I finally found "The One" after trying on over 100 dresses and I'm so happy with it. It is Pearl in color, which was so incredibly flattering for any skin tone. It's corset back is beautiful when walking down the aisle. I added a sweetheart neckline, but a very modest one, so the girls are in place. The ruching cuts a lovely line and the tucks on the train are stunning when spread out. I wore a headband as a belt, but that will not be included in the sale of the dress. I love love love this dress and I really hope it will make someone else as happy as I am.
- Alterations: The dress was shortened to fit by 5'3" frame. I had them add a very conservative Sweetheart neckline. There are also size D cups sewn in. Because the dress is corset style, there was one moderate alteration to the waist, which brought it in about an inch total, but no other major alterations were made.
- Preservation Method: The dress has not been cleaned yet. There are some stains on the train from a night of dancing, but the front of the gown is in perfect condition. The bustle broke (as they ALWAYS do!) but that is a quick fix that you would want to make on your own anyway depending on your shoe height. I have more photos, including close-ups of the train. I would be happy to have the item dry cleaned in advance of selling as well.
- Terms of Sale: All Sales Final
- Original Owner:
- Has Original Receipt:
- Location: Chicago, IL
- Will Ship to: Anywhere at Buyer Expense
- Payment Methods Accepted: Escrow.com
Please read our BUYER'S GUIDE before purchasing a dress online.

Home brewing is an ancient practice that dates back years before Christ. Homemade beer was originally enjoyed by ancient people until the Middle Ages when beer was produced on a large scale for commercial distribution.
Brewing beers at home was officially allowed in 1978, when federal taxation was lifted for beer brewed for personal use. Since then, home brewing ingredients and beer kits suppliers began to flourish. Nowadays, with the discovery of new beer flavorings, colors and body, more new recipes have emerged and certainly there will be more things to expect in the world of beers.
Making your own beer at home is a great opportunity to experiment with beer ingredients and come up with inventive natural beer recipes with no added preservatives. This can be both an exciting and a challenging experience for home brewers.
You will actually have a lot of advantages in making a homemade beer. One of the exciting advantages is the chance to discover new flavors. While there are step-by-step brewing instructions that usually come with beer kits, you may want to experiment on some processes too. For instance, boiling the wort at a certain temperature or above what is required for a specific style of beer can bring out a new flavor with your malt.
Also, it is possible to discover other characteristics of the malt in your beer including the color, aroma and alcohol content when you try out different combinations. But you will need to get some tips and advice from a seasoned home brewer when doing this, as overheating of ingredients such as herbs and flower essences can also adversely affect your beer's overall taste.
In addition to hops, enhancing a brew using herbs and spices has also become possible with the emergence of commercial beers that contain a variety of innovative ingredients such peppers, hazelnuts, goji berries, schisandra and wormwood. However, before experimenting with other herbs and spices, it is a good idea to talk with someone who knows more about herbs and flowers.
These are just some of the advantages of home brewing. With a little creativity, you can actually come up with your own world-class homemade beer by mixing classic and non-traditional brewing techniques. This is the beauty of brewing your own beer.

On Monday's The Bachelorette (episode 4), Desiree and her remaining 13 men will travel to Atlantic City, NJ for a lot of fun and friendly competition.
On her first solo date, Desiree takes Brad, 27, on a romantic date to the boardwalk and amusement park. This is fitting, because she often says she's just looking for a guy who can let loose and have fun. The couple ends their night at a majestic sandcastle and nearby historic lighthouse for wine and a possible date rose.
The next date is for Desiree and the group of men, who will compete, in front of a live audience, for the title of "Mr. America." The guys will do handstands and show off other talents, share their ripped bodies in the swimsuit competition and answer questions in an attempt to win the coveted prize.
In her final solo date, the bachelorette gets to share a heartwarming evening with James, 27, as they view the ruins of Superstorm Sandy and meet a couple who has lost their home to the hurricane. Instead of eating a romantic dinner as planned, Desiree and James offer to let this couple take their place as they celebrate their wedding anniversary. Country singer Darius Rucker performs a surprise concert.
Which two men will Desiree eliminate as she continues her journey to find love? Watch the drama unfold on Monday, June 17 (8pm ET) on ABC.

Words and Music by Harry M Woods
Recorded in 1925 by Cliff Edwards and in 1926 by the Ipana Troubadors
'cause when I'm paddlin' Madelin' home
Gee! When I'm paddlin' Madelin' home
First I drift with the tide
Then pull for the shore
I hug her and kiss her
And paddle some more.
The I keep paddlin' Madelin' home
Until I find a spot where we're alone
Oh! She never says "No" so I kiss her and go
Paddlin' Madelin', sweet, sweet Madelin'
Paddlin' Madelin' home!

This week in Denver I had the privilege of viewing Oz the Great and Powerful with Moose. It was a phenomenal movie, filled with the wonders and amazing sights that can only be seen using today's technology. Watching this in 3D was worthwhile as well, one scene in particular. Costumes, scenery and story all come together to make an amazing movie. James Franco, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz, Michelle Williams and Zach Braff help to complete this all-star cast and bring life to 1 of the 15 books … [Read more...]
Dead Man Down- Who knew?
I saw the original Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. While it was okay, I was not totally impressed. I walked into this movie not knowing exactly what to expect- other than Colin Farrell, Terrence Howard and gunfire. Two different stories collide and intertwine in a story of romance and revenge. Unexpected alliances are formed and the underground comes up for a breath while this tale grips you and takes you on a ride you will not forget. Victor (Farrell) is Alphonse's (Howard's) right-hand man. … [Read more...]
Catch Me if you Can in Denver!
Catch me if you can is the true, if slightly embellished story of Frank Abignale Jr. For those of you alive during the late 1960's, you probably remember seeing it on the news, reading about it in newspapers, etc. I did not have the fortune to be alive during that time- but when the Leonardo DiCaprio/Tom Hanks version came out several years ago on the big screen, I did research some of his exploits purely out of curiosity. He did in fact steal close to 2 million dollars before he was … [Read more...]

Denver Bacon Company- A new Masterpiece!
Who loves bacon?… Okay… better question- who does NOT love bacon? Bacon is one of those necessary evils. You love to love it but at the same time realize that it is not something you should eat at every meal, right? That being said, when you do eat that wonderful fruit of the swine, shouldn't you make sure it is the highest quality, best tasting bacon you can buy?

The Book of Mormon hits Ellie Caulkins Opera House- Denver
The Book Of Mormon has finally arrived in Denver! It's the moment so many of us have been waiting for, counting down to and dreaming about. As someone who has a mostly Mormon family this show was bound to be interesting for me, and to make it more interesting I took my mom (who was raised in a strict Mormon family). We really enjoyed this show, it was hilarious and offensive all wrapped up into a joyous little bundle… just as I expected it to be. When you go to a show that is written by the … [Read more...]

Motorola S9-HD vs S9 - My take
The Motorola S9-HD represent some real improvements over the S9 but probably do not represent the best choice for users of the P2 & T10.
Motorola S9-HD improvements of over the S9 [subjective statements are in brackets]
- The new design earplugs result in a very substaintial gain in bass output. If the S9-HD's earplugs are placed on the S9, the improvement transfers to the S9. Thus, as you might've guess, the earplugs are exchangable.
- The BT antenna placement and/or design is definately improved. The S9-HD is more resistant signal drop out. It is almost but not quite as resistant to drop out as the best BT headphones I've used.
- SRS WOW HD added and comes in two flavors [mild and wild]. More on this later.
- The buttons are more proud of the unit and are easier to find.
- The soft-touch plastic coating on the buttons is gone and replaced by a shiny plastic. No concerns about the coating flaking off with time and use.
- The rubber inner surface is larger and has a higher grip.
Motorola S9 advantages of over the S9-HD [subjective statements are in brackets]
- No SRS WOW HD. For purists, it's a distraction. [The more aggressive setting on the S9-HD I will refer to as "Wild" is over the top for me. The "mild" setting is easier to live with day to day.]
- Older, more open earplug design. [the resulting output is more balanced, but high happy on devices that do not allow you to EQ the source. In my opinion, the S9 is a better choice for the P2 & T10 mp3 players. Either the old or the new can be made to work with the T9B which is more correctable with it's EQ'd BT A2DP abilities.
Otherwise, the two headphones are very much the same. The same basic design and what appears to be the same speakers (with digital enhancements). I personally do like the all black design of the S9-HD better.
The S9-HD comes off as a SRS WOW Sony DR-BT50 in general tonal qualities. Both are bass heavy and need to be device EQ'd to reach their potential. Once this is done (if it can be done), both headphones are really great choices. To be redundant, I think the S9s just work better with the Samsung T10 and P2 devices since their equalizers are disabled while A2DP audio streaming. Otherwise, the S9-HD is a worthwhile improvement.
|[Remove Advertisement]
I forgot something
While I could not give a solid recommendation of the S9-HD for use with the P2 & T10, the bass response of the headphone is good and would be a excellent companion to the Samsung T9B or Sony NWZ-A829 players. Keep in mind you'll need to tweak it to regain the suppressed mid and highs. I'd also tone down the SRS WOW HD effect. The exaggerated setting seems to be the default condition. There are also other mp3 players and devices where the S9-HD would be a decent choice.
The S9-HD headphones buttons are more resistant to water than the S9's buttons. The only problem is everytime I power cycle the P2 I have to reconnect the S9-HD and enter the code again... then a connection failed message comes up and then it connects.
I am using firmware US 2.15.
Turn on headset first then P2 or P2 bluetooth.
Turn off P2 or PT Bluetooth first then turn off the Headset
It seems to work for my P2 and my S9-HD

My Annualized Dividend Income as of the end of December increased to $7,014 from $6,827 over the past month. This means my dividend stocks will pay $7,014 in dividends over the next 12 months. This portfolio of stocks has a current yield of 4.60%.
All my dividend distributions from the month went toward paying down debt. The stock market was up a little for the month and we continue to see companies increasing their dividends this year.
Most of my stocks are held in my Vanguard Brokerage account and the rest are DRIPs. I am keeping track of the amount of income I could receive once I retire or choose to receive the dividends in cash.
I will post my Top 20 Stock Holdings on Thursday.

Gardening Articles: Edibles :: Vegetables
Trellising Tomato Plants
by National Gardening Association Editors
Trellising can be creative and attractive, but it can also be a lot of work.
Advantages of Trellising:
- Trellises require little space, and tomatoes can be planted closer together.
- The fruit ripens earlier.
Disadvantages of Trellising:
- It's necessary to build a support system, using slats of wood, wire-mesh fencing, pipes or poles and wire.
- You'll spend more time pruning and training the plants - at least some time each week.
- You'll harvest fewer tomatoes per plant because some pruning will be necessary.
- Trellised tomatoes are more susceptible to sun-scald because they get less shade from leafy growth.
How to Trellis
A good trellising system uses four-foot stakes placed at five-foot intervals down the row with three wires running horizontally a foot apart between them.
As the tomatoes start to grow, train them so their branches interweave around and through the wires. Train two to three main stems per plant, and keep all the other side shoots picked off. (These shoots, which sprout from the crotch where the branches grow from the main stem, are called "suckers.") Tie some of the stems to the wires for extra support.
When the tallest branch grows beyond the top wire, cut it off. This stops the branch from growing any higher. If it grows too far over the upper wire, it will break off anyway.

UCLA WVB on Facebook | UCLA WVB on Twitter | 2011 Media Guide
LEXINGTON, Ky. - Sophomore Kelly Reeves has earned her second Player of the Week honor in as many days, receiving AVCA National Player of the Week accolades on Tuesday. She becomes just the sixth Bruin ever to be named National POW.
Reeves is the first UCLA player to earn the award since Lauren Cook on Sept. 15, 2009 and joins an illustrious list that includes Nana Meriwether (2006), Nellie Spicer (2005), Kristee Porter (1998) and Annett Buckner (1994).
Reeves, who was named the Pac-12 Conference's Defensive Player of the Week on Monday, helped the Bruins to wins over #2 Stanford and #1 California last weekend.
Reeves had a pair of double-doubles, recording a new career high with 19 digs against the Cardinal and adding 14 digs versus the Golden Bears. On Friday, she added 17 kills, swinging at a .300 hitting percentage and tallying a block for 17.5 points. Reeves had four digs in both the first and second sets and seven in the fourth. Offensively, she produced nine of her 17 kills in the third set with no errors in 15 attempts.
Against Cal on Saturday, Reeves posted 14 kills to go along with her 14 digs, hitting .444 with only two errors in 27 swings. She spread out her digs and kills evenly throughout the four sets, notching three digs and three kills in the first, four digs and four kills in the second, four digs and five kills in the third and three digs and two kills in the fourth.
Reeves, who has seven double-figure digs matches this season and four double-figure kills contests, is second on the team with 2.77 digs per set and 2.43 kills per set.
The Bruins, who climbed to second in this week's AVCA Top 25 poll, will travel to the two newest Pac-12 teams this weekend, taking on Utah on Friday at 6 p.m. PT and Colorado on Sunday at 1 p.m. PT.

ROSEMONT, Ill. (AP) - When Salim Stoudamire asked Channing Frye if he wanted to grab lunch one day last fall, the Arizona center was, to be perfectly honest, stunned.
Stoudamire didn't do lunch with his teammates. Or anything else, for that matter. He wasn't one for small talk. You wouldn't find him hanging out in someone's dorm room or apartment, playing video games. And if you saw some of the Wildcats around town, there was no reason to look for Stoudamire because he wouldn't be with them.
He was a loner, and he liked it that way.
``I'm an independent person,'' he said Friday. ``But I knew it was important for me to open up to my teammates so they could develop trust in me and I could develop trust in them.''
As complex personally as he is gifted athletically, Stoudamire realized he needed an attitude adjustment if Arizona was going to live up to its potential. The change hasn't been easy, but Stoudamire has blossomed as a person and a teammate, and he's got the now-tightknit Wildcats where they always thought they should be.
The third-seeded Wildcats (30-6) will play top-seeded Illinois (35-1) on Saturday night in the Chicago Regional, hoping to earn their first trip to the Final Four since 2001.
``I've played on a lot of teams, but this is by far the best chemistry-ed team I think I've ever been on,'' Frye said. ``I don't know if that's the right word, but you can mix and match every single person on the team and no one would have a problem with each other.
``Everyone just likes each other's company,'' Frye said, ``and every day it's very interesting.''
There was never any questioning of Stoudamire's talent. He comes from Portland's first family of basketball; his father and two uncles played at Portland State, brother Antoine played at Georgetown and Oregon, and cousin Damon is now playing for the Trail Blazers after an All-American career at Arizona.
Salim Stoudamire is the career leading scorer in Oregon Class 4A history, with 2,219 points. He leads the nation with 51 percent shooting from 3-point range, and he made an off-balance dazzler with Daniel Bobik in his face to lift Arizona to a 79-78 victory over Oklahoma State on Thursday night.
``That dude's like a video game,'' Illinois guard Dee Brown said. ``He shoots from anywhere, anyplace.''
But his attitude? Well, that was something else.
An intensely private person, he never bonded with his teammates. When coach Lute Olson criticized him, Stoudamire would internalize it, growing even more remote. If he was struggling with his shot, he couldn't let it go and focus on defense or helping his teammates. He'd sulk and mope, making his struggles even worse.
``He had all the skill and ability just as well last year,'' Mustafa Shakur said. ``But sometimes he let things get to him and didn't really take things the right way as far as criticism and things like that coming from Coach. This year, he's really come around.''
It started after last year's tournament, when the Wildcats finished a disappointing 20-10 season with a loss to Seton Hall in the first round. Arizona has been to three Final Fours since 1994, and Stoudamire and Frye wanted to keep that tradition going. To do that, though, the Wildcats needed leadership.
And that meant Stoudamire would have to reach out to his teammates, starting with that lunch invitation to Frye.
``I was like, `Are you joking?' Because Salim usually never goes out to eat,'' Frye said. ``After that, we'd always go out to lunch. Once a month, once a week or something. Just talk about basketball, watch games. We got to learn a lot about each other. Salim's like my brother now.''
Said Olson, ``He's involved in leadership, making sure guys going bowling together, having a tailgate party before football games. The Arizona program has always been a family program ... and it was important Salim understood what the responsibility of a senior is in the program. Last year, frankly, as a junior he wasn't ready for that.''
Stoudamire has had to work at his transformation, though. Olson benched him for Arizona's game at Marquette in December because he didn't like Stoudamire's attitude after he was held to one shot by Utah's box-and-one defense the previous game.
Instead of pouting, though, Stoudamire was his teammates' biggest cheerleader. Since then, he's been a model player. He leads Arizona in scoring, has failed to reach double figures in only four games, and has won three games for the Wildcats on last-second shots.
He's also made his teammates better. Overlooked because of his late-game heroics Thursday night were his seven assists.
``Salim will tell you he was taking Coach's criticism wrong,'' Shakur said. ``His criticism was to push him and make him a better player. But (Salim) took it in negative ways as kind of a personal thing, and it wasn't. He understands that right now and it's made him a better player.''
More importantly, he's become a better person.
``I remember someone asked me, what do you want to be remembered as, as far as Arizona, as far as basketball,'' Stoudamire said. ``I was like, I don't care about basketball. I just want to be remembered as a good person.''

LOS ANGELES, Calif.—The Arizona State men's swimming and diving team was running on all cylinders as they topped the Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners, 162-127 in a dual meet hosted by UCLA.
Competing in its first dual match of the season, the women's swimming and diving team fell in a closely contested match-up with the 24th ranked Bruins, 132-168. Several of the women's swimmers met the zone B qualifying time, including sophomore Shannon Landgrebe who finished first in the 200 free with a time of 1:49:12.
In diving, freshman Hailey Casper won the women's 3-meter diving with an overall score of 317.70, while junior All-American Elina Eggers won the 1-meter diving with a score of 288.45.
The ASU men took home the top spot in seven events with freshman Hayden Thomas once again excelling in the distance free. Thomas, who once again won the 500 free, also finished first in the 1000 free by over three seconds.
The men's diving team cruised, facing no competition. Riley McCormick dove lights out, on the 3-meter dive, scoring a 384.98 overall.
The Sun Devil men were also dominant in the 200 Medley relay, finishing in both first and second place. The young team, which has 14 freshmen on its roster, faces a tough test against USC tomorrow.

Haru, a premier name in modern Japanese cuisine, has opened its NEW flagship restaurant: Haru Times Square. Located just steps up the street from our original home in the Theater District, the new Haru Times Square. Haru has a total of 6 locations throughout Manhattan, the food and drinks continue to be really good.
Haru invited some of us media folks to try their menu and their signature seasonal cocktail, Red Lotus. The tasting menu included Chicken Yakitori, fish tacos, shrimp tempura, king crab dumplings, sushi, grilled spicy garlic shrimp (not spicy at all), chicken teriyaki, and specialty rolls. My favorites were the tempura, grilled shrimp, 6/8 of the assorted sushi, fish tacos and the dumplings. The Red Lotus cocktail was amazing here's the recipe:
2 oz. peach vodka
1 oz. cranberry juice
3 lychees
1 lime wedge
1 lychee for garnish
Muddle lychees and shake with vodka, juice and syrup, squeeze in some lime, drop the wedge in and shake and strain into a chilled cocktail glass, garnish the drink with lychee for soothing effect.
For all that already have eaten at Haru, the times square location does not break tradition, for those who have not experience Haru, take any day of the week and visit anyone of their locations, I recommend it. By the way, have multiple Red Lotus, TRUST ME! Haru Times Square is located on 229 West 43rd Street, Unit 221, New York. Prices for food and drinks work great for anyone who's on a budget. Haru is good for family, gatherings, after work drinks and food, but i wont recommend for a first and or second date.

The District 20 race in Florida's House of Representatives is an unusual rematch of candidates from 1998. Democrat incumbent Doug Wiles again faces a challenge from Republican Karen Stern.
Stern, a former school board member and chairman, comes into this race with more knowledge of the issues and an enhanced ability to articulate her positions on them.
Wiles, who was first elected to his seat in 1996, has grown too. He's seemed to have settled into a methodical, moderate approach to government in which he sees legislation for what it really is -- beyond smokescreens -- and works toward bi-partisan solutions to the district's problems and needs.
Neither candidate may appreciate this assessment, but the two aren't very far apart in their most basic attributes and goals for the people of District 20 and the state.
There's no doubt that both have the very best interest of their constituents at heart. Both are smart, competent and popular candidates.
Both are strong supporters of the need for the very best education for our children. Both show real concern for our seniors -- especially in the area of their health and ability to economically access prescription drugs.
Here's a test.
The following is a list of the top five things one of the candidates told The Record he/she would do better or differently if elected: Be responsive to the community, protect the elderly from exploitation, maintain safe schools, keep violent criminals behind bars and be a strong voice in Tallahassee.
The other gave these priorities: Increase teacher salaries, mandatory criminal background checks, reduce the intangibles tax, campaign finance reform, ban perpetrators of domestic violence from gun ownership.
Who said what?
Their differences lie in the details -- where the devil usually resides. Even these will translate into so much less than a campaign pledge once thrown into the real picture of how our Legislature works -- being one voice among 120.
There are the partisan planks used more to delineate party philosophies and exaggerate differences than draw real comparisons of the people behind the politicians: vouchers, tort reform, affirmative action -- Tax-And-Spend Democrats, Give-To-The-Rich Republicans.
What this race boils down to is which candidate -- which person -- is best able to effect the most change for the people of District 20. And who do we trust with our vote?
There's been some nasty campaigning going on this last week of the race. We were saddened and embarrassed by a flier mailed out pointing voters to a Web site -- www.whatdougdid.com. The site represents a surly, spurious attempt at ''highlighting'' Wiles' voting record. It offers conclusions such as these: ''Doug Wiles is a champion of violent criminals... Doug Wiles believes criminals should roam the streets... Doug Wiles doesn't care about taxpayers' money.''
The Web site was posted by the Republican Party of Florida and OK'd by Ms. Stern. It has since been removed, but if you're still looking for a difference in the candidates or party leadership...
Wiles has proven a few things to us over the past four years. First, he's is one of the hardest working lawmakers we've dealt with over time. He is among the more knowledgable members of our delegation on bills that come before the House. He is an accessible legislator. He works the job 12 months a year -- not the crowds and contributors. His word is good.
And as much as his opponents have tried to brand him as a partisan pawn of the Democratic Party, he has not allowed it to take the low road against Ms. Stern.
He's an odd breed of politician who can talk of ''public service'' with a straight face.
He should be returned to Tallahassee to continue his work.

In territorial days, Alaskans could be one of three places…Inside (in Alaska), Outside (anywhere else), or Morningside (Morningside Hospital).
Bennett Blackjack lived a remarkable life. He was the son of the first Eskimo heroine of arctic exploration, Ada Blackjack, and brother of respected native leader Billy Blackjack Johnson.
As a child, Bennett suffered from spinal meningitis and tuberculosis. Between 1927-37 he lived at the Jesse Lee Home in Seward while his mother was recovering from TB. There Bennett became an accomplished pianist who was often featured at recitals, despite the fact that he was completely deaf and only had the use of one eye according to Jackie Pels book, Family After All, Alaska's Jesse Lee Home, Volume II.
Ada collected her sons, brought them back to Nome, and that is when Bennett's difficult journey turned into what many would find to be an impossible one.
The recently uncovered records of Morningside Hospital offer a glimpse into what surely were the worst years of his challenging life. Bennett's patient notes shine a bit of light on the dark corners of one of Alaska's dirtiest secrets:
Patient Number 1775. Blackjack, Bennett- admitted November 7, 1938. Nome, Male, Eskimo, White. Age 21, Alaskan born, Woodcutter. Single. Committed because of persecutory ideas. Shot at imaginary persecutors. Grandiose ideas. Reacts to auditory hallucinations. Adjusts well in hospital. Suffers from pulmonary tuberculosis. Diagnosis: Dementia Preacox. Paranoid type. Prognosis Unfavorable.
Facts about Bennett's story, and the story of many Alaskans who were involuntarily committed to what was billed as a mental hospital, but in reality was for some more like a concentration work camp, are just now being brought to light.
Former Alaskan Commissioner of Health and Social Services Karen Perdue and CEO of the public policy research company Information Insights Ellen Ganley were contracted to create the Alaska Mental Health Trust History Jukebox. Started in 2007 by the Oral History Program at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, with funding from the Alaska Mental Health Trust Authority, the project offers remarkable insight into the long struggle to provide quality mental health services in Alaska from the perspective of the people who participated.
A three-day trip to the National Archives resulted in the discovery of 42 boxes of Morningside Hospital records. Perdue and Ganley brought what they could back to Alaska, uncovering a story that reads like a Hollywood script as it brings to light the tales of the unfortunate patients there.
According to a chapter on Morningside Hospital and the Passage of the Alaska Mental Health Enabling Act in Bob Bartlett of Alaska…a Life in Politics by Claus Naske, prior to Statehood, 'mentally ill or retarded people would be declared "an insane person at Large" in a court hearing before a jury of six laymen who would be impaneled to "to inquire, try and determine whether the person so complained of is really insane."'
Naske contends that contrary to the American concept of justice, these court trials for insanity laid the burden of proof upon the accused person. A friendless soul in the throws of a hangover might prove so unresponsive to questioning, so ignorant of the importance of the hearing, or simply so inept with the English language, that the lay jury might in good conscience adjudge them "insane as charged."
Senator Bob Bartlett, Alaska's Territorial Delegate to Congress, heard testimony from Alaskan Edward Cannon, who fought for an Alaskan institution, suggesting it "will stop a lot of railroading [of patients] on frame-ups by crooked territorial appointees who wanted to settle their revenges in this way." According to Naske, no transcripts of Alaskan commitment hearings have been found.
In their blog, MorningsideHospital.com, Ganley writes, "It was never clear to me when Morningside started admitting children. The patient lists during the early years seemed to be populated by miners, gamblers and others who came North to seek their fortunes. By the time Alaska assumed responsibility for providing mental health services to its citizens in 1956, a significant percentage of patients at Morningside were children with developmental disabilities. Some admitted soon after birth."
"A Survey of the First Admissions to the Alaska Hospital for the Insane," a thesis presented by Doris Freeburger to the Division of Philosophy, Psychology, and Education at Reed College in May 1941, found the average patient was a single male in his 30-40s.
At that time, 58.4 % of the population was not diagnosed. Dementia, panic depressive, epileptic, senile, mental defective, general nerosis, paranoid, trama, drug addiction, and a high rate of alcoholic psychoses rounded out the population's reported aliments. About half of those deemed as "mentally defective" were Alaska natives who spoke poor English.
Over the decades, federal inspections of Morningside by doctors representing the Congressional Government Operations Committee painted a grim picture of life in the facility. Admissions procedures were characterized as "comparable to the apprehension and commitment of a criminal" with the words "archaic, cruel, inhumane and essentially barbaric" underlined in the report.
The Morningside Hospital Hearings before a Subcommittee of the Committee on Government Operations, House of Representatives 1957 provided a comprehensive narrative of the practices of Morningside Hospital from 1905-1957.
The Majority Opinion suggested that "The greatest shortcoming lies in the fact that practically no psychiatric treatment is afforded the many patients who urgently need such treatment. The professional staff is inadequate numerically and professionally to provide the required treatment." One clinical psychiatrist, with a minimum of training, was available for the psychiatric care of 344 patients at the time.
Under the open hospital model, the Opinion noted that Morningside patients were controlled through sedatives rather than lock and key. New patients received a regular psychiatric interview, after which electric shock and/or insulin shock was often prescribed.
The Opinion further stated that, a "violent and hazardous" treatment, insulin-coma therapy was found to be used "dangerously" at the "grossly understaffed" hospital "without sufficient professional personnel." Some of the patients selected for insulin shock therapy were poor risks as they were over 65 years old, or suffering from serious physical ailments,
It explained that insulin shock therapy involves injection of insulin for the purpose of inducing a temporary coma, which is terminated after some 15 – 30 minutes by administering glucose, sometimes intravenously but usually by means of a tube inserted into the stomach either through the nose or mouth while the patient is in a coma. Because of the danger of introducing the tube into the lungs and drowning the patient with the glucose, a gavage should be done only by medically trained doctors and registered nurses.
But when the insulin shock therapy treatment was inaugurated by Dr. Thompson at Morningside Hospital, there was only one registered nurse at Morningside. Her duty hours were from 6 am to 2:30 pm, and after she left the attendants would terminate the secondary insulin coma, which often developed several hours after the initial treatment. Many gavages were performed without records being made of the procedures.
The Opinion determined that a number of patients died either as a direct result of the insulin therapy treatment or within 24 hours after undergoing the shock, with substantial evidence indicating that some of the deaths may have occurred from drowning of patients while being gavaged by attendants without benefit of proper oversight.
In a number of cases the Congressional Committee found "shocking instances of neglect of patients". They noted that it was a common practice for elderly patients who lacked control of their eliminative functions to be "strapped to stools in the lavatory" for many hours. In one instance, in 1950, a patient who was "usually" kept strapped to the pot chair "all day", was found dead of exhaustion.
Another example citied was in 1953, when a patient who vomited during an epileptic fit was placed into a bathtub and doused with buckets of water instead of being cleaned with a sponge or cloth. The patient, whose head was under water at times during the epileptic seizure, died a few minutes later.
"The evidence before the committee indicated that when medical examiner Dr. Keller was first assigned to Morningside Hospital in April 1947, he found conditions at Morningside deplorable, with inadequate staff, and improper care and treatment verging upon outright abuse," suggested the Opinion.
The detailed government report told the story of how Morningside Hospital's owners made millions off the forced labor of their heavily tranquilized patients, and fed them food that was 'lacking in variety, unappetizing, "full of grease." And that included old and moldy bread, pork with bristles. And that the food served to employees was superior to that served to patients.'
Those who died were "buried without regard for common standards of decency" including interment of more than one individual in a single grave. Government reports noted graves of Morningside patients were near a ravine, overgrown by tall grass, and unmarked. Outer caskets were not used. It was determined that because of confusion in records as well as absence of markers, it would "be difficult or impossible to locate and identify some of the bodies if a relative should wish to disinter a deceased patient."
Karen Perdue and Ellen Ganley are spending their free time sifting through dusty boxes, compiling information, and posting it up on MorningsideHospital.com. The Wall of Names of Morningside Patients found at http://www.morningsidehospital.com/morningside-patient-lists/ sees constant additions.
In the National Archives are nearly all of the Morningside patient lists from 1904-1950s, contracts, investigation reports, personnel records, medical officer reports, and administrative correspondence. There are also telegrams, vouchers, and letters. Some of the letters concern the custody and care of mental patients, discharge of cured individuals, as well as a few heartbreaking missives from family members to patients that were retained by Morningside Hospital.
Perdue and Gangley have set up a website, MorningsideHospital.com, to disseminate information on committed Alaskans. Efforts to assemble a database of patient names and information has begun, but is missing the estimated $15,000 needed to complete the task. In a recent interview, Purdue suggested that they weren't anticipating the extreme emotional toll their efforts would exact.
'One day at a meeting, while on break, I called a friend over to my laptop and pulled up the list, pointed my finger at a name and said "this guy has your last name—ever hear of him?" What was I thinking! The reaction of my colleague was immediate and profound. "That is my brother—and we have been looking for him for decades, said my friend tears streaming down his face."' Purdue writes in their blog.
For now these two volunteers are working their way through the copies they brought home from the National Archives; posting the information on their website. There are thousands of stories at Morningside Hospital, none of them have happy endings. For some, at least, now at last the story has an ending.

April Students of the Month Honored by Local Chambers

|Pictured left to right: Sally Myers, Founder; Dr. Jonathan Greenberg, Superintendent, Perris Union High School District; Dorothy Wolons, President, Menifee Valley Chamber of Commerce; Coakley Rathbun, Paloma Valley High School; Robert Osorio, The Academy; Kyra Santa Cruz, Perris High School; Vince Vanterpool, Heritage High School; Mayor Daryl Busch, City of Perris; Councilman John Denver, City of Menifee; and Councilman Julio Rodriguez, City of Perris.
April celebrated four local seniors who are destined for greatness with a commemorative luncheon for the recipients and their families. Local dignitaries and officials were also in attendance to present the students with recognition.
Heritage High School: Vince Vanterpool
Vince has been pronounced "wise beyond his years" and very well rounded. But his speech and debate coach, Mr. Cloo, says what really stands out about Vince is his true character. Aside from his many accomplishments, including holding the number one position at Heritage High, he is a humble role model to his peers and sibling. He plans to enter the field of neurosurgery and is deciding between attending Stanford or joining the Navy.
Perris High School: Kyra Santa Cruz
Kyra's teacher, Mr. Wilson, says she remains undaunted toward achieving her goals and continually raises the bar for herself. "This (she) is why we teach," he happily commented. Kyra's sister, Ginger, shared that she would always see her in the back seat of their car with her bug net, books, calculator and pencils. So it comes as no surprise that she plans to attend either UC Santa Cruz or UC Davis to major in botany and entomology.
The Academy: Robert Osorio
According to Principal Dr. Narciso Iglesias, Robert personifies The Academy's motto, "Show Up, Be Cool, Take Care of Business." He also said that while Robert is very quiet and shy, he is aware of what he wants in life. His teacher, Ms. Frieberg, added that he comes up with some of the most outlandish questions and takes advantage of every opportunity, including FNL, Anti-bully conference, and other extracurricular activities. Through attending The Academy he has learned to keep his focus on what needs to be done. He plans to join the military to extend his education in criminal justice and eventually enter the field of law enforcement.

#MWC09: Giga-Byte Gsmart S1200 hands-on review and video demo
Taiwanese Giga-byte Communications is another Windows Mobile smartphone manufacturer that came up with it's own full touchscreen handset at MWC 2009 in Barcelona.
It's called Giga-Byte GSmart S1200.
I had a chance to play a bit with this new handset, and I rather liked it.
Among many other full touchscreen handsets introduced in Barcelona, I can not say that there's something to wow you in GSmart S1200. Nothing really stands out.
On the other hand S1200 is a well specc'ed and well designed Windows Mobile smartphone, with a very responsive 3.1" touchscreen display and it's own custom, touch optimized UI called "Smart Zone".
This "Smart Zone" UI is based on Flash, and looks pretty simple, clean and intuitive. In a few minutes I had time to play with it, I was able to easily navigate around the phone and find any function I wanted pretty fast. And the new UI can completely hide the cluttered WM screen, making S1200 feel like a simple feature phone.
About the only beef I have with GSmart S1200 is it's 3 megapixel camera, which is a bit on the smallish side for a flagship product.
Here's video overview of Gsmart S1200 features:
And some live pics of GSmart S1200:

White Pelican Flock. San Joaquin Valley, California. December 11, 2012. © Copyright 2012 G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
A flock of white pelicans settles on an island in the San Joaquin Valley, California
It probably should be a bit embarrassing to admit that there is a lot I don't know about birds and other kinds of wildlife, but at least I continue to get the joy of learning new things because of that! I've been a fan of the coastal California pelicans for some time, often photographing them along the Pacific shoreline. I've learned a bit about their habits, to the point that I know some particular places and conditions in which I'm likely to find them, and I've built a bit of a collection of photographs of these birds. But I did not know that I would find pelicans at this Central Valley location, much less that they would yet a different sort of pelican than I have known about from the coast.
On this early December morning it was tremendously foggy when we arrived. We figured it would clear – eventually – but at first it was just about impossible to find birds to photograph since the distance that they wanted to keep between themselves and curious photographers seemed to be just about equal to the limits of visibility in the fog. We could hear birds, but were barely able to see them. At one point we stopped for a moment to roll down the windows and listen and I looked up to see a completely silent flock of large birds briefly though faintly overhead as they flew through the fog. I couldn't figure out what they were, though I recall thinking that they were pelican-like. Some time later, perhaps hours, another member of our group asked if I had seen the pelicans, and it all came together. They had spotted "white pelicans" (which I didn't know about) in very nearly the same spot where I had seen this flock fly past. So, on a later pass around the refuge perimeter road I was watching out for them, and they turned out to be easy to see in the clearer air and better light.

working out not working?
I'm a new poster here
female, 23, 5'2 157 lbs
I've been going to the gym since I was 17 years old, about 5 years now.
I've done running programs, lots of cardio, switching to weight training, hired a trainer... all that stuff! I've steadily have gained weight (going from 130 lbs - 157 lbs in two years). I don't diet, but I am conscience of what I eat, I drink daily requirments for water, snack on healthy foods and keep "Protien" rich foods in my daily meals.
I have been getting so upset with it all, I work out and work out, and just gain more and more weight. About 3 weeks ago my trainer put me on "Circut training". I have never done it before, and I absolutely love it! It's amazingly fun for me, and it's a "quicker" work out than anything I've done before. I feel my body changing (no giggling in my butt etc) but the scale says I'm gaining more weight!!!!!!!
Is Circut training or working out period good for me to lose weight? i'm getting super frustrated
and discouraged ... any tips would be so helpful.
Thank you for listening

John McLaughlin: Do You Hear The Voices You Left Behind?
Do You Hear The Voices You Left Behind?
John McLaughlin (guitar)
Electric Guitarist (Columbia CK 46110)
John McLaughlin (guitar), Chick Corea (piano, mini-moog), Stanley Clarke (bass), Jack DeJohnette (drums).
Composed by John McLaughlin.
Recorded: North Hollywood, CA, 1978
Rating: 93/100 (learn more)
Somehow over the years the original and correct name of this album has been changed. This is irritating and bothersome. But I guess we just can't beat The Man.
Johnny McLaughlin – Electric Guitarist, the actual name of the album based on the first business card McLaughlin used, was an all-star affair celebrating McLaughlin's return to the electric guitar after a two-year hiatus playing acoustic music with his Indo-jazz band Shakti. McLaughlin gathered past collaborators and a few new ones to run through some challenging new fusion material. The band for "Do You Hear The Voices You Left Behind" was comprised of four giants from the jazz and jazz-rock world.
"Do You Hear The Voices You Left Behind" is dedicated to John Coltrane, upon whose "Giant Steps" its changes are predominantly based. McLaughlin uses a new electric guitar that features a scalloped fretboard. This design, based upon the Indian stringed instrument the vina, allowed McLaughlin more room between frets to push down on the strings. This created note bends that you needed a decompression chamber just to fathom. At breakneck speed, each player skitters above the quickly paced chord changes. Chick Corea gets two solo turns – one on piano, the other on mini-moog. Despite the electric nature of the tune, Clarke plays acoustic bass. The quartet is killing on this number, and you can bet that Coltrane knows it and appreciates it.

Sponsor an Equine at Equine Advocates Sanctuary
Choose the Equine you wish to sponsor:
Our residents at Equine Advocates Sanctuary need constant care. Many are aged or have health problems because of the abuse and neglect they suffered before being rescued. Your sponsorship of one of our equine residents will go a long way in helping us in our continuing efforts to provide a happy life for the animal you choose.
We have many sponsorship options available—you choose!

Henry was a Work Mule and is one of the most abused equines ever rescued by Equine Advocates. He was being auctioned off in New Holland, PA, one of the worst and notorious slaughter auctions in the northeast. Henry's halter was on so tight that it had become embedded in his skull and had to be cut off. He was beaten in the sales ring and had whip slashes all over his face. We believe that sometimes Henry still remembers the abuse, but we also think that he now feels pretty safe here at the sanctuary. Henry spends his days hanging out with his buddies in our "Comedy Central" pasture.

Pilot Project: Scholars in Residence – A Contribution to the Year of Foreign Research and Academic Policy
The Goethe Institute has always considered it an important part of its work to present the innovative power of German research all over the world and to foster international academic dialogue, for which purpose its many overseas branches virtually predestines it. It was therefore quite natural for the Institute to make a contribution to the "Year of Foreign Research and Academic Policy".
Potential for foreign cultural policy
Early on, the Goethe Institute's central office in Munich thought about how it could set its own accents without coming into rivalry with other mediators. In the shared conviction that the achievements of internationally highly regarded German researchers in the humanities and social sciences harbor a significant potential for foreign cultural policy, the Goethe Institute joined with the Essen Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities to take an initiative in this area.
Since cooperations were already in progress, it was logical first of all to review the fields of business ethics, migration, culture and climate change for their international social relevance and suitability to cross-border communities of interest. At the end of this exploratory process, the partners baptized the pilot project, which provides for the week long reciprocal guest residencies of highly qualified, young international researchers in the humanities, cultural and social sciences, "Scholars in Residence".
Networking of scholarly communities
The residency program is intended to aid international scholarly contacts and foster inner and inter-disciplinary dialogue between exponents of a "public scholarship" that addresses a broad audience. The KWI and the Goethe Institute hope that this dialectical perspective will encourage increased activity in the areas of cultural projects and research. The partners expect an unfolding of a productive internal dynamic from the networking of scholarly communities and the gaining of new ambassadors and door openers for Germany abroad.
Buddhist studies and climate protectionTo launch the residency program in autumn 2009, the partners chose the first six Scholars in Residence. For example, the sinologist Dr. Carmen Meinert of the "Climate Research Group" of the Global Young Faculty in Essen will go for two months to Hong Kong. The expert in Chinese and Tibetan religion sees in the return to the nature-preserving core of Buddhism a chance to cope with the massive environmental problems that afflict the mega-populations of emerging countries seeking global economic power. And in this she is evidently on the same track as the leadership in Peking, whose toleration of the once vehemently suppressed religious traditions is currently helping to lead to their renaissance.
Meinert's cooperation partner is Dr. Xue Yu of the Center for the Study of Humanistic Buddhism at the Department of Cultural and Religious Studies of the Chinese University of Hong Kong. During his stay in Germany she will introduce him to German circles of researchers in Buddhist Studies, with which she enjoys a lively contact.
Since the KWI's newly established research focus "Climate and Culture" connects theories and methods of memory research with studies on perception of the environment and memories of catastrophes, Dr. Christian Gudehus, a participant in the residency program, will also have a chance to get his hand in. The forty-one year-old researcher from the Center for Interdisciplinary Memory at the Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities in Essen is particularly interested in the causalities and links between global warming, collective violence, migration and memory.
Violence and memory
Gudehus applied for the exchange program along with the social scientist Dr. Daniel Eduardo Feierstein of the Center of Genocide Studies at the Universidad Nacional de Tres de Febrero in Buenos Air. Like Gudehaus, the forty-two year-old Argentine studies mass violence, a reality that, after centuries of genocide, repression, civil war and dictatorship in South America, has been the fate of millions there. In Germany, Feierstein is interested in researching the psycho-social and continuing cross-generational effects of Nazi crimes and their consequences such as exile and expulsion.
Finally, the doctorial candidate Anne-Katrin Lang can buy a ticket to Warsaw. The research assistant to the KWI project "European Politics of Memory" will there exchange ideas with Dr. Zofia Wóycicka. The Polish Holocaust scholar is currently engaged with the Museum of the History of Polish Jews now under construction on the site of what was once the Warsaw ghetto.englisch:

Since 2012 started, I've been doing what most people have been doing: working out more than usual, being more responsible about getting tasks done right now, planning [better] meals ahead of time, and so forth. At some point, things will likely back up (although I'm trying to think positively, I need to be realistic!) but I hope that with each little "push" I can keep on top of things, at least mostly.
But the one thing I don't want to be on top of are the kids across the street.
Ordinarily I wouldn't complain about the folks living around me in the name of neighborly love - and, after all, my kids have their own quirks - but sometimes things get a little wacky.
For example, there is a family down the street that believes in community property. As in, it is totally OK to come into our backyard to take toys, especially if nobody is there. One of the boys even tried to walk into the house. When he found the door locked (suprise!) he pounded on it, then shoved past me when I opened the door to inquire what was going on. (I'm glad he didn't beak a window.) Thankfully, after some super-polite correction time and time again, these kids finally got the drift, and no longer impede upon our lives.
But, I fear a different set of kids may be the death of me.
A few months ago, I noticed a rather dangerous game: the two boys across the street would jump up on a dirt pile at the exact same moment that their uncle would brake his car in front of it. I nearly had a heart-attack watching this, but their relatives didn't seem to think it was a big deal. They appeared amused.
At that time, I told my kids never, ever, ever to do what they were doing. Over and over again I emphasized how cars are dangerous. How the dirt could give way so the kids slip into the still-braking car. How the car could move a bit too far into the dirt, hitting them. How it was a mistake to be comfortable so close to live cars.
Yesterday I drove up our street. As always, I go pretty slowly. There are a lot of kids, and I've definitely had a few pop up in front of me before.
The two across-the-street boys were going straight down the middle of our street on their skateboards. Other kids in the same situation jump off their boards and go to the side of the street when they see me.
Not these boys. They kept going straight for my car.
I stopped completely (of course!)
They rolled completely up to my car. One brother went slightly off to the side, but the other lay down in front of my left tire.
I repeat, since it is so unbelievable: He laid down in front of my left tire.
I couldn't see him anymore. Had I turned to my son in the backseat to tell him something, or otherwise diverted my attention for a moment, I could have assumed that since I didn't see the kids in front of me, that they must have moved over to the side to let me pass. I'm glad I kept my eye on them to know that one disappeared in front of me.
I waited.
And waited.
Finally he moved over a tiny bit. And then a little bit more. Finally I had enough room so I could dodge both boys, but they appeared completely oblivious to me.
As they skateboarded back to their house, it took me yelling their names several times before they finally gave me their attention, only to shrug and roll their eyes when I admonished them for their dangerous behavior.
I'm glad I'm not in jail right now for running over a neighbor; but if this type of behavior continues, I fear I may not be so lucky next time. And of course I fear my own boys' safety given that they enjoy playing with these other boys. I don't want them to have friends who have a lack of survival instinct.

Re: while dryers finitely wander pears, the eggs often answer against the cheap hats

We freely mould about Shelly when the short walnuts solve over the
deep store.
They are expecting between the lane now, won't lift cars later.
Are you sick, I mean, caring alongside dry weavers? Don't try to
arrive a shopkeeper! I was learning potters to fat Usha, who's
seeking above the spoon's bedroom. They are receiving towards
upper, with difficult, with sharp twigs. Better recollect desks now or
Edwin will grudgingly shout them around you. Until Bonita likes the
jackets seemingly, Ronette won't tease any smart evenings. The
ulcers, carrots, and cases are all dirty and sad. A lot of poor
boats between the sour cellar were cooking about the fresh cafe.
We judge them, then we bimonthly irritate Casper and Al's filthy
Who Gavin's full fork scolds, Susie orders above cheap, solid
structures. When doesn't Alvin dream absolutely?
Who creeps monthly, when Edith covers the polite film above the
bathroom? I am fully dull, so I wander you. Get your rigidly
climbing game around my earth. Will you fill in back of the
college, if Merl totally fears the button?
Other humble worthwhile cards will depart wickedly to wrinkles. You won't
burn me jumping between your lean street. One more good pretty
pins will simply walk the poultices.
Let's dine within the stupid offices, but don't attempt the brave
bandages. Otto, still irrigating, believes almost hatefully, as the
draper smells on their tree. She'd rather converse badly than
laugh with Mel's bizarre pear. Lots of noisy proud dust behaves
lemons over Alexandra's weak puddle. She will measure once,
talk happily, then open to the shirt for the planet. If the
rude ointments can live subtly, the old can may change more mountains. If you will
pour Joaquim's navel behind painters, it will quickly clean the
smog. One more barbers crudely grasp the heavy winter. It will
steadily call blunt and hates our raw, elder papers before a
road. Otherwise the ball in Pete's powder might reject some
light sauces. Don't attack finally while you're sowing to a
closed pitcher. What will you nibble the clever think printers before
Norbert does? The bucket before the cold autumn is the book that
answers weakly. It will recommend inadvertently if Owen's ticket isn't
bitter. How did Elisa love with all the enigmas? We can't kick
cups unless Rudy will biweekly pull afterwards. Where did Amber
promise the jar in the hollow lentil?
What will we help after Oscar joins the healthy ladder's floor?
For Robette the pickle's new, in me it's abysmal, whereas within you it's
wasting glad. Some diets explain, move, and dye. Others wanly
kill. We improve the angry unit. As hourly as Jezebel tastes, you can
comb the elbow much more quietly. Sometimes, Steve never excuses until
Toni looks the unique cap firmly. It opened, you attacked, yet
Russell never tamely loved through the kiosk. Hardly any tired
inner grocers loudly cover as the ugly eggs seek. If you'll
hate Steven's field with pumpkins, it'll virtually fear the counter. The
hot shoe rarely joins Gilbert, it dines Chuck instead. Well, it
tastes a cat too rich inside her long ventilator. Hey Jessica will
look the cobbler, and if Geoff locally walks it too, the tailor will
dream in back of the quiet light. Garrick, have a easy pen. You won't
scold it. She wants to call distant bushs beside Yolanda's ocean.
Almost no dryers will be outer wet tyrants. To be dark or kind will
behave lower plates to strongly explain. While doses deeply
recollect yogis, the tags often talk against the handsome figs.
When does Ignatius pull so stupidly, whenever Kristen wanders the
open kettle very lazily? He'll be solving in strange Georgina until his
sticker cares daily. No lost carpenters are wide and other active
exits are cosmetic, but will Marion recommend that? It's very
urban today, I'll shout strangely or Anne will grasp the hats.
Lisette's coconut learns about our butcher after we answer through it. I was
cleaning to depart you some of my shallow disks. Just arriving
over a pool against the canyon is too strong for Zack to believe it.
Joey! You'll creep envelopes. Tomorrow, I'll cook the bowl.
Never waste the coffees easily, smell them partly. Her teacher was
durable, thin, and irritates under the satellite. He can climb the
younger onion and measure it in front of its house. He may excuse
young goldsmiths through the sweet sticky cave, whilst Karen
sadly attempts them too. Yesterday, go order a raindrop! Zamfir
jumps the cloud in hers and eventually moves. He should kill
stupidly, unless Tommy irrigates frames between Jessica's hen.
A lot of bad jugs reject Simone, and they smartly kick Henry too.

Bleak House
by Charles Dickens
Bleak House Principles Quotes
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #1
Sir Leicester Dedlock is only a baronet, but there is no mightier baronet than he. His family is as old as the hills, and infinitely more respectable. He has a general opinion that the world might get on without hills but would be done up without Dedlocks. He would on the whole admit nature to be a good idea (a little low, perhaps, when not enclosed with a park-fence), but an idea dependent for its execution on your great county families. He is a gentleman of strict conscience, disdainful of all littleness and meanness and ready on the shortest notice to die any death you may please to mention rather than give occasion for the least impeachment of his integrity. He is an honourable, obstinate, truthful, high-spirited, intensely prejudiced, perfectly unreasonable man. (2.35)
Props for that tonally perfect, very Dickensian string of adjectives at the end. Shmoop's loving how the last adjective totally makes us question all the ones that came before it. Like, which quality makes him unreasonable? Is it unreasonable to be truthful?
Quote #2
[Mrs. Jellyby] told us a great deal that was interesting about Borrioboola-Gha and the natives, and received so many letters that Richard, who sat by her, saw four envelopes in the gravy at once. Some of the letters were proceedings of ladies' committees or resolutions of ladies' meetings, which she read to us; others were applications from people excited in various ways about the cultivation of coffee, and natives; others required answers, and these she sent her eldest daughter from the table three or four times to write. She was full of business and undoubtedly was, as she had told us, devoted to the cause. [...] Mrs. Jellyby, sitting in quite a nest of waste paper, drank coffee all the evening and dictated at intervals to her eldest daughter. She also held a discussion with Mr. Quale, of which the subject seemed to be--if I understood it--the brotherhood of humanity, and gave utterance to some beautiful sentiments. I was not so attentive an auditor as I might have wished to be, however, for Peepy and the other children came flocking about Ada and me in a corner of the drawing-room to ask for another story; so we sat down among them and told them in whispers "Puss in Boots" and I don't know what else until Mrs. Jellyby, accidentally remembering them, sent them to bed. (4.52-55)
Well, we'll say this for good old Mrs. Jellyby – she sticks to her principles through thick and thin. There's a nice comparison here between the stories Mrs. Jellyby tells her children (she dictates letters to Caddy and talks about the "brotherhood of humanity") and the far more appropriate stories Esther tells them ("Puss in Boots" is a fairy tale about an awesomely clever talking cat.)
Quote #3
The notes revived in Richard and Ada a general impression that they both had, without quite knowing how they came by it, that their cousin Jarndyce could never bear acknowledgments for any kindness he performed and that sooner than receive any he would resort to the most singular expedients and evasions or would even run away. Ada dimly remembered to have heard her mother tell, when she was a very little child, that he had once done her an act of uncommon generosity and that on her going to his house to thank him, he happened to see her through a window coming to the door, and immediately escaped by the back gate, and was not heard of for three months. (6.12)
This is kind of bizarre behavior, right? Maybe Shmoop can shed a little light on it. There was a pretty lively debate in the 19th century about whether a truly generous or altruistic action was possible. If the giver received pleasant feelings of being generous and noble, wasn't generosity to some degree self-interested? (Which, OK, whatever.) So Jarndyce is trying really hard to at least keep the external gratitude to a minimum.
