Jealousy is no more than feeling alone against smiling enemies.

If you look at your life one way, there is always cause for alarm.

If you look at life one way, there is always cause for alarm.
When you love someone, all your saved-up wishes start coming out.
No object is mysterious. The mystery is in your eyes.
Nobody can be kinder than the narcissist while you react to life in his own terms.
Absence blots people out. We really have no absent friends.
Some people are molded by their admirations, others by their hostilities.
Art is one thing that can go on mattering once it has stopped hurting.
Autumn arrives in the early morning, but spring at the close of a winter day.

College Hockey:Badgers Earn Showdown With Terriers
MILWAUKEE — With his team's leading scorer half a world away, Wisconsin coach Jeff Sauer had sufficient reason to be concerned about where exactly any offensive production would come from in the Bank One Badger Hockey Showdown.
Turns out that wasn't too much of a problem. But the textbook for "Holding a Lead 101″ may soon become mandatory reading for the Badgers.
Wisconsin scored five goals in the first period, but watched Princeton slowly and deliberately chip away at the lead before the Badgers could run out the clock in a 6-3 victory at the Bradley Center on Friday.
The Badgers (12-9) will play Boston University in the championship game on Saturday. The Tigers (5-6-3) are matched up with North Dakota in the consolation game.
Despite leading scorer Dany Heatley being absent while playing for the Canadian team at the World Junior tournament in Russia, the Badgers got goals from all four offensive lines, two from third-line center Kent Davyduke.
"I'm concerned with scoring goals, I'm concerned with the effort and I'm concerned with the consistency," Sauer said, noting his worries before the game. "We're a good hockey team when I can use the four lines and jump them over the boards like we did tonight for the majority of the game.
"We're a better team when we get into a rhythm. That, more than anything, is what I was pleased with tonight. Our system will produce offensive opportunities for us if we can stay in a rhythm and don't have to end up killing penalties too much."
Said Badgers winger Dave Hergert: "We know [Heatley's] doing his thing, which if any of us had that opportunity, would [too]. We wanted to start off the second half of the season on the right foot. That was our main focus, was to get it going in the right direction."
The killer for Princeton, and essentially what ended up being the difference on the scoreboard (counting a Kevin Granato empty-net goal with 21.9 seconds left), was two shorthanded goals the Tigers allowed in the last minute of the first period to give the Badgers a 5-0 lead entering the first intermission.
"The difference between going into the second period down 3-0 and going in 5-0 to two shorthanded goals, I think that mounts a lot of frustration," said Princeton senior center Shane Campbell, who scored the Tigers' first goal, but after they had crawled into a huge hole.
And that has been a problem for Princeton of late. The Tigers have been outscored 12-1 in the first period in their last three games.
"It's kind of been our problem period these past few games, especially against UNH and RPI," said Tigers goaltender Nate Nomeland, who replaced starter Dave Stathos after the first period.
"We just came out, didn't play our game, didn't skate, didn't think and get down as a result of it. We seem to come back and play strong. I guess we can take some kind of confidence away going into tomorrow, but the fact that it's happened three times in a row, it's getting a little repetitive."
So what's the problem, you ask?
"If we knew, the problem would be solved," Nomeland said. "We seem to prepare well in the locker room, the attitude is great. I don't know if it's jitters or what, I really can't explain it. We just haven't been playing our game in the first period the past few weeks."
The shorthanded goals came less than 30 seconds apart late in the first, and both were two-on-one breaks. With 42.6 seconds left, Matt Murray took a pass from Andy Wheeler and beat Stathos. With 14.6 on the clock, Dave Hergert fed Davyduke for his second goal of the period.
"The two shorthanded goals were certainly the key to the game," Sauer said.
Princeton coach Len Quesnelle attributed the shorthanded goals partially to his players pressing forward a bit too much on the power play, already trailing 3-0.
"At the same time, I think that's just mental," Quesnelle said.
Despite the Badgers' first five-goal lead of the season, they proved they might have some work to do in advantage maintenance.
Princeton scored a pair of goals two minutes apart in the second period and cut the lead to two with Steve Slaton's second goal of the season at 2:07 of the third.
Slaton grabbed the rebound of a Tommy Colclough turnaround shot and put it past Wisconsin goaltender Graham Melanson to change the feel of the third period to something much more competitive.
That followed Campbell's goal at 13:09 — one that initially waved off by referee Tom Goddard but was ruled a goal after a video review — and Matt Maglione's bank shot that went in off the right post at 15:17 of the second period.
Said Quesnelle: "I thought we played well in the second and third periods."
But the Tigers had already allowed too much damage, the first two Wisconsin goals materializing off sloppy play in the Princeton end.
Dave Hergert got the Badgers on the board just 3:29 into the game, beating Stathos with a slap shot from the top of the right circle. But the play was set up when John Eichelberger's pass attempt hit a Tigers defenseman and bounced right to Hergert.
Midway through the first, Rene Bourque intercepted a errant clearing pass at the right point, skated in uncontested and roofed a backhanded shot, a play Sauer called a "major-league goal."
Wisconsin again got behind the Tigers' defense for its third goal. Erik Jensen carried the puck below the goal line to the right of the net and put a nice pass out front to Davyduke for an easy redirect.
After Stathos was pulled (he made only four saves on nine shots in the first period), Nomeland made several key saves to keep the Tigers in the game, albeit while still on life support.
He made 19 saves, but was more concerned about the team's result.
"It's kind of bittersweet," Nomeland said. "You want to play well when you get in there and you have to be happy with the individual results, but the main thing is the team result and we didn't get it done."

The presence of an estimated 11.5 million undocumented immigrants in the United States, of which an estimated 7.2 million are working, has become a flashpoint in the emerging national debate about immigration. Despite the fact that immigrants often accept jobs and working conditions that no citizens seem willing to undertake, this country has responded with hostile state initiatives and federal legislative efforts that not only fail to recognize their contributions, but also penalize many aspects of their daily existence.
When an employer, wittingly or unwittingly, hires an undocumented worker, a question arises regarding the extent to which labor and employment statutory protections extend to undocumented workers. In analyzing this question, courts are forced to address the interplay between immigration and employment statutes and their respective underlying policy rationales. Prior to 2002, courts confronting these issues developed a body of law that harmonized these two distinct areas of jurisprudence, finding, in many contexts, that undocumented workers were entitled to statutory protections in the workplace. This body of law shifted in 2002 when the United States Supreme Court decided Hoffman Plastic Compounds, Inc. v. NLRB and found that back-pay for undocumented workers under the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) was foreclosed by federal immigration policy. Since the Hoffman decision, lower courts have struggled to define the parameters of the case, and, while the jurisprudence is still evolving, many courts have limited Hoffman's reach and found workers entitled to seek legal remedies for workplace violations under a variety of statutes.

We live in an era where authentic sitcoms seem to be a thing of the past, but could the genre be revived from the father of all family comedies? Bill Cosby has made a deal with NBC to develop a half-hour comedy starring the actor, reports Deadline.
Bill Cosby was a huge figure in the 70s and 80s for adolescents. Every Saturday morning on the animated series, "Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids," also known as, "The Adventures of Fat Albert," youngsters were welcomed by Cosby's larger than life presence who hosted and lent his voice to a number of characters, including Fat Albert himself.
Cosby had a way with children, when he spoke they listened. Prior to the Saturday cartoon, "Fat Albert," he appeared on the children's television series, "The Electric Company," from 1971 to 1973 teaching reading skills to young kids.
When "The Cosby Show" premiered in September 1984, Bill Cosby carried his magical skills at capturing the attention of kids and families everywhere. Cosby played Dr. Heathcliff Huxtable, a warm and loving father and husband, who just happened to be hilarious. Cliff Huxtable was the Mike Brady for the 80s, but in lieu of the corny lectures Mr. Brady would deliver on "The Brady Bunch," Mr. Huxtable would incorporate the right amount of comedic tone into his parenting which often included the entire family acting out bits to convey the lesson.
The new comedy will be built around America's favorite dad, and now granddad, doing what he does best, offering his insight on marriage and parenthood. Cosby will be re-teaming with producer Tom Werner, whose company with Marcy Carsey produced "The Cosby Show." In addition to the series, Cosby is in the works to return the animated cartoon, "Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids," with writer-producer Tom Straw.
Cosby is currently touring with his latest stand-up comedy show titled, "Far From Finished," which premiered on Comedy Central on Nov.23 and features classic Cosby and his perspective on family life. This was the comedian's first special in 30 years, his last stand-up comedy film in 1983, "Bill Cosby: Himself," is an outstanding and timeless performance that is the essence of the funny family man.
It would be nice for a new generation to know Cosby - they should know Cosby, but NBC has not committed to making a pilot episode yet, stay tuned!

Postgame Notes
March 18, 2011
Tech is now 4-0 all-time against Jacksonville as the two schools were facing each other for the first time since the 2007 season.
Cydney Allen's grand slam was her team-leading 11th home run of the season. It marked her first career grand slam in a Tech uniform and the fifth one of the season for the Red Raiders. Raven Richardson hit Tech's last grand slam in game two of a doubleheader against New Mexico on March 9.
Allen's home run also moved Tech to 40 dingers for the year, snapping last year's school record total of 39.
The Red Raiders' five runs in the game moves the team one shy of matching the single-season school record of 258 that was set in 1997.
Kelsey Dennis went the full seven innings for the first time in a Tech uniform as her previous high was 6.2 innings against New Mexico on March 9. The junior college transfer has allowed only four runs in her last eight outings that covers 40.1 total innings.
Emily Bledsoe saw her career-high 13 game hitting streak come to an end as the junior finished 0-for-1 at the plate with two walks and a hit by pitch.

Women who have a usual source of care
(a place they usually go when they are sick) are more likely
to receive preventive care,1 to have access to
care (as indicated by use of a physician or emergency department,
or not delaying seeking care when needed),2 to
receive continuous care, and to have lower rates of hospitalization
and lower health care costs.3 In 2005, almost
90 percent of women reported having a usual source of care.
Women of all racial and ethnic groups were more likely than
men to have a usual source of care. Among women, non-Hispanic
Whites were most likely to report a usual source of care
(91.8 percent), followed by non-Hispanic Blacks (89.9 percent);
Hispanic women were least likely to report a usual source
of care (78.5 percent).
In 2005, 86.9 percent of women reported
an office-based source of care (such as a physicians office),
while fewer than 1 percent reported an emergency department
was their usual source of care. This varied by family income
level. Women with family incomes under 100 percent of the
Federal poverty level (FPL) were more likely to report that
hospital outpatient departments (1.5 percent) and emergency
departments (1.9 percent) were the places they usually go
when sick, and were more likely to have no usual source
of care (17.1 percent) than those with higher income levels.
Only 0.2 percent of women whose family incomes were at 300
percent or more of FPL named emergency departments as the
place they usually go when sick, and only 6.1 percent had
no usual source of care.

Lauren Jackson and Chris Muntz reign as Harrison County Homecoming Queen and King and they witnessed victories by both the Fillies and Breds over Nicholas County neighbors.
The Fillies won by a 50-37 margin for their first victory of the season.
The Lady Jackets were playing without two starters, juniors Shannon Bretz and Reesa Martin, and the Fillies took advantage of some inexperienced players to jump out to an 11-4 first quarter advantage.
Schneider's 450 leads Harrison County
Bowlers over Bourbon Co.
Senior Zach Schneider led the way as the Harrison County Thorobred bowlers defeated Bourbon County in both boys and girls matches by 6-1 scores. The two-game score, the best for the season by a Thorobred bowler, was rolled at Galactic Lanes on Monday night.
Andrew Wills had a two-game score of 406 to back up Schneider's hot games. Joseph Bush (363), James Snapp (358) and Gregory Dick (347) were the next three leading bowlers for Harrison County.
"The players just have to realize that we have to start with a sense of urgency," remarked Coach Kim Furnish after Saturday night's defeat at the hands of Dixie Heights. "We cannot come out and think we can play whenever we get ready."
This certainly was the issue in the game Saturday at the school off Dixie Highway. The Fillies fell behind 16-5 after the first quarter and though they gained ground throughout the rest of the game, they never got closer than six points.
Before I get into the article, I want to apologize to the cheerleaders at Harrison County. When I was going over the reasons that people should attend the games on the Hilltop I failed to mention the role that the cheerleaders play in the overall evening and in the community. Not only do they keep the crowd in the game, but they involve the younger girls in cheerleader camp to promote the future of HCHS cheer.
Jessica Reynolds and her staff do a great job with the young ladies, both on the squad and the future cheerleaders.
Tuesday night at Scott High was the latest in offensive frustration for the Harrison County Thorobreds as they fell to the Scott High Eagles, 54-50.
The Thorobreds were coming off a similar outing Saturday when they lost to Louisville Western, 56-52, in the Corky Cox Classic at LaRue County.
On Tuesday night, the Thorobreds were facing a 1-1 Eagles squad, which had lost their top seven players from last year's 19-10 team.
Asia Sims banked in a running 10-footer as the horn sounded Monday night to propel the Lady Colonels of Bourbon County to a 44-43 win over the Harrison County Fillies in Cynthiana.
The Fillies had regained the lead with seven seconds left on junior Morgan Florence's six-footer from the baseline following a Harrison County timeout in what was a set up play. Sims then raced unimpeded down the floor for the winning basket.
"I thought we wrestled well, but I am not happy with the results," said first-year head coach Luke Tucker. "We will have to continue to practice hard in order to improve."
Tucker's youthful grapplers took one championship and three runners up in the eight-team meet, which was won by Scott High of Covington.
Senior Eric Kiskaden was the lone winner for the Breds as he rolled through the 195 lb class to win the title.
The Harrison County Middle School eighth grade basketball team remained undefeated in Bluegrass Conference play as they won games with McNabb Middle School and Powell County.
Coach Jamie Cases' stalwarts started slowly on Thursday but poured on the coal in the second half to handily defeat McNabb 53-33.
Jovon Williams hit for 16 points to lead the Colts while Zach Pulliam was also in double figures with 12 points.

unearthed to date possess two very important features,
both of which conflict with the claims of the theory of
1. Stasis: Species
exhibit no changes throughout the course of their existence
on Earth. Whatever the structure they display when they
first appear in the fossil record, they have that same
structure when they finally disappear from it. Morphological
(shape) change is generally minor and follows no specific
2. Sudden Appearance:
No species ever emerges gradually through differentiation
from its alledged forebears; it appears suddenly and "fully
The significance of these two points is that living things
were created, with no process of evolution and no intermediate
stages to go through. They did not subsequently acquire
the characteristics they possess, but had them since the
moment of their creation.
But, as by this theory innumerable transitional forms
must have existed, why do we not find them embedded in
countless numbers in the crust of the earth?
then is not every geological formation and every stratum
full of such intermediate links? Geology assuredly does
not reveal any such finely graduated organic chain; and
this, perhaps, is the most obvious and serious objection
which can be urged against my theory.(Charles Darwin,
The Origin of Species, Oxford University Press, New York,
1998, pp. 140, 141, 227)
The fossil record offers not a single example of an "intermediate
form" that evolutionists can use as evidence, but
does provide millions of specimens that demonstrate the
invalidity of evolution. The most important of these are
"living fossils," of which living specimens
are in existence today. They can be seen from the fossil
record to have lived in differing geological periods,
and are proof of creation, since no difference exists
between the living things of hundreds of millions of years
ago and present-day specimens. Darwinists are helpless
in the face of this situation.
All the living creatures in the fossil record appear
intact and in their perfect forms. For instance, before
crocodiles and squirrels, there exist no fossils belonging
to any strange creature partly resembling a crocodile,
and in other parts to a squirrel or other living creatures.
Squirrels have always remained squirrels, and crocodiles
have always remained crocodiles. All these facts reveal
that the claim of the theory of evolution, that "Living
beings have gradually evolved over millions of years of
time" is simply a product of imagination.
The evolutionist Niles Eldredge admits that they have
no explanation to offer on the subject of living fossils,
which represent just one of the countless secrets evolution
is unable to unravel:
there seems to have been almost no change in any part
we can compare between the living organism and its fossilized
progenitors of the remote geological past. Living fossils
embody the theme of evolutionary stability to an extreme
degree.... We have not completely solved the riddle of
living to an extreme degree... We have not completely
solved the riddle of living fossils. (http://www. nwcreation.net/fossilsliving.html)
The "secret" that Niles Eldredge attempts to
unravel is actually a perfectly clear fact. Living fossils
prove that species did not undergo evolution, but were
created. However, Darwinists seek to ignore this fact
out of ideological concerns and persist in keeping alive
the dogmas of 150 years ago.
But the facts can now be determined much more clearly
than in Darwin's day. The number of people who understand
and choose to go along with the facts is rising, while
those who believe in fairy tales and never seek to question
them are ever fewer in number. Facts can no longer be
concealed and swept aside, as was the case in Darwin's
time. Genetics, microbiology, paleontology, geology and
all other branches of science constantly reveal a truth
that Darwin and the supporters of Darwinism never wanted
and perhaps never expectedthe fact of creation.
The irrational and unscientific claims that Darwinists
make, the frauds they perpetrate to deceive the public,
and the propaganda they employ to mislead people are only
signs of their despair. Subsequent generations will be
amazed at how people once believed in the Darwinist myth.
Because all scientific findings show the manifest fact
that evolution never happened, and that God created the
universe and all living things.
[God is] the Lord of the heavens
and the Earth and everything in between them, if you are
people with certainty. There is no deity but HimHe
gives life and causes to dieyour Lord and the Lord
of your forefathers, the previous peoples. Yet they play
around in doubt. (Surat ad-Dukhan, 7-9)
Among His signs is the creation
of the heavens and Earth and all the creatures He has
spread about in them. And He has the power to gather them
together whenever He wills. (Surat
ash-Shura, 29) This article is based on the works of Harun

Since the January 12th earthquake that struck Haiti, the world has come together to help raise money, food and supplies for the victims. Because Haiti and the Dominican Republic share an island, there is a lot of attention on the efforts of the Dominican people coming to the aid of their neighboring country. At a local level, there is much being done to let the Haitian people know that their eastern neighbors are with them and working towards their restructure, even those who have made their way from the middle of the Caribbean to the middle of Iowa.
Rosie Pérez, a 23 year-old Dominican American originally from the Bronx, NY has called Central Iowa home for the last six years. She currently works at a technology/software company in the East Village, after graduating from Grinnell College in 2008. She loves how cost effective it is to live in Des Moines and enjoy the cultural scene such as live music, dancing, and theater- especially those she can walk to within the downtown area. While she wishes the city had a better public transportation system, she continues to battle the harsh winter conditions while doing her part to contribute to the relief efforts in Haiti.
Examiner. com caught up with Rosie to get a local Latina's perspective on how we all have a role to play in helping the Haitian people overcome this horrible tragedy.
How was the DR affected by the earthquake that struck Haiti?
The Dominican community has come together full-force to help Haiti in this desperate time of need. The Red Cross has designated Santo Domingo's international airport (SDQ) as the main point of entry for resources, medical aid, and emergency care coming from all corners of the globe. There have been several hundred trucks full of supplies, doctors, and volunteers coming into Haiti from the Dominican Republic's ports, roads and airways.
Several community centers and museums (including El Centro Leon, a natural and cultural historical museum located in Santiago, DR co-run by my aunt), have put together large-scale resource and supply collection events, so that the entire Dominican community can donate anything and everything they can to the cause. As reported from the Listin Diario, one of the D.R.'s major newspapers, shortly after the earthquake, Dominican President Leonel Fernandez met with US President Barack Obama and leaders from all over the world to put together a short and long-term contingency plan to aid Haiti. The latest reports also reveal that in hospitals throughout the major cities in the Dominican Republic, patients who are not in critical condition were given medical leave in order to make room for the incoming earthquake victims.
Given that relations between Haiti and the DR have historically been volatile, how do you think this event will shape that relationship moving forward?
If by "historically", you are referring to the Dominican Republic having gained independence from Haiti on February 27th, 1844...Well, that was more than 150 years ago. History is history. Contrary to popular belief, the Dominican Republic and Haiti do get along and share numerous cultural traditions both old and new. There is collaboration and cooperation between both countries. Taking a walk through the capital, Santo Domingo reveals a slew of Haitian cultural centers and businesses; this is only one of several examples of the integration and assimilation of Haitian culture to the D.R.
How has the local Dominican community come together to provide aid to those affected by the quake?
Dominicans all over the US have contributed on many levels, whether donating to charities, organizing collection events, and following the lead of Dominican leadership on the island in aiding our Caribbean neighbor. I've donated to the Hope for Haiti charity event and have been spreading the word about various charities through social networks and word of mouth. I do hope that everyone's contributions continue to come in, to help bring Haiti up from the rubble.
As America looks to join efforts with the rest of the world in rebuilding Haiti, we can look at Rosie as an example of using what you have and know to make a difference.

Stable management advice
26 May 2011 15:09
Thieves will often stake out a target for several days or even weeks, watching the daily patterns at the yard and getting a feel for when it will be empty and at its most vulnerable. Simply by varying the times you visit, you can help make your yard less of a target.
Be your own private investigator
If you see anyone suspicious loitering on or around your property, make a detailed note of their description.
Likewise if you see any vehicles that arouse your suspicion, make a note of the make, model and licence plate. Recently, there have been increasing concerns about 'steal to order' tactics used by some horse thieves, so if you see anyone videoing your horses, report it to the police immediately.
It's also in your interests to build good relationships with neighbours and local residents so they can help you to keep an eye on the yard when you're not there. "Good neighbours are to be nurtured, especially if your horses are kept in an isolated area," says Gina. "Ask them to report suspicious circumstances and provide them with phone numbers to contact in an emergency.
"A common modus operandi for thieves is to park their vehicle some distance from their target and lead horses back," Gina explains. "So ask locals to keep an eye open for trailers or lorries parked in local gateways. You should also ensure they know that the sound of horses moving at night, away from their usual fields, is suspicious. "Finally," adds Gina, "always remember to thank neighbours if they do report anything to you, even if it turns out to be a false alarm."

RE: Vary your visits to the yard and keep an eye out
When you work full time it is difficult to vary the visits to the yard. There are 5 owners on our yard that all arrive at different times. In an ideal world of not working and having enough money to do what i wanted when i wanted then i could do as you suggest. Luckily everyone knows everyone in the village where the farm is so people notice things.

Dadonov clicks on last attempt in breakaway competition; Hyman on fire; Grabner wins fastest skater
Panthers rookie Evgeny Dadonov went to Raleigh only to be picked for the breakaway challenge. I thought he should've been in the skills challenge which is a combo event with all the offensive skills or even the fastest skating event.
Dadonov totally blew first two attempts to pull off spinning move and backhander on breakaway. His third attempt was better, but came through on his fourth try as he did a pretty snazzy move, dribbling with the puck spinning and flicking a behind-the-back, tween-the-legs shot past Carey Price!
Are you guys going to watch this? Versus has it live but the NHL station is replaying it all night starting at 9 pm. …
How about the game itself tomorrow? Interested in the new format?
Too bad Panthers got rid of Michael Grabner. He not only won the fastest skater competition but he's also got 15 goals, which would lead the Panthers. However, I was a witness to his preseason. It was horrible. He showed nothing in the preseason.

Duran Duran, the popular 1980s English pop music group best known for songs like "Hungry Like the Wolf," is taking its fan club – which is based in the Chicago area – to court. The fan club, which calls Glenview, Illinois its home, is being accused of breach of contract. The breach of contract is said to have occurred because the fan club did not give the music group the revenue it was promised, according to a CBS News report on Tuesday.
The lawsuit was filed Monday in Cook County Circuit Court. The lawsuit states that Duran Duran entered into a contract four years ago with Worldwide Fan Clubs Incorporated. Under that contract, the company allegedly promised it would create and manage a fan club. Additionally, Worldwide Fan Clubs Incorporated was supposed to warehouse and sell Duran Duran merchandise, as well as keep accurate records related to the fan club. Also, the firm was supposed to give Duran Duran 75 percent of all the profits while Worldwide Fan Clubs would keep a quarter of the profits. This allegedly didn't happen.
According to the music group, Worldwide Fan Clubs Incorporated did not keep accurate accounting records of the transactions and did not make payments as promised to Duran Duran. NBC News is reporting that the band is seeking a minimum of $40,000. Sources to the news report say that Worldwide Fan Clubs Incorporated could not be contacted for their side of the story.
The English rock band, Duran Duran, was formed in Birmingham, England in 1978. The group has had 21 songs in the Billboard Hot 100 record charts. The band has sold in excess of 100 million records. In their homeland, they have had 14 Top 10 single recordings. The group was formed by Nick Rhodes and John Taylor and later added Roger Taylor. Andy Taylor and Simon LeBon were also in the group for a period of time.

Everyone has their own description of what they think being in love feels like but truth be told being in love and loving someone is so much more than a feeling. The revelation about being in love and loving is it has more to do with what you are willing to experience with someone as opposed to being about your feelings toward them.
Butterflies in your stomach may not necessarily mean love. It's more associated with puppy love and infatuation. You can literally feel like you despise someone you love (hence why older couples tend to fight more often) but love is so much more than a feeling that the only way to describe it is to compare it to God's love.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8New International Version (NIV)
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
These are the fundamental truths about love which is totally out of line with how society tends to love in modern day. I remember hearing someone recently tell me that love has conditions after I explained to them that I believe in unconditional love and I wondered what she meant by that.
Today people are so misguided when it comes to real love. They do believe that love has conditions. They are not aware that its because of that mentality that there is so much divorce, disintegration of families, and fleeting friendships. What needs to be taught is how love is unconditional and how much God's love is the guide to how we should love each other.
So, what are your ideas about love? Do you love with conditions? Are your relationships lasting or do they disintegrate quickly? Its o.k. not to love everyone but when you do choose to love someone just remember that love is much more than just a feeling.

Everytime the Lightning carry a 3 goal lead into the Second Intermission an angel gets its wings.
Ben Bishop allowed 1 goal on 25 shots for the victory. He didn't have a ton of work after the First Period, but he made a handful of key saves over the course of the game to eventually allow the Lightning to stick this one in cruise control.
First Period
4:17 ANA Maroon (7), (Rakell, Palmieri)
Second Period
4:31 TB Stralman (4), (Boyle, Drouin)
5:55 TB Johnson (22), (Palat, Garrison)
18:05 TB Kucherov (22), (Stralman, Palat)
19:39 TB Stamkos (31), (Killorn, Sustr)
Third Period
Steven Stamkos and Alex Killorn were the game's first and third stars.
Both teams in this contest played a very loose First Period defensively and could've had a handful of goals. Anaheim had a chance to really grab the game by the throat with a two goal lead early when they got a 2-on-0 breakaway, but their failure to convert turned the game into a race to see who could make the adjustments first, defensively. The Lightning, emphatically, took the game by the throat in the middle frame outshooting the Ducks 20-5 and building the three goal lead that allowed them to glide through the last 20 minutes. I find the stress-free lifestyle that affords Lightning fans to be a very good thing.
Steven Stamkos had 6-7 scoring chances in this game and Victor Hedman, although silent offensively, ended up blocking 9 (9!) shots on defense after looking a little iffy on Anaheim's only marker. I'll say it again, when the Lightning's two best non-goalie players play like their best players, everything tends to flow from there.
At the 60 game mark, the Lightning have ended another successful 10-game segment with 78 points, meaning they have 6 insurance points headed into the 7th 10-game segment of the year. 12 in 10 do it again, as we officially move into the stretch run of the season and the final quarter of the regular year. On paper, they should be able to get off to a solid start to the segment as the final two games of the road trip are against opponents in Phoenix and Colorado that don't have the same level of quality as the first three opponents. But, you know, games are played on ice not on paper.
Nikita Nesterov had 1 shot and 3 hits in 16:57. He got caught flat footed on one breakaway allowed to the Ducks, but was otherwise efficient.

i might be into the leather thing if you offer a set of matching chaps. email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-20010610966144237102012-04-05T13:09:19.834-04:002012-04-05T13:09:19.834-04:00I think it does look very good. In regards to put...I think it does look very good.

In regards to putting it under a run of cable, what do you guys think of creating a type of ferrule that would be inserted into road bike style cable guides to transform them into mountain bike style cable stops?

We all know that locking to the top tube makes for the most unstable lean and takes up the most space. Bikes that fall while locked are usually locked to the top tube. Locking to the head tube or seat cluster works much better. Then you'll be covering everything in leather. Of course that brings the dogs. Once one pees on your bike they all have to.

Why go through the trouble of having a nice looking bike and then cover it up with a piece of hide, or synthetic corpse, or whatever. Protecting the top tube from a dent is one thing, but wrapping the entire tube so it "looks good", nope. If you are that vain about it, carry a parking cover with you, or just slow down when parking. Otherwise, repaint the bike after it has been well loved.bicycletorchhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-79619287487295762682012-04-05T02:48:11.291-04:002012-04-05T02:48:11.291-04:00I think the original one was the best!

Just kidding. I actually think that every last remaining animal on the planet should die so that we can finally get down to wrapping our stuff in human skin. (Can I get in trouble for this?)

I'm now reading Pazy's book about the semi-group operator. To prove the existence of the solution of KdV equation. He define the Hilbert space $H^s(\mathbb{R})$ $$ \Vert u\Vert_s=\left(\int(1+\xi)^s|\widehat{u}(\xi)|^2d\xi\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$$ the inner product $$(u,v)_s=\int(1+\xi)^s\widehat{u}(\xi)\overline{\widehat{v}}(\xi)d\xi)$$ where $\widehat{u}$ is the Fourier Transform of $u$. In his book, I have the following question,when $s\geq 3$:
1.If $u\in H^s(R)$,why $Du\in H^{s-1}(\mathbb{R})$? ($Du$ denote $\frac{d}{dx}$)
2.Why $Du\in L^{\infty}(\mathbb{R})$? And $ \Vert Du \Vert_{\infty}\leq C \Vert Du \Vert_{s-1}\leq C \Vert u \Vert_s$?

When Donald Trump was contemplating running for President many Conservatives dismissed it as a publicity stunt. Another element just hates NYers and North Easterners. Well many of these people have egg on their faces. Although he didn't run for President, Donald Trump has stayed active in politics. Putting his money where his mouth is, Donald Trump is now forming a Super PAC. It's goal is to defeat The Pharoanic regime.
Sick and tired of the United States looking like a "third world country" and outsiders coming here to "suck the blood out of this country," quirky developer and TV personality Donald Trump is eyeing a new super PAC to help defeat President Obama.
Presumably, the super PAC would also act to help Mitt Romney, who Trump has endorsed. Money shouldn't be an issue for the wealthy casino, golf course, resort and real estate developer. And neither should public relations, since Trump is a one-man publicity hound who even toyed with a presidential bid last year.
In an interview with Newsmax TV, Trump voiced anger at OPEC for seeking more than they deserve for oil, and Obama for letting infrastructure fade. But he also expressed high hopes that the nation could turn around, based on tapping home-grown energy sources.
Excerpts from the interview include:
–-"If I did one [super PAC] I would show how bad we're doing as a country, how disrespected we are as a country. I would show people from OPEC, 11 people sitting around a beautiful gold-encrusted table talking about how they are going to continue to rip off the United States."
–"My super PAC ads would be focused on how outside places and outside things are absolutely sucking the blood out of this country, and this country can't be great again unless it really starts to generate money."
Donald Trump is spot on. Foreign interests, particularly Islamic ones, are taking advantage of this nation thanks to Transnationalist in both parties that control Washington. It's time Americans wake up and realize our nation has been hijacked. I salute Donald Trump for setting up a Super PAC who not only will be dedicated to defeating Obama but also call out the foreign vultures and their agents who are destroying this nation.
I wish we had more people like Donald Trump in politics than people like Obama, McCain, Ms. Graham, the Bush family, Lieberman and the Clinton Crime Syndicate. Hopefully if Obama is defeated in November, Trump keeps the Super PAC around to keep the pressure on Republicans to serve American and not foreign interest. 238 years ago this nation's forefathers rebelled against a foreign king, it would be a shame to lose this nation to foreign masters. But focus #1, defeat the Pharaoh!

Hundreds of people were evacuated Tuesday morning from a Nassau County courthouse Tuesday after police received a telephone bomb threat, court officials said.
A Nassau County police spokesman said officers were dispatched to the courthouse after police received the threatening call at 11:01 a.m. Officers from the police department's Arson and Bomb Squad were also sent to the scene.
A court spokesman said court officers followed protocol and conducted "a thorough search" of the building.
Outside, the evacuees were ordered to clear the area in front of the building and were told to move away from the building and out of the parking lot. Court officers closed surrounding streets, including Supreme Court Drive and County Seat Drive, during the incident.
When the facility was deemed safe, the building reopened at 11:25 a.m.
Nassau County police officers remained on scene after the building reopened. Police said the investigation is ongoing.

Oliveri is a vocal leader, often barking instructions to defensemen. He grunts when making saves. He talks to himself. Because he accidentally left his iPod at home this trip, he's been forced to sit in the dorms at UMBC in silence trying to focus before the day's games. (The tryout process is a series of evaluated scrimmages that will continue Saturday and Sunday. For the goalies, each have been given equal playing time.)
Oliveri has been tutored by former Team USA and professional goaltender Brian Dougherty, so this type of show should come as no surprise. The outspoken Dougherty coached Oliveri on a seventh-grade travel team, and Oliveri said he tries to emulate Dougherty and Sal LoCascio, the three-time world champion U.S. goaltender and National Hall of Famer.
"Both are great leaders. I really try to match that," Oliveri
said. "If a defense doesn't have a leader behind them, it really
doesn't complete the unit. I try to be very vocal and be there for
the guys, and the saves will come. If I direct them where I want
the ball to be shot from and make it easier for myself, it will
help me out."

"P" St. Streetscape Project
11th Street to Centennial Mall
July 18, 2014 Construction Update
Asphalt patching and pavement markings along "P" Street have been substantially completed during the past two weeks. There will be the need to complete additional asphalt in the future as some work areas were not accessible due to concurrent work activities. During the week of July 21 the contractor will work on completing installation of the permanent pavement and crosswalk markings. While this work takes place the traffic on "P" Street and on the numbered streets may be restricted to one-lane during daytime, off-peak hours. Please take extra care while driving and walking in the area during this time. All businesses remain open and accessible during the work. Please continue to be aware of the pedestrian routing along "P" Street while accessing businesses.
The north side of "P" Street from 11th Street Centennial Mall is getting nearer to completion. The contractor is working on cleaning and opening up on-street parking in as many places as possible.
Work along the block from 12th to 13th Streets is progressing. A sidewalk corridor is in place which maintains access to all of the businesses. All of the street pavement is completed and crews continue to finish the sidewalk at the northwest corner of 13th Street.
Work along 13th Street as a part of the project is substantially complete. Work on the block from 13th Street to 14th Street has been taking place. The contractor has restored a permanent pedestrian corridor to all of the businesses along this block. The roadway pavement has been completed and work will begin on the underground utilities.
Work continues to take place on the north side of "P" Street from 14th Street to Centennial Mall, as well as along the east side of 14th Street north of "P" Street. The pedestrian corridor is in place and open to all businesses. The sidewalk access around this area will change throughout the coming weeks but businesses will remain open and accessible at all times. Storm sewer work is complete and light pole bases are being finished. The Lincoln Children's Museum curbside drop-off is temporarily located on the north side of "P" Street, between Centennial Mall and 16th Street. Please note the signs directing you to this location.

During my internship with the Commercial Service, I was involved in several projects of different complexity.
I was most impressed by the team and the working atmosphere. They taught me things I couldn't have learned in school, like leadership and how to adapt to changing environments, to people and to business in general.
My main assignments were in organizing an opening event for a company, the NATO Summit and a strategic market research.
I gained insights in the government's perspective on business and I interacted with a lot of US business people.
I would recommend this internship for anyone who wants to have a special experience, both on the personal and on the professional level.

Secrets of Success
My pain is not wasted
Friday, March 15, 2013
I praise and thank God for everything in my life. I mean I tell you the truth although I feel I am just about in agony I praise God any way for it, and do you know why? Hey, I look at it this way, I am not gonna waste this pain! I mean hey this is all in God's timing. I am not saying that God has given me this, right. But He can take it away and since He has not I must need this. Listen," And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose, that is in Romans8:28.
So what did I say? We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. Now what does THAT really mean any way, do you know? We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him who have been called according to His purpose. When pain comes what is the first thing people do, they pray for the pain to stop, and hey there is no harm in that. God wants us to pray for pain to stop sometimes, most times, but sometimes there are times for pain...I mean pain IS part of life. We don't want to get dirty, or feel uncomfortable. We rather not be stressed, or confront people in general we like to be happy and stay happy. We want to be healthy and not feel pain. Yet, who are we kidding, this is life and life has pain, heart ache and disappointment. The fact of the manner is we need it, what.... did I say that out loud? Yes, I NEED IT! The apostle Paul know that he needed the good and the bad. In the bible Paul wrote that God told him,"
My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." Then Paul said," Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me." I have had so much pain in my life of various kinds that this verse has become my Life Verse, you know what I mean? I mean this verse has significant meaning to my inner being, and that verse gives me power from God just thinking about it! The strength from the Lord comes from His grace which be bestows upon me! You see God's grace is enough for me to handle this pain which I am in. The fact is, is that God�s strength is made perfect in my weakness. In this unbearable pain which I find myself in tonight it has left my body weak. I have done all that I could do. I have prayed with my husband, i have spent the last six hours lying down watching a movie trying to distract myself from the pain. I have taken 4 tynolne with codeen, and 2 strong pain killers. Yet the pain persists. God tells me His strength is made perfect in my weakness. What I cannot do God can do. What God is saying to us when we read those words is this: if we submit our pain, out stress, our heart ache our whatever God is there for us and HE will heal it. I am made perfect in your weakness, he tells us. Let God show how prefect he can be in your pain.
Ok, now back to that other verse, �We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." So not only do we know that God's strength is made perfect in our weakness, we know that there is good in all things, so that means EVEN PAIN. No you say, no THAT can't be. Well, I am here to tell you that you are wrong. You see, I am here on this earth to grow closer to God in every way that I can. I want to be so close to God by the time that I die I want to breathe Him in; I want to feel Him completely wrapped around my body and spirit. I want God's thoughts to be my thoughts. I want His power (now don't get this wrong... I am not saying I want to be like God IN His power. I want to heal people. I want to lead people to God, I want THAT kind of power) I want to do whatever I can to grow in God's image from glory to glory. This is one thing the bible says about glory, God and us:"When we allow Christ to remove the veil something beautiful takes place. But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit" I may be wrong in this but here are my thoughts. When we are in pain we want to cover that pain with comfort. This could be seen as a veil. I remove the veil and allow myself to feel the pain until God Himself removes the pain. His grace enters my spirit, and His strength carries me to a spirit filled place to endure the pain or have it removed. My being is transformed into glory from the glory of experiencing the pain while I am inside Christ.
We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him who have been called according to His purpose. I know that this pain although intense and hard to bare is good because God is within that pain. God is working something GOOD out of my pain. I will tell you the truth since December I have been saying prayers that God helps me to grow in the fruit of patience while I am in pain. By and from the mercy of God I have grown in that area through the Spirit. My patience with pain has matured in me! All things God works good according to His purpose. I have used the pain which I have been suffering through to be used as the purpose to grow in Christ, to grow in the fruit of patience (the fruit of the Spirit). We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him who have been called according to His purpose. God put me on this earth to be His servant. I was born for a purpose and I live each day and try my best to seek God's will and live according to it.
This pain is hard to bear, this pain, what can I say... I wish that it was not here in my body. But you know what IS here? God. God is here with me in my pain!! My God has made good out of my pain. I am stronger in Christ as the result of my pain. My friends and relatives know that I have stood in this pain yet have found peace within my life. They know that if I would not have told them about my pain they still would have seen joyful, laughter within my words, spirit, and actions. Such things can only be done through God, but do you know what else? Such things can only happen through a spiritual growth through pain and suffering while clinging to God. It can only be as such through God. Spiritual growth will never be the result of a perfect life. A happy peaceful life with no setbacks, with no suffering, and no hardships or trails. NO spiritual growth will never be the result of a perfect life. But pain, hardships, trials and tribulations, what can a life full of such bring one centered in Christ? Such a life can bring you a victorious life through Christ when you abide in God through each trail and tribulation. Trust me, I know, I have LIVED through some stuff, and it was God who saw me through it all.
Hey, guess what? MY PAIN IS GONE!!!!! God took the pain away!!!! Thank you God Thank you God THANK YOU GOD!!!!!!!
And God said, �My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." Then Paul said," Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."

Dear Shelly,
I just noticed you had posted this blog and decided to come check it out.
I know you were up late writing this or posting it.
I am encouraged by your attitude and your reliance on God.
I have another verse to share with you my sister. It is one that I read in our pastor's weekly email tonight.
It was written by David after he had just experienced one of the lowest points in his life.
The verse is I Samuel 30:6. "But David found strength in His Lord." This verse is for you too. You can find strength in your Lord. Strength to continue with your life in spite of the pain and other trials you face; strength to stand up under the pressure. God's strength is always there when you need it.
Praise the Lord He has relieved you of your pain. May you be able to get a good night's sleep and rest in Him.
Keep on praying and praising the Lord and He will bless you!
Love you,

Tarte LipSurgence Lip Tint ($24) claims to be able to increase moisture levels in your lips by 6000% within 28 days. SIX THOUSAND PERCENT??!?!! That makes us think that our lips would absolutely explode clear off our faces. And then we realized how absolutely ridiculous it was of us to think that way. So we followed that up by buying an absolutely ridiculous quantity of these natural lip tints so we could have some absolutely bodacious lips.

Michael Muhney has announced, through his Twitter account, that he won't be returning to the cast of 'The Young and the Restless'. That critical piece of information not only puts to rest what was an open question, it also simultaneously proves that some personality types were wrong.
Muhney used social media to tell his fans that he had just received an official call (as of August 13, 2014), that things had gotten close, but that he will not be returning to the role of 'Adam Newman' on CBS' daytime drama. He also noted that he had been hopeful for a return, but is now looking forward to future projects.
His words bring an official end to a nearly eight-month long real-life storyline. They also serve to totally vindicate every reasonable person who didn't jump overboard every time this unresolved situation was mentioned.
Overly-passionate individuals crossed the line of social media decency on countless occasions since Muhney was unexpectedly dismissed by executive producer Jill Farren Phelps last December. While that part of the story was merely representative of a sub-culture, it was also reflective of how access to the internet can be misused.
Highly-inappropriate behavior, exhibited by claimed "fans" in response to anyone who didn't agree with their now-discredited logic, had nothing to do with the fact that a terrifically-talented actor lost his job for unknown reasons. It was always accurate to wonder how YR might respond.
Meanwhile, Muhney used the power of social media to directly interact with and provide information to his fan base. That smart approach is widely practiced by a surging number of entertainers in an increasingly connected world.
For reasons that became rather revealing, certain deeply aggressive personality types chose to use Muhney's situation to attack those who still enjoyed watching daytime's number one drama, or others who correctly speculated that his YR job status wasn't finalized. That negative behavior was countered and overcome by the vast majority of balanced souls who appreciate Muhney's talent, YR or the soap opera genre in general.
This entire story was news. That's why it was written about (and read) to such a great extent. It was fair to speculate about when, or if, Muhney might return because no definitive answer had been provided by anyone who was actually connected to the situation. Now that an answer has been given this story is over.
The public may never know why Muhney was let go, or maybe that information will be confirmed some day as well. Regardless, people with positive intentions learned many valuable lessons along the way.
