The easiest way to create a table seating plan
for your wedding, celebration or event
The table plan is an important part of any Masonic dinner. But creating a table plan can be time-consuming if you don't have the right tool for the job. Using scraps of paper or cutting and pasting in Excel is time-consuming and error prone.
PerfectTablePlan is designed specifically for table planning and is used by many Masonic lodges in the UK and worldwide.
This is Brilliant and will save many hours. I would recommend this to any Masonic organisation.Robin, Norwich, UK
Used your software for our Lodge Installation - what an amazing bit of kit! I got the hang of it in no time at all, it was very easy to use and saved me hours of work. And better still, I was able to add extra visitors an hour before we started and still print off a very professional seating plan. Well done - a tremendous piece of software, I wish you well. I won't be going back to the old way of spreading multi-coloured name cards all over my living room floor!Martin, Lodge Secretary, Conister, UK
Just a note to say I have used Perfect Table Plan for the first time on Saturday Last, for a Masonic Ladies Night. It made the job so much easier than having bits of paper with names everywhere - well impressed. I would recommend it to anyone.Roy Tebbitts, Secretary, Colwyn Lodge
I would be lost without your program as I am a dining secretary for a Masonic lodge, it has also helped me on planning our Ladies night.Les, Portsmouth, England
Extremely simple to use, containing many helpful features, and a great time-saver. It is particularly useful to Masonic Lodges in arranging their Festive Board seating - no last minute panics. If there are last minute changes, the table plan seating can be changed in seconds. A boon to all Lodge Secretaries, and the table layout can consist of as many sprigs as required.Harry, Hetfordshire, England
The program saved my life and a lot of hard manual work for a big Masonic event; I actually printed the plan on the morning of the event with a lot of changes that happened the night before... Great Program, keep up the good work.Leon, Lancashire, England
The product is truly excellent and covers just about every guest dining arrangements one could wish for. I am only at the start of my learning how to use many of the features this product has to offer and I am confident it will be of great use to me as a Dining Secretary.Michael, Berkshire, England
Thanks for a great program. My wife and I are both the social secretaries for our respective Masonic Lodges and this program will make our lives so much easier in planning the many functions we organise, some with over 200 guests.Mike, Lodge Secretary, Costa Del Sol, Spain

David Horowitz Has a ListBreaking News
Caroline Higgins is 66 years old, and at 5'2" she's not a daunting figure. Walking on the Earlham College campus last week, she ran into one of her students, a football player who very much towers over her. She mentioned that she was about to be named to a list of the "101 most dangerous academics in America."
Higgins said that her student just started laughing — and that for anyone who knows her, "dangerous" just isn't the word that comes to mind. She teaches peace studies.
But today, with the release of David Horowitz's new book, The Professors: The 101 Most Dangerous Academics in America, Caroline Higgins finds herself in elite company. She makes the list along with such big name academic stars as Derrick Bell, Michael Bérubé, bell hooks, Noam Chomsky and Eric Foner. Horowitz, a one-time '60s radical, includes plenty of '60s radicals who didn't have the conversion experience he did, so Angela Davis and Bernadine Dohrn make the list, of course, along with the likes of Ward Churchill and a who's who in Middle Eastern studies.
Most of the 377-page book consists of short essays on each professor – they are in alphabetical order and are not ranked according to their relative danger levels, although there are cross-listings so a reader can jump to scholars with similar ideas.
Whether to laugh at the book, like Higgins's student, or to take it seriously, has been the subject of much discussion among academic groups and those who made the list in recent weeks. Some fear taking Horowitz too seriously will only legitimize his sometimes breathless attacks. (The book jacket promises information about professors who "say they want to kill white people," "support Osama bin Laden," and "defend pedophilia.")
Some professors worry that they really don't gain much by discussing a book that can have them explaining that, no, they are not murdering, pro-terrorist, child molesters. And several said that they hoped the press would just ignore the book. Others who are named — and academic groups that represent them — disagree. They say that a book with blurbs by Harvard professors, a Congressman, and a talk show host is going to cause a splash. With Horowitz's list likely to outsell Derek Bok's new book, academics who just view The Professors as a joke risk having their ideas distorted and losing credibility as Horowitz defines their work for large audiences of the people who don't frequent faculty clubs.
On Friday, a new coalition of academic groups — called Free Exchange on Campus — issued a joint denunciation of The Professors as "a blacklist" that was attempting to intimidate leading thinkers on campuses. The coalition includes the three groups that represent more faculty members than any other organizations: the American Association of University Professors, the American Federation of Teachers, and the National Education Association. Others involved in the coalition include the American Civil Liberties Union and the United States Student Association.

This story neglects the large number of professors who, like me, must feel devastated that a serial butcher of truth such as Horowitz has neglected to put us on the list. I shall have to return to the classroom and encourage more uprisings.

The Barclays Premier League returns to full action this weekend, with Manchester City and Liverpool headlining the English fixtures.
The defending English champions, Manchester City, will attempt to keep this season's title hopes alive with a win on Sunday against Brendan Rodgers' transitioning side. Manchester City have only beaten Liverpool a single time in their last five meetings, however, so earning three points will be no easy task for Roberto Mancini's crew.
Elsewhere in the league, Demba Ba will return to St. James' Park for the first time since his £7m move to West-London.
Newcastle, who sit just four points above the relegation zone, will hope their recent splurge in January's transfer window will prevent Ba from getting the last laugh.
If the Premier League isn't your cup of tea, don't fret – the rest of the world will be holding its fair share of soccer matches as well.
The Africa Cup of Nations will kick into a new gear on Saturday, when Ghana and the Cape Verde Islands begin the tournament's quarter-final action live on ESPN3.
In Spain, table-leaders Barcelona will visit Valencia and Grenada will host Real Madrid.

Rains, chai and moon watching with Kishore Da!
- Ankita Shukla
- Aug 05, 2011, 00:48 AM IST
Tere bina zindagi se koyi, shikwa, toh nahi, shikwa nahi…
Tere bina zindagi bhi lekin, zindagi, toh nahi, zindagi nahi…
This beautiful couplet, written by Gulzar and put to rhythm by the legendary music director, late RD Burman, is something that sums up August 4 just aptly. Though it's just another Thursday, there's something in the air today. Some love, fun, poetry and most importantly some romanticism!
Switched onto the radio in the morning, on my way to work and my ears got what they'd been longing for, since always. It was a certain Mr. Abhas Kumar Ganguly's eighty-third birth anniversary and the entire country seemed to be in a celebratory mood. I thought of sticking around and not changing the channel and God, I'm so glad I didn't! Five minutes flat into the MHz and the oblivious me, was lip-syncing, tapping fingers, doodling on the moisture laden windows of my car, shaking my head in snake like motions, yodeling and doing everything possible that would prove me to be a certified moron, like I cared! Talking about yodeling, I am a self confessed bad singer, but for once I didn't care if I was at my shrieking best and no one else cared either, for it was unison of sorts. Each person sitting on the driver's seat was making a bigger fool out of himself and that's the least we could do for Kishore Da. Yes, it's the great Kishore Kumar's birthday today and this is just a humble attempt to uncover what this man of melody, means to me and to each of us for that matter.
Rains are not rains without an awe-inspiring Rim Jhim gire saawan, sulagh sulagh jaye mannplaying in the background and a cup of steaming hot chai. With each note hitting like the quintessential drops of rain, what else has had the power to deviate one from the suffocating intricacies of life? Nothing that I know of. The only thing that humbles the delectable bowl of piping hot pakodas, are these words of magic that dissolve in your ears even better than the pakodas would in your mouth.
Once, I was going through one of my many low phases in life and all I required to come out of it, was a 'Best of Kishore Kumar' CD. Well, here's the trick, at first I heard the Side A of the CD that had all of Da's sad songs one can possibly think of, from- Zindagi ke safar mein guzar jaate hain… to Meri bheegi bheegi si palkon mein reh gayeand that completely finished me, by finishing I mean, I was down, out and set for Side B and one song down (Side B), I was getting a grip on my life already. Every word of Apni toh jaise taise, thodi aise ya waise… cease-fired my angst. Oh yeah, I was back and that too with a bang. And, by the time the CD reached its final track, Aaj rapat jaye toh humein na uthaiyo, I was ready to make many people fall flat on their nose and force them to slither in the mud, just like Amitabh Bachchan and late Smita Patil did in the song. Whoa! That's the Kishore Kumar therapy for you and it comes with a 100% guarantee!
Talking about seeking inspiration from songs, who amongst us has not done that? Of course, I also listen to Mohit Chauhan's velvet voice to get over my past troubles and gulp down the abominable guilt that's been shadowing me forever, but boss, none can touch Kishore and I vouch for that. I mean, who can beat- Hum bewafa har giz na the, par hum wafaa kar na sake? NOBODY. Period
Kishore Da's one man, who didn't die in his death, but continued to live in each one of us. Guess he'd be getting a lease of life, every time we buy his CDs, ask the DJ at a posh disc with Englsih speaking people clustered, to play- Pyaar mein dil pe maar de goli and make the crowd break into a cheer and most importantly, when we gaze at the moon every night with Tum aa gaye ho noor aa gaya hai, playing in the background. Kishore Da's here to stay, at least for me, for he's been with me through my confessions of love, heartbreaks, disappointments and hip shaking moments, all of which I cherish the most, just the way I cherish the creator of all these moments. Kishore Da, hope you're there for every new beginning and every due ending.

Marty St. Louis appreciation night saw St. Louis squarely in the spotlight.
Like so many times before, with so many eyes watching him, he found a way to deliver.
After brushing aside an emotional pregame ceremony to honor St. Louis for appearing in 1,000 career games, the captain promptly went out and scored a pair of goals and added an assist to help lift the Tampa Bay Lightning to a 5-0 victory against the New York Rangers in front of an announced sellout crowd of 19,204 at The Forum.
"It was pretty emotional, the whole presentation,'' St. Louis said of the celebration. "Seeing my parents, my wife, my kids, and then when they started the video, I couldn't watch and I kind of lost it (emotionally). It was a special night with all the messages on the JumboTron, from people who helped me along the way — players, coaches, GMs. It was a special night. And to be able to win the game and contribute ... I felt like myself tonight, like a flash from the past.''
Rookie Nikita Kucherov ended up with the game-winning goal, scoring his first career goal, which came on his first career shift and his first shot. Teddy Purcell scored twice and added an assist, and Valtteri Filppula had a pair of assists to help Tampa Bay snap a four-game winless streak.
Ben Bishop stopped 37 shots to record his second shutout of the season and fifth of his career as the Lightning won their sixth consecutive game at home while snapping New York's six-game road winning streak. Bishop improved to 4-0 all-time against the Rangers, posting his second career shutout against New York, and has allowed three goals in four games against the Rangers.
Since suffering back-to-back losses for the first time this season, Bishop has responded in the past two games, stopping 76 of 77 shots while allowing one goal.
But not even Bishop's performance was enough to take the spotlight away from St. Louis.
"Guys like that rise to the occasion and sure enough he goes out there and scores two goals after that ceremony, and I guess we should expect nothing less from him,'' Bishop said. "He worked a lot of years to get to here, so one little shutout (from me) is not going to overlook that.''
Kucherov, called up Sunday to make his NHL debut after being second overall in scoring in the American Hockey League, wasted no time showing what he can bring, getting a wrist shot off a feed from Purcell from the end boards that eluded New York goaltender Henrik Lundqvist 2:12 into the game.

Silver Maple
(Acer saccharinum)
Leaves are opposite simple
click on a county
Silver maple is the fastest growing maple either native or planted in Iowa. The leaves are opposite, simple, and palmately lobed with five lobes. The lobes are often very deep; the margins of the leaves are toothed and the upper surface is bright green while the lower surface is silvery, white in color. The pale undersurface often gives the tree a "silvery" appearance from a distance in the gentle breezes. Winter twigs are rather slender, dull red or red-brown in color with v-shaped leaf scars.
The buds are bright red to dark reddish purple, 1/8 to 1/4 inch in length. The flower buds are formed in conspicuous clumps. The tree flowers very early in the spring; flowers are tiny, red in color and often hidden by the bud scales. The fruit is a broad angle double samara, 1-2 1/2 inches long and matures in late spring or early summer. The bark is smooth, light gray on young trees; it eventually separates into irregular rows of long, scaly, ashy colored plates on older trees. Silver maple is native throughout Iowa.
It can be found on stream banks and floodplains and is a common component of the bottomland forests. It is usually found in association with cottonwoods, willows, boxelder, green ash, hackberry, and black walnut. It prefers moist locations such as these bottomlands, but is quite tolerant of a wide range of sites from moderately wet to quite sandy and dry. Silver maple is a fast growing tree, often growing 4-6 feet in height each year. It is one of the largest trees in Iowa attaining heights of often a 100 feet and from 4-5 feet in diameter.
Fall color of silver maple ranges from green-yellow brown to yellow to brown. As a shade tree silver maple has been used extensively in Iowa, mostly because of its fast growth rate. This is a desirable characteristic, but it tends to be somewhat susceptible to wind damage and breakage later in life. Some of these problems can be avoided if properly pruned when young to promote a single leader and elimination of weak branches.
There are several horticultural selections to choose from when using silver maple as a shade tree. The wood of silver maple is usually sold as soft maple. It is light in color and weight. Its uses range from furniture and veneer to boxes, crates and pallets.

John Ford Made Westerns: Filming the Legend in the Sound Era

April 2001
BeschreibungThe Western is arguably the most popular and enduring form in cinematic history, and the acknowledged master of that genre was John Ford. His Westerns, including The Searchers, Stagecoach, and The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, have had an enormous influence on contemporary U.S. films, from Star Wars to Taxi Driver.In John Ford Made Westerns, nine major essays by prominent scholars of Hollywood film situate the sound-era Westerns of John Ford within contemporary critical contexts and regard them from fresh perspectives. These range from examining Ford's relation to other art forms (most notably literature, painting, and music) to exploring the development of the director's reputation as a director of Westerns. While giving attention to film style and structure, the volume also treats the ways in which these much-loved films engage with notions of masculinity and gender roles, capitalism and community, as well as racial, sexual, and national identity.

Elegant Buttermilk Cinnamon Blueberry Muffins
Recipe by Cooking to Perfection
These muffins are very, very rich. Almost like a cake, you can only eat one, but wish you could have another. The cinnamon/sugar topping makes these muffins a beautiful presentation. Any muffin lover will appreciate these chewy and heavenly treats. (From "In The Sweet Kitchen" cookbook)
Top Review by Chef*Lee
Good blueberry muffins!! They aren't dense like a rich cake but they are like eating a snack cake with the buttery sugar topping on them! I got 24 regular size muffins with this batter and I baked mine for 20 minutes. I tried dipping a few in regular sugar and some in turbinado sugar. Both were pretty and tasted great on the muffins! These really had a special flavor with all the spices in the mix, loved them, thanks!

About Doris Giller
(January 22, 1931-April 25, 1993)
Doris Giller began her career as a secretary with a supermarket chain, rose to be a reporter and editor at three of Canada's major daily newspapers and made her mark in Canada's literary community.
Born and raised in Montreal, Doris joined the staff of the Montreal Star in 1963 as a reporter and feature writer. With the Star until its demise in 1979, Doris went on to hold positions as Night Editor and Lifestyles Editor and became the first female Entertainment Editor at the paper. In 1972, while Doris was in Israel, she acted as the Star's Israeli correspondent, filing stories on events including the impact of the Munich Olympic disaster on Israelis.
In 1981, Doris was hired as the Book Review Editor at the Montreal Gazette, where she created an entirely new and extensive Book Review section. During her four years at the paper, Doris established a new standard for book reviews and successfully initiated contributions from major literary figures including Pierre Bourgault, Hugh MacLennan, Irving Layton and Mordecai Richler.
Doris and her husband Jack Rabinovitch moved to Toronto in 1985. In 1988 Doris joined the Toronto Star as Assistant Book Editor and launched her regular column, Reading Habits, which became a mainstay of the Star's book pages. After a struggle with cancer, Doris Giller passed away on April 25, 1993.

Born, educated and raised in Montreal, Jack Rabinovitch graduated from McGill University in 1952 with a B.A. in Honours English.
His early experience was as a cub reporter, speechwriter, food retailing and distribution executive and subsequently as an independent builder and real estate developer.
Jack joined Trizec Corporation in 1972 as a project manager and was then appointed Executive Vice-President in 1986, responsible for the profitability and strategic planning of the Eastern North American region. In the next seven years, he was responsible for the planning, development, construction, leasing and financing of 6 million square feet of commercial, retail and hotel space. In addition, he developed many joint ventures with major Fortune 500 companies like Xerox, General Motors, Hilton International and Sheraton Corporation.
He also served on the Board of Directors of the Edper Group of companies.
He resigned his corporate duties in 1993 when his wife was stricken with cancer.
Jack joined the Board of the Princess Margaret Hospital in late 1986 and began the significant task of planning, developing and constructing the new Princess Margaret Hospital on University Avenue in Toronto. The new hospital was completed in 1993 – on time and under budget – a first in the province of Ontario. Today, the new Princess Margaret Hospital is the most complete and comprehensive cancer care centre in Canada. Jack is currently on the Board of the Princess Margaret Hospital Foundation. He is also on the Board of the MaRS (Medical and Related Science) Project.
Jack founded The Giller Prize in 1994 to honour the memory of his late wife Doris Giller, an outstanding literary journalist who died of cancer in April 1993. He was assisted by several friends – most notably the late Mordecai Richler, author Alice Munro, and academic David Staines – in building the Prize's creative template.
In 2005, The Giller Prize teamed up with Scotiabank to create the Scotiabank Giller Prize. It is the first ever co-sponsorship for Canada's richest literary award for fiction. Under the new agreement, the purse doubled growing to Cdn. $50,000 with $40,000 going to the winner, and $2,500 being given to each of the four finalists. In 2008, the purse increased again, providing the winning author with $50,000 and each finalist with $5,000.
The Scotiabank Giller Prize is dedicated to celebrating the best in Canadian fiction each year, and to enhancing marketing efforts in bringing these books to the attention of all Canadians. Jack is currently the President of Nodel Investments Ltd., a real estate/venture capital firm. Jack has been honoured with several awards for his contributions to Canada's literary and civic landscape.
- Canadian Booksellers Association Lifetime Achievement Award – 2013
- Officer of the Order of Canada – 2009
- Honorary Doctorate LLD, Wilfred Laurier University – 2007
- Honorary Doctorate LLD, McGill University – 2005
- Honorary Doctorate LLD, University of Toronto – 2002
- The Order of Canada – 2000
- Maclean's Magazine 'Man of the Year' – 1999
- The Order of Ontario – 1997
Jack has lived in Toronto since 1986. He has three daughters – Noni, Daphna and Elana – and three grandchildren – Jacob, Saffi and Luca
About Elana Rabinovitch, Executive Director
Elana Rabinovitch received her Honours B.A. (English literature) from Concordia University and continued her postgraduate studies at Carleton University's School of Journalism.
After stints as a cub reporter and freelance writer, Elana worked as a researcher and reporter for Southam News in Toronto. In the late 1980's, Elana moved into broadcast journalism, working as an editorial intern, writer, reporter and producer at CBC Television News, CBC National News and CBC Television's The Journal.
While at the CBC, Elana helped cover news stories like the first Persian Gulf War, the École Polytechnique massacre in Montreal, the economic recession, the crumbling of the Berlin Wall, and more.
In the early 1990's, Elana was offered the job of managing the Media Relations department at Sony Music Canada, a rare and exciting opportunity to mix music and media. At Sony, she worked with an array of artists like Oasis, Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, Mariah Carey and others.
Elana then moved over to PolyGram as Director of Artist and Media Relations to work with its historic suite of labels – A&M, Island Records and Motown. While there, she helped promote and market some of the finest established and emerging artists in the world like U2, Mary J. Blige, PJ Harvey, Michael Jackson and more.
Ten years ago, Elana took over the running of the Scotiabank Giller Prize. Her father, Jack Rabinovitch, had founded the prize in 1994 as a lasting tribute to his late wife Doris Giller, an exceptional literary journalist.
Words, music, literature and reportage remain pivotal for Elana. As Executive Director of the Scotiabank Giller Prize she is committed to broadening its scope and evolving it with a changing digital world. Just as significantly, she is working to ensure that the founding principle of the Prize – to present the finest Canadian fiction to a broad and diverse audience – remains its core purpose.
Elana lives in Toronto with her son, Luca. She is President of Propaganda Ink, a marketing and media relations company, and serves on the board of World Literacy Canada.

8. Science And Charity
Chi sta nel mondo un par d'ore contento,
Ne gli vien tolta, ovver contaminata,
Quella sua pace in veruno momento,
Puo dir che Giove drittamente il guata.
The Reverend Doctor Folliott took his departure about ten o'clock, to walk home
to his vicarage. There was no moon, but the night was bright and clear, and
afforded him as much light as he needed. He paused a moment by the Roman
camp to listen to the nightingale; repeated to himself a passage of Sophocles;
proceeded through the park gate, and entered the narrow lane that led to the
village. He walked on in a very pleasant mood of the state called reverie; in which
fish and wine, Greek and political economy, the Sleeping Venus he had left
behind, and poor dear Mrs. Folliott, to whose fond arms he was returning,
passed, as in a camera obscura, over the tablets of his imagination. Presently
the image of Mr. Eavesdrop, with a printed sketch of the Reverend Doctor F.,
presented itself before him, and he began mechanically to flourish his bamboo.
The movement was prompted by his good genius, for the uplifted bamboo
received the blow of a ponderous cudgel, which was intended for his head. The
reverend gentleman recoiled two or three paces, and saw before him a couple of
ruffians, who were preparing to renew the attack, but whom, with two swings of
his bamboo, he laid with cracked sconces on the earth, where he proceeded to
deal with them like corn beneath the flail of the thresher. One of them drew a
pistol, which went off in the very act of being struck aside by the bamboo, and
lodged a bullet in the brain of the other. There was then only one enemy, who
vainly struggled to rise, every effort being attended with a new and more signal
prostration. The fellow roared for mercy. "Mercy, rascal!" cried the divine; "what
mercy were you going to show me, villain? What! I warrant me, you thought it
would be an easy matter, and no sin, to rob and murder a parson on his way
home from dinner. You said to yourself, doubtless, "We'll waylay the fat parson
(you irreverent knave), as he waddles home (you disparaging ruffian), half-seas-
over, (you calumnious vagabond)." And with every dyslogistic term, which he
supposed had been applied to himself, he inflicted a new bruise on his rolling and
roaring antagonist. "Ah, rogue!" he proceeded, "you can roar now, marauder; you
were silent enough when you devoted my brains to dispersion under your cudgel.
But seeing that I cannot bind you, and that I intend you not to escape, and that it
would be dangerous to let you rise, I will disable you in all your members. I will
contund you as Thestylis did strong smelling herbs, in the quality whereof you do
most gravely partake, as my nose beareth testimony, ill weed that you are. I will
beat you to a jelly, and I will then roll you into the ditch, to lie till the constable
comes for you, thief."
"Hold! hold! reverend sir," exclaimed the penitent culprit, "I am disabled already
in every finger, and in every joint. I will roll myself into the ditch, reverend sir."
"Stir not, rascal," returned the divine, "stir not so much as the quietest leaf above
you, or my bamboo rebounds on your body, like hail in a thunder-storm. Confess,

Doctors riding out insurance hikes By SCOTT LAUTENSCHLAGER Staff Writer There's good and bad news for pregnant women who rely on Annapolis-area doctors for care. On the plus rising malpractice insur- ance premiums are not causing obstetricians to stampede out of the baby business But they have raised their fees to cover higher insurance costs. The leading provider of malpractice insur- ance in Maryland recently filed a proposal to raise premiums an average of 50 percent The which must be approved by state would be on top of a 29 percent average boost last year. Obstetricians predicted last year that their statewide ranks would diminish by up to 20 percent if insurance rates kept going up And one Annapolis doctor did quit obste- trics this spring The recent rate increase proposal by The Medical Mutual Liability Insurance Society of Maryland spurred new warnings that doctors will be driven out of business. But none of the 14 obstetricians remaining at Anne Arundel General Hospital are plan- ning to leave the specialty in the near said Dr. Joseph chief of obstetrics and gynecology.

My Business class internet service went out on May 23, 2013. I've called support numerous times and experienced many difficulties including being hungup on, transferred to black holes and put on hold for extremely long periods of time. I've called two weeks ago and finally spoke to a lady to disconnect my service as I've since had AT&T uverse installed so I can work. The Comcast person said that she would send me the disconnect service email which i never recieved. Today, i went to the local Comcast office and turned in my equipment and discconnect. They said that I would need to call 901-369-5055 to disconnect as they only handle residential. I called the number, was transferred to a black hole. I called back and spoke to Sal who said that he would email me the disconnect form and transfer me to billing. He never sent the email and transferred me to a black hole. I called back and spoke with Stefan, who proceeded to tell me that I would still have to pay the balance even though my service has been down for two months. [continued below]....

I'm passionate, sensitive, driven, and curious. I love being out in nature, creating art, and good conversation.
I'm an introvert, but I like exploring new places and hanging out with friends in small groups. I prefer staying busy and having a sense of accomplishment. I'm also cool though with lounging and Netflix in moderation.
Laundry is my Zen. I know it sounds silly. there's something about it that's really peaceful and comforting.
When I'm not working, I try to spend some time doing something creative. Lately that means either taking pictures, or trying to skillfully convince characters within a story to stick to the plot.
I think it's important to try to help others when you can. I believe compassion and empathy are the gateways to living a fulfilling life.

We work to meet a client where they are in the process of change to explore the relationship between themselves, their world, and their addiction-related issues. In working closely with people suffering with addiction, we have witnessed countless failed attempts to intervene on someone struggling with addiction. Out of this awareness came a focused effort to develop an evidence-based approach to enhancing the probability of a successful intervention. Many misconceptions have developed over what interventions achieve and how they work.

Jose, the host, is very nice and precise. He showed us around the flat and was very friendly during our stay giving us some advice on the city and surroundings. I would recommend Jose's flat to my friends and family.

Hello There!
Jose was friendly and accommodating.
The location was very good and the view from the room of the Hammer.
It was also clean.
Many greetings Elli
Jose war freundlich und zuvorkommend.
Die Lage war sehr gut und die Aussicht vom Zimmer aus der Hammer.
Es war auch sauber.
Viele Grüße Elli
For your stay in Barcelona I relly recommand you José!!! With his warm welcome, lot of explanations how to reach him and what to do in Barcelona, it's a êrfect host!!! We had a great time in his city especially beceause in his flat everything is very clean, we have everything what we nedeed in the kitchen, in the bathroom, in our room (for two people far enough), so we sure felt like being at home!!
The room sure is big enough for two people. Be aware that there are also 2 other rooms rented out, but don't worry - the walls are pretty good isolated so that we didn't hear much happening in the flat.
The best thing that the location is at the right place, not really in the centrum but not far away from it!! Few minutes walk to the metro station, close to the beach (15 min walking), wtih supermarkets not far away AND with an awesome view over city, sea and the monument.
At the end I recommand you staying with Jose!!!
During our next visit of Barcelona I hope to stay with him again!!
- Quality assured accommodation

SL at the Inauguration
January 20th 2009, Washington, D.C., 9:34 a.m.
"Twenty degrees up here feels a lot colder than twenty degrees in Birmingham," says Southern Living assistant travel editor Farrah Austin. She called us this morning from her spot alongside thousands and thousands and thousands of people in front of the nation's capitol building.
There's a buzz in our magazine's offices, but it hardly compares to Farrah's perspective…
In the few minutes that we talked, she shared a blur of images and details:
"One of the coolest things was that when I got here around 6 this morning, there were volunteers in red hats saying 'Welcome' and 'Have a nice day.'"
"I just heard a San Francisco girls choir serenading the crowd, but all I can see now are hats, flags, and lights from the jumbo tron."
"Everyone here is doing a countdown, asking for the time. We can't wait for it to start."
"There's a merry-go-round spinning with kids on it. There are kids up in a tree looking out at everything."
"So many people are selling stuff–Obama keychains and lighters."
"With all these bodies so close together, you think it would be warmer. People are cold and hungry, but everyone is still nice and polite. At first people were frigid. Now we're all excited. There's a great spirit of brotherhood and friendship."

You'll find that implementing a daily schedule is a whole lot easier if you've already set a weekly schedule. The weekly schedule determines which subjects you will cover each day of the week. The daily schedule helps you figure out how to fit all those subjects together with your students each day.
With all the variations we've used over the years, we've found that all of those schedules can be categorized into basically two approaches. With one approach, you do all of your Family Work at once, then break to do Independent and Mother-Guided Work until it's done. The second approach inserts shorter Family Work segments throughout the day, alternating them with Independent/Mother-Guided Work. Either approach is valid. Use whichever works best for your family, and don't be afraid to tweak them as needed. Life changes; we go through many different seasons, and different schedules work better in some of those seasons than others. That's the beauty of homeschooling: you can go with the flow and make the changes that will help keep your home running smoothly while preserving your sanity.
Sample Schedules
Approach One: Family Work in One Block
Approach Two: Family Work in Segments
Helpful Hints
- We've found it far less stressful to use a Time Boxes concept rather than a minute-by-minute schedule. Time Boxes are much more forgiving and "stretchy." If you stretch a Time Box in the middle of your schedule by an extra fifteen minutes, no problem. When you're done, you can simply start on the next Time Box without that oh-no-we're-behind-schedule feeling. And you can always insert other activities in between Time Boxes as needed. If you need to move a couple of Time Boxes to after lunch, you can. If you need to swap two Time Boxes for today, go right ahead. Time Boxes are all about flexible structure.
- Remember to keep lessons short for the younger students: 15–20 minutes is preferred on any one subject. So if you have two or three subjects to cover within a 30-minute time box, allot ten or fifteen minutes per subject. Older students can spend 30–45 minutes per subject, so it is possible that one subject could take up a whole time box. Basically, just keep lessons short when younger students are involved and allow older students to complete their independent work at their own pace.
- Notice how children can do more independent work as they grow older, leaving Mom free to do more guided work with younger children.
- Ignore references to grades in which you have no students. If you have no preschoolers, you can disregard references to them.
- See the Simply Charlotte Mason Curriculum Guide for specific resource suggestions and book lists within each subject.

Hey ya'lls! I got a new pic. Mommy had an old family friend and the family friend just passed away so she went to a funeral. Well she had to go home first to do her make up for it. Well she found Harry on another bed and then she asked another resident of our home, wheres Ashes? Well she found me snuggled up in a big wad of her stuffed animals. (don't worry she isn't little or anything she just likes to collect them.) So go ahead and look at my new pic and now you know the story of it.

Slacklining: it's not just for climbers anymore! It's also for hippies. But it's not just for hippies anymore either! All you need to take part in this exploding sport/art/activity/whatever is two trees, one slackline, and a rudimentary sense of balance. Judging by the guys we see doing it in the park, it helps to take off your shirt, too.

Last week, Google, Amazon, and Sonos teamed up to offer 6 months free of Google Play All Access and a $50 Amazon credit with the purchases of a Sonos speaker. Now, Google is partnering with AT&T for another deal. Starting today, you will get $50 in Google Play credit when you purchase a qualifying Android smartphone from AT&T. The credit is valid towards anything in the Play Store, such as apps, movies, music, and TV.
Every Android device AT&T sells qualifies, while iPhones Windows Phones obviously do not. The deal is also valid with all of AT&T's contract options, including two-year agreements and AT&T Next. The deal will run until July 17th and is available on AT&T's website only, not in stores. A new line of service is required, as well.
AT&T is selling a variety of popular smartphones right now, including the HTC One M8, Moto X, and Galaxy S5. You can read more about this offer on AT&T's website.

Update (5/2 11:15am): The deal is now over from Motorola, but now Amazon has dropped their price down to $299.99 for a 16GB factory unlocked model.
Update (5/1 9:30am): The deal is now live at motorola.com.
Just last week, select Moto X variants started to receive price drops to $349 and $399 for 16GB and 32GB respectively, but now the company is looking to further discount all models of the device. Starting on May 1 at 12:01AM ET and running for 24 hours, the 16GB Moto X will cost just $299. The 32GB and Developer editions will receive an even steeper price cut, from $399 down to $324.99.
It's unclear how many units Motorola will sell at this price, or if it will simply run the entire day. You also have to keep in mind that Motorola has promised a new flagship by late-Summer. But if you've been waiting for your chance to snag one of the best Android smartphones out there, this is your opportunity.
Let's just hope this sale goes better than Moto's Cyber Monday catastrophe…

If you're looking to give Google's ChromeOS a try, the 11.6″ HP LTE-equiped Chromebook may be your best option right now. The non-LTE version of the Chromebook usually sells for $279, but the LTE model is actually available now for only $249. The connectivity isn't the only difference between the two, either. The LTE model comes with 16 GB of flash storage while the more expensive, less-capable version uses a standard hard drive of the same size.
Both come with 2 GB of RAM, a 1.7 GHz Samsung Exynos processor, built-in webcam, support for 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi, and weigh only 2.3 pounds. Both models are also available in a range of colors. Obviously, the connectivity differs between the two, as the LTE model comes with support for Verizon's 4G LTE network.
Update (2/26): The official word was that this card would retail for $200, which Best Buy is charging, but Amazon has it listed for $120 with free shipping. It's currently out of stock but will ship as soon as its available (2-3 weeks) at the discounted rate. Use this adapter to have the microSD card sit flush with your MacBook's SD card slot.
At Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, SanDisk has just announced a new accessory that will make many Android users very happy. The company has unveiled the world's first ever 128GB microSD card. More specifically, the card uses the microSDXC standard, meaning that it works with devices only that are compatible with XC, not just the lower-end HC.
SanDisk does note, however, that the card is "designed for Android" and will be fully compatible with many Android devices. In addition to this new 128GB card, SanDisk will also be updating its "Memory Zone" app for Android, which allows users to easily and access files stored on microSD cards. The app also allows users to back up content to it and free-up internal device memory. A new "OptiMem" will automatically transfer older photos on a device to external memory.
The availability of 128GB microSD cards also signals that we could soon start seeing Android devices with 128GB of internal storage. This would be a big upgrade, especially when the operating system on many devices takes up more than 6GB of space.
The 128GB SanDisk microSD card will run $199.99 when it is released. The card will be available exclusively from Amazon and BestBuy.
January 24, 2014
Motorola has just announced via its Twitter account that it will be offering the Moto X without contract for $100 off on January 27th. The deal will apply to any Moto X, meaning that the 16GB will run just $299 and the 32GB will cost $349. The catch, however, is that the deal will only run for one hour and "while supplies last." The offer will be available from 3PM ET to 4PM ET on the 27th of January.
Motorola also notes that, until Valentine's Day (February 14th), the Moto X will be available for $70 off, should you miss out on the $100 off offer. That means that the 16GB model will be available for $330 and the 32GB for $380 It looks like that offer will kick in after the $100 off deal sells out on the 27th.
These are certainly amazing deals. Let's just hope that these sales go better than the Cyber Monday deal the company attempted to hold…

For a limited time only, Google is offering 25% off of select Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 accessories on the Play Store. Unfortunately not every accessory qualifies for the deal, but many of the most popular ones do. The Nexus 7 sleeve, case, and folio are all available for 25% percent off, while the Nexus 5 bumper and QuickCover qualify for the offer.
- Nexus 7 Sleeve – $22.49
- Nexus 7 Case – $37.49
- Nexus 7 Folio – $37.49
- LG QuickCover for Nexus 5 – $37.49
- Nexus 5 Bumper Case – $26.24
Of course, even with the 25% discount, all of these accessories are still considerably more expensive than they should be. You can find much better cases and folios, for both the Nexus 5 and Nexus 7, a lot cheaper on Amazon. If you want official, Google/LG made products, however, than this deal is certainly nothing to complain about.

Google has just announced that it is cutting the price of its Nexus 4 in Australia, Canada, Germany, Spain, Korea, the United States, and the UK. The device now runs just $199 for 8GB of storage and $249 for 16GB in the United States. Previously, it was priced at $299 for 8GB and $349 for 16GB.
Even though the Nexus 4 was released nearly a year ago, it's still very solid smartphone, and will continue to get updates directly from Google for a long time to come. The device is powered by a 1.5GHz Quad-Core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro processor with 2GB of RAM and an 8MP camera.
Google is expected to announce a new Nexus device sometime this fall, though exact details still remain up in the air. Some rumors point to Motorola manufacturing the device, while others claim that it will be LG again.
At the same price as many phones are on-contract, the $199 off-contract Nexus 4 is a great deal. It's available on Google Play now and will ship within 1-2 business days, though that may change depending on demand. expand full story
