My four-year-old son, Lincoln, has been hugely into hopscotch lately (and by extension, this means my little Henry is too, since he thinks he can do anything his brother is doing). Living in central Texas, it's not practical for us to spend much time outside in the summer hopscotching.
Enter: masking tape hopscotch in our living room! This is an easy-peasy project for any day that is too hot, too cold, too windy, or too rainy to play outside. And can you imagine how fun would it be to have hopscotch in your hallway or mudroom? Very.
Guess what items are needed? Yep! A roll of masking tape. It doesn't get simpler than that.
Masking tape hopscotch has stayed on our floors for up to a week with no ill-effects (but you will definitely want to test it out in an inconspicuous area first to ensure your floors won't be marred.) I've even done some light mopping over the design without any trouble. When you're tired of hopscotch adorning your floors, simply pull up the tape. This was Henry's favorite part.
What are your favorite ways to keep busy inside when the weather outside is less than stellar?
Do you have any special memories of indoor play from your childhood?
Crystal stops by GiversLog a couple times a month to share her fresh ideas. When she's not writing for GiversLog, Crystal can be found mothering, knitting, and cooking. Stop by and see what's new at her etsy shop: monograms, Greek keys, and chevron stripes. Oh my!

Authorities seized nearly 1500 plants with an estimated street value of $4.5 million Wednesday night, from a rental house near Desert Inn and Fort Apache roads.
SWAT officers became sick from the fumes and had to use hazmat suits.
Two people were arrested, and are under investigation for possible links to other Las Vegas drug operations.

It is absolutely to an online gambler's disadvantage if they are not going to avail of the numerous casino bonuses to avail when gambling online. Online casinos are in business where casino bonuses are the major attraction to market their casino games.
The best online casino bonuses are the main staple on the casino's menu of services and it is up to the online gambler to order them. With so many online casinos operating on the Internet finding the best casino bonus may become confusing to an online gambler.
The competition of online casino establishments is very tough that most of them may offer similar types of casino bonuses but often with different terms and conditions. A way that an online gambler can ensure finding the best casino bonus to take advantage of will be to shop online and visit different online casinos and review their bonus terms.
Another way that can enhance an online gambler's advantage search for the best casino bonus will be to visit online reviews of casino bonuses that offer the best benefits to online casino players.
In order to evaluate the casino bonuses that can provide the best advantage to an online gambler, it is important to look for important factors that will help them maximize their chance to extract the best benefits from the casino bonus.
There are numerous types of online casino bonuses and proper selection should revolve within the personal and specific needs of the casino player specifically their bankroll. One may always consider choosing for a high maximum bonus amount or maybe a higher percentage of a bonus match.
One should also recognize the need to meet the casino's wagering requirements which is important to review prior to signing up an account to an online casino. This will relatively involve making initial deposit into the player's online account and they will be required to play minimum wagering activities that will clear them of the requirements to claim their bonus.
One way of clearing one's casino bonus will be to choose the type of games that the casino will allow for their players to play in order to meet the wagering requirements. When playing roulette one can take advantage of using the system of bet hedging where one can bet $20 for red and another $20 for black on a single spin.
This will count a total of $40 from the wagering requirement that gives a player less than half percent risk. However there are some casinos that do not allow bet hedging on their games on meeting their wagering requirements. Again reading the bonus terms will always save the player precious time from meeting delays and hassles when trying to claim for their casino bonus.
Playing casino games with low house advantage can also give a player the advantage for an enhanced chance to win better while playing to clear the requirements. These are important considerations when an online gambler wants to take advantage of online bonuses waiting to be claimed online.

I'm becoming more interested in Moor Larkins Blogs.
Moor linked to a daily Mirror Article 30th Sep 12
Taken from the article.
Victim 1: He violated me in worst way possible
It was meant to be the trip of a lifetime... to see the bright lights of
But it turned into a nightmare for a young woman of 20 who claims she was raped by Sir Jimmy Savile.
The Top Of The Pops star invited her and a friend to stay with him at his London council flat. But in the middle of the night, the woman, now in her 60s, claims Jimmy climbed on top of her while she slept and started having sex with her. She woke up suddenly to find him attacking her.
Traumatised by that night in
, she hasnt breathed a word of it since. She is not part of the TV documentary but has bravely agreed to speak for the first time about her terrible ordeal to the*Sunday Mirror. The woman, whose *identity we are protecting, said: Even now I can still remember Jimmy lying on top of me. He *violated me in the worst way possible and Ill *never forget it.
I was so shocked because the rest of the weekend he had been so friendly and fun. We had gone to the
Top Of The Pops studio.
In 1965 Top of the Pops was recorded in a converted church on Dickinson Road, Rusholme Manchester.
The first edition of Top of the Pops was broadcast on New Year's Day 1964 from the studio,[13] and Yorkshire host Jimmy Savile stated: "anything they didn't want to do in London, they slung up into this old church. And, of course, they didn't want anything to do with pop music so that was our place".[14] But when viewing figures took off the BBC decided that the pop show had to be broadcast from London, although it remained based in Manchester for three years before moving to Lime Grove Studios in west London in 1967.

Adolescents Benefit From Attending 12-Step Meetings, according to study led by MGH psychologist John F. Kelly
Adolescents Benefit From Attending 12-Step Meetings
Study led by MGH psychologist John Kelly
In a new research study led by a Massachusetts General Hospital psychologist, adolescent outpatients who attend community-based 12-step programs for up to a year were shown to have significantly better substance abuse outcomes, supporting the value of this resource for young participants.
The current study, led by John F. Kelly, PhD, from the Department of Psychiatry, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, was published online April 16 and in the July print issue of Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research.
In the online report in Medscape News, the participants were followed for a year beyond treatment. "Importantly, going to AA/NA meetings helped these adolescents achieve sobriety, irrespective of whether their initial goal at treatment entry was to stay completely abstinent or not," the researchers concluded.
U.S. News & World Report ranks Mass General psychiatry second among U.S. hospitals.

|3/26: #13 Gettysburg Marches By Garnet
The nationally-ranked Bullets scored six goals in the second half to bust open an otherwise close contest, defeating Swarthmore 10-4 on a cloudy Saturday afternoon at Clothier Field .
Gettysburg drew first blood as junior midfielder Chris Renzi beat Garnet goalie Frank Mazzucco at 8:02 to give the Bullets a 1-0 lead in the first Centennial Conference match-up for both squads.
Swarthmore quickly knotted the contest at the 6:06 mark when electric attack man Tim Chryssikos '05 put home his team-leading 13th goal of the season.
The Bullets came out firing in period two, placing a pair goals on the board three minutes in for the 3-1 lead.
Rugged midfielder Jay Charles '07 charged up the left flank and made it a one-goal game with 8:07 left in the half, eliciting a roar from the 225 fans on hand. Charles shrugged off a stick check at 15 yards and created enough space to spit a left-handed shot between the left post and Bullet goalie Pat Vaughan.
Gettysburg responded as many talented teams do, putting another score on the board in a short amount of time. Junior middie T.J. Liberto made his way to the front of the net, scoring at 6:27 to send the Bullets into the intermission with a 4-2 lead.
Chryssikos answered the bell in the third period, tallying his second score (14th of the season) at the 12:46 mark, and the lead was 4-3 Bullets.
The young men from Gettysburg responded once again, running off three scores in a little over two minutes to push their lead to 7-3. Renzi claimed two more scores to complete the hat-trick, while junior Evan Gallant collected his second score of the day.
Senior midfielder Tom Coughlin (pictured above) made it 7-4, notching an unassisted goal at 4:02, ending the goal-filled third stanza.
Gettysburg surged forward in the fourth period, getting three more goals on offense and Vaughan made three big saves in goal, sending the Bullets (4-2, 0-1) to their second consecutive win.
Mazzucco, facing a steady dose of shots all day, made ten stops in goal for the Garnet (2-3, 0-1).
Swarthmore travel to northern New Jersey on Saturday, April 2nd to face Drew University in a 2:00 p.m. contest.

When you go on the road and win 2 out of the 3 games, you can say you had a good trip. That is what happened with the Cleveland Cavaliers who only lost to the Miami Heat in this 3 game road trip. Last night the Cavaliers beat the Chicago Bulls and they did it without the help of Kyrie Irving who sat out with a sore knee. The Cavaliers pulled off the 101-98 win over Chicago with some great help from Dion Waiters who scored 25 points in the game. This rookie has stepped it up on this road trip and has played some outstanding basketball.
The Cavaliers as a team have played good basketball since mid January. They seem to be finally getting it. They understand they have to stay focused for the entire 48 minutes. The Cavaliers are getting some great help off the bench, last night Wayne Ellington led the way for Cleveland's bench scoring 13 against the Bulls. Another guy that is really stepping it up big for the Cavs is Shaun Livingston who scored 15 in last nights game. He is a guy that can handle the ball very well and he seems to be a leader when he is out on the floor. The Cavaliers are now 19-38 on the season.

DeWitt Josiah Williams was not with his teammates in the Jamesville-DeWitt football locker room before the Red Rams' game against Fulton Friday night. J-D head coach Eric Ormond didn't even know if his star running back would arrive before the second half as the Red Rams jogged out for warm ups.
Williams was attending his grandmother's wake that afternoon. However, he was able to arrive in time.
"Are you okay?" Ormond asked Williams when he approached him on the near sideline.
"Yeah I'm all warmed up," Williams replied.
"No I don't mean that. I mean are you okay? Are you okay to go?"
"Yeah coach, I am."
And Williams proved it.
Leading the Red Rams onto the field, Williams backpedaled diagonally toward the end zone. His hips swiveled with each skipping step. His broad shoulders swung loosely. Cutting through the cloud of fog that sat over the field at J-D High School, Williams' red helmet shimmered under the lights as his body moved in perfect synchronization.
Peering out between the bars on his facemask at the swarm of Red Ram teammates in front of him, Williams lifted his right hand and rhythmically jazzed it back and forth.
It was almost game time — and this one would be special.
"I just started thinking about her," Williams said, referring to his grandmother. "That just really motivated me to play tonight."
Racking up 141 yards and three touchdowns, Williams helped lead J-D to a dominating 42-0 shutout over the Red Raiders.
The 6-foot-2, 183-pound senior finished with nine carries for 72 yards and a touchdown, to go with 69 receiving yards on a pair of impressive scoring tosses from freshman quarterback Jack Brotzki.
Brotzki and his pallet of playmakers, most notably Williams and junior running back Rasheed Baker, who ran for 181 yards and three touchdowns, throttled the Red Raiders defense for 449 yards of total offense.

Letter: The big picture
Georges Pardo, Naples
The big picture
Much is being said about exporting jobs to countries with low labor costs.
In the midst of all the partisan bickering and fingerpointing, the real cause of job loss in America — and most developed countries — has been forgotten.
Years ago man discovered that instead of spending days under the sun digging a trench with a shovel, he could sit in the air-conditioned cab of a machine, and by pushing buttons dig a trench a hundred times as big in a small fraction of the time.
This is when the demand for manual labor began to decline and shifted to fewer skilled workers. With technical progress and the advent of computers, increasingly skilled workers were needed while machines kept replacing entire professions.
Unfortunately people need an income to be able to purchase machine-made goods and services, and while the world population is increasing, the demand for unskilled labor is decreasing.
The "Industrial Revolution" is still going on.
We better face reality — foreign cheap labor is only a temporary stopgap.
Changes are urgently needed: We must stress education and professional training at all levels. We must change our working habits, such as reducing the workweek from 40 hours to perhaps 30 or less, while proportionally increasing the pay scales. We must lower — not raise — the retirement age and increase contributions for retirement.
And we should accept that as tasks become more complex, some people will not be capable to perform adequately and will need help.

Making a Difference:
There is no question that KET put us on the map in a number of ways.
Dorin Luck
W.C. Handy Blues and Barbecue Festival
The sounds that filled the air at Audubon Mill Park on the Henderson riverfront were more reminiscent of the subjects of John James Audubon's artwork than the smoky strains of the blues.
Despite that disparity, the legacies of the two famous men to which this lovely river town lays claim—one an internationally known naturalist, the other, a man sometimes called the Father of the Blues—become one each June when the annual W.C. Handy Blues and Barbecue Festival tunes up in the park once more.
"I love music—I was a child of the sixties, or almost was; I had older sisters and I listened to their music and all the great music on AM radio," said Dorin Luck, a Hendersonville native, local lawyer, and chief coordinator of the festival.
"I grew up with all the great music, all the great rock 'n' roll. I've loved music all my life, I've played a fair amount—but what drives me is just a love of music. I've had it all my life."
The 20th anniversary incarnation of the W.C. Handy Blues and Barbecue Festival, set for June 12-19, is the sixth Henderson festival KET is recording for inclusion in the popular Jubilee series celebrating various forms of American music. The acts recorded in Henderson this summer will premiere on Jubilee's next new season.
Making a Difference ... with Your Help!
Your financial support helps KET continue to make a positive difference in your community. DONATE NOW
Since its premiere in 1996, Jubilee has presented an eclectic mix of traditional and contemporary bluegrass, blues, folk, gospel, and other forms of music. And including the Handy festival once again strengthens the ties between the nationally known festival and KET, which distributes Jubilee to public television stations nationwide.
"There is no question that KET put us on the map in a number of ways," said Luck, who has been involved with the festival in one capacity or another since the festival's second year.
"I cant tell you how many bands, from the top to the bottom, have commented on the effect KET has had on them. They know when their show is being aired somewhere in the country because they'll start getting e-mails."
By partnering with KET, the festival not only ensured that its lineup would reach audiences both in Kentucky and further afield, but also that these traditional American music art forms would receive continuing support. One artist in particular has directly benefited from his Jubilee appearances.
"Bernard Allison's DVD Kentucky Fried Blues was produced in cooperation with KET," Luck said, "and he'll tell you—because he told us the last time he was here—that he thinks of Henderson as his home and that KET production was instrumental in propelling him forward in his career."
One of the ways Jubilee keeps music like the blues alive is by including interviews with musicians in its programs, a component that Luck finds particularly valuable. In addition, Jubilees coverage has improved the Handy festival by encouraging it to upgrade its sound system and pay close attention to aesthetics.
"Our desire to have KET involved was to keep this festival alive," Luck said. "We've ramped up the stage and the lighting and the way we do things. The performances themselves show the music in a good light, and the interviews, which in some ways quite frankly are the highlights of the Jubilee programs—and I cant think of a better way to promote this festival than on KET."
You've got to pay your dues if you want to sing the blues—that's a truism that everyone who loves this art form knows. Why does Luck love it?
"Its ability to convey pain and emotion, and its ability to transcend it, all at the same time," he said. "Its a unique form of music. Plus it's just fun to dance to."

Fun Family Fitness
Statistics show that the number of people who are overweight is on the rise in America, both in children and adults. According to the American Heart Association, 9 million children and adolescents between the ages of 6 and 19 are overweight, and a staggering 142 million adults age 20 and older are overweight.1,2
With schedules that are often jam-packed juggling work, family engagements, household duties and social commitments, it can be hard to find time to get in a good workout. Engaging in physical activity as a family is a great way to share some quality family time while also keeping everyone in the family healthy and fit. It's also an opportunity for you to forget about the stresses of daily life and unleash your inner child. So choose an activity you all enjoy, and get moving!
Here are some fun ideas to help get you started:
- Turn up the tunes and bust a move with a family dance off. Dancing not only releases mood-enhancing endorphins, but is also a great form of exercise. Teach your kids some moves from when you were growing up — Cabbage Patch anyone? Each family member can create their own dance routine to teach to the rest of the family, or hold a contest for the best routine!
- Turn household chores into a contest. Who doesn't enjoy a little friendly competition? Have some fun and take care of mundane household chores in one shot with a household Olympics competition. Who can vacuum a room the fastest? Who can rake the most leaves in 2 minutes?
- Go for a walk together. To keep things interesting, let a different family member choose your path for each walk. Take the opportunity to explore your surroundings, discover various forms of plant life, or just take the time to chat and catch up on each other's day.
- Play a game of tag. When was the last time you ran until you were out of breath, just for fun? Relive this classic game from your childhood, and enjoy the simple pleasure of running without focusing on how far you've run or how many calories you've burned.
- Take up a sport. Sports are a great way to stay in shape, and the options are virtually limitless. Shoot around the basketball court at the park, go for a swim at the local pool, play a match of tennis, go ice skating, or invite some friends to the park and play a game of softball.
- Coach your child's sports team. Not only will you have a chance to bond with your child and teach them important life lessons about teamwork and good sportsmanship, but you'll also get a good workout running after a group of kids.
- Join a class together. Many community centers, YMCA locations and local organizations offer classes that are open to multiple age groups, from yoga to martial arts. So pick an activity you'll all enjoy and learn together!

Answer:The process of wrinkle resistance:
1) Resin is applied to fabric by pushing it into the fabric w with pressure.
2) fabric is dried
3) fabric is cured
4) fabric is washed

very high standard for bedding.
Always wash before use.

Thank you for visiting us at Saint
Bernadette Church, which is a Roman Catholic parish located
in Bayou Vista - between Patterson and Berwick, Louisiana, in the Diocese of Lafayette. Our pastor is Father William (Fr. Bill) Rogalla.
Please pray for vocations to the priesthood in our Diocese so that one day each parish will have its own priest pastor in residence.
Catholics Come Home
There's an old saying that goes, "Once a Catholic, always a Catholic." Maybe you have been away from the Church for a little while or quite some time, but somehow you now feel a tug at your heart calling you back home to the Catholic Church. That's why we're here.
Whether or not you know you want to return to the Catholic Church, we're here to help you take that second look.
That mysterious pull inside you, driving you to look into your faith once more, comes directly from God. Your Heavenly Father is yearning for a relationship with you again, in the Church founded by Jesus 2000 years ago. He's waiting for you with open arms.

Examination of Conscience for Adults
This examination of conscience is not intended merely as a checklist to be used prior to confession. The purpose of this examination is to help souls to know what actions or attitudes are sinful and the gravity of the particular sin. The hope is that this knowledge will serve to keep people from committing these sins.
* Three things are necessary for a sin to be mortal: 1. Serious matter (things listed on this sheet); 2. Knowledge or firm belief that the act is seriously wrong prior to committing the act; 3. Full consent to the will.
All three of these conditions must be present simultaneously for a sin to be mortal. This means that if you did not know the act was seriously wrong, then you are not guilty of having committed a mortal sin. If you did not will the act, e.g., if you were forced or if it was in a dream, you are not guilty of having committed a mortal sin.
All mortal sins committed since your last confession must be confessed by both type and number, i.e., the title of the sin and how many times it was done. If there is a mortal sin from the past that was forgotten and has not been confessed, it should be confessed at your next confession. It is not necessary to confess venial sins, but it is a good and pious practice.

Diocese of Lafayette Website
Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration
One of the greatest graces for our parish is Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration in our chapel. To quote Pope John Paul II; "We come here to meet the Heart of Jesus pierced for us, from which water and blood gush. It is the redeeming love, which is at the origin of salvation, of our salvation, which is at the origin of the Church. Now still today, the living Christ loves us and presents His Heart to us as the source of our redemption… We are called not only to meditate and contemplate on this mystery of Christ's love; we are called to take part in it.
It is the mystery of the Holy Eucharist, the center of our Faith, the center of our worship of Christ's merciful love manifested in His Sacred Heart, a mystery which is adored here night and day. In the Eucharist – this is also the meaning of perpetual adoration – we enter the movement of love from which all interior progress and all apostolate efficacy springs." Mother Teresa taught "When you look at the crucifix, you understand how much Jesus loved you then. When you look at the Sacred Host you understand how much Jesus loves you now."
If you would like to participate in adoration please contact Jenny at the rectory or Murray for more information.

Developers of new Apple app say it could bring Catholics back to confession
SOUTH BEND, Ind. (CNS) -- Can modern technology help strengthen our faith? Some techno-savvy Catholics from South Bend think so. In his message for the 2011 World Communications Day, Pope Benedict XVI said it's not enough to just "proclaim the Gospel through the new media," but one must also "witness consistently." The developers of "Confession: A Roman Catholic App" for Apple's iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch think their product helps people do both. Brothers Patrick and Chip Leinen and their friend Ryan Kreager said feedback has been positive. The app, reportedly the only one with an imprimatur, is designed to help people make a better confession.

Roman Missal - New Words: A Deeper Meaning, but the Same Mass
The formal language of the Roman Catholic Church is Latin, and we in America use an English translation of the Latin prayers from the Roman Missal (this is the book the priest uses during Mass). These translations were made in the 1970's and reflect the thinking of the time. While our current prayers are valid, they are not a literal translation of the Latin. The new translations are much more accurate translations of the official Latin prayers of the Church.
While it will take time getting used to them, the new translations will help delve deeper into the central mystery of our Faith – the Eucharist. This link takes you to the United States Bishops Conference website which gives more information on these upcoming changes. As Advent draws closer Fr. Bill will also be explaining the changes in a series of weekend homilies.

�Christ is inseparable from the Church which is his Body." The Pope observed during an audience with the community of the Pontifical Ethiopian College.
�It is in the Church that Christ joins the baptized more closely to himself," he said, "and, nourishing them at the Eucharistic table, he brings them to participate in his glorious life.�
He also reminded the priests and the seminarians that Christ �does not suppress the person's characteristic qualities; on the contrary, he elevates them, he ennobles them, making them his; he calls them to serve his ministry and his work.� VATICAN CITY, JAN. 30, 2011

Erin Christiansen condition update
Erin Christiansen, Chief Meteorologist for KGUN 9 On Your Side
Notes by: Forrest Carr, KGUN9 News Director
KGUN9 Chief Meteorologist Erin Christiansen has not been in the studio all week due to what originally was thought to be a case of bronchitis, probably brought on by one of the cold viruses that have been going around lately. As it turns out, it's a bit more serious than that. Erin now tells us she's been diagnosed with an acute case of Valley Fever.
As long time southern Arizona natives know, Valley Fever is an infection caused by a fungus common to our area. Inhaled spores can settle in the lungs and cause symptoms similar to a cold or flu in some people. If not caught and treated, the infection can damage the lungs.
Erin tells us that her doctors say her condition is very treatable and that the medical outlook for her is good. But she will miss work the rest of this week and all of next week at least.
Erin has authorized us to share this information with you, and we'll keep you updated. Meanwhle, well-wishers can reach Erin by way of her work email (firstname.lastname@example.com) or via her Facebook page.

Academic Programs in ECE
The School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech offers some of the world's most comprehensive educational and research programs for undergraduate and graduate students. Led by faculty at the top of their fields, ECE academics are augmented by research centers and labs that provide students with hands-on experience and by international programs that teach students how to succeed in the global high-tech marketplace.
Products and technologies developed by electrical engineers and computer engineers at Georgia Tech and by ECE alumni have made a dramatic impact on everyday lives. A recent CNN program featured the Top 25 innovations of the past 25 years, highlighting technologies that power the Internet, hybrid cars, modern hearing aids, and cell phones, just to name a few. All of these things, developed by electrical and computer engineers, increase efficiency, enable faster communications, provide cleaner energy sources, or help people with disabilities lead fuller lives.
Besides doing challenging and worthwhile work, electrical and computer engineers are among the top 10 most in demand majors by employers, according to the National Association of Colleges and Employers Job Outlook 2005 Survey. Graduates of ECE at Georgia Tech enjoy two distinct advantages–they are among the highest paid of all engineering disciplines and the most hotly pursued by industry and top graduate, business, medical, and law schools. A Georgia Tech ECE degree is a mark of distinction recognized and respected around the world.

I'm so confused by the hunter world's hatred of lungeing?!?!
Let me give some background before my question...
After competing as a Pony Clubber all through Junior High and High School and then competing in college, both times as a hunter jumper, I decided at 21 to just enjoy horses. I didn't compete or jump really for about 8 years because it had too much drama, competition, etc. and I just wanted to relax and ride. For eight years I just enjoyed horses, and then last summer and this summer I re-entered the world of competitions and showing. Last summer I just did local open pleasure and equitation classes, and then I trained all fall, winter, and spring to learn to be competitive in jumping again. This summer I started showing over fences. After not being in the hunter world for that long I have now discovered, I guess by sticking my foot in my mouth twice, that people really hate the lunge line.
1st time - I mentioned in passing that I lunge my horse if she hasn't been ridden for a week or so or during the weather change (summer to fall or winter to spring) because I like to see what her energy level is going to be like from the ground before I place my butt in the saddle (I don't really bounce that well off the ground these days). After this remark, I thought I would be bludgeoned on the spot. The reaction was over the top and basically implied that if I can't handle my horse I shouldn't ride her.
2nd time - So earlier today I was riding and minding my own business and a new boarder entered the ring and asked if her horse looked off to me. I stopped my horse, watched her go around a couple times and told her what I thought. She kept asking me all these questions on why I thought it was off and what she should do, and I told her that I sometimes lunge my mare, especially after the farrier has changed her shoeing or something, to see how she is moving from the ground since you can't see from their back, and, lo and behold, the look she shot me could have pierced my skin . She politely told me that she doesn't believe in lungeing. What? Even if it means seeing how your horse moves and whether it is off or not? Of course I didn't say this, I just politely started riding again because everyone is entitled to their opinions and I don't give mine unless asked.
So, after my explanation/rant, here is the question...
Is there something wrong with the lunge line that I don't know about? I don't use it that much, maybe once or twice a month, but why wouldn't you want to see how your horse is moving or try to check an energy level after time off. I don't get it?!?!

I worked out before, but after I smoked, my life got a bit busy and I have been inactive ever since. Since 03/15/2008 I was clean. Prior to 03/15/2008, the last time I smoked was in 2005. I think I can stall them as late as 04/07/2008. But I want to be very very sure that I will pass. I cannot afford losing this job because of this. I also smoke regular cigarette on a daily basis (6-8) and drink around a few cans of beer. What was I thinking? Please help. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Following up the 2011 performance by Drexel-product Chiddy Bang and the 2012 performance of Dev, hip-hop artist Childish Gambino will headline the Dragons' Midnight Madness celebration on Nov. 1.
At the event, Drexel will introduce their 2013-14 men's and women's basketball teams to a raucous and most likely slightly intoxicated crowd of students. This will be the student body's first opportunity to cheer on their school's finest hoops stars before the season begins later in the month.
The women's first home game in their season to defend the WNIT title that they brought to West Philadelphia last season will be Nov. 15 against Providence. The men will not see action at the DAC until Dec. 4 against Cleveland State.
The theme of last year's event was clear: revenge. This season, much of the focus will likely turn to the women's team and their 2013 WNIT title. That does not mean that the men's team will go without notice, though. Flying more under-the-radar than last season, the men still have the promise to ignite the student-body with the three-headed monster of Frantz Massenat, Damion Lee, and sixth-year senior Chris Fouch at the guard positions.
"Revenge of Revenge of the Dragon" is a bit convoluted for a marketing slogan, but the buzz surrounding the upcoming college basketball season is undeniable on Drexel's campus. Even after last season's disappointment, the hearts of the students are still emotionally invested in their beloved Blue and Gold.
Nov. 1 will be the first opportunity for Drexel to pack the DAC in 2013, and they most certainly will. Before the Dragons hit the floor and begin their season-long quest for success, it's the students' chance to hit the court to dance in the new year. The music of Childish Gambino will entertain the crowd and ring in a promising season for Drexel's men's and women's basketball teams.

The season has not even started, and everyone is whining, crying and bashing the Red Sox. This may a bridge the mngt. is building but collapsing, it is too early to tell. Last year was a bad season for Sox fans. It seems that some fans on this forum still has that grey cloud hanging over them. " The sun still shines behind a mask of clouds".
Last year there was club house issues, injuries and the manager was not the right choice. BC revamp by getting the coaching staff together first then went and pick the missing links. Cherington just spent 78 mill on 2 players that will not hurt the team. Ben still has money to spend to to fix up the pitching staff. This is the most concern part for me what moves will the Sox mngt. make with pitching? I am hoping he will pick up some young arms.

In the future, everyone stops aging at 25 – but has to work to earn extra time for the rest of their lives. When blue-collar worker Will (Timberlake) is given a hundred years by a suidical man he saves, he sets out to shake up the system
Interesting ideas and howling anger at the 1 percent drive the first half, but the Bonnie and Clyde stylings of the second feel a little rushed and strangely out of sync.

When you're cutting out – or cutting back on – the dairy in your diet, vegan milks make life so much easier. From moistening cereal to lightening coffee to whipping up baked goods, a bottle of yummy, vegan milk is a handy thing to have in the fridge.
The trouble with store-bought vegan milks is that they aren't always as natural as you'd probably like. Even organic non-dairy milks often use the thickener carageenan, which can exacerbate gastrointestinal problems because of its inflammatory properties. Don't let that convince you that going back to dairy is the way to avoid this ingredient. Carageenan isn't limited to non-dairy milks; it's a common thickening agent used in low-fat dairy products as well.
If you want to skip the mystery ingredients in so many store-bought vegan milks, your best – and most affordable – alternative is to make your own. Nut milks are super simple to make in your own kitchen, and cashew milk is particularly creamy and delicious. Even better? You only need three ingredients to make your own cashew milk: raw cashews, maple syrup, and water!
Because homemade nut milks don't have all of the preservatives and other additives that store-bought vegan milks have, they've got a shorter shelf life. You'll want to drink your homemade cashew milk within a week of making it.
On the next page, check out a recipe to make your very own organic cashew milk from scratch!

- Ends Sunday, September 23
COSMOPOLISDir. David Cronenberg, France, 2012, 108 min., R, 35mmOfficial Website
As 28-year old finance golden boy Eric Packer (Robert Pattinson) is chauffeured across midtown Manhattan to get a haircut at his father's old barber, his anxious eyes are glued to the yuan's exchange rate: it is mounting against all expectations, destroying Eric's bet against it. Meanwhile, an eruption of wild Occupy-esque activity unfolds in the city's streets. Petrified as the threats of the real world infringe upon his cloud of virtual convictions, his paranoia intensifies during the course of his 24-hour cross-town odyssey. Director David Cronenberg revisits subjects that fascinate him: how the organic and the psychological are inextricably intertwined, society's anxieties and phobias, and letting repressed impulses and paranoia run wild. COSMOPOLIS is a culmination of his masterpieces that addresses the alarming global financial crisis of today's world. Also starring Juliette Binoche, Samantha Morton, Paul Giamatti, Mathieu Amalric.
Diamond-hard and dazzlingly brilliant, David Cronenberg's film plays like a deeply perverse, darkly comic successor to Videodrome. – Bud Wilkins, SLANT MAGAZINE
Note: David Cronenberg's 1983 film VIDEODROME will screen Fri-Sat, Sept 14-15 at Midnight.

The afternoon was dark and gloomy. The rain kept on falling like the tears of Pangarap Village residents especially the bereaved ones.
"I don't know if I should say I am ok," says Teng, 30 years old, the common-law wife of Rommel Fortades when asked how she is doing. Rommel is 36 years old. Their only child will turn two in September this year.
Early morning of July 23, Rommel was in his usual routine of video and photo documenting the actions and events of Pangarap Village people. Little did he know that this passion of his would cost his life.
The residents of Pangarap Village staged a picket-vigil at the gate to protect the village from demolition by the Carmel Development Inc (CDI) headed by Greggy Araneta. A security guard shot him on the leg. Those who attempted to rescue him were also shot. Then there was another fatal shot to his head. Before he died he was able to pass on his video recorder and camera to another person. Those were his last shots. Precious actual documentation that caused his life.
Teng shared to the PCPR team that Rommel's passion is to let the people know the struggles of Pangarap Village residents. He has a facebook account KutoniGregAraneta. It is where he posts the pictures, videos, links and write-ups. On top of his casket are his pictures that reflect how youthful and energetic he was. Full of enthusiasm and full of life. He believed then that social networking is a potential means to spread to the world what is really happening on the ground. It was his ardent interest.
Not a few meters away from the residence of Rommel is the home of Sol Gomez, a tricycle driver who was also killed on the same morning of July 23. He is 44 years old, well known for his ever-ready help whenever he is sought for support. He dedicated his life serving the community. For many nights he was a source of inspiration at the vigil. He told his wife that he could not leave the vigil, because chances are, the CDI security guard might attack the vigil site. His fear turned into reality on that tragic day. He was shot and bullets pierced through his chest. All those who tried to help him were shot. It was reported that scores were hurt, but the most tragic was that two of residents got killed.
Two lives are too many. Rommel Fortades and Sol Gomez with what they did do not deserve bullets and violence. No, they were not accidentally shot, they were targets. They were there for a purpose: they supported a cause worth fighting for – a land where they can live with dignity. A community that has a sense of neighbourhood. An informed society aware about the reality being experienced by many.
The Security Guards of CDI must be accountable. They could be as poor as like many of us, they were paid to follow orders and those who pay them must be held responsible, too.
The families know by heart that they are fighting a "Goliath", a strong and powerful clan. They and the supporters of Pangarap Village hope that justice will be rendered.
[i] Pangarap Village covers 156 hectares of the 7,000-hectare Tala Estate (named after the state-operated leprosarium in the area), which was declared a government reservation in 1971 under Proclamation 843, issued by then President Marcos. In 1973, through Presidential Decree 293, Marcos designated the 156 hectares as settlement for low-income families and government employees, including members of the Armed Forces and the Presidential Security Group.
Many of the families have been living there since the 1970s. The place is now a thriving community of 40,000.
However, a dispute arose between the government and a private firm, Carmel Development, Inc., owned by the wealthy Araneta clan. CDI claims ownership of the estate through three Torrens titles and contests the presidential edicts.
Ironically, the CDI is now headed by Greggy Araneta, Marcos' son-in-law, who's trying hard to undo the probably one good thing his departed father-in-law did.
In 2002, the Solicitor General filed a petition at the Regional Trial Court to nullify the titles held by CDI and uphold PP 843 and PD 293. The RTC ruled in favor of the government. But in the subsequent appeals, both the Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court favored CDI.
Today the issue is pending at the SC after the government filed a motion for reconsideration.
While the case awaits final judgment, CDI has employed various means to induce or coerce the residents to give up their homes. Among the complaints are:
• CDI has engaged the services of a security agency whose guards, armed with M-16 and M-14 rifles, have been going around the village telling the residents to vacate their homes.
• Last March 15, the guards kept firing their weapons for an hour in broad daylight.
• The guards have allegedly demolished a number of houses in the middle of the night.
• At past midnight on April 28, the guards fired indiscriminately at residents who rushed to a house being demolished, wounding three, including a teenage boy and a barangay tanod.
Last May 10, Bayan Muna Rep. Neri Javier Colmenares delivered a privilege speech denouncing the violence and harassments by CDI. He urged the House of Representatives to support the Pangarap Village residents. The legislators agreed to send a delegation to assure the people of their support. Ocampo, S. (2011, May 28).
