Conflicts between Catholics and Jews are a hot topic, and many in the media and the academy enjoy making Catholics the bad guys.
A recent, highly publicized example is the book Constantine's Sword: The Church and the Jews by James Carroll, which alleges that the Church has been guilty of systematic anti-Semitism almost since its beginning.
Simon Magus is a cinematic fable about Catholics and Jews that avoids this trendy stereotyping. Set in a 19th-century shetl, it realistically recreates the texture of rural Polish life during that period from a Jewish point of view. But it is not anti-Catholic.
The parish priest and the local rabbi are both decent men and their beliefs and those of their respective flocks are treated with respect. Even the aristocratic squire, a nominal Catholic, is presented as a force for the good. If anything, the rabbi who administers corporal punishment to youthful transgressors is the strictest and most intolerant of the region's authority figures. But the movie's subtext is the anti-Semitism which pervades rural Polish culture like the ever-present fog that envelops the area's forests and farms.
Fortunately, English writer-director Ben Hopkins isn't interested in political guilt-tripping; his primary focus is elsewhere. He establishes a dream-like atmosphere in which non-rational happenings are everyday events in both the Christian and Jewish communities. Miracles are real, and evil is depicted as a supernatural phenomenon.
Simon (Noah Taylor) is a young, parentless Jew who's treated as an outsider ("a raven of the latrines") by both communities. He's perceived by some as a kind of demented village idiot and by others as a magician who possesses supernatural powers to do either evil or good. Kids throw stones at him, and peasants pay him money not to put spells on their lands.
Hopkins convincingly takes us inside Simon's interior visions. It's ambiguous as to whether they are real or imagined. The outcast Jew is seen arguing with the devil (Ian Holm, best known to Catholics as Zerah, the Temple scribe, in Franco Zeffirelli's Jesus of Nazareth) and taking his advice in small matters like revenge against his youthful tormentors.
But Simon isn't the devil's disciple. The prince of darkness is presented as just one part of the spirit world which includes both Christian and Jewish manifestations. The outcast Jew prays sincerely and often in the synagogue, but the rabbi (David de Keyser) insists that he sit upstairs with the women during services because he uses his own words instead of those of the liturgy.
The region is in the middle of a great economic transformation brought about by the building of a railroad. Those merchants whose businesses were set next to the once-busy highway — both Christian and Jew — are being wiped out. The remedy is to construct a station next to the rail line where the entrepreneurs can relocate. The property involved is owned by the local squire (Rutger Hauer), and he must choose between two competing proposals presented by members from each community.
David (Stuart Townsend), a Jewish dairy farmer, makes the first offer but can come up with little money. The nobleman counters by attaching an unusual condition to the deal. He fancies himself a poet and insists the intelligent young Jew read his work and discuss it with him on a regular basis.
David's life is complicated by personal issues. He has long courted Leah (Embeth Davidtz), a widow who bakes delicious bread. But the only person who can bring him up to speed for poetry sessions with the squire is the well-educated Sarah (Amanda Ryan), who's also looking for an eligible Jewish husband. Leah's jealousy seems as if it will destroy the deal.
Hase (Sean McGinley), a wealthy Christian landlord, offers the squire more money for the same piece of land but is turned down. Furious, he exploits the community's antiSemitism and threatens violence in hopes of getting his way.
Simon sees himself as the man in the middle and tries to use this position for his own purposes. To ingratiate himself with the Catholic community, he tells the priest he wants to become a Christian and begins instruction in the faith. Hase hires him to spy on the Jews and set up retaliatory action against them.
Up until this point, Simon has functioned as the kind of scapegoat figure found in Yiddish folk tales. "I attract all the evil spirits," he complains.
But lessons in the faith seem to have penetrated his soul. He's been taught the meaning of Jesus' crucifixion and about the martyrdom of certain saints, and when the chips are down, he is willing to sacrifice himself for the greater good.
Early in the movie, the young Jewish outcast says he was named after Simon the magician who was baptized by Philip in Samaria (Acts 8:9-25). When the convert offered Peter money for the ability to lay on hands and enable people to receive the Holy Spirit, he was sternly rebuked for trying to buy spiritual power and told to pray for repentance.
Simon the magician is considered by some to be the first gnostic, and there are some parallels between him and his namesake in the film. But Simon Magus is neither gnostic nor Christian. It's a serious and honest reflection on spiritual occurrences that appear to cut across denominational lines. By these means, the filmmaker transforms the material of a Yiddish literary genre into a work of broader appeal.

Owning a Fretlight has been a great experience. I tried playing once when I was 12, but I didn't catch on. I didn't have the patience to memorize chords and scales, or to learn songs for that matter. A Fretlight is like having a map—it helps me understand where I am with options to go different routes. The best part is being able to learn something new quickly, then turning off the LEDs to test how much I've retained.Next ×
I'm a self taught guitarist, and frankly had a lot of trouble just learning scales and patterns on the neck by translating charts and sheet music to the actual fretboard. Fretlight guitars make improving your playing so much simpler and frankly more fun. Being able to lay out a scale on the frets and be able to play around with improvisation and phrasing without worrying about finding a note from a chart you're looking at makes a huge difference, and I can already see a noticable improvement in a few short days after trying a Fretlight because I was more focused on playing the instrument as opposed to playing a chart.Prev Next ×
Playing my new FG507 and LOVING IT!!! Getting this is one of the best decisions I've ever made. I've been playing off and on for about twenty years, but never made it past strumming basic chords. I've always been frustrated because I couldn't seem to evolve beyond that. Finding guitar tabs on the internet has been somewhat helpful, but having to constantly look back and forth from the screen to the fretboard is both frustrating and confusing. I've had my Fretlight for two weeks and I've already learned to play "And I Love Her" by the Beatles and the intro to Hendrix's "Hey Joe." I've tried many times to learn "Hey Joe" using tabs, but I was never able to get it. With the Fretlight, I learned it in one night (the intro, that is). Being able to listen to the music, slow it down, and follow the lights on the fretboard made it INCREDIBLY EASY! Hint - for it to sound right you really need to get the timing down. I just want to say thanks to Rusty and all the Fretlight Team for such an amazing learning tool. Also, I want to give a shoutout to Greg and Jason in customer service. They've both been very helpful answering my questions. FRETLIGHT ROCKS!!!Prev Next ×
Thanks for such a great product, I have saved hundreds of dollars on music lessons, not to mention the time and gas that I would have spent meeting with an instructor. I played the guitar a lot in my teens up to my college years, then put it away due to many other obligations. Now in my mid 50's, it time to bring back that second childhood. It's not as simple as riding a bike, the fingers are a little stiff and the memory isn't what it use to be, but I'm sure having a great time. I have told so many others about your product. I remember learning to play the keyboard in the 70's using the keys that light up. There were not a lot of songs available, but it was a great tool to learn chord progressions and left/right hand dexterity. The concept of adding this learning principal to a guitar was ingenious. I'm looking forward to new products and hope to see a lot more background tracks for blues and jazz and some good old rock n roll. Thanks again.Prev Next ×
I've always admired people who could play the guitar, and I never thought of myself as being able to play as well. When I learned about the Fretlight guitars and heard from friends how the LED system worked, I had to try it for myself. I have the Fretlight Acoustic, and have to tell you that the guitar is beautiful, and the LED system makes learning and playing so much easier. I've been able to pretty quickly play some of my favorite songs. I never dreamed of being able to play an instrument, and now I can actually play the guitar!Prev Next ×
My initial goal was just to be able to play my favorite riff. With the Fretlight, I was there in a day. Not having to go back and forth between tab and the fretboard is a life-saver, you can just look at the lights!Prev Next ×
I've picked up the guitar on and off, but have always been a piano player and haven't been able to translate that skill to guitar. I had no idea I could learn an instrument so quickly; so you can imagine my excitement once I started the Fretlight program and was playing my favorite Avett Brothers song in no time! Not only that, but I learned and memorized chords that helped solidify my progress. Awesome product.Prev Next ×
Using my Fretlight guitar, I learned to play one of my favorite songs in just one night! It really helped to motivate me to keep playing and not give up. My husband has been playing for years and couldn't believe how easy I picked up the song using the Fretlight system!Prev Next ×
Being a Pro Keyboard Player for over 30 years, I've always been a bit envious of the guitar player players. Tried a few times to learn but always got frustrated reading Tablature. Finally, a guitar method that makes sense, put the Tablature right on the fretboard. Plugged it and in one night was playing 'Day Tripper' 'Pretty Woman' & 'Wonderwall'. Next up, 'Stairway to Heaven' I can't imagine learning to play any other way. And if your a seasoned player, what better way to learn your songs? Now if I could only get my Piano to light up.Prev Next ×

If I had not discovered Fretlight, I would not be playing today. Being severely dyslexic, I am unable to ever learn to read music.

The Fretlight Guitar is truly a remarkable learning tool….I'm learning very quickly and have finished beginners 101 & 102 and I'm now ready to start the intermediate 101 program and I have also bought some of the Hal Leonard Fretlight DVD courses… Each day brings new knowledge of the guitar to me and my playing skill continues to grow!

Thank you for the reply, I just wanted to let you know the 1st fretlight that Optek advertise on magazine back in 1995 I went and bought it, then it was improved 2002, I went and bought another one with humbucker pick up. I learned and visualized all of the modes, minor, major scales and pentatonic. Now that I am teaching here in Kandahar Afghanistan with the U.S Army so I decided to buy the most latest visualization guitar tool the Only Optek fretlight 2013 I have showed it to some guys out here and pretty amazing way to memorize the scales and chords and learning songs. I will definitely be your satisfied customer and will buy more of your products esp the fret light ready videos. I have been demonstrating to my comrades an effective way of learning scales, chords, songs some guys thinking of buying one. Thanks for the support. God Bless America.Prev Next ×
I just bought the pro guitar package, i know it will help me learn the other 27 or so scales i haven' t learned yet. I've been playing for 15 yrs. i think its gonna be a great learning tool and quickly take me out of my rut. It makes sense to be able to see the scale right before your eyes instead of in a book or on a screen. If this works well, i'm gonna recommend it to everyone i can.Prev Next ×
As a composer this guitar and software combination makes it so easy for me to arrange and compose anywhere on the fretboard. Any impromptu guitarist will benefit from not having to rely on books and charts in order to work on scales, arpeggios and solos, what an amazing instrument!Prev Next ×
The Fretlight line of guitars is a great way to build and/or improve your guitar vocabulary. Whether you are an experienced player such as myself or just learning, Fretlight will allow you to accomplish more in less time using its unique illuminated fretboard. It should be noted that these guitars also play surprisingly well enough to be used as a go-to guitar for live performance.Prev Next ×
I'm greatly enjoying my Fretlight system and have already learned some new things. It really is a terrific system. I will definitely be singing your praises.Prev Next ×
I think that your Guitars are KICK-ASS! I LOVE the easy learning system! I recommend these guitars to every person I talk to about music.Prev Next ×

FYI - I have a college buddy who is an extremely talented and very well respected luthier here in the KC Metro area. He builds his own guitars and also plays in a few bands. I had him check the 461 over and he was amazed at how nice this guitar is. He called me with the whole, Dude!, Holy crap this is nice and the software works awesome!. He is a very talented player and is not easy to impress about anything guitar, but his exact words about your software and LED setup were, this is a very nice system, I'm impressed.Prev Next ×
I really enjoy your products & am a big supporter of your company. I look forward to demonstrating my new fretlight acoustic to my friends once it arrives. Keep up the great work!Prev Next ×

You folks rock. I love your product, I bought it for my daughter and it makes learning guitar great. My kid is crazy for iPhone stuff and it will help her practice more if we had an app and all the other conveniences i mentioned. i work in electronics and computers and i know that it is not magic and it takes money, time and serious work to create technology and software, but this is on my wish list. good luck in everything your doing, great job linking up with Guitar Tab Pro, i tell everyone who will listen about your products. best regards,Prev Next ×
I have played everyday from 45 mins to 2 hours per day for the last year and a half. I have made a great deal of progress and my 12 year old daughter is in School of Rock in Portland and we play together almost nightly. She likes to break down the song and learns it very quickly usually without the Fretlight. Anyway I think I have improved greatly and the Fretlight is very helpful and I do enjoy playing actual songs…Prev Next ×

Rubimed Emvita 13 addresses the emotional issues of: You have been deeply hurt or betrayed, so withdraw and build up walls to protect yourself. You have the tendency to distance yourself from others and may feel indifferent or misunderstood. You focus on tasks, family or work rather than emotions. You don't feel like you can cope with another disappointment. You lack faith and trust in yourself and/or in others.

Each Emvita is connected to a certain autonomic center called plexus in western medicine or chakras in the eastern tradition. The energy center of the heart (4th chakra/heart chakra) has as its main energetic theme the development of trust, in oneself but also in others; trust in life itself also belongs here, in the center of the body.
THE FOLLOWING CONFLICT THEMES RELATE TO THE HEART REGION AND EMVITA 13: One feels one cannot get over disappointments, and withdraws into oneself.

Dancing With the Stars All Stars 2012 - Tony Dovolani Says Melissa Rycroft Has Changed
Melissa Rycroft has changed so much since the eighth season of "Dancing With the Stars," her pro partner Tony Dovolani says, "It's like dancing with a new person" as they prep for the all-star 15th season that launches Sept. 24.
"She's married now and has a child. She has a better attitude than last time. She even likes different music," reports Dovolani.
"DWTS" fans will recall that last time, the popular "The Bachelor" contestant and "Bachelor Pad" cohost came in with just two days to prepare, subbing for an injured Nancy O'Dell, and wound up making it all the way through the season in a third place finish.
Melissa takes daughter Ava to her daycare/school, then she and Tony rehearse from 9:30 to 2:30, when she leaves to pick up the tot, according to Tony. "She hasn't neglected her child at all," he says -- and they still log intense rehearsal days.
Family man Dovolani is the perfect guy to understand her need to split her time. He has a seven-year-old daughter and four-year-old twins, a boy and a girl. "At seven o'clock in the morning," he tells us, "the music goes on in my home, and we dance."
See photos of this year's DWTS rehearsals in the gallery below.
GETTING ANIMATED: With his costarring role on Showtime's ribald "House of Lies," his recurring part as the cult fave wildman Jean-Ralphio on "Parks and Recreation," plus a couple of big ticket film writing assignments, rising multi-talent Ben Schwartz is busy -- so busy, he has literally rushed from one set to another to work on the same day. And now he's doing 52 episodes as the title voice role in Disney XD's Sept. 17-debuting "Randy Cunningham, 9th Grade Ninja."
"I don't sleep much. I get very stressed out a lot," admits Schwartz, whose credits include writing for David Letterman and "Saturday Night Live." However, "I started from nothing; I had no connection with anybody in the entertainment industry. When I started, I was just doing comedy for five or six years for no money, just trying my hardest to get work. So the fact I have opportunities now just blows my mind, it gets me so excited, you know, like, if I didn't work as hard as I could, the person I was seven years ago would be so upset at me."
Why a Disney XD animated show? Schwartz says he's a long-term animation buff himself. With "Randy Cunningham," he says, "I get to be a ninja! I get to be this big, funny, broad character and make action sounds like I'm slicing through robots and stuff like that. For me, that's like the perfect fantasy." Plus, his niece and nephew can watch it -- unlike much of his other work. "Randy Cunningham" also attracted voice talent including Tim Curry and Megan Mullally. "It's really funny, and it gets funnier as we go along," Schwartz tells us.
MEANWHILE: Schwartz' screenplay for Paramount's planned updated version of the 1991 comedy hit "Soapdish," with Rob Reiner producing, wound up on Franklin Leonard's annual Black List of best unproduced scripts, voted on by producers. "I did it as a telenovela as opposed to a soap opera. Telenovelas sometimes get better ratings than American shows, so it's like this big movement, this beautiful thing, so I wrote it that way," he says. He's also writing a comedy called "No Hearts Club" for Ron Howard and Brian Grazer's Imagine Entertainment. "I'm almost done with the first draft of that."
He has no idea whether he'll land in front of the camera in either film, but he's at the point of going for leads. "Independent films have been very kind to me to make me the lead of films," notes Schwartz, who is remembered as Nathan Meyerwitz, the author who gave away his family's secrets, in 2010's "Peep Show" with Sarah Silverman, Rainn Wilson and Michael C. Hall. "But in $20 million ones, I'm totally aware that if you put Justin Timberlake or Shia LaBeouf in a movie, it's going to sell a lot quicker than Ben Schwartz."
The way he's going, that could change before long.
WHOLE LOTTA HONORS: Esteemed producer George Stevens, Jr. and his producer-director son Michael are diving into work on this year's Kennedy Center Honors this week even though the show isn't until Dec. 2, with its usual end-of-year airdate. In fact, according to Stevens, they started work as soon as the announcement of this year's recipients was made Thursday. What a group! Dustin Hoffman, David Letterman, Chicago Bluesman Buddy Guy, ballerina Natalia Makarova -- and Led Zeppelin.
Stevens and Stevens have another big, all-star show airing Friday, Sept. 21, with PBS' "From Dust to Dreams: Opening Night at the Smith Center for the Performing Arts" special on PBS, hosted by Neil Patrick Harris. Jennifer Hudson, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard and Emmylou Harris are among the long list of performers on hand for the gala event that shows even Las Vegas can have an artsy side. Not a $5 shrimp cocktail in sight.

Jerry Jones said these same things the very same week Jerry fired Wade
If he means that, we're screwed.
Is this the dreaded vote of confidence?
Wasnt he behind WADE too and we know what happened.
I do actually believe though that Jason Garrett will remain our coach for awhile longer. Growing pains. Its a process.
Maybe this will be like when he said we wouldn't cut T.O and then we cut T.O right afterwards.

Ripoff Report
ARA Asset Recovery AssociatesARA Asset Recovery Associates, PO 4009, Schaumberg Schaumberg, Illinois United States of America
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
On Wednesday September 8th 2010 at 8.54hrs I received a call from a Tammy King, who introduced herself as an Attorney to collect a debt from my wife supposedly on behalf of MBA credit card, for the amount of $8,718.67. Her collection company is ARA Asset Recovery Associates, PO box 4009, Schaumburg, IL 60168-4009 Tel 888 310 1550, Fax 888 315 1550
I identified myself as the husband and asked when the alleged debt was incurred, as I was not aware she had or has had a credit card with a balance of that amount, or comes to that such a high level of credit. The woman replied the debt was incurred in 2004. and she then started running her mouth, I hung up.
A few minutes later, 9.02 she called back. She stated that $5,200 had been paid off the original debt which was $13,918.67. King said, "We are looking for $8,718. 67 which is owed, if you do not pay today, we will open proceedings to obtain a judgment and then put a lien on all your assets, plus make a record on your credit reports.
At the mention of $5,200 a bell rang in my head. I asked whether she was referring to a car that had been returned to seller in 1990. She went quiet for a moment, and then said that is correct. I asked her why she had referred to MBA credit card, no reply. I informed her that I had negotiated a settlement of the debt pertaining to the car for $5200 with a Mr. Green, in July of 2009. I now am aware this was a mistake, because I was not legally obliged to pay because of the statue of limitations on the original debt. I was assured The deal I made with "Mr. Green" By paying $5200 this debt would be wiped out. The company never sent me a receipt or a debt release, despite phone calls requesting same.
Now, fourteen months later ARA are calling me again to ask for the balance of the debt. ARA refuses to acknowledge my explanation I had settled the debt when I paid $5200 .00.
I said, before you do anything more, I would ask that you send me a complete breakdown of all you are alleging, plus confirm the name of the person I spoke to before, and who recorded my $5,200.
After consulting with someone who could be heard in the background, and replied $3,718.67
I asked, Can you not do better than that. Again she told me to hold on.
When she returned she quoted, $2,392.00 as full and final settlement, and would fax a settlement letter to me, but for it to be valid the money had to be paid by 14.00hrs Central Time that day.
I replied I will not pay, as I believed I had been tricked into sending the $5,200 on a promise of the debt being settled and receiving a final release. I considered this new approach was an effort to exhort further monies from us when we had in good faith settled this debt in July 2009 by a telephone negotiation. There is no way I would have parted with $5,200 as a part payment.
I made a mistake, I paid money I did not have to, now I am being harrassed again for money on a debt that was supposedly settled, what are my options now ,please.

Pan Pan - I am in a situation and could use some advice.
Its just over 24 hours now since an approximate 30-foot abandoned sailboat with no name sailed off her anchor and ran into another cement 50 foot sailboat which also has an absentee owner. The two have been doing the tango just 100 yards to the east of MISTRESS and there are several other small sailboats closure to them. Each time the tide changes or a wake comes our way, the two grind and crunch at each other while the rest of us sit by, fenders at the ready in case the first wayward boat takes flight again. The City marina has been made aware, but because neither boat owner pays dingy dockage, no one knows who the owners are. I called Tow Boat US yesterday, because they were the ones that brought the wayward boat here about three months ago when the owner called them because his engine failed. They did not remember which boat I was speaking of, and said once the storm we were dealing with went through, they would come out and check. To date, they have not come by. We called Fish and Wildlife and a report was filed yesterday with the numbers on both boats, but no one will be coming out because there is no danger to wildlife. Florida Marine Patrol I am told, has its boat out of commission and because there is no immediate threat to life and limb, it is not appropriate to call the Coast Guard. Therefore, we all sit here waiting for something more to happen. I have all my fenders on deck and a large metal cutter that was purchased to cut rigging wire should either or both come my way. If we touch the wayward boat, we become responsible for it and man oh man I sure don't want to be responsible for it. If it hits us, my best guess is the owner sure will not have the money needed for our repairs, considering he has not done any of his own and I have only seen him here twice since it was dropped off. I am also not interested in owning his boat as compensation of damage done to MISTRESS.
What do I do now? Do I just keep sitting here waiting for it to break loose from the other boat? Do I wait until the two of them are loose and call out a Pan Pan to the area? I have made everyone here in the south anchorage aware of what is happening so they can be prepared, but it seems rather silly to me to be not sleeping and watching these two boats dance the crunch tango.
I know that in the cover of darkness, there are all kinds of fun things we could think about doing, but I am hoping for some advice here that will really help those of us in the anchorage. If we set it free the chances it will return in just six hours with the next tide change is a very strong possibility. We are at slack tide with the swing going to happen any minute. Luckily, there has been little or no wind.
Please Help!
I am clueless in St. Augustine.

Save yourself!!!!!!!!!
pull anchor & find another cove until the matter is resolved .
-or- torpedos away
wow, anticipation. I would call both boat owners, get their take, and some money and use an anchor and skeg off the runaway vessel. Don't know what the legal responsibility would be. How bad is the 30ft shape-i might be interested if you become owner. Been looking for 30-40 foot fixer-upper. I feel for your situation. Good luck, Patrick
Thats another good idea
tie it off to your boat & go for salvage rights
CALL THE USCG. I don't know if they are or are not prohibited from responding, but generally they will find a way to respond IF they have any available resources, AND by doing so they can save lives or property--which would include preventing the oil spill and submerged wreck that this situation could easily cause.
If you couch it in those terms--preventing an imminent disaster with immediate threat to an environmental incident--they may be able to tow away both vessels, or at least add anchors to them.
For an overworked, underpaid, harried organization with too few resources, they still manage to go out of their way to outperform the "requirements".
Call 'em. Pitch it to them as preventing etc. as above. If that doesn't work, use the stick: Start down your list again, and at each agency, tell the person on the phone "OK, now what is your name and position please? I'm documenting these calls so we have a record of exactly who is responsible for the damages that are about to happen." If necessary, call the local waterside businesses or civic associations, local ward or other lowest-level political rep, mayor's office, etc. And again remind them--this is like a house on fire, if everyone ignores it, it could spread and there could be more losses and damage to the community (the waterfront).
(I'm hoping the one first call to the USCG does it.)
Be careful what you ask for. That 30 ft abandoned sailboat may have liens and liabilities you may not want to deal with - especially after a collision with the 50 footer.
Salvaging is not worth the risks - IMHO. Unless there is nowhere else to go, or you have responsibilities off that cove's shore, weigh anchor and move on - this is not your fight.
Call the coast guard, tell them you think you see oil leaking. They will be right out to take care of the situation.
HS...good thoughts! I like it. The only thing I would add is to call the local newspaper and tell them the story once you have all those names and agencies documented...they always like stories about government ineptitude!
Isn't that a navagational hazard and worthy of a security alert call
OK we made it through the last swing and so far so good. I cannot tell a lie, and I know both boats don't have engines therefore no fuel to spill. Sorry, if there was I sure would. About once every two months another motor boat threatens to sink and every authority known to mankind has been called, however, it is always the people here in the anchorage that do something about it. I know the Coast Guard goes above and beyond and for that reason alone I hate to involve them when life is not at stake. I DO NOT WANT TO SALVAGE ANYTHING. Remember, we just spent 6 & 1/2 years redoing MISTRESS. I WANT TO GO SAILING! Besides, it it usually impossible to get clear title.
Here is the other problem. This is a weekly occurrence here in lovely St. Augustine. I wish I was kidding or exaggerating, but we have abandoned boats all over the place. I have 4 anchors down and need to take care of a few more medical things before we can get the heck out. We set these anchors way south of everyone else, but hey, the tide turns and the wind changes, so nothing is certain. If a hurricane should come our way, there is no way we will stay here. While we know we can hold ground, it is all the abandoned boats or liveaboards that go no where and have old chafed gear, no engines, and an inability to know how to take care of their boats that has us worried. I have seen chain down here so long it looks like the kind of chain you would use for a small puppy dog in your backyard. This happens so often here, that none of the authorities will do anything, I know, I have called them all before and am very good at making sure they know I am documenting things, but alas, no results. The newspaper will do a story on it every so often when yet another boat sinks, but still nothing happens. Is St. Augustine the only one with this kind of problem?
PS I sit here fishing knowing I will land the biggest fish of my life and then the wayward boat is going to come my way. That's going to really piss me off.

Last November, Johann Hari went on a cruise with writers and editors from the National Review and then wrote about it for The New Republic. (Thanks to Matt Yglesias for the link.)
It's a creative way to pen an ideological broadside: Pay $1,200 for the privilege of hanging out with conservatives luminaries such as Rich Lowry, John O'Sullivan, Dinesh D'Souza, Bernard Lewis, Norman Podhoretz, William F. Buckley, and Robert Bork—and then make fun of them and their beliefs. It's the magazine-world equivalent of pantsing someone.
I'd be interested to see how the National Review responds. (I'm sure they're taking it with typical good humor.) But more importantly, I'd like to know one thing: Is this an effective ad campaign?
UPDATE: This one is good, too:

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
State and national Republicans are pushing Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.), whose "legitimate rape" remarks triggered a major backlash, to abandon his effort to unseat Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill. Akin, nevertheless, is vowing to stay in the race. The Republican money machine, however, is already choking off financial support for Akin's campaign.
Crossroads GPS, the biggest spending dark-money nonprofit in the 2012 elections, announced Monday it was pulling its ads from Missouri. On Tuesday, Crossroads' president Steven Law called on Akin to leave the race. "Rep. Akin faces a simple choice: Will he help Democrats hold the McCaskill seat and potentially the Senate majority by staying in the race, or will he help Republicans defeat Barack Obama's most reliable ally in the Senate by getting out?" he said in a statement emailed to reporters.
The National Republican Senatorial Committee also said it would no longer spend $5 million on the Missouri senate race unless Akin dropped out. An NRSC spokesman called Akin's campaign "misguided" and said that Akin should "do the right thing" and drop out.
Despite Akin's refusal to quit, Republican politicos say he's doomed anyway if he doesn't have the GOP's biggest spenders fighting on his behalf. "He's not going to get grassroots support from individuals; I don't think he'll get organized support by the party or 501(c)(4)s and I don't know how you survive without that kind of support," Bradley Blakeman, a GOP strategist, told Politico.
Outside groups that disclose their spending, such as super-PACs, have spent $4.8 million so far on the Missouri Senate race, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. However, dark-money groups including Crossroads GPS and Americans for Prosperity have spent upwards of $15 million on the race, much of it assailing McCaskill and her record. Americans for Prosperity spokesman Levi Russell declined to comment on whether Akin should quit the race. Russell added that AFP isn't currently running ads in Missouri, and he wouldn't comment about future ad spending there.
As I reported in my recent profile of McCaskill, Republicans see the Missouri Senate race as one of their best chances to oust a sitting Democrat. The GOP's attacks against began McCaskill as early as July 2011 and haven't stopped—until now. But after investing millions of dollars into the race, Akin's gaffe casts a cloud of uncertainty over more spending going forward. "If he remains the nominee, there's no reason to throw good money after bad by trying to win this seat," Crossroads co-founder Karl Rove said Tuesday on Fox News. "This is one of those unfortunate things that's so bad, so deplorable, so out-of-touch that there's no way to recover, in my opinion, from it."

I think this was offered only briefly. Some kind eBayer let me snatch it up (along with a bonus size mascara and small pouch) for about $13, when I think it retailed for the price of a square e/s pan, $20.
It is very hard to find. I'm feeling kinda giddy since it just arrived.
It includes Bone Shimmer, Copper Sand, Champagne Quartz, and Espresso.
This neutral palette has everything I want and offers the convenience of not having to pack around a much larger set to have the same four colors handy.
I seldom, if ever, spend $20 for a pan of eye shadow, but I would for this, considering what a workhorse it will be in my collection.

Posted by David Cooperstein on August 29, 2011
The competitive challenge that companies face today is driven by new issues that transcend classic distribution, brand, and product challenges. In the world we live in today, which Forrester defines as the Age of the Customer, firms need to look at how they deliver marketing and technology solutions that have visible impact on the customer.
Just the other day I was reminded of that when, sitting with a client, he described their competitive threat as coming from software products. That would be normal were it a tech company, but this was an airline! Yes, an airline that required technology and marketing to come together to define a customer experience that would differentiate them beyond seat configuration and route system. This highlighted to me the challenge that many companies face in this new era of disruption (for another view of how to think about this product challenge, see my colleague James McQuivey's recent report "Innovating the Adjacent Possible").
Charles Rutstein, Forrester's COO, sat down with my CIO Practice Leader peer Sharyn Leaver and me to discuss the role that CIOs and CMOs play in this customer-obsessed new world. See what we had to say here:
Posted by Nigel Fenwick on August 17, 2011
If you read my last research report and previous blog post, you'll know that I'm working with Luca Paderni on a series of research reports examining the IT and marketing relationship. In particular, we're examining what IT and marketing are doing to master the customer data flow (see Figure 1).
At the upcoming CIO and CMO forum, Luca and I will be presenting a keynote examining the readiness of IT and marketing teams in today's organizations to master the customer data flow. The really cool thing is that you can help shape the outcome by participating in a very short survey we are conducting in conjunction with Forbes. The survey asks a number of questions around the interaction between IT and marketing and can be answered by either IT or marketing professionals.

Along the way, Richard discovers that the Well of Wealth is not where he thought it would be, so he follows a different, more overgrown path, on which he meets an old woman, an optometrist, a plumber, a gardener, a fisherman, a rower, a musician, and an innkeeper. These intriguing and mysterious characters act as guides for Richard and share their wisdom. They have all built their wealth in very different ways, yet there is something about each that is common to all.
The story is intended to make the listener think more deeply about the dynamics of wealth creation. The keys to wealth are contained in the story behind the story, the lesson behind the lesson. To find these keys, the listener needs to become better at "seeing" - a philosophy the author sums up as, "What you see is always what you get."

"Highly recommended"
I loved this book because it gives such a simple meaning to asking better questions
"Meanings behind the stories"
I absolutely love the hidden meanings behind the story. Every time I listen to it I find something new. I recommend listening many times over.
"Life Changing"
Easily the greatest short story I have ever read/listened to. I promise you after you listen to this and really soak it in that it will change your life.
If you really want to revolutionize how you look at money...this is it.
"This book is now in my personal top 5 books ever."
It is a story, not an instruction. And it is jam-packed with wisdom and life lessons that you can easily apply in every day life.
It is pretty short. Just 2 hours. But you will want to listen to it 4-5 times. It is that good.
Great story and perfect voicing. I enjoy listening to it so much. I have listened for 4 times already.
"first time through"
so many things to listen to again. such a great story with so many things to implement in real life. I highly recommend this book to anyone that is looking for an uplifting, motivating, inspiring, and applicable story.
"If you only read 1 book make it this one."
I have listened to Wink and Grow Rich over and over, each time I take out new lessons and start new thought processes. You need to read it with an open mind which is prepared to question your own beliefs and understandings. All the concepts are so obvious and common sense, plus you would have heard them before. I always recommend this book to everybody.
This is life guys but not as you know it.
"No - its not just another wanna be business fable"
I was orginally sceptical - but something was different in this when I listened to the sample. The story is about a 9 year old boy - (that seems bit too young). But the concepts spread thru the book are very relevant to all of us who seek to succeed and grow rich. It is about becoming rich materially and spiritually. It ends with a puzzle = leaving it to you to solve by listening again and again. I have only done my first listening. Will post another review if I solve and get point number 30 in Richards note book.
Report Inappropriate Content

NEW YORK (MainStreet) – The Kardashian Kard is no more.
The prepaid debit card, which came emblazoned with the image of the inexplicably famous Kardashian sisters, was pulled off the market Monday after the sisters terminated their marketing relationship with the card's issuer, University National Bank. The breakup came after weeks of controversy surrounding the card's exorbitant fees, culminating in the Connecticut Attorney General's office announcing an investigation into whether the card violated state consumer protection laws.
The card was rightly excoriated for its laundry list of fees, including a $99.50 charge for the first year and additional fees for ATM use and customer service calls. But the Kardashian Kard was by no means the only prepaid card sticking its customers with hefty fees.
Prepaid debit cards are essentially gift cards that can be 'reloaded.' Once loaded with cash, they can be used like debit cards, only without being linked to a checking account. They're typically used by people who have neither a credit card (usually because of poor or insufficient credit history) nor a debit card (because they don't have a checking account). A prepaid card gives these consumers all the convenience of plastic, including the ability to make online purchases and the freedom from wads of cash or unwieldy checkbooks. However, this convenience comes with a price: activation fees as high as $19.95, monthly fees as high as $9.95 and a litany of other hidden fees, according to NerdWallet.com, which tracks fee and reward info for credit cards.
"I still don't understand why anyone would get a prepaid card," says NerdWallet founder and CEO Tim Chen. "Most people who can get one can also get a checking account."

If you're a Canadian and you're waiting to get your hands on a Blackberry 10 device then you're in luck. Well, that is of course if you have service with Rogers. Currently you can reserve, or pre-order, your future Blackberry 10 handset online through Rogers. The promotion started on December 17 and requires just a $40 down payment.
There are stipulations though. You have to have a fully registered My Rogers account, and you can only reserve one device per mobile number. Unfortunately, if you were planning on pre-ordering more than one Blackberry 10 device you won't be able to. Your Rogers account must also be in good standing.
Once you've placed your pre-order, you are placed in an existing queue to get a BB10 device at launch. This does not necessarily mean that you will receive your device right at launch, but you will receive a device as soon as everyone before you in the queue has.
In addition, you can pick up your new device in a Rogers store when BB10 finally launches.
Much as, you would expect, Rogers issued a press release to the public, outlining the new BB10 pre-order system.
Rogers Press Release
Rogers to Carry BlackBerry 10 in Early 2013 on LTE Network Rogers customers among first in the world to reserve BlackBerry 10 on Rogers Reservation System starting today
BlackBerry 10 all-touch device to be powered by Canada's fastest LTE network in the most places
TORONTO, Dec. 17, 2012 /CNW/ – Rogers Communications, Canada's leading diversified communications and media company, announced today it will offer customers BlackBerry 10 in early 2013 on the Rogers LTE network, and priority access to beat the line and reserve a device starting today through the Rogers Reservation System. Rogers customers will be among the first in the world to reserve BlackBerry 10 devices in advance of retail availability.
"Building on our history of innovative firsts, we are excited to offer our customers the opportunity to be among the first in the world to reserve their BlackBerry 10 device," said John Boynton, executive vice president marketing, chief marketing officer, Rogers Communications. "Rogers was the first carrier in Canada to launch BlackBerry, and the first in Canada to launch an LTE network. We look forward to adding BlackBerry 10 to the largest selection of LTE devices available in Canada – all powered by the Rogers LTE network, Canada's fastest network in the most places*."
The Rogers Reservation System is available to current Rogers wireless customers across Canada. Customers can reserve a device by visiting Rogers.com under My Account. Full details about BlackBerry 10 including, pricing, availability and specifications, will be announced in early 2013. For more information, visit: http://www.blackberry.com/BlackBerry10.
*Based on tests comparing download speeds on the Rogers LTE network vs. competitors' LTE network with Rogers LTE coverage area.
Other Carriers That Are Offering BB10 Pre-Orders
Unfortunately, there are no US carriers allowing BB10 device pre-orders at this time. However, some mobile carriers in the UK are allowing you to register your personal information so that they can notify you as soon as BB10 is available. To be more specific, Carphone Warehouse and Phones 4U in the UK are allowing BB10 registrations currently.
If you're interested in pre-ordering from Rogers, or registering your information with the other two UK carriers see the relevant links below. Otherwise, the rest of you will just have to wait a little while longer. As of today there are just 41 days left until the launch of Blackberry 10 on January 31st.
You can expect more mobile carriers to start allowing device pre-orders sometime soon.
If you'd like to pre-order a BB10 device, through Rogers you can do so here.
If you'd like to register your information to be notified about BB10 devices, through Carphone Warehouse in the UK you can do so here.
If you'd like to register your information to be notified about BB10 devices, through Phones4U in the UK you can do so here.

Huh...What Did You Say? I Wasn't Listening?
Have you ever wondered how engaged your students really are? What are they thinking as you talk? Trying to reach out to them with your words to tell them everything they need to know.
This is exactly what I asked myself when I started working on my professional development plan this past fall. I wanted to know how I could increase student engagement and create an environment which supported independent thinking.
Now, it's important for you to know that I'm a reading interventionist. I have small groups in my own classroom with little to no distractions. Even when I do push into a classroom, I only work with 1 maybe 3 students at a time. You would think engagement would not be something I would have to focus on.
Well I do. I was finding students were working so hard trying to compensate for some sensory need they didn't have room in their executive functions to engage. They would act impulsively before I even finished giving directions because their auditory memory is only working at half speed and only heard "your going to circle..."
I knew I needed to do something different if I wanted to see things change. I began experimenting with my older students who could read well enough, by posting questions and directions on my walls, table, or even outside the door so they knew what to do when they walked in. I quit talking so much. I bit my tongue when they were making decisions that I knew weren't going to work.
Guess what, they figured it out on their own. They became problem solvers. They became more comfortable taking some risks because they knew they would eventually figure it out. I'm beginning to see some self regulated thinkers. Minds who ask questions when they need more information. Minds that ask for more when they've figured out step one and are ready for more.
Stay tuned for some of the activities that I used to create these engaged, independent- thinking, little minds.

Tara-this is a great post. It made me think of one child in particular...he reads fluently, but really struggles with comprehension. I have wondered about ADD for a long time, but he lacks motivation at times too. When he gets frustrated, he shuts down. I am curious what works for you that might work for me. My child loves the computer, so we've worked out more time there. I've also made some sideline deals with him to work on increasing effort. Baby steps... Thanks for posting this.ReplyDelete
I certainly don't have all the answers but this is something I've been interested for several years now because my daughter was diagnosed with sensory disorders and was delayed in speech and language. After a lot of research (and tears) I discovered, slowing down and listening to her was my best bet. After seeing the changes she has made in the last year I thought I would start doing the same thing with a few of my students. I have to admit there have been a lot of trial and error moments. I've had to let go of my schedule and some control. What has worked best for me is to always have your goal in mind (what we do naturally) however, I told my kids that goal and we worked together to figure out how we needed to get there. I have a group of third graders who sound a lot like your kiddo. We decided the best way to study story elements was to become an author ourselves. They got out their white boards and the ideas flowed freely (there's something about a whiteboard that envokes risk taking). I used mentor texts to model each element and they were free to listen to the story so when it came time to think about the characters or the setting or problem or solution it was easy. They were sucessful! This too encouraged risk taking. While they read I encouraged them to listen to themselves like they listen to me and I allowed them to practice that independently before they had to do it in a small group. Again, they were able to feel success. When a classmate was still struggling to figure it out another one was able to help them without my guidance. They were having comprehension discussions, successfully! This certainly didn't happen over night and the best advice I could give you would be to listen, try new things, and don't give up. Let them know that you are learning along side them and ask for their help. When they become apart of your team they will try harder! Best of luck to you and yours! I look forward to sharing ideas!ReplyDelete

Primaries, Immigration, and an Appetite for Change
Michele Waslin: Immigrant advocates will be asking themselves what role immigration played in the primaries. The fact is that the immigration issue probably plays a small role, if any. Quite frankly, Members don't have much of a record on the issue for voters to base their votes on because Congress has been too scared to take on the issue and see what their constituents say about it. But the sentiments behind the immigration debate echo what we saw in the polls—the public has grown tired with inaction.

Buttons is a sweet and social girl that loves attention. She is FIV+ but that only means I'm extra special. FIV cats live long, happy lives even with other non FIV cats. She is currently at a foster home with other cats having a lot of fun waiting for her forever family.
~~To see our available cats and kittens, or to fill out an application, please visit us at www.HeavenlyPawsShelter.com or call 717-343-7669. Please consider visiting some of our cats at Petco - West Manchester Town Center, PetValu - Queensgate Shopping Center, PetValu - Shrewsbury Commons, PetValu - York Marketplace and Cape Horn Pets in Red Lion.
Our business office is located in Seven Valleys. However, we are a network of foster homes in various locations throughout York County. We are all NON-paid volunteers and our shelter is solely run by donations.
Thank you for looking us up.
Visit with our kitties at any of our three retail satellite locations:
Petco West Manchester Town Center in west York,
Petvalu York at Queensgate and
Petvalu Shrewsbury at Shrewsbury Commons.
Or you can call 717-343-7669 to set up a time to meet the kitties at our Heavenly Paws Main Shelter or one of our foster homes.
The adoption fee is $120 for kittens.
Adults vary from $40-$100.
The adoption fee covers them being tested for leukemia and aids, their initial vaccines(distemper), a vet check-up, treatment for fleas, worms, parasites, ear mites, and their nails trimmed. If the cat/kitten is old enough they may have more done for them, such as, rabies vaccine and second distemper vaccine.
Also if they are old enough, they will be spayed or neutered prior to adoption. If they are not spayed or neutered prior to adoption, you will be given a spay/neuter certificate for one of our local vets. If you choose to use your own vet, we will take $20 off the adoption fee.
Our fees are very reasonable, considering you get about $300-500 worth of pet care when you adopt from us. Since we are non-profit, any donations and adoption fees are a tax-write off for you.
Heavenly Paws ADOPTION APPLICATION: https://heavenlypaws.wordpress.com/adoption-application/
Our website is www.HeavenlyPawsShelter.com. We are also referring people to visit us at www.Petfinder.com and type in Heavenly Paws Shelter.

Other organizations are rescue groups run by busy volunteers who may take a while to reply.
