It is misconception that people who suffer from eating disorders are easy to spot; emaciated, drawn, pale, lifeless, and lying on a couch all day. The majority of people with an eating disorder actually look relatively normal most of the time, residing at a seemingly healthy weight and carrying out the activities of daily life: work, friends, family and of course working out. The imagined ideal of an eating disorder can only be maintained (I shouldn't use maintained here since it is always in flux at this juncture) for a short period of time and if prolonged can and will lead to death. Chronic eating disorders don't survive in this state.
How does one then live with an eating disorder? I present:
The Illusion.
I lived, if one can use that word, in this state for the better part of my eating disorder, slipping in and out of it from time to time, but staying in this phase throughout the majority of my mid to late twenties. To the outsider I maintained a full life of school, work, dating and friends, but inside I continued to crumble. I was holding up the weight of my illusion, piling it on more and more each day, holding up this inauthentic facade.
Perhaps it would have been easier to strap a billboard to my back.
I kept trying to convince myself that I was engaged in life since after all I had all the outward signs of it, but each night I returned home utterly exhausted and unhappy. I pushed for more in all realms: more work, longer workouts, and more dates with different men. The key to life had to exist behind some corner since for some reason I kept failing at this thing call life.
I judged myself by others, comparing my life to those I barely knew, the friend of a friend on Facebook, those I passed by on the streets, perhaps seeing their full lives of relationships, work, travels, family and children. I had to make myself feel better, flipping it to the exterior and feeling like a success in that yes perhaps I was thinner, worked out more and had more control, when in truth I was the one spiraling out of control and winding deeper into my illusion.
Life became what I did rather than what I was.
Human doing instead of human being.
Constant doing has the effect of flattening years together, so that one is barely able to distinguish one period of time from the next. Alcoholics and those with other addiction disorders often report similar experiences. They emerge into recovery with a hazy fog of what they have been through. Perhaps this is the bodies' way of lessening the pain of the loss of so many years, the loss of opportunity and the loss of life. A discussion of this using the terms loss can seem negative, but this isn't so. As I've written before here and here, regret isn't part of my journey. This path that I've journeyed down has allowed me to view the world in different ways, and at last I am beginning to be in a position to help to help others. There is another side. Scary? Yes. Worth it? Definitely.
I continue to move through recovery, two steps forward, one step back, a dance with life I happily and authentically engage in, simultaneously painful and joyful, all the while dancing away from my illusion.
What is your illusion? Are you living your life to your fullest potential?

Spiral antennas that are equi-angular or are Archimedean spirals, are known to be highly useful in very high frequency applications. A planar spiral antenna, for example, has two branches lying in the same plane that are symmetrical with respect to a point and are in phase opposition to produce maximum radiation in two directions that are symmetrical with respect to the antenna plane. Such antennas are widely used in air-borne direction finding systems and commonly radiation in a single direction from such an antenna is obtained by backing the spiral with a coaxial cavity having a depth that is equal to one-quarter wavelength at average operating frequency of the antenna. This is intended to cause reflected radiation in the cavity and direct radiation in the same direction from the spiral to be in phase in the plane of the spiral to reinforce rather than interfere with radiation; however, the foregoing is only true over a limited frequency range.
In order to improve or extend the frequency range of spiral antennas, it is common to provide various types of cavity structures backing the spirals. As an example of the foregoing, reference is made to U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,192,531, 3,358,288, 3,441,937, 3,555,554 and 3,686,674.
The low frequency cutoff for a spiral antenna is a function of the spiral antenna size and it has been found that a 2-1/2 inches diameter spiral antenna operates satisfactorily down to about 2 GHz. It would be desirable to extend the low frequency range, particularly for aircraft direction finding, without increasing the antenna size because of the difficulties in mounting larger sized antenna on aircraft structures. In order to extend the low frequency range down to 500 MHz, for example, it would normally be necessary to increase the antenna diameter to about 10 inches and in addition to the undesirability of this increase in size, added design problems are encountered, such as moding.
The present invention provides a second antenna inside of a spiral antenna cavity to materially extend the low frequency range of the antenna without increasing the size thereof.
The present invention provides a physically small dual mode broadband antenna, combining two antenna types in a single cavity with a minimum of electrical cross coupling and interference to materially increase the frequency range without increasing antenna size. A conventional planar spiral antenna is backed with a cylindrical cavity having the axis thereof normal to the plane of the spiral and preferably including RF absorbing material in the cavity. Also disposed in the cavity is a plurality of resistively loaded monopoles below and orthogonal to the spiral windings. With four monopoles disposed in 90� spacing in the cavity, the monopoles are energized with equal power and in phased progression of 0�, 90�, 180� and 270� to achieve circular polarization of the antenna. Energizing two monopoles with a power divider provides a linearly polarized antenna.
An antenna in accordance with the present invention, having a physical size of only 2.4 inches in diameter, has a frequency range from 500 MHz to 18 GHz as compared to a frequency range of 2 GHz to 18 GHz for a conventional spiral antenna of the same physical size.
The present invention is illustrated as to the particular preferred embodiment thereof in the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an antenna in accordance with the present invention and having portions broken away as illustrated;
FIG. 2 is a front plan view of the antenna of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a central vertical sectional view taken in the plane 3--3 of FIG. 2; and
FIG. 4 is a sectional plan view taken in the plane 4--4 of FIG. 3.
Referring now to the drawings there will be seen to be illustrated the dual broadband antenna of the present invention, including a spiral antenna 11 which may, for example, comprise a dual arm equi-angular or Archimedean spiral antenna structure of a planar configuration covering the opening in a cavity 12. This cavity may be defined by an open-ended metal cylinder 13 having a depth of the order of one-half wavelength of the average operating wavelength of the antenna. The spiral antenna 11 may, for example, have two spiral windings fed from the center by a balun 14 which may extend from the bottom center of the cavity as a coaxial cable 16. The cylinder 13 defining the cavity 12 is normally maintained at ground potential and a cylindrical balun ground shield 17 is disposed centrally of the cavity about the balun 14. The bottom of the cavity about the ground shield 17 may be filled with an RF absorbing material 18 which may, for example, take the form of carbon loaded dielectric or the like.
In addition to the relatively conventional spiral antenna structure described above, the present invention also incorporates in combination therewith a plurality of monopoles disposed within the chamber in orthogonal relationship to the spiral antenna. In the illustrated embodiment of the present invention, there are illustrated four monopoles 21, 22, 23 and 24 disposed orthogonally to the windings of the spiral antenna 11 and spaced 90� apart about the cavity beneath the spiral antenna. Each of the monopoles 21 to 24 comprises an electromagnetic radiator that may be physically formed as a metal plate or rod, such as the plate 26 of monopole 23. This plate 26, for example, is disposed perpendicularly to the plane of the spiral antenna 11 within the cavity beneath the antenna plane and directed radially of the cavity. The plate 26 extends from the vicinity of the outer wall of the cylinder 13 defining the cavity to the vicinity of the cylinder 17 defining the ground shield. At the inner end of each of the monopoles, these elements are resistively terminated by the provision of resistors 31 to 34 connecting the inner ends of the monopoles 21 to 24, respectively, to the ground plane 17. The monopoles 21 to 24 are adapted to be externally and independently energized and the monopole 23, for example, has the plate 26 thereof connected to a conductor 36 extending radially outward through an opening 37 in the cavity wall. Alternatively the monopoles can be fed at the center of the cavity and resistively loaded at the edges of the cavity.
As illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 4, coaxial cable connectors 41 to 44 are mounted on the exterior of the cavity cylinder 13 for electrical connection of the monopoles 21 to 24, respectively, with the lead wires or conductors extending from these monopoles as the center conductor of coaxial cables attached to the connectors. The monopoles are spaced 90� apart about the cavity and the plates of the monopoles are disposed perpendicularly to the plane of the spiral antenna immediately beneath such plane. The orthogonal relationship between monopoles and spiral antenna windings minimizes interaction between the two types of antennas. The monopoles are electrically connected through the coaxial couples 41 to 44 to a microwave network and power supply 51 in such a manner that the power applied to each monopole is equal and in phased progression of 0�, 90�, 180� and 270� in order to achieve circular antenna polarization. It is also possible to provide a lineally polarized antenna by feeding only two of the monopoles by a power divider. The spiral antenna windings are conventionally energized.
The embodiment of the present invention illustrated in the drawings thereof and described above has been tested over the range of 500 MHz to 18 GHz with excellent results. In such testing, the VSWR was less than 3:1 and the axial ratio was less than 3 decibels. The radiation pattern obtained by this embodiment of the present invention was the same as that obtained by the spiral antenna of the present invention without the monopole combination. It will thus be seen that the present invention provides for a material reduction in the low frequency cutoff of spiral antennas without increasing the physical size of same. This is highly advantageous particularly for aircraft mounted direction finding antennas.
Although the present invention has been described above in connection with a single preferred embodiment thereof, it will be appreciated that modifications and variations may be made within the spirit of the present invention and consequently it is not intended to limit the invention to the details of illustration or precise terms of description.

Employers are offering creative perks to attract and retain today's workers.
Plus all the HR resources you need to be more efficient and effective this fall!
Prepare for your exam with the guidance of a SHRM-certified instructor in Boston, Oct. 24-26.
Learn how to make the business case for diversity, October 25-27.
According to the poll, although one in five U.S. adults (21 percent) has at least one tattoo—up from 14 percent in 2003—45 percent of the 2,016 adults surveyed in January 2012 said people with tattoos are less attractive, 39 percent said they are less sexy, 27 percent said they are less intelligent and 25 percent said they are less healthy than others.
Such impressions could cause hiring managers to avoid tattooed candidates for jobs or promotion opportunities, particularly if they fear that an individual's appearance will impact customer or client relations.
Yet those with tattoos have very different opinions. According to the Harris poll, those with body art said their tattoos make them feel:
Notably, 50 percent of people without tattoos think those with body art are more rebellious than their nontattooed counterparts.
Harris concluded that although the association of tattoos with "deviant behavior" has decreased slightly, "among those without tattoos there are still several negative stigmas associated with having tattoos."
Other Findings
The poll revealed demographics about those with tattoos that some might find surprising:
Workplace Considerations
In addition to dealing with possible stereotyping and stigma, those with tattoos might find that some doors will be closed to them if their tattoos cannot be covered during work hours.
Such perceptions are changing, however.
"Two decades ago, showing off tattoos and body piercings would be a sure fire way to get your resume placed in the 'No Way!' pile," said workplace authority John A. Challenger, CEO of global outplacement firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas, Inc., in a 2010 statement. "Times have changed. Those making the hiring decisions are younger and not as adherent to traditions about workplace appearance."
While some employers might frown upon conspicuous body art, the practice is becoming so commonplace that companies would be limiting the pool of candidates severely if they rejected everyone with a tattoo or nose ring, Challenger added.
Whether an employer will accept visibly inked employees will depend in large part on the nature of the job and the customs of the industry and geographic area.
As SHRM Online has reported, many employers base their appearance policies on issues such as safety and corporate image. For example, in an HR Talk bulletin board posting on Jan. 5, 2012, a Society for Human Resource Management member who works in a retail environment said employees who hold customer-facing positions are expected to "completely conceal any visible tattoos" and "remove any visible body-piercings, including nose piercings, ear gauges/expanders/flesh plugs/barbells." Regular ear piercings are permitted.
The member's policy gives a solid reason for the restriction: "Customers should walk away remembering your service, not your jewelry."
Some companies are choosing to apply the same principle to body art.

Last year, Manny Pacquiao only fought once, his November wipeout of Brandon Rios. But that fight took place in Macau, China and it meant for the first time since 2009 that Pacquiao did not pay his traditional pre-fight visit to Jimmy Kimmel to appear on his late-night talk show.
But the tradition, a hilarious one, is back as Pacquiao gets ready for his rematch with Timothy Bradley Jr. on April 12 (HBO PPV) at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
Pacquiao will appear on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" (ABC, 11:35 p.m. ET) on Wednesday, April 2, along with the other guest that night -- President Bill Clinton.
Talk about political heavyweights. Pacquiao is a current congressman in the Philippines.
The appearance will be Pacquiao's eighth on the program dating to November 2009, when he made his first appearance before facing Miguel Cotto. It was on that episode that Pacquiao sang his version of the sappy 1970s ballad "Sometimes When We Touch." During ensuing appearances, Pacquiao sang duets with Kimmel and Will Ferrell and did a hilarious spoof of HBO's "24/7" with Kimmel sidekick Guillermo.
Clinton, back in the day, once played the saxophone on Arsenio Hall's late-night talk show. No word if there's a Pacquiao-Clinton performance coming.

Welfare State
Despite a rapid increase in wealth and living standards over the past few decades, more Australians are dependent on the public purse than ever before. Today, almost one in six working age Australians relies on welfare for all or part of their income. A growing welfare state means an ever higher tax take is needed, bringing more taxpayers in to the welfare system. How can government promote individual responsibility and self-reliance, while still providing a safety net? How can patterns of joblessness and dependency be broken?

Skip to comments.Man Who Shot Eric Garner Chokehold Video Arrested
Posted on 08/03/2014 4:29:05 PM PDT by Leaning Right
The man who shot the cellphone video showing a police officer using an apparent chokehold on a Staten Island man who later died, was arrested Saturday night on charges that he was carrying a stolen loaded handgun, a law-enforcement official said.
Ramsey Orta, 22 years old, was charged by the New York Police Department with criminal possession of a weapon and criminal possession of a weapon with a previous conviction, police said.
(Excerpt) Read more at online.wsj.com ...
Orta??? another white hispanic perhaps??
Wait until the video of the cops planting the handgun comes out.
Thank God for the real men who founded this country,
and for the real men who continue to sustain it
Please join the 300 by donating $100
Well, yeah ... NOW he has a "criminal record" - after some corrupt NYC cops likely planted the illegal firearm. There is no such thing as "coincidences" - particularly where dirty cops are involved ... Just remember their motto: "To Protect and to Serve (Ourselves!)"
I eventually got the gun back after ballistics did their thing and the trials were concluded.
The cops were found guilty. IMHO they were the ones fencing all the stuff the thieves stole.
That is why they always find a gun and drugs on you after they kill you. They put them there, why shouldn't they find them? They will also find child porn on your computer that they planted there.
I remember the Mad send-up of the movie "Serpico" when he says he wants to be an honest cop;and his uncle says "make up your mind," !which is it gonna be?
Throw-down gun?
Sounds like a setup to get the guy who took the video out of the way. He will not be available in court to verify that the video was the one he took and the charges will be dropped against the cop.
Some of them have done nothing no more sinister than been caught with an unregistered firearm. What was that quote from Atlas Shrugged about the law wanting to make all citizens criminals so the arrest card could be played at an opportune time?
I suspect this guy may not be available to testify because he'll have an unfortunate accident. Choking on a bar of soap, beaten to death in solitary, something.
"The law-enforcement official said Mr. Orta is known by a street name of "Sparks" and has a prior record going back to 2009, including criminal trespass, assault and drug possession.
Most recently, he was charged in May with robbery with a box cutter, the official said. In June 2013, Mr. Orta was charged with gun possession after he allegedly threatened to kill someone, the official said."
Man, reading these comments is like reading the Daily Kos. I hear the cops blew up the World Trade Center too.
Referring to the article, there isn't information that Orta denies possession of the gun. He is quoted as saying: "You're only mad because I filmed your boy."
If this was some sort of moronic set up to get him out of the way to prevent him from testifying, it has already failed miserably.
In the movies, something like you suggest might happen. The video speaks for itself, and, if he were to die before any legal proceeding, the facts will not be in dispute as to who took the video. It will be admissible in a criminal or civil proceeding.
Stick around. It will get much more heated. Trust me.
Let's hope he doesn't croak from a mysterious chokehold in jail. Some people can be very vindictive.
Yes, we are now officially a full-on Police State. No more entries please, we have a winner!
You read Daily Kos? Hmmm Bet you like occupydemocrats.com also.
I expect the day comes when there is a shootout at the farmstead here and as they pry the gun from my cold, dead hands, the media will be reporting on all the anti-government "terroristic" posts I have made over the years here.
Never heard of that one, probably fit in nicely with some of what I read at FR though. This thread is a perfect example.
"I suspect this guy may not be available to testify because hell have an unfortunate accident. Choking on a bar of soap, beaten to death in solitary, something"
He does not need to testfy. The video tells the story better than an eye witness account.
Awww, that's too bad. FR may not be the place for you then.
Oh yeah, I was going around with them for awhile on the original 'choke hold' thread.
Wait til they find out NYPD used their secret 'Precogs' 'Minority Report' psychics to plant a weapon on the guy the first time he got arrested. Officers J and K were responsible for that little caper.
Frankly Scarlet.
1. The left hates cigarettes, but taxes them heavily. Garner was allegedly selling UNTAXED cigarettes. The left should be angry at him.
2. Garner resisted arrest, and died with the ME determining that the cause of death was homicide.
3. People are outraged by his death. Some FReepers are labeling it murder, and even cold blooded murder. There has yet to be a LEGAL determination by the District Attorney's office.
4. The left HATES guns and wants them confiscated, with some wanting to kill people who possess guns. The man who took the video was arrested in June of this year for gun possession after allegedly threatening go kill someone. Plus, he has now been charged with possession of a gun. Where's the hate and outrage from the left?
Let me get this straight. Ramsey Orta, age 22 has an arrest history for the last 5 years. In May he 'allegedly' pulled a robbery with a box cutter and in 2013 he got arrested with a gun after threatening to kill somebody. (all planted evidence undoubtedly)
Incidents of that caliber usually earn someone the "one of Obama's sons" moniker but since he made a video of the Jackbooted NYPD murdering somebody all is forgiven and he's suddenly an FR hero.
Now I get it.
They seem to have all gravitated to FR.
I won't criticize him or others who use their cameras to document what they see in public, that is their right. But obviously, I won't conveniently ignore their past acts of criminality and talk of them in "heroic" terms. I do not stand with Orta.
Forty years ago, a leftist magazine urged people who were going to anti-war demonstrations to sew their pockets shut so nothing could be slipped into them if they were arrested.
Same here, I do not criticize him for his video at all, more power to him. I've been video'd myself, no big deal.
What confounds me is what I believed to be reasonably intelligent people on this website falling for media bias and lies. I guess when the media bias and lies suit their purpose it's acceptable. Or maybe some folks are just that gullible.
Bill Jordan told of an incident on the southern border in which a smuggler was shot. The story was the smuggler crossing a foot bridge, pulled a .22, fired at the border patrolman. The smuggler was shot and his pistol fell into the river with two shots fired.
Their was a trial of the border patrolman from overzealous supervisors.
Bill went down to the bridge, and at the exact spot where the smuggler was shot, he leaned over to look in the river, and a cheap .22 with two shots fired that Bill had in his shirt pocket accidentally fell into the river.
Later, the supervisors went to the exact spot with a magnet to see if they could retrieve the smuggler's gun.
To their surprise, they pulled out four or five .22 pistols all with two shots fired.
Too bad they've given us such reason to fear and deplore their actions huh?!
Police officers are members of society and reflect that society. Our society is a Godless, hedonistic cesspool headed for totalitarian rule. That's what happens when we want to be governed by man rather than God.
I've seen a lot of deplorable actions from the lowest of the low to 'fine, upstanding people,' including police officers.
Do I believe the police planted a gun on this guy? Not for a minute. Because some police officers have committed some deplorable actions do I jump on the crazy train? No sale.
You mention that some folks here are gullible. That could well be true. But in this instant I see myself as suspicious, not gullible.
Consider this analogy. Let's suppose a small businessman goes on Fox News, and exposes IRS corruption. And this greatly embarrasses the IRS, even though they deny the corruption.
And then just a week later the small businessman is the subject of an IRS audit, where irregularities are found. The IRS says the timing of the audit is just a coincidence.
It might be a bit unfair to the IRS, but be honest. Wouldn't you be a bit suspicious, especially given past IRS excesses?
I hope you see the point I'm trying to make here.
The United States military, according to the media, have committed some pretty fearful and deplorable acts, are you condemning them as well? And they have video.
I've forgotten more about media bias than you'll ever know.
But I haven't forgotten this gem:
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance.
I don't object to officers, per se. I object to SWARMS of officers, which we got now.
For example, the local pretend sojers got to roll their MRAP and a couple of Bearcats last week. It wasn't necessary.
I understand what you say, although I don't necessarily agree with it all. I believe that police might have planted a gun on this gun. Not for sure. It's sure not a crazy train to believe it though, since it's happened wayyyyy too often. Not just planting stuff on people, but shootings and murders and abuse, rape, shooting dogs....lots of different things.
That's what I'm wondering. ... A crazy coincidence. ... If that's what it is.
One more thing. Actually, I wouldn't bet on a plant either. But here's one thing I would bet on: the cops knew who Orta was, and his connect to the video. And so they were following him around, hoping to get in a little payback.
Am I sure? Not at all. But that's the way I'd bet.
I'm sorry, I'm not making the correlation. I watched the Garner video, I read the Medical Examiners report. Garner did not die from being choked. His trachea was not damaged. I watched the 'choke' and I know how to apply the choke. The cop only had what could be considered a choke for about 2 seconds and Garner was talking and conscious when he did. You can not talk when you are being choked. I have been choked myself countless times.
The video is going to vindicate that cop.
Not more than a week later the media ran another story about another cop 'choking' a woman. Watching that video they lied again.
Now we are lead to believe the cops planted a gun on the guy that shot the video so they could arrest him and negate the video evidence?
Why would I want to dismiss a video that was going to show my innocence? And his arrest isn't going to make any difference in the case anyway.
Question: Did the cops hand the gun off to the girlfriend too? You know, like a BOGO deal? Get both of them with one gun? Bust One Get One?
Nice to see everybody throwing out their strawmen arguments.

Phelps also became the 22nd player in school history to score 1,000 career points during the game.

He joined current 49er teammates Casper Ware, Larry Anderson and T.J. Robinsonin the exclusive club.
Phelps finished the game making 8-of-12 field goals while grabbing five boards. Robinson added 12 points and eight rebounds, while Ware, James Ennis and Peter Pappageorge(career high) each scored 11 points.
Mike Caffey, making his first career start in place of the injured Anderson, had eight points, four rebounds and four assists (no turnovers) in 29 minutes.

Defensive pressure helped LBSU build its lead back to nine, 21-12, with 7:41 to play. The Aggies committed eight turnovers in the first 12:19.
Long Beach took control over the next five minutes with a 17-5 run highlighted by Phelps. The 49er forward, who scored a career-high 23 points in both of the 49ers' games against Davis this season, had nine of the 17 points.
The 49ers extended the run to 21-11 to take a 20-point lead, 41-21, into the locker room.
Phelps scored 15 in the half, while Ware had nine. The 49ers connected on 53.3 percent (16-of-3) of their shots, while holding UCD to 36.4 percent (8-of-22). The Aggies also turned the ball over 11 times, leading to a 19-0 points off turnovers advantage for LBSU.
The 49ers extended the lead to as many as 37 late in the second half, and UC Davis never got closer than 18 after the break.
Long Beach State advances to the semifinals where it will play UC Irvine at 6:30 Friday at the Honda Center.

Children's LiteratureThere are no surprises in this counting book; Blue is his friendly-faced self, the accompanying animals are pastel-colored and cute, and the reader gets to count to five. Though Silverhardt's book does not offer great innovations in the canon of counting book texts, she does follow the general tone of the Blue's Clues television program. Children will appreciate this book and enjoy counting along, provided that they enjoy the program. Ziegler does a nice job of making the text appealing to children, by describing the animals in the diminutive case, thus emphasizing their smallness and cuteness as well as creating some internal rhyme. While children who love Blue will be very happy with the book, parents may find teaching the notation of the numbers difficult due to the book's design. Yammer has used the numbers one through five as a pastel background behind the book's text. The partial obstruction of the numbers may make them harder to recognize for less visually-savvy readers. Despite this potential problem, this title will be a welcome addition to the libraries of the cartoon dog's Spanish-speaking fans. This book is part of the "Pistas de Blue" series. 2005 (orig. 2001), Simon & Schuster Libros para nios, Ages 6 mo. to 5.

Ratings for Dr. Charles J. Gatti
Been going for years. Wonderful experience. Has been our whole family's dentist.
Dr. Gatti and his staff are amazing. The girls in the front and the back are always so nice and polite. Dr. Gatti takes the time to actually talk to you, listen, and explain things. Unlike most dentist that could careless and goes on to the other patients without wondering if you have any questions or concerns. Dr. Gatti is my new permanent dentist!!
Awesome dentist. I have not any good experiences with dentist until now. I have had deep root cleanings, cavities and cap done. Would not go anywhere else!
I was very comfortable asking questions. His answers were in a language I could understand. The entire staff is on their game.
I am very afraid of the dentistry. It was a great visit. Very gentle, explains everything well and the staff is fantastic. I have send my friends there also and they just love him.

Cambridge Companions to LiteratureAlexander Pushkin stands in a unique position as the founding father of Russian literature.

In the first part of the book individual chapters analyse his poetry, his theatrical works, his narrative poetry and historical writings. The second section explains and samples Pushkin's
$40.49Alexander Pushkin (1799-1837) is Russia's greatest poet, a 'founding father' of modern Russian literature, and a major figure in world literature.

Ceaselessly experimental, he is the author of the greatest body of lyric poetry in the language;

Henrietta Castlebury Auman
1915 2003
HILLSBOROUGH -- Henrietta Castlebury Auman died at her home in Hillsborough Wednesday afternoon.
She was born in Raleigh, the daughter of Muriel Victor and Dr. Frank Castlebury. She grew up in a close and loving family of Castleburys, Brantleys, and Laytons. She graduated from Cary High School and Meredith College.
She taught one year in Duplin County and then moved to Hillsborough in 1937 to teach Home Economics. There she met and married Coach D. Glenn Auman, a native of Moore County. They made their home in Hillsborough, where they were loving and active parents for their daughters, Vicky and Catherine and later grandparents for Tom, Christine, and Carolyn. Both were devoted Christians and enjoyed many years of worship, service and leadership in the Hillsborough Presbyterian Church.
In a 30-year career in the Orange County Schools, Mrs. Auman taught hundreds of young women the arts of homemaking. She particularly enjoyed visiting the homes of many of her students and always loved to see them after they graduated. Both Mr. and Mrs. Auman retired in 1975.
She enjoyed participating in many church and community activities. She volunteered over 25 years at the VA Hospital in Durham. In 1999, she was recognized by the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution for her thousands of hours of volunteer service at the VA.
She was active in and held leadership positions in the Davie Poplar Chapter of the DAR, Orange County Historical Museum, Hillsborough Garden Club, Hillsborough Historical Society, Delta Beta chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma Society, United Way, Home Economics Association, Orange County Red Cross, Orange Congregations in Mission, Orange County Retired School Personnel, America Legion Auxiliary, and the Meredith College Alumnae.
She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, her daughter, Muriel Victor Auman Frazier, and her brother, Frank D. Castlebury Jr.
She is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Catherine and Guido DeMaere of Chapel Hill; grandson, Thomas McGregor Frazier of Mt. Holly; granddaughters, Christine Auman DeMaere and Carolyn Auman DeMaere of Chapel Hill; sister and brother-in-law, Martha and Reuben Shaw of Raleigh, and her friend and faithful helper, Mary Jo Ray of Liberty. She is also survived by her sisters and brothers-in-law, Evelyn Castlebury and Mack Auman of Raleigh, Sally Auman, Earl and Joyce Auman, Raymond and Juanita Auman of Moore County, and Howard and Maxine Auman of Sanford; 17 nieces and nephews and their families, many cousins, friends, and former students.
There will be a visitation in Strudwick Hall at the Hillsborough Presbyterian Church Friday evening from 6:30-8:30. A memorials service will be held on Saturday at 11:00 a.m. at the Hillsborough Presbyterian Church.
She requested that memorials be made to the Hillsborough Presbyterian Church, Box 717, Hillsborough, NC 27278; the Orange County Historical Museum, 201 N. Churton St., Hillsborough, NC 27278; or the charity of your choice.

And if you don't believe that there are still people getting their panties in a twist over hearing the secret of The Crying Game or getting angry that you accidentally assumed they knew that Kevin Spacey was Keyser Soze, then heed this cautionary tale. My brother once struck up a conversation with his wife about King Kong, only to find she was appalled that he'd ruined it for her by divulging that Kong falls off the Empire State Building at the end. A spoiler that was well-known before World War II had even started.
Be warned. These people are out there. Stick to the rules. Remember the motto: "If 10 years hath passed, I may spoil your ass."

My high school English teacher--the one who showed me the wonders of eliminating 'to-be' verbs in favor of stronger action words, and the one who taught me to read for layers of meaning beyond the surface of the page--changed my life in the way teachers do sometimes. Just a few small nudges here and there, and the world of words opened to me in a whole new way. I've run into her a few times since high school, and she sent me a lovely flower arrangement on the day of my ordination. She was 'that' … [Read more...]

Deep in the Root
Deep in their roots, all flowers keep the light.This winter image, offered up by poet Theodore Roethke, embodies the spirit of Advent. Beneath the frozen-over ground (unless you live in the desert, or at the beach, in which case we don't want to hear about it--just pretend it's frozen, ok?) …under all the ice and snow; attached to that shriveled brown stem left over from summer's abundance; way below all that we can see, the flower keeps the light. Something is happening in the darkness. In i … [Read more...]
Let it Go: What Church Can and Can't Be at Christmas
Here's what I did NOT need to see: that article from "Christianity Today" about how many Americans will go to church for Christmas.The answer? Everybody. ALL THE PEOPLE. They will come from the city and country, from hill and holler; the believing and the skeptical, and happy and the heartbroken, the long-lost and the never-known... It's Christmas and THEY ARE COMING. Prepare the overflow seating...These publications hit us all year long with the depressing 'mainline decline' … [Read more...]
Hope Trumps Fear: Advent Thoughts on the GOP Debate
"Look Daddy! Every time Trump gets 'booed,' an angel gets his wings!"...is the thought I kept having during the debate. Maybe that scene came to mind because Trump IRL reminds me of the movie Mr. Potter. That cinematic caricature of evil; obtuse, antiquated, "a warped, frustrated old man." Pretty spot on.More to the point-- every time Trump gets "booed," another candidate gets his wings. Last night just confirmed my suspicion that all the others must be paying him to say these appa … [Read more...]
This Magic Window
Most years, I'm a Christmas minimalist. My kids get 3 or 4 gifts each—some of which are books, some "boring" things they needed anyway. I refrain from planning lots of festive family outings, opting instead to nest in and avoid the rushing, shopping madness out there in the suburbs. We do our church things, we put up a tree, we bake stuff for the neighbors. It is simple and good.So why is it that, this year, I cannot stop shopping for toys? And have thrown myself into the 'daily surprise' fre … [Read more...]
Come Darkness, Come Light
I'm going to have to call the police on my neighbors.The liturgical police, that is.Their house is covered with Christmas lights. That's fine. I love Christmas lights! Also, on their porch, they have a giant, hand-painted wooden sign. (When I say 'giant,' I mean huge. I mean Santa could see this thing from space). And it says "JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON." Yes, the all caps seem a little aggressive to me, too. But the sign alone is not my gripe, exactly.What I'm liturgical … [Read more...]
Naughty or Nice: Tell Your Kids They're Good
I swear I didn't lose it on purpose.Here's how it happened. When my daughter was a baby, my friend Rachel bought her an Elf on the Shelf. I didn't actually get it out of the box until she was about 3, and my son was 1. My daughter promptly named the elf "Rachel," and here's the CREEPIEST thing--she had not seen aunt Rachel, the PERSON, since she was a baby. Had no idea this elf came from aunt Rachel, the person--because, hello, elves come from the NORTH POLE. So, how the elf became Rachel … [Read more...]
Keeping the Light
Normally, I'm a purist. Nothing green or sparkly goes up at my house until the first Sunday of Advent. Not a strain of Christmas music creeps over my airways until December 1. No shopping until I really HAVE to. And even then, my version of 'shopping' is pretty modest.But this year? Somebody call the liturgical police—because I am like Buddy the Elf up in here. I finished most of my shopping online weeks ago. The minute I finished my turkey and mashed potatoes on Thursday, I cranked on the al … [Read more...]
