said he's leaning toward returning to Stanford for his junior year.
He's in a fraternity, as are five teammates, plus a number of baseball players.
"I love the college life. I love being at Stanford," he said. "College is the best four years of your life."
Another factor contributing to Klahn likely returning to The Farm: Stanford will host the NCAA team and individual tournaments next year.
"To walk out of our locker room and see the stands packed," Klahn said, "that would be very special, something tough to pass up."
College has been good to Klahn, on and off the court. A fraternity brother and fellow economics major, Mike Lazarus said Klahn was shy when he first stepped on campus. Not anymore.
"We took a lot of econ classes (together)," Lazarus said. "He used to defer to me. But by the end of the quarter, he was taking the lead, correcting my mistakes.
"He is one of the most well-liked guys in the (fraternity) house. He has every right to be one of the cockiest, but he never acts cocky. He's humble.
"He is what you think a Stanford athlete should be. He's talented, passionate, dedicated. There's no one Stanford could pitch to represent the school better than Bradley Klahn."

Though the jokes and jabs seemed more playful than spiteful, there's an obvious sense of competition that's even more prominent among fans.
"What's Microsoft going to do now," one attendee asked his companion.
"They'll probably steal this idea, too," his friend responded. "It's a company that's never had an original idea in their lives."
But while enthusiasts and Apple employees take potshots at Microsoft, their sense of the Apple brand as more of a family crest than a brand is palpable.
"I've had a Macintosh now for a total of 35 days, and I'm really excited to be part of the Mac community," said Elizabeth Frost, production director for Morning Pictures Group.
It looks like Apple gave the world a little sip of the company Kool-Aid. Now we'll have to wait and see if it can turn its unparalleled success in the MP3 market and evident emotional connection to its work into a successful cell phone business.

I've been trying to think of the parts for my new build for quite some time and I feel like I'm just going in circles and reading a new opinion after I make a decision... So I've come here to ask for some help! I have $2500-3000 to spend on my new build (Case, mobo, cpu, cooler, gpu, psu, ram, memory, and anything else) but I don't need a keyboard or monitor or any of those. I would prefer the case to not be water cooled since I don't want to deal with the maintenance but I don't mind an AIO cooler. Also looks are important, I want this machine to look as awesome as it is on the inside and as far as cases go I prefer the more high quality conservative looking ones (IE: Corsair 800D) than the more crazy looking ones (HAF X). This will be used for gaming only and performance is my biggest priority! Also I'm not in a huge rush to build this in your opinion would it be worth it to wait until the GTX 700 series comes out? Thanks for the help!!
Need some build help

Originally written on Patriots Life | Last updated 11/20/14
Vereen's 33 yard touchdown catch vs. the Texans When we look back at New England's 41-28 win over Houston last Sunday, it will probably become known as "The Shane Vereen Game." Nobody could have predicted the 3rd string running back with just 5 career touchdowns would become the first NFL player in 19 years to record 2 receiving TD's and a rushing TD in a single playoff game (and just the 3rd ever; Roger Craig in 1984 and Ricky Watters in 1994). But based on the Patriots playoff history in the Belichick/Brady era, it's really not all that surprising. New England has had a knack for busting out unusual new offensive weapons in their opening round playoff games over the years. In last season's 45-10 divisional round victory over Denver, Rob Gronkowksi's 10 catches for 145 yards and 3 TD's predictably led the way. But the team's leading rusher was the other tight end; Aaron Hernandez had 61 yards on 5 carries. Three years ago the Patriots lost at home to Baltimore in their firs...

For Smart Gilas II coach Chot Reyes, their participation in the William Jones Cup in Taiwan this weekend marks the official start of the team's honest-to-goodness build-up for the all-important FIBA-Asia Championship next year.
The Nationals will face Jordan right in the opening day on Saturday but Reyes does not care whether last year's FIBA-Asia runner-up will be reinforced again by naturalized Rasheim Wright or not.
"Basically I'm not worried about it. I will be there to learn more about my players," said Reyes, who is tasked - perhaps ordered - to bring the country back to the FIBA World Championship slated in Spain two years from now.
The top three finishers in the FIBA-Asia Championship will be deliciously rewarded with berths to the World Championship. The country, on the other hand, is one of the passionate bidders to host the FIBA-Asia event to give the Nationals the much-needed support.
"The Jones Cup is one of the competition windows for most Asian countries but the real scouting perhaps begins early next year," the former Talk 'N Text drillmaster said. "I will find out the strengths and weaknesses of my players during the tournament."
Reyes said they're now in the final stretch of their preparation for the Jones Cup and he's glad with the way the members of the pool are running their offensive plays as well their defensive transitions when they play against a taller and bulkier squad.
"I saw their energy and enthusiasm to learn from my system and to play not for their pride but for the country. That's very important," said Reyes.
Since the current members of Gilas II are the so-called cream of the crop - if we go by the standard of PBA - Reyes has been telling his boys to "sacrifice".
"They have to sacrifice a lot, they have to sacrifice their playing time, their shots...almost everything. That's the way to become successful," said Reyes.
While Iran has dominated the event the last three years, the presence of the United States will make the title race more interesting.
The last time the country won the event was in 1998 when Tim Cone steered the all-PBA squad led by former MVP winners like Allan Caidic, Alvin Patrimonio, Kenneth Duremdes, Johnny Abarrientos and Vergel Meneses.

Mad Miriam
More News from Blanche Gallardo
Hurray for lawyer Vitaliano Aguirre III! His was one dissenting opinion that deserved to be heard. And applauded, if I might add.
I know that the court and judges must be respected. But perhaps not at all costs. We all know that respect is also earned. Do you honestly believe Mad Miriam's (Defensor Santiago) performances during the impeachment trial earned the respect of her peers, let alone her countrymen? I think not, and I am quite sure a lot of people share my views, but lack the courage of a Vitaliano Aguirre III to say so. So hurray for him! He deserves our support, not condemnation.
Why should those senator judges who closed ranks feel alluded to, or disrespected? Is Santiago the Senate or the Impeachment Court, in the same way that Chief Justice Renato Corona seems to think he is the Supreme Court? Are they all as abusive as she is, or cut of the same cloth? Despite his change of color Sen. Joker Arroyo maintains a quiet, dignified demeanor! People may disagree with him, but I doubt anyone will dare to disrespect him!
No doubt many of the same "senator judges" must sometimes feel like covering their ears, too, during one of Miriam's increasingly savage and outrageous ranting. I know I shift TV channels, just to get past that aggravating display of intemperate histrionics and the parroting of her superior knowledge of the law.
Sure, she has made some good points, but they were/are obscured by her obnoxious delivery and behavior, not to mention her blind service to procedural matters over and above the content and spirit of the law. Somebody remarked that instead of being cited for contempt and paying the fine, Aguirre should have been made to sit there and listen to her for another hour! Poetic justice?
I totally agree with Aguirre. Respect is a two-way street, and Santiago's failure to accord respect—one would think, not just to the prosecutors, but to the whole court—gave courage to the private lawyer to manifest his displeasure in less astringent, but most articulate way.
The Brits have a Maid Miriam. We have Mad Miriam with a penchant for murdering the English tongue. How unfortunate. Heaven help the World Court when she gets there!

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Oil prices were choppy Thursday ahead of President Barack Obama's speech before Congress this evening.
In the afternoon, both the Brent and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil contracts followed the equity markets lower, with Brent for November delivery slumping 80 cents to $114.01 a barrel and the WTI for October delivery down 9 cents at $89.25.
Both products were coming off several straight days of spikes.
Many traders have low expectations for the economic package that President Obama is expected to announce in his speech before Congress at 7 p.m. ET, lamenting that the event will likely be more focused on politics than anything else."The president is speaking tonight about the jobs package and it's having a negative effect ," said Chicago-based PFGBest trader Dan Flynn. "I'm expecting negative vibes," he remarked. "The negative reaction in the global stock market should weigh heavily on crude." Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke's speech in Minnesota Thursday did little to ease the market's cautious stance as he held back on providing a specific action points for stimulating the economy. He only repeated that the central bank is committed to reviving the economy and had tools for reaching this goal. Providing some support to oil today was the Department of Energy's bullish inventory report of a 4 million barrel draw in crude-oil inventories for the week ended Sept. 2 and the heavy Atlantic hurricane season seeing storm activity brewing in the Gulf. October natural gas futures settled up 4 cents at $3.980 per million British thermal units in a slow, quiet trading day for this market, as traders cautiously awaited Obama's speech ahead of the weekend and digested a slight build in natural gas inventories. The build of 64 billion cubic feet was just above the midpoint of market expectations and a tick above the 63 bcf five-year average," said Citi Futures Perspective energy analyst Tim Evans. "This was not a major miss and may reflect a modestly larger-than-expected impact from Hurricane Irene on East Coast consumption for last week, rather than a bearish shift in the background supply-demand balance," he explained. Energy stocks were trading mixed. EOG Resources (EOG - Get Report) was falling 1.4% to $89.38; Gulfport Energy (GPOR - Get Report) was up 0.1% to $28.10; Newfield Exploration (NFX - Get Report) was flat at $49.87; Hess (HES - Get Report) was rising 0.4% to $59.50; Cheniere Energy (LNG - Get Report) was tumbling 3% to $7.39; Chevron (CVX - Get Report) was lower by 0.7% to $98.57; and Suncor Energy (SU - Get Report) was down 0.5% to $30.70. -- Written by Andrea Tse in New York.

Qualcomm reportedly in talks to buy Atheros
"That's what I would call icing on the cake," he said. "It's not the cake. The cake is the mobile phones and the tablets."
A deal may not occur. Competitors might seek to bid for Atheros now that it's considering a takeover, according to analysts. An Atheros spokeswoman did not respond to requests for comment.
Atheros reported revenue of $700 million through the first nine months of 2010, up from $356.7 million for the same period the prior year. Net income was $77 million, up from $30.7 million a year earlier. Qualcomm's shares ended Tuesday up 79 cents at $50.97 on the Nasdaq.

By P.H. Burbridge (A voice in the crowd) Spotlight on CENTER stage! We're all waiting. How much longer will we have to wait to hear "Pretty Boy" Floyd Mayweather Jr making those outlandish statements again? Acting insulted that his opponent would even dare challenge him! You have to admit, it's a pretty good act and we've paid handsomely over the last couple of years to see it. When he's part of a ticket versus another big name his "act" pushes the PPV buy rate through the roof and helps turn a fight into an "event!" Floyd Mayweather Jr offers us something that Muhammad Ali proved we need in this sport and that's CONFLICT! We need a good guy and we need a bad guy..
Floyd enjoys playing the bad guy, the guy you love to hate, the braggart and we lay down our money in the hope that someone will "alter" his outlook on life. We're all convinced that one day it will happen but so far Floyd has been able to charge a pretty good rate while back handing us back to reality. He's not only good, he's GREAT. Fight fans want him to come back for a variety of reasons. Some want to see Floyd prove his greatness (again!) and others want to see him fail in the most public way possible to validate their opinion that he is "vastly overrated"!
However, regardless of your reasoning the one thing that shouldn't be questioned is that Floyd Mayweather Jr has truly proven to be one of the most talented fighters of the last 20 years. He's a virtuoso who has dominated many a world class fighter and champion and he's done it in 5 different weight divisions. With those types of credentials it's pretty hard to ignore the "Pretty Boy". He's legit and NO amount of criticism will ever diminish what he's already done in the ring.
So, when Floyd retired seemingly in his prime we didn't take it seriously. (And some of us still don't!) We assumed it was another in a long line of publicity stunts he's forced us to endure. From the WWE to the Grand Rapids, Michigan "retirement" celebration he threw for himself that I'm sure that wasn't cheap. We know he has tons of money because he keeps telling us about it and insists that he'll be a "billionaire" by the end of the year. I'm not sure how to take any of that but we do know that the Hatton payday along with the gargantuan payday he took for the De La Hoya fight should remove any and all money concerns related to cash flow.
I guess we're left to assume that he doesn't need the money and that he's simply burned out on it all. That's understandable. After all boxing has consumed most of his life since childhood and you can't blame him for wanting to move on. How many times do you need to hear somebody calling you out on national television and questioning your accomplishments every time you look up? I'm sure that get's tiring. Everybody wants a piece. It's the one thing that Mayweather and De La Hoya now have in common. Mayweather got there on De La Hoya's back and now everybody wants the same ride from him.
My feeling is that Floyd will come back one day just to feel the spotlight one more time. The question is when and against whom? The current welterweight landscape is not a good fit for Floyd because you have absolute monsters like Paul Williams and Antonio Margarito sitting on the top and either one of those guys would give Floyd SERIOUS problems. Especially, Williams! Too good, too tall, too fast and too hungry! If ever there was a bad stylistic match up for Floyd, Paul Williams is it. Stay away from that guy. Antonio Margarito is a much more realistic fight because he is incredibly predictable and slower but the problem is the same problem we saw Miguel Cotto forced to confront and that is the CONSTANT pressure. Floyd might end up in another fight like the first Castillo fight but this time with a bigger stronger foe.
Margarito will be a killer for as long as his motor will allow him to be. Once he looses that stamina edge he looses everything. Aside from his pressure strength there is nothing special about his arsenal or boxing ability. Floyd may be able to out maneuver him because he does have the tools to do it the question is will he chance it? After the job Margarito did on Cotto my guess is NO. 39-0 sounds much better then 39-1. Oscar De La Hoya is truly Floyd's best option if he does return BUT time is running out. It's a big fight and it's not uncharted territory.
He knows what to expect and he would most likely win it in the same fashion as the first one. I'm sure a year and half has done more negative then positive for Oscar's stamina problem so, he should take that fight and rake in another huge payday. Then call it a career. If he continues to insist on being "retired" then he'll regret not making that money regardless of how deep his pockets currently are. Because after Oscar there are no more superstars and Floyd needs to realize that he'll be up against younger, stronger and hungrier competition for less money. His EGO will force him back into the spotlight so get it over with now and not later. You're not getting any younger either and you've heard the story a million times about a returning "aging' champion.
Come on, Floyd you're too smart for that!

Julian Malone - Tokyo
Artist: Julian Malone
Producer: Julian Malone
Album: Diff.Rnt
Avg Rating: 4.5 ( 4 votes )
Julian Malone may not Give a Eff about much in this world, but the 2008ighties emcee would be lying if he said he wasn't enjoying the trappings of success. Tokyo, the latest single off Malone's forthcoming street album, finds the Chi-town spitter tracing his growth from a callow youngster with dreams of hip-hop stardom to a budding contender for greatness—not to mention a certified ladies' man. As usual, the artist handles production as well as mic duties, crafting a hazy, sampled beat to back his self-assured bars. On the bridge, he flips the famous title line from Big Poppa. The official mixtape prelude to Julian Malone's forthcoming debut, Diff.Rnt is slated to drop digitally this July.

|The influence of paternal autonomy-support upon ethnic culture identification among second-generation immigrants
|Abad, Neetu Suresh
|University of Missouri--Columbia
|Born and raised in the U.S., children of immigrants often face difficult choices between endorsing their family's country of origin (natal culture) and mainstream U.S. society (host culture). Although second generation immigrants desire to fit into the host society, their parents often demand that they adhere to norms and traditions of the natal culture. Previous studies have shown controlling or non-autonomous parenting to be associated with negative outcomes, so this study sought to demonstrate the role of maternal and paternal autonomy-support in promoting positive and intrinsic natal acculturation among second-generation immigrants. Two studies were conducted to test this hypothesis. In Study 1, college-aged second-generation immigrants were asked to report perceived maternal and paternal autonomy-support, as well as how much they endorse their natal and U.S. cultures. Results demonstrated that paternal, but not maternal, autonomy-support predicted greater immersion into the natal culture and positive well-being. Study 2 replicated the previously mentioned effects and extended them by considering additional WB, acculturation, and autonomy-support measures. Possible explanations for the significance of paternal over maternal autonomy-support in our data are discussed.

IVA — The Mid-Carolina High School Lady Rebels headed to Crescent on Saturday afternoon in playoff action but sloppy defense and an early six-run deficit proved too much for Gaye Green's young club to overcome in a 13-1 defeat.
Tori Caldwell led MCHS with two hits and an RBI but few other Rebels could muster much against the Tigers.
The Rebels had four hits for the game, but they had five errors. Cassi Ruff, the hero Thursday night, had two errors. Caldwell, Jayden Peel and Madyson Murphy had trouble with the leather as they each had one error.
The Tigers pulled ahead 6-0 in the first inning.
Charlsy Traylor ran into trouble and gave up three runs early. MCHS went to junior Ashlyn Courtney but she fared little better as she gave up 10 runs on eight hits.
They added four in the third inning and tacked on three more in the fourth.
The Crescent pitcher pounded the zone with the big lead and MCHS mounted few rallies against her.
Gracen Hester and Kelly Cantrell managed hits but that was all the Rebels could do in the loss.
MCHS plays at 6 p.m. Monday in a home elimination game against the Saluda Tigers.

34 year old woman | Lake Worth, FL, USA | Seeking men 25-35 within 50 miles of Hypoluxo, FL
Does meeting people online really work? I guess I'll soon find out...
I'm just looking for someone to share common interests with. I'm easy going and a bit sarcastic. I don't go out much and enjoy quiet evenings at home, but I do like to go out and have some fun once in awhile. As you can tell from my pictures I have a few kids. I'm not looking for a father for them, they already have one, but you will have to accept them. I was born in New York, and was just informed my accent is more prominent when I have been drinking. I love all kinds of music. I finally found a job that I love and am on my way to making it my career!(very excited about that) I'm a dog person and have two. I don't like cats, but I do have one. I've decided to keep her around, she makes sure all the yucky lizards are kept far away from me. Plus I'm pretty convinced she's half lion, which is pretty cool. My favorite sports are baseball, hockey and basketball.(in that order). It's not that I don't like football, it's just that I don't get it. I don't have any brothers, and my father didn't really watch anything but baseball and boxing. Oh yeah I forgot I like boxing too. I can't swim, I didn't grow up with a pool and very rarely went to the beach. I prefer going to the pool, I enjoy going to the beach to sit and read a good book. Or eating a great breakfast, if you haven't checked out Dune Deck you're missing out! Don't get to watch TVmuch. I usually don't have control of the remote. If you have any questions about me feel free to ask. I'm an open and honest person.
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Performing arts , Religion/Spiritual , Wine tasting
I exercise 1-2 times per week.
I have Cats, Dogs
I have 2 dogs and one cat.
Chillies. 2 for 1 all day everyday(recently learned they no longer do that, but they have this thing called happy hour, but not on Saturdays) Dune Deck Cafe. There's nothing better than having breakfast on the beach.
Love movies that make me cry. I'm a huge sap. I love music!,
I mostly like spending time with my family. I do enjoy going downtown once in awhile, and enjoying the nightlife.
I love to read, and will read a good book over and over. My favorite book would have to be Pride and Prejudice. I enjoy romance, mystery, dramas and biographies. I have an e-reader and use it ofter, but there's nothing like cracking open a new book.
