Another proposed bill requiring employers to offer paid sick leave was reintroduced in Congress earlier this year and supporters expect a battle ahead.
Employers want the right to continue to use incentivize wellness.
Stress exacerbates the leading health problems employees face, so employers should do more to combat it.
Upcoming compliance audits mean HR departments must prepare to prove their employees' health care information is safe.
A key reason for this lack of preparedness is difficulty in tracking hours to determine if an employee is eligible for health care coverage.
In every state during the past decade, the cost of employer-provided health care outpaced incomes.
A growing number of employers are embracing wearable devices and offering incentives, like health insurance discounts, when workers sign up for them.

Visit the Cathedral of San Stefano
The cathedral stands at the head of the Piazza del Duomo. At the right edge of the facade is an outside pulpit which is now only used in celebrations of the Holy Girdle. The larger part of the sculptures were done by Donatello and the rest by Michelozzo. The small tympanum above the main door is by Andrea della Robbia. The fountain standing before the west facade of the church is fondly called the Pescatorella.

Go Around to the Main Side of the Palazzo
The main side of the Palazzo Pretorio has a fine 16C staircase which stands near a famous fountain of the city. This is called the Bacchino and is from the same time. It is by Ferdinando Tacco and it is a now a copy. The original one is now in the doorway to the Palazzo.

Santa Maria delle Carceri
On Piazza Santa Maria delle Carceri, close to the Castle
Santa Maria delle Carceri is Prato's basilica church, built on the Greek cross plan. According to the legend, the site used to be a public jail until a child saw an animated Madonna and Child image on its wall back in late 15th century, and hence it was decided to build the church on the spot.
Inside, look for authentic 15th century stained glass windows, majolica coat of arms medallions by Andrea della Robbia, and Evangelists medallions, also by him. High altar is designed by Sangallo in white marble, echoing the style of that in the Pantheon in Rome.

Castello dell'Imperatore
Castello dell'Imperatore is in Piazza Santa Maria delle Carceri
There is not much inside, the but the outside was impressive enough for me - a nice example of the 13th century military-style architecture which, unlike many European castles, was not redecorated into a luxurious palace.
It was built by the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II, hence the name

Piazza Duomo Square
It is a nice place to walk. Even though we were there late at night, there were some young people who were very friendly and explained a little bit about the buldings around. I really liked this place, it was so relaxing, peaceful and beautiful. I fell in love with Prato.
Prato's Cathedral
A pedestrian was very kind to inform us that this is the main catholic church of Prato dedicated to a martyr called St. Stephen.
It is known that it already existed by the 10th century so, this makes it one of the most ancient churches in town. I wish I had gone inside! :(
Emperor's Castle
This castle was built by the order of the emperor and King of Sicily Frederick II. It is beautifully illuminated at night as you can see in the picture. Doing some research on the internet I found out some parts of the castle were demolished in 1930 and ended up as how it looks today.
I knew it is open to the public, so bad we were in Prato at night! But it was very worthwhile to see it illuminated. :)
Bacchino's Fountain ...
... made by Ferdinando Tacca in the 17 th century. The fountain at the Comune square is actually a replica of the original that is kept at the entrance of the Comune Palace. The original is more elegant. The child on it actually has a name - Bacco.
Castello dell' Imperatore ....
or The Emperor's Castle is the most remarkable building to see in Prato. It was built by the Hohenstaufen Emperors, Emperors of the Holy Roman Empire, in the 13 century.
The structure is based on four main towers in square shape whose vertexes indicate the cardinal points. The decline of the imperial politics in Tuscany prevented the completion of the interior of the castle: in the following periods the space was used according to different needs (barracks or later military prison).
The castle is decoration in two colours, adopted in Romanesque - gothic architecture in Tuscany:: the "alberese" in white or light grey, and the "serpentine" or green from Prato.
Emperor's Castle is open to visitors. The large inner yard host many public events.
Opening time:
October-March 9.00-13.00,

From a microscopic New York to a desert that looks like Mars .... incredible aerial photos show Earth as you've NEVER seen it before
The most vivid imaginations would do well to dream up some of the stunning, and at times perplexing, patterns and colours found when we take a bird's eye view of some of the world's most majestic cities and remote landscapes.
The Swakopmund Saltworks at the edge of the Namib Desert looks more like Mars than anything found on Earth while rice paddies in Madagascar resemble the world of a skilled cake decorator.
Male is magnificent from the air with it's otherwise uninspiring blocks of buildings bursting with the bright colour usually associated with the surround calm ocean waters while the Blue and Golden cities of Rajasthan in India are sights to behold.
New York's Central Park is an oasis for those who frequent the Big Apple, and an awesome site from above where we realise the full extent of its imprint on skyscraper-packed Manhattan.
Iconic sights often shine from any angle, but it's especially the case from above when it comes to the walled Old City in Dubrovnik and Paris at twilight as The Arc de Triomphe becomes the focal point of the skyline...
Betsiboka, Madagascar: These terraced rice fields are the work of the Betsileo people, noted to be savvy farmers - their name means 'The many invincibles'
Namib Desert, Namibia: The surreal pink waters of the Swakopmund Saltworks are a curious sight and a surprisingly brilliant spot for birdwatchers
Rajasthan, India: There's good reason Jodhpur, the second-largest city in Rajasthan, is known as 'Blue City' - here it's captured from Mehrangarh fort's wall
Jaisalmer, India: The colours of Rajasthan take on earthy tones in 'The Golden City', where its buildings are a reflection of the yellow stone on which the town stands
Chicago, USA: The bright lights of Downtown Chicago shine bright shades of orange beneath a moody sky
Bac Son Valley, Vietnam: Only a bird's eye view can do justice to the beauty of this fertile agricultural region north of Hanoi
New York, USA: The iconic 843 acres of Manhattan that is Central Park glows like a green beacon amid the skyscrapers
Male, Maldives: The brightly painted tall buildings of Male go close to matching the ever-present bright turquoise water that surrounds it
Longleat Maze, Wiltshire, England: With one and three quarter miles of paths to get lost in, formed by 16,000 hedged English Yews, this is a sight to behold
Old City Dubrovnik, Croatia: The 'Pearl of the Adriatic' may have lost some of its lustre due to natural and man-inflicted damage, but from above the UNESCO World Heritage-listed walled city remains a remarkable sight
Lisse, Netherlands: The tulip fields on the outskirts of this town in southern Holland are a major attraction and each spring they hold a big Bloemencorso ('flower parade')
Paris, France: Paris by moonlight? Give us twilight, as The Arc de Triomphe illuminates and cars negotiate the Place Charles de Gaulle
Walvis Bay, Namibia: This is where the desert meets the not-so deep blue (at this point anyway) sea
Barcelona, Spain: If we didn't tell would you have guessed? Didn't think so. Barca isn't beaches, bars and Las Rambles, it's a bustling port city too
Dubai, United Arab Emirates: Like some sort of elegant insect the engineering marvels of the Palm Jebel Ali and Palm Jumeirah jut out of the desert landscape
Cairo, Egypt: If you look closely you'll see three squares - the Great Pyramids of Giza - as they're increasingly engulfed by the city

1994 Saturn SC2 Q&A
1994 Saturn SC2 Question: shifting
My car shifts hard in first gear - P J Cooley
Answer 1
Have you checked for any diagnostic trouble codes stored in the transmission module? I would check the fluid level and condition, check for codes and then diagnose any codes stored. If you cannot find a problem, then you may want to have a shop look into these technical service bulletins from Saturn: #99-T-56: Automatic Transaxle Air Checking Procedures #01-T-09: Harsh Shifts, No Shifts, and/or Transaxle Releated DTCs Set Condition: Some customers may comment about harsh transaxle shifting and/or erratic transaxle shifting. One or more transaxle-related diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) may have set. The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) may or may not be illuminated depending on what DTC is set. The malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) may or may not be illuminated depending on what DTC is set. - Bret Bodas
Answer 2
I have a 1994 Saturn SC2 as well and mine did the same thing and about 3-4 months after that it would have good days and bad days on bad days it wouldn't go into any gears. then eventual my clutch went out. Good Luck - starbaby31988
Answer 3
Check your shift cables and the bushing, I changed mine and it shifts smooth now. - Visitor

By Dave McMenamin, NBA.com
Posted Dec 4 2008 5:24PM
I came into last Saturday's Clippers-Heat tilt with some preconceived notions about Miami's No. 2 pick, Michael Beasley.
(Side note: I've been seeing "tilt" used a lot more these days. It makes a game sound like some sort of ride at a theme park -- "Come defy death on Six Flags' new 10,000-foot tall white knuckling, heart racing, adrenaline pumping roller coaster -- The Tilt!" Either that or it could have totally been a '50s dance craze. I can picture Chubby Checker singing, "Come on baby, let's do the tilt, come on ba-bayyyyy let's do the tilt," as he peers down on a crowd of teeny boppers swaying like Tin Man in the Wizard of Oz.)
You see, I look at basketball as my game. I've literally handed my life over to the sport. Any draft pick that ends up making a splash on the hoops scene becomes a part of my daily routine and coming into this season I was wary of having Beasley as a bed fellow.
There was never a question in my mind about his talent. I sat next to Thunder Assistant General Manager Troy Weaver at Madison Square Garden last December to see Beasley and Kansas State take on Notre Dame followed by Derrick Rose and Memphis go against O.J. Mayo and USC. Weave is plugged into the Washington D.C. basketball pipeline and had seen Beasley play for years, but that didn't stop him from marveling at the freshman's 19 points, 13 rebounds and three blocks matched up against the Irish's Luke Harangody, who would go on to win Big East Player of the Year.
In my section of seats alone I can remember seeing Joe Dumars, Vinny Del Negro, Danny Ainge. There were more powerful basketball men in the Garden that night than there are lame jokes about Mattoon, Illinois in Will Leitch's writing.
Beasley (and Rose, and Mayo) was The Next Big Thing.
But I wasn't buying it. To me, being a top-five pick means you're more than just a ball player. You're the face of a franchise. You're the guy on posters and billboards and in commercials hawking holiday ticket packages. You're the guy who will represent the city on a national stage if and when you fulfill your promise and make the All-Star Game.
On Draft night I placed him at No. 5 in the initial Rookie Rankings, writing:
"The talent that Mike Beasley has is undeniable. He's a whirling dervish of skill, speed and strength. Rather, it's his attitude that lands him in the middle of the top 10. His off-the-court antics have led him to be labeled anything from a goofball to a knucklehead, and those are on the polite end. What concerns me about Beasley is A) Pat Riley shopped the No. 2 pick because he wasn't high on Beasley's character B) He has people saying things like "I doubt Michael is ever going to get it" about him C) He's been "the man" wherever he's been. Now he's the third option after Dwyane Wade and Shawn Marion, who is not about to be the "I just want to fit in" Matrix now that he's out from Steve Nash's and Amare Stoudemire's shadows D) As a rookie head coach who Mayo recently confused for being just a "young team trainer," do you really think that Erik Spoelstra has the stones to properly discipline Beasley when he needs to? He'll have his big games, but he'll also have his moments that cause headaches for the Heat. Then again, maybe I'm being too harsh on the guy. Even Michael Jordan was suspended in junior high hitting a girl with a popsicle stick."
At the Rookie Photo Shoot I mocked the ridiculous poses Beasley found himself in with a "floating" basketball.
And in a preseason blog post I dropped the diplomacy and just went with my gut feeling when it comes to B-Easy, "I think tend to think that Beasley will be a colossal flop," causing me to catch the best kind of ire there is -- message board ire.
So, anyway, back to STAPLES Center on Saturday. Before the game I read the recap of the Heat's win from the previous night in Phoenix when Dwyane Wade scored 43 points, Beasley came off the bench and went scoreless on 0-for-5 shooting and Miami registered a crucial road win over the Suns.
After the win, the rookie was despondent, saying, "I was kind of lost, kind of confused what my role was," in response to the benching, "but as long as we're winning I don't need a role."
"He'll respond. Michael always responds. And there's nothing better than the carrot of playing time," Spoelstra said to Ira Winderman of the Miami Sun-Sentinal.
Respond he did. I sat slack-jawed in the second quarter of Miami's game in L.A. as Beasley took it to former Defensive Player of the Year Marcus Camby like he was Joe Calzaghe and Camby was Roy Jones Jr.
Beasley started off the quarter short on a jumper and long on a corner three and then got going with a left runner in the lane, a face up J, a fake-spin-finger roll combo aided by those ridiculously large paws of his, a couple of threes, a couple of free throws and a barrel-right-at-Camby layup to cap a 17-point period.
He finished with 24 points (one off his career high) on 10-for-16 shooting and five rebounds in 27 minutes off the pine.
"I was just playing," Beasley told me after the game. "I think it's the first game I've played so far when I just wasn't thinking and I think I played better when I don't have nothing on my mind."
We talked about his transition from the NCAA to the NBA.
"[It's been] Tough, but fun," Beasley said. "It's tough because it's new, it's fun because I'm around some fun-loving guys and this is what I love to do.
"It's basketball all the time. All the time is basketball, basketball, basketball. That's what I love, why wouldn't I want to play basketball all day? Some guys complain about two-hour, three-hour practices. I would rather just play basketball all day than sit in a box."
Who sits in a box all day besides a homeless person? I would rather play basketball than be homeless too. Here, here.
However flawed Beasley's analogy was, the Clippers game got him back on track. If you caught the highlights of Miami's next game against Golden State you saw the 6-9, 245-pounder playing defense like a guard and stealing an inbounds pass intended for Jamal Crawford in overtime to get to the foul line and hit the game-winning free throw.
The two games changed my perception of Beasley. So what if he's aloof at times? I can deal with a couple of questionable quotes here and there. Beasley had the mettle to be able to bounce back from the worst game of his career with those two games that showed more gut than Rosie O'Donnell wearing a baby tee.
I can watch a guy like that play every day.

While the story of "Personal Effects" was set in a dark urban and futuristic setting, the new songs are connected by a different theme. They are about things that haunt us, things that cannot fully be grasped, things we carry with us, emotions that echo from former times. The band conveys this with a slight change in their music and in the atmosphere that is created. Although the cinematic approach is still there, the music is enhanced by the increased use of guitar. Furthermore there is now an even larger variety of stylistic influences such as jazz or even heavy metal. Another highlight are the new hauntingly beautiful yet adventurous violin solos, 70ies style flute parts and intriguing electric harp sections.

This trip was for Legoland, and this hotel is not far from Legoland at all. We stayed for one night and regret having to give up the coziness, comfort, and the amenities to head home the next day. The room was clean, warm decor, and no smelly odor of any kind. This is my first time staying at an "extended stay hotel", and I'm extremely please. The microwave and refrigerator were already there--I hate asking for those stuff. My family tends to pack our snacks, food, and drinks when going on short trips.
I felt close to the other occupants in this hotel, so close, that I could hear my neighbor next to me brush their teeth and shower at 5:15AM. Then I heard the neighbor on the other side of me microwave his breakfast at 6:05AM. Bottom line, Marriott either revamped an old Extended Stay or poorly constructed their TownePlace Suites. It doesn't matter if they have updated wall paper if you can't sleep. Also, the wireless internet never worked during my stay. The signal varied from room to room, so I was hooked up with an ethernet chord. The staff was very nice and helpful, but things like these become frustrating when you travel every week. Next trip, I will happily forego my Marriott points to stay at the Hyatt Place two blocks South, where I've slept soundly and enjoyed a good business trip stay in the past.
I was working in San Diego and was looking for a suite hotel near a gym and a Starbucks. This gym fit the bill.
The hotel looked to be new along with most of the development in the area. The staff is very friendly and efficient. Check-in process went well.
There is a Starbucks just on the other side of the parking lot that is open at 4:30 AM. Nice for me as I was staying on east coast time. In addition there is a great 24 hour gym (1265 Laurel Tree Lane Suite 100 Carlsbad, CA 92011) nearby that only charged $30 for the week.
I was getting up early (2 AM) so the commune to La Jolla took about 20-30 minutes, but if you leave later expect it to be at least double that time.
This hotel does serve hard boiled eggs as part of the free breakfast.
The laundry room was large and the machines that I used were working fine. They also having a vending machine for laundry supplies in the launder room do you do not have to go to the front desk.
The hotel also has a nice small pool area.
I hope you find this review helpful.
The towneplace had excellent service during our stay. We checked in late at night and we needed milk for our two-year old. When inquiring at the front desk about the nearest supermarket, the front desk staff gave us some milk to tie us over us the morning. The shuttle service to Legoland was very convenient. The shuttle drivers were very friendly and engaging. When we were ready to be picked up, they arrived at the pick-up location in 1/2 hour. This saved us $12 parking at Legoland.
We had a two room suite and the beds were very comforable. They also have a decent breakfast in the morning with cereal, muffins, juice, and sausage/egg muffins.
Cons: As this is a pet hotel, the sofa still had a strong, lingering pet odor. Yet, the rooms were clean and odor-free. In addition, the sound proofing in the walls are very thin. If you have neighbors, they will wake you in the morning with showers/toliet flushes.
Overall, excellent service and comfortable accomodations!
This is a very nice hotel with great amenities with one exception. We were traveling with children and the sofa bed was unusable. The children ended up sleeping on the floor on the cushions and extra pillows because they were miserable in the pull out sleeper. Do not expect to use it. We were there for several days and this was a constant problem that the hotel could not deal with.
As a Nurse I work hard, this is my second experience staying in this new property. The two bedroom suite accommodated my family of 5 quite nicely. The showers are hot, the beds comfortable, the staff friendly and polite until you challenge them. upon checking IN I was quoted a price, at checkout one night was 48.00 more than what I was told, the manager a Mrs. Liberty Barajas was unable or unwilling to honor the quoted price by her staff. it is unfortunate that Marriot cannot simply address this issue, I am not a cheap person, but I do have a standard that what is stated in a price is honored outside usual and customary circumstances. Below is the email dialogue for each person to consider the merits at will...
Mr. Tjalas,
I apologize, however without anything stating the rate of $169 I am
unable to honor your request. I will say this Mr. Tjalas, if you do
reach out to Marriott they will forward it back to me to reply to.
Warm Regards,

Started off shaky as the Greek Box Office put my wife and I in different rows, WTF! Went back to the box office after the Mariachi El Bronx set, complained and they accommodated with seats (together this time) in the Terrace section, a nice upgrade. Music was stellar with energetic sets from Mariachi El Bronx and Ozomatli. Los Lobos played a great, albeit short, set of mostly original tunes covering their 40 years. All in all a great evening.

It's unfortunate that anime as an art form distances itself from the source material it borrows from, on occasion. The Empire is a monolithic force, there is a reason that it consists of white men. Of course, throw anime on top of that and everyone has to look "unique." I know George Lucas is well known for his ham-handed symbolism, but still. With that nit picked, twas pretty interesting.

Series: Responding to "Laudato Si'" by Pope Francis (4 entries)
Pope Francis's June 2015 encyclical has stirred international conversation on how science and faith come together on the question of ecology and climate change. This short series features several responses from friends of BioLogos, including world-renowned Christian climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe. The series concludes with closing thoughts by BioLogos content manager Jim Stump.
Series: BioLogos Basics (7 entries)
So what is BioLogos? Well it all began with a scientist and a book.
From the Archives: Evolution as a Scientific Theory
In common English usage, "theory" means something like "guess" or "hunch". In science, however, a theory is an idea that has stood the test of time.
What is Evolution?
The word evolution can be used in many ways, but in biology, it means descent with modification. In other words, small modifications occur at the genetic level (i.e. in DNA) when a new generation descends from its parents. Over many generations these modifications can result in significant differences from the ancestral population.
The Changing Face of Evolutionary Theory?
Is evolution driven mainly by random genetic variation, or are there other factors at play? Michael Burdett reviews the scientific debate.
Series: Adam, Eve, and Human Population Genetics (14 entries)
From the Archives: Miracles and Science, Part 5
By getting rid of the miracle stories in the Bible, Bultmann and his followers hoped to make the Christian story more palatable to modern man. Although I recognize the emotional weight of this sentiment, I am not convinced that it is an intellectually coherent approach, mainly for reasons of self-consistency.
From the Archives: Speciation and Macroevolution
A common challenge to evolutionary theory is that while life does indeed change over time (what is known as microevolution), no one has ever seen one species evolve into another species (macroevolution).
N.T. Wright and the Resurrection: Reviewing "Surprised by Scripture" (Part 3)
Wright reminds us that robust Christian faith takes evidence on board, but fuses reason with faith, hope and love.
Series: Evolution Basics (50 entries)
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Series: Reviewing "Darwin's Doubt" (11 entries)
Still Surprised by Easter
We now take for granted an understanding of the Christian story that was largely worked out by Paul and later theologians. Even though the Gospels were composed after Paul's letters, they were concerned to tell the story itself in all its strangeness as it had been preserved by the first generation of Christians. And what we find in the stories themselves is the shock and wonder and surprise that the resurrection caused.
Evolution: What We Know and What We Don't
This entry was originally posted on February 17, 2010. In this video conversation, Jeff Schloss makes the observation that when we use the term "evolution", it is not always exactly clear what we are actually discussing unless we denote the intended usage.
Does Resurrection Contradict Science?
So what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.
Evolution and Immunity: Same Story?
The evidence suggests that God has chosen to work through a random process, one which involves the routine creation and destruction of millions of cells that never get used. This is the ordinary means by which God maintains our health. The miracles of healing recorded in the Bible are miraculous precisely because they don't occur by this normal, natural process.
Searching for Motivated Belief: Understanding John Polkinghorne, Part 2
To understand more clearly where Polkinghorne lies on the larger landscape of science and religion, let's consider his approach to the Resurrection. Many contemporary thinkers, including some theologians and clergy, believe that "science" has somehow made it impossible to believe in the Resurrection, the deity of Jesus, and even belief in the transcendent God of the Bible.
Series: Harmonizing Science, Ethics, and Praxis (4 entries)
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
Series: To Serve and Preserve—Genesis 2 and the Human Calling (4 entries)
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.
Creator of the Stars at Night
The God who created the cosmos is the God who came to us as a child in Bethlehem.

Just got here. I'll join everyone else this lineup is disappointing and for me Price is quickly becoming disappointing all together.
For those that don't like Frazier at 1B, he has played a ton there, and Mesoraco seemed unwilling/unsure of himself at any other spot than catcher right now. Price shouldn't play Lutz or Bernadina at 1B against Hamels.
if he plays lutz on first, we have decent defence on first with no offence and good defence at third with good offence => I´ll take the 2nd opportunity

Our 8 hitter is bunting to setup Cueto. I'd prefer to see a LH bat against Hamels. What in the hell?
Wait, sacrifice to bring up Cueto. Wtf?

I had a dream. A very sad one. Well three dreams. One was sad, other was suspense and the other was fun.
The suspense was, I had a couple of friends. This girl, she wasn't my friend, but I don't know. She sort of kidnapped my friends and hid them. Luckily I found them before she murdered them. I even ended up removing her fake make up xD As ye can see, I don't remember much in that dream.
The sad one was, I found a filthy, stray dog in the street near the beach. I fed it with chocolate sticks and it looks REALLY famished to me. So I decided to take it with me. I shouted to my mom that I have to go to the bathroom. I went there to clean it.
I named the dog as Racheria.
As I was cleaning it in the shower, I didn't care if I was soaked from the shower whilst wearing my dry clothes, I noticed a thread in its mouth. I tried pulling it off but Racheria was wincing in pain. I guess the thread was deep inside it. So I left it. The thread felt like... a fishing thread thing from a fishin rod. When I finished washing it, it was a golden retriever dog. It was so cute!
Then Mom came and saw the dog. She decided to pull the thread with ease whilst Racheria was asleep. But... I'm unsure. There was a huge hook out of the mouth. And for some reason I couldn't wake Racheria up. I rushed outside to get her to the hospital, but when we arrived here, it was already too late ):
Then I woke myself up..... that was scary!
The fun one was, there's a small village and its guided by the protector wih orange, spiky hair. He was chunky. The fun thing I remember about is that, its food everywhere. Since their so small and tiny like fairies, they use food to attack each other's villages.
Like donuts for wheels, 100s and 1000s as bullets, stuff like that. I don't remember much about it though. Bt it was fun.
Weird thing about it is that, I drew that character during University last last year. He looks just like him! Especially it was a small village and that he was the tallest charater and he had red orange spiky hair and was very muscular...wow! My drawing came to life in my dream o.0 nya~
i can control my dreams most of the time,but this was a exception for the longest time
so i find myself in my brothers room,with Bianca talking to someone(think it was Hilda from BW),and me in the corner watching,but really all i heard was we will find him(somehow my friend). so she transforms into suicune,and i'm teleported outside right next to a football field,suicune gone,and at night,and i can apparently visualize a map in front of my eyes,my friend marked by an electivire,i run up this realllly tall ramp,see my friend is on another,completely separate ramp,so i somehow do a superman jump,then this voice saying "but you have to go around the pokemon way!"time skips,i'm at my house talking to my friend,who looks a lot like volkner,talking about pokemon. the ast thing i said was "the pokemon we have today are better then the 150 at the start"apparently my dog is a diehard gen 1 fan,and tries to bite me,i run, and hit a wall where my bathroom door would be. i snap out of it.
do the shuckle sweep

I had a creepy dream once that wasn't scary enough to qualify as a nightmare: I was in my bed, but it was outside, for some reason. I looked around and saw a shadowy hooded figure approaching. I got creeped out, then woke up. And it wasn't Slender, because this was back in 2006, or something. Come to think of it, this was about the same year I hallucinated that my dad was Santa Claus...Man, 6 year old me was messed up. I didn't even get scared watching Doctor Who at that age. And living plastic is f**ked up.

I had a dream where my whole entire fourth grade class was in anime form and our teacher was killing us in a mine cart, like the kind from Temple Run 2.
Sorry for the hiatus. I'll try to be back and active as soon as possible. Thank you for your consideration.
I had a dream where I was getting my hair cut. It was so normal for a dream that I had to share it.
Being ignored displeases me.
Dreamed that I was in a forest surrounded by candy. Then ants came and covered my whole body
I dreamt about seeing a shadow. Then I saw it clearly... it was a grey, transparent ghost. How mundane and stereotypical.

Had a freaky dream that SCP 173 was stalking my brothers and I (as well as a few other people whose faces and names I didn't recognize), and we were avoiding it best we could so we could go to bed. I'm not as disturbed by it now like I was when I woke up, in which I was all "Urrrrrrgh" doing so and never wanted to dream that kind of dream again. However, I'm pretty sure this is the second time I've dreamt something like this, though it's been a while. I was also snoring, apparently, so maybe I slept wrong or something...

Last night, I dreamed I was wandering around this abandoned house with some guy. We were dressed in FBI-type garb and there were these two kids in that house, a boy and a girl. They claimed to be 11 and 8 respectively, but were far too tall. Their limbs were longer than my entire body and spindly, like a spider. They would purposely break their arms and legs so that they would grow back longer than before. The guy and I must have been part of some SCP-like organization, because we tried to apprehend them and bring them back to "head-quarters". They skewered him on their arms, but they kept calling me "mommy". They took me to this room full of candy, but I managed to get them to return to "head-quarters" with me.
I will be on here very, very rarely. The account is not dead, per se, but I will not be on often. This has become a den of hatred, hostility, and anger. It is not the SPPF it was when I joined, and I really dislike coming here. To those of you who were nice to me and were my friend, thank you. Goodbye.

Bradley and Gore Campaigns Split Harvard's Top Black Scholars

''Let the word go forth from this historic place here and now that Bill Bradley is on the move, he is on the move! And that we are there with him, beside him, around him, because we are fundamentally dedicated to keeping alive the best of the democratic tradition and Bill Bradley is the president who best embodies that, he enacts that, he in fact provides the presidential gravitas necessary to take this nation into the 21st century! Let me say that again: presidential gravitas!''
Dr. West's usual gig is more veritas than gravitas. He is a professor in the Afro-American studies department at Harvard, considered by many to be the most prodigious brain trust of black intellectuals in the country, home to Henry Louis Gates Jr., its chairman, and William Julius Wilson, a leading sociologist, among others.
But in this campaign season of two wonky and highly race-conscious Democrats, such desirable African-American scholars get quickly booked up. Dr. Gates, a literary and cultural critic, has agreed to help Vice President Al Gore on issues of race and education. Dr. Wilson, an expert on poverty, has just signed on to advise the Bradley campaign. And Dr. West, in a more active campaign role than those of his colleagues, is traveling the trail off and on at his own expense, to shout from the rooftops that he loves Bill Bradley.
Those differing allegiances stem in large part from long friendships, Dr. West's with the Bradleys and Dr. Gates's with the Gores. But both professors say they also mirror a central difference in approach between the candidates: Mr. Gore's emphasis on the pragmatic versus Mr. Bradley's on the ideal. The candidates themselves have been hammering each other on that very difference in recent days, with Mr. Gore chiding Mr. Bradley that the presidency is no mere academic exercise, and Mr. Bradley chiding Mr. Gore that real leaders must be bold and not just ''nibble around the edges.''
In the Harvard ebony tower, it is Dr. West, a self-described ''democratic socialist'' and ''radical democrat'' who champions social justice in his work, who emphasizes the public policy ideal, while Dr. Gates -- who describes himself as well left of center, just not as far left as Dr. West -- is the pragmatist.
Dr. West, said Dr. Gates, ''articulates ideals to which every society should aspire, and I admire that; I, on the other hand, am much more pragmatic. I see my job as trying to implement what is practical in that idealistic program, and in a way, that's one of the differences between Bradley and Gore.''
For example, Dr. Gates said, he loves the idea of universal health care coverage, but deems it unlikely that Mr. Bradley's proposal for universal care could be implemented now. So the question becomes, ''in the meantime, how do we begin to move toward that, and I see Gore's program as more pragmatic.''
Dr. West, when he discusses his support for Mr. Bradley, mentions the candidate's positions on poverty and race and health care. But -- staying unusually on message for an eclectic thinker who slides easily from Chekhov to Coltrane to Nietzsche -- he almost always focuses on Mr. Bradley's personal qualities, and on describing a friendship that transcends politics.
''He really is my brother,'' Dr. West said. ''And this is hard to convey to the public because they think it's about public policy, they think it's about our concerns about race and racism, but most fundamentally, he's my brother and I'm his brother and we relate to each other soul to soul, and it has to do with the kind of person he is.''
''So it's true,'' Dr. West said, ''that I support his efforts to talk about child poverty, I support his efforts to come to terms with health care. But it's much more the kind of person he is in terms of integrity, in terms of his dignity, in terms of his mind and soul, and that's what friendship is. In that regard, it cuts so much deeper than is often conveyed.''
What has sometimes been conveyed in campaign commentaries is that Dr. West is an odd, unusually radical, unusually ideological bedfellow for a mainstream candidate. Shelby Steele, a scholar of race relations at the Hoover Institution, predicts that Dr. West's visibility could alienate some centrist voters, as could his association with the Rev. Al Sharpton.
''These are not figures that are attractive to the political center,'' Dr. Steele said.
But the prevailing view among several political scientists interviewed was that such alienation was highly unlikely because most people were not familiar enough with Dr. West's views on, say, redistribution of wealth, to take umbrage. The bigger question, they said, was whether Dr. West's support could make a difference for Mr. Bradley, particularly with a black population that generally leans toward Mr. Gore.
''People take their cues essentially from political leaders and not from academics,'' said John Walters, a University of Maryland political scientist. In the critical campaign territory of the South in particular, where Dr. West has offered to tour with Mr. Bradley, ''what moves that vote is the political infrastructure,'' and the Gore campaign has a solid grip on it, Mr. Walters said.
