And that's why you hateMature
The idea in this story is mostly to work in every category that is listed on Protagonize. It would be nice if all the branches were somehow related to previous branches somehwat linearly, despite the branching (i.e. you don't suddenly go - 'and then bob woke up, and discovered not only was he dreaming, but he was in the wild west in 1855, looking for Doc Brown and Marty.') More like the story timbre slowly mutates into another category.
ducks. Ducks of all sizes and shapes, colors, and smells. Your aunt collects ducks, and they have nearly taken over. You live with your aunt now (because the rest of your family was blown up in a bakery fuel-line explosion) and cannot avoid them. Everything in the fucking house that isn't nailed down , edible, or wearable, is a duck. The piano bench. The stereo. The salt and pepper shakers. The plates. Your toothbrush. The doorjamb.
No, you take that back. Lots of wearable things have ducks on them. Your pajamas. That fucking pink baseball cap. The ballet flats. If it hadn't been for Mei speaking up for you, your junior prom dress would have surely been ducked out. You're pretty sure your aunt bought you tampons with ducks on them, once, but you're trying really, really hard to forget about that.
Years of morbid-pondering-and-quiet-sittings-with-your-aunt later, despite telling yourself that she means well (and because she was willing to raise you), the first night of your senior high school year, you are eating mac n cheese (with the duck pasta shapes) for dinner, and also trying really hard not to burst out cackling and screaming "Aunt Rita, WHAT IS WITH ALL THE FUCKING DUCKS? WHAT? WHAAAAAAAT?"
But it's getting pretty tough not to.
Instead, you start to stick your fork into the back of your hand under the table. That's what the Marquise de Merteuil said she would do in 'Dangerous Liasons', pretending she was all happy and smiling and flirty at the same time. Fortunately, you don't have to be quite so gay with your Aunt. She knows you have been a morbid teen (but likes jazz rather than industrial music), and although you are pretty in a way closer to Mena Suvari than Thora Birch in 'American Beauty', you like to fence and lift weights.
Yeah, you're a tad odd. But your family's blown up and your Aunt's life, which spills into yours, is filled with duckery.
Speaking of which, you were wrong about earlier.
The doorjamb is certainly nailed down, and that is not wagon-wheel-shaped pasta.

On a recent visit to my in-laws my wife's mother revealed that she had discovered a large collection of old family photographs. The images, printed on yellowing squares of paper, were mostly taken during the 1920s and 30s and featured her parents and grandparents.
In these pictures they were still young – relaxing at the seaside and sitting in their back garden. It was fascinating to pore over them, but alongside that fascination I felt a pang of regret that, while my wife knows so much about her family history, I know so little about my own.
My family's origins are in the villages of rural northern Pakistan. There is no record of where or when my grandparents were born, no documents that detail their lives, and no certificates that document their deaths. There are no memorials that mark where they are buried.
With my father dead, the few shards of biography available come through the scrappy recollections of my 79-year-old mother. If the lives of my grandparents are a blur, the lives of my parents are scarcely more distinct. My parents married sometime around 1960 – there is no photograph of the wedding day and my mother cannot recall the precise date – before my father left for Britain in early 1963, leaving behind his wife and two very young children.
My father visited Pakistan twice while he was in Britain, and I was conceived during one of those trips. I was born in 1971 and was almost three when I arrived in Britain with my mother and siblings. There is virtually no photographic record of the years my mother spent in Pakistan. She tells me stories of what I was like as a baby, but in the absence of images – there are only two photographs, both studio shot, of me as a baby – it is hard to believe I ever lived in Pakistan.
I remember as a teenager being filled with an aching envy at seeing my white friends' family albums: photographs of grandparents' wedding days, grandfathers in military uniforms, scenes of parents as small children. My friends took these things for granted but I was acutely aware of the impact of not having such images. I did not, at the time, recognise the irony of my predicament. I was born in Pakistan, a country only 24 years older than I was: Indians had 5,000 years of history to draw on, Pakistanis had fewer than five decades. We, the children of Pakistani immigrants, were doubly adrift – torn from a country that had itself been torn from another country. Faced with the richness of my friends' histories, I was stung by my own poverty.
The 11 years my mother spent in Pakistan without my father went undocumented. There are photographs, though, of my father's stay in Britain, living in a succession of houses he shared with fellow Pakistani men. They offer tantalising glimpses of my father, not as a father but as a man. I can see him standing by a cooker stirring a pot. He is wearing an apron over his shirt and tie while another man, more casually dressed, looks on. I can see him seated at a table, again in a tie, preparing to eat with three other men. I see him gazing at the camera in sunglasses, his hands casually slipped into the pockets of a cream suit. Dad doesn't look like the newly arrived immigrant who was working in a poorly paid manual job: he looks dignified, he looks cool. He does not look like the man I remember when I was growing up.
In the photographs I have from those years, my father seems a sociable fellow – he is usually in the company of other men (never any women). While we were in Pakistan, these were the men my father was living with. These men got to spend the 60s with him, they knew him intimately. And I have no idea who they are, or what happened to them.
Why does this lack of photographs of my mother's life in Pakistan still matter after all these years? Why do the faces in the photographs from my father's life in Britain haunt me so?
In part, it is because photographs can help to give context and colour to the past; relatives who are long-dead, or whom we view only through a rigid parental prism, or through the fog of memory are revealed as fully fleshed, vital human beings. It is not easy to feel rooted when one is drowning in a sea of unknowns.
I have become progressively more aware of the significance of my ignorance. My father died in 1995, I got married in 2010 and my daughter was born the following year. All three of those events were life-defining – they were reminders that, while we are all individuals, we are also bound to others: links in a chain, chapters in an ongoing story. After my father's death I became fascinated with learning more about him as a man; the questions I never asked while he was alive became more urgent.
After I married, I became aware of how alive the past was for my wife – she had photographs, her parents' journals of family holidays, baby clothes and toys, paintings made by relatives – and how distant it was for me.
When my baby daughter Laila was born, my desire to learn about my ancestors grew because she has parents with wildly different cultural heritages. I wanted her to feel equally versed in both stories.
And so I yearn to flick through the back pages of my family history to know about my ancestors, to know what they looked like and what they were like, but the pages are mostly blank and the photographs that do exist only prompt unanswerable questions. The contrast with my wife's family could scarcely be greater. Bridget has photographs of everyone from her great-grandparents down: she knows that her great-grandmother was a music-hall entertainer whose show was reviewed in the Stage newspaper in 1901; there are records of a relative who was a member of parliament and another ancestor who moved to New York. I have tiny fragments of information about my ancestors – a grandfather who served in Burma, a great-grandfather also in the military – but these are scraps compared with Bridget's banquet.
This explains my almost pathological desire to record and keep everything. I had a teenage diary, I have ancient cinema stubs, airline tickets and I never, ever throw away old concert T-shirts. It is not hoarding for hoarding's sake – I am trying to compensate for having nothing from the past by keeping everything for the future.
My dilemma is not unique – it is the typical experience of many second-generation British Asians – and it is a problem that a recently launched website called whosthedaadi.com is hoping to address. The idea behind it is that British Asian families can learn more about their ancestors through crowd-sourced information: people are encouraged to upload old family photographs complete with any details to help build family trees. It is a great idea and I hope it is successful.
In my own case, I fear it is too late. In Pakistan, the relatives of my parents' generation are largely gone and they have taken their memories with them. I also suspect that I will never learn the truth about the men in the photographs with my father. All I can do is to stare hard at them, at their pale brown jackets and thick sideburns, at my father in his regulation suit, tie and dark sunglasses. All I can do is wish fervently that those photographs could talk, and wonder what they might say.

Threading is an ancient way to get rid of hair, predating modern techniques such as getting a really stressful job and staying there for years. Let someone else do the work with this Groupon.
The Deal
- $15 for three eyebrow threading sessions (a $30 value)
SOI Brow Threading Salon
An artful twist of the thread ensnares the strand, and a quick motion frees it from the follicle. That's all there is to threading, but it takes a careful eye and a precise hand to master this ancient art of hair removal. Luckily, these are both qualities that define the technicians at SOI Brow Threading Salon. Their threading sessions remove hair from the eyebrows as well as the chin, upper lip, and second nose, sloughing away dead skin in the process.

Brand name coder from consumer-entered data
This project received 23 bids from talented freelancers with an average bid price of $577 CAD.Get free quotes for a project like this
Project Budget$250 - $750 CAD
Total Bids23
Project Description
I need a tool developed that can take the following INPUT:
1-5 columns of excel or csv data of text which are consumer-provided brand names. There will be noise in the data like multiple spellings (e.g. "Adidas" and "Addiddas"), non-answers (e.g. "dont know"), and blanks.
I need the tool to provide the following OUTPUT:
1. Cleaned / homogenized brand lists and frequencies. So the output becomes a list of:
Adidas:17 - including Adidas, Aiddiddas, Addidas - within the scope of what Google would autocomplete or other solutions you may have
Budweiser:12 - including Budwieser, etc.
Comcast:5 - including com cast, comccast, etc.
Can be in HTML, PHP, excel, doesn't matter.
The tool needs to be delivered with a brand list of most common North American brands, and be able to add to dictionary.
The tool needs to be responsive, so that additional groupings can be forced in the output - e.g. it may not group "Coors" and "Coors Light" together, but should do so if the user requests it.
It needs to be able to learn new languages/brand lists easily in the future

What Next?Mature
When I opened my eyes, I was back in the small room that was my prison cell. My body spasmed in remembrance of the session with Alastair and I ran my hands over my chest frantically to make sure that I was whole again. The skin was smooth and there was no slick trace of blood to be felt. Whatever Alastair had done to me, he had at least put me back together at the end of it all. I stood shakily and rested my head against the smooth black stone that made up the door and I sighed. I know, I know -- I had no one to blame for my problems but myself. It was my own fault that I was down here and playing chew-toy for a seriously fucked up demon. But even in my darkest moments, I never regretted the course of action that had pulled me down to hell. I could never hold anything like that against Sam; it wasn't his fault that he was the way he was and it wasn't his fault that I used my soul as a bargaining chip to bring him back to life. Besides, I reasoned, life without Sam would have been a kind of living hell anyways, so being downstairs wasn't actually much different.
Well, you know, except for the endless days of torture.
And, by that point, it really did feel like endless days. I had been in hell for a long time; a lifetime, almost. When I tried to remember how things had been upstairs I had a hard time doing it. The only thing I truly kept in my memory was Sam's face because if I didn't have that then I probably would become exactly what Alastair wanted me to become., but even that was becoming more difficult
The thought of Sam's disapproval was, by that point, the only thing I was hanging on to as a way to stay human. I could see the way he would look at me and how his lips would purse just slightly as he'd get that judgemental gleam in his eye. I smiled a lot when I thought about Sam; the things that used to piss me off about him when I was upstairs didn't seem to matter down here. I would have given just about anything to see him. It was enough, though, knowing that he was alive. What I did to save Sam from death, I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Even knowing what I knew about hell and what was waiting for me, I wouldn't hesitate even one minute. My soul was nothing compared to Sam's; I wished he understood that.
I stepped away from the door and sat back down on the bench, letting my head hit the wall with a 'thunk' that really should have been painful, but I didn't feel anything. Compared to Alastair's knife, hitting my head hard enough to give myself a concussion barely registered on my 'that hurts' meter.
I closed my eyes and tried to bring Sammy's face to my mind but it wasn't easy. I could see the individual features; the warm brown eyes, the hair that never seemed to lay flat and the mouth that could either beam in a sunny smile or look pinched and angry, often within the space of a few moments. But it took me too much time to pull all those features together into the face that I spent my whole life looking after. Something clenched in my chest, a twist that was more painful than anything that Alastair had done to me, and my head dropped forward. I could feel the hot tears on my cheeks and I passed my hand over my eyes to wipe them away but they kept coming.
"Sammy," I choked and looked up at the ceiling of the cell, "Sammy -- get me out of here. I know you can do it, you just -- you just gotta try. Do something, Sam, please because I don't know how much longer I'm gonna last down here."
The tears got worse and my throat felt tight as I doubled over and closed my arms around myself. I didn't think I would stop crying that night.
Alastair looked a little too happy to see me when I was pulled into his den of depravity at the start of a session. His blue eyes were bright, sparkling and he kept looking at me like he was holding some kind of secret in that he just couldn't wait to surprise me with. The two demon mooks dragged me over to the wall and strung my arms up in the familiar position and then left without a word.
The atmosphere in the room seemed different today and I kept staring at Alastair as he looked over his tools, letting his fingertips run over the sharpened edges of the blades or picking them up and eyeing them carefully. I stared at the butcher wondering why he seemed so giddy and he looked over, catching my eye.
"We're doin' something a little different today, Dean," he said, rubbing a hand across his chin and then down the front of his black shirt like he was smoothing away imaginary wrinkles. "You get to watch."
I didn't like this; I didn't like the way he was looking at me with that anticipatory gleam in his eye. It made something jump in my stomach; a twist of fear that was unlike the usual dread I felt when I was dragged in for the butcher to carve. That fear was easy to ignore and push down but this was different and I glared at Alastair, wondering what he was cooking up in that sick, twisted mind of his.
He was standing next to me now; his hands gathered in my hair pulling my head down so that it was close to his. "Aren't you excited, kid?" his breath puffed against my cheek. I could smell the thickness of it, like sulphur. "Aren't you just -- breathless -- from anticipation?"
"Yeah, I'm freakin' ecstatic. Now either use some mouthwash or get the fuck away from me." Weak, I know. I didn't have a head for insults today. My mind was too busy trying to wrap itself around whatever Alastair was up to. Needless to say I didn't trust the guy further than I could throw him and whatever his little plan was, I was pretty sure I wasn't going to like it.

Operation RoundUp
Small Change That Changes Lives
One of the fundamental characteristics of a consumer-owned electric cooperative is its close relationship with the community it serves. This commitment to community is also one of our guiding Touchstone Energy principles along with accountability, integrity and innovation. We have a special responsibility to the people in our service area that goes beyond simply providing reliable and affordable power.
That is why we are so pleased to share with you the details of an exciting community service program we have developed called Operation Round Up® which brings together all four of the Touchstone Energy principles.
Simply stated, Operation Round Up® gathers voluntary contributions from participating co-op members by "rounding up" their monthly bill to the next dollar and those few cents are deposited into a separate fund. For example, let's say your bill this month is $81.75. The bill would be automatically rounded up to $82 and the extra 25 cents would be deposited in the Operation Round Up® fund.
On the average, most members will donate $6 per year. And you won't ever pay more than 99 cents in a month.
Small change indeed. But multiplied by our nearly 26,000 customers, it is "small change that changes lives." Every donation is made to worthy applicants right in our own local area, and all of the contributions go to the needy, not to the administrative costs of running the program.
A board of trustees will oversee the fund and its distribution. Charitable groups or organizations that have a community project for which they need funding will submit applications to the Operation Round Up® board. The group's responsibility will be to evaluate applications and distribute the funds.
By using this procedure, Southeastern Indiana REMC ensures that the money you raise will benefit the quality of life in your community. Some examples of possible uses of the funds include new equipment for a volunteer fire department, educational equipment for a school, lighting for a ball field, emergency assistance for a weather-related disaster, etc.
As a non-profit electric cooperative for more than seven decades, Southeastern Indiana REMC has always been committed to playing a key role in the lives of people throughout our region.
What is most rewarding about the concept of Operation Round Up® is that it is an extension of the concept of neighbor helping neighbor that built our electric cooperative. Just as our forefathers joined together to build their own electric systems when investor-owned power companies refused to serve rural areas, Operation Round Up® helps co-op members reach out to worthy causes in their communities and work together to help others.
The Operation Round Up® program originated with a South Carolina electric cooperative and is being used by cooperatives all over the United States including many right here in Indiana. The program has been very successful and the money collected has gone to some wonderful community projects.
We are excited about Operation Round Up® and its potential to make a difference in our communities. We also hope you will participate with us in this new program where the power of cooperation is demonstrated through "small change that changes lives."

"There were 45,486 new dwelling units authorized during 1965, or 15 per cent and 27 7 per cent more than the number approved in 1964 and 1963, respectively," Secretary Young added. Governor Scranton told a convention of home builders here last week that "for a number of years the market for new housing in Pennsylvania has been soft," but that under improved conditions since 1962, the industry "can only flourish and expand." "The $514,549,000 12-month preliminary estimate of authorized new residential building significantly surpassed'the 1964 all-time high of $425,810,000 by 20.8 per cent and the $418,876,000 of 1963 by 22.8 per cent," Scranton said. Last year's new all-time high of $1,225,310,000 in new construc-tior was authorized by 950 Pennsylvania permit-issuing municipalities encompassing about 80 per cent of the state's total population, Secretary Young said. Secretary Young said that December's new reside ntial building volume of $41,253,000 was down 4.1 per cent from November, "but 11.1 per cent above December a year ago, and 123 per cent above December of two years ago." Between November and December 1965 a decline of $8.6 million in single home construction, in addition to small volume decreases in double home and public-owned dwelling buildings, outbalanced by $1.7 million to $7.0 million upsurge in apartment construction. In the over-all volume of au- thorized building permit operations in December the $98,929,-000 estimated costs were up 6.3 per cent from November, 35.6 per cent from December 1964 and 112.4 per cent from December 1963. In non-residential construction the 196$ preliminary estimate of $574,584,000 volume was 16.2 per cent ahead of the $494,304,0011 previous record-breaking valuation in 1964 and 30.4 per cent above the 1963 totals. "For the third consecutive year since 1945," said Young, "the total valuation of new nonresidential construct ion approved in 1965 exceeded that of new residential building. This is industry providing reasons for increased residential building," he said. Secretary Young reported "the December volume of $49,366,000 in newly authorized non-residential construction increases of 22.2 per cent over November, Gives Auto to State LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - Gene Austin of Greenwood gave his car to the state. Austin appeared Monday at a State Board of Equalization meeting, told the board taxes on the car were too high, then tossed his auto title on the desk. When Secretary of State Frank Marsh said the state couldn't accept the car, Austin replied: "I'm going to abandon it on a state lot, yank the plates off and leave it whether you want it or not. You're stuck." , The car is a used 1961 taxicab which Austin said he bought last year for $100. This year, he said, his county assessor valued it at $180 with taxes of $18. 82.4 per cent over December 1964, and 132.9 per cent over December 1963. Feed Groin Program Similar to 1965 Plan Farmers in Clearfield County who plan to take part in the 1966 feed ' grain program will find that signup procedure and general program requirements this year are similar to those followed for last year's feed grain program, according to James H. Bonsall, chairman of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation County Committee. For example, the first -step in taking part in the program is to fill out an intention-to-participate form and leave it with the ASCS county office. This can be done at any time during the signup period, which runs from Jan. 31 through April 1. After a producer has signed up, he is responsible for: (1) diverting acreage from corn, grain sorghum, and-or barley to the extent he has agreed upon; (2) designating the acreage of land to be diverted and establishing approved conservation use on that land; (3) maintaining the conserving base acreage on his farm; and (4) not exceeding the feed grain base on any other farm in which he has an interest, Mr. Bonsall explained. Farmers who request it will be eligible to receive 50 per cent of any diversion payment they may expect to earn under the 1966 program at the time they sign up. Farmers who request it may receive this payment at the time they sign up for the program. always appreciated... Your Headquarters for Fine Candies! COWDRICK'S GIGANTIC SAVINGS MANY ITEMS BELOW COST!

"reign in blood"
Since: May 09
#1 Nov 2, 2012
DEAR AMY: Many years ago, I remember hearing that if you love someone, you should let the person know (because you never know when something can happen and you'll never see the person again).
I'm wondering -- are there exceptions to this? Let me describe the following scenario. I'd like to hear what you think.
A married man who has a good marriage to Lady A meets Lady B. Lady B is married, but the man doesn't know what kind of marriage Lady B has. He has never met Lady B's husband. The man falls in love with Lady B but has never told her that. The man wants to make sure his feelings for Lady B are real, and after knowing her for more than two years he realizes his feelings are genuine.
Should the man tell Lady B how he feels about her?-- Wondering
DEAR WONDERING: In your letter, the man -- let's call him you -- doesn't know "what kind of marriage 'Lady B' has." In this particular situation you should not view marriage as an institution that lends itself to variety.
Even though we all know that no two marriages are alike, for the purposes of this discussion you should look upon marriage -- your own, for instance -- as an important, fragile and delicate institution that needs to be appreciated and protected. A gentleman respects and protects not only his own marriage, but the marriages of people he cares about.
Meaning: Don't mess with someone else's marriage. Honor your own.
However, I know well how hot burneth this flame. You sound determined to declare your love. Keep in mind, your feelings may well be unrequited. Expressing them may cause embarrassment for both of you. Prepare yourself for that. But, most important, if you want to declare your love for Lady B, you'd better deal with your feelings about Lady A first.
DEAR AMY: I am the father of a wonderful 22-year-old daughter. She is still living at home, working and going to school. She has a boyfriend.
I'm worried about her weight. She has gained quite a bit over the past two years since meeting her boyfriend. She was always a slender child, but I would guess she is about 70 pounds overweight now. My wife has made comments to her about her clothes not fitting and has suggested she go to a gym. My wife told me not to say anything to her.
What do you think?-- David in California
DEAR DAVID: You, your wife and your daughter should face this together and take this weight gain seriously. Gaining 70 pounds over two years is extreme. Your daughter's health is at risk.
You and your wife should speak with her together. If she has always been slim and is now heavy, she may not understand how to modulate her eating. She could also be using birth control, which might cause some weight gain, or she might have a potentially serious underlying health condition.
Don't treat this like an embarrassing, loaded and shameful issue. Your daughter is a young adult, and she should be educated, informed and in charge of her health. Ask her to make an appointment with her health care provider for a thorough checkup.
DEAR AMY: "Nice Guy" has an elderly neighbor who asks him to take out her garbage every day and never says "thank you."
It is truly a shame that this action by an old lady would give him anxiety, but, that being said, may I suggest the following: It sounds like the old lady sits by the window waiting for the Nice Guy to come home. I suggest that when she sticks her head out the door and asks him to take her garbage out, his answer should be, "Only if you say 'please,'" and see what she says. I believe he will get his "please" and will hear it in the future.
But even if she doesn't comply, he should take the high road. It's only garbage.-- Mr. D
DEAR MR. D: I have a feeling you're a "Nice Guy" too.

1- what a loser.
2- what a bunch of shallow jerks. Obesity isn't something to be ashamed of anymore. It's the 21st century, be tolerant of of others, accept them for who they are, don't shun them for not looking like barbie dolls. How sickening.
3- If taking out garbage causes you anxiety, you're a loser.

1.Give him props for not having said anything thus far and not having acted on his feelings towards Lady B. You can't always help how you feel, but you do have control over how you act.
2.She is 22.She knows. Why are the LWs associating this with her boyfriend- do they have food orgies in the family room after the parents go to bed? Have they found used Twinkie wrappers under teh remote?
3. Th original LW reacted inappropriately. A neighbor who lurks and asks you to take out garbage might cause irritation, but anxiety is strange

LW1: You are a friggin moron looking for Amby's blessing to cheat. Go f yourself.
LW2: MYOB. She's a grown ass woman. She has a mirror. She knows what she looks like. Hearing it from you is not going to be some big revelation to spur on change. Hell, she's got a boyfriend. I think most people would be more concerned with how their significant other views their body than how their parents do.
LW3: I must have missed the first serving of this rehash. Hope it was better the first time around. Sucks today.

L1: Only a coward would tell Lady B how he feels while still married to Lady A. It's called having 'soft landing." So if you REALLY love Lady B, tell your wife. Then she can kick you out and you'll be free to pursue this married woman. Even if you don't tell your wife, divorce her. Because she deserves someone who loves her, not another woman.
p.s. I do not like you.
p.p.s. The "Tell someone you love them" advice is about telling your mom you love her before she dies, not telling some married woman you're in love with her, you dingus.
L2: Last I read, the research showed that birth control does NOT cause weight game (and if it were to do so, it would be more like five pounds, not 70). But this *could* be a thyroid problem or some other medical condition, so she should see a doctor. But be prepared to find out that she's just eating very poorly and not getting any exercise based on her busy schedule.
L3: I didn't see this guy's problem with helping out what appeared to be an elderly neighbor who needed some assistance that wasn't much sweat off a young, healthy person's back.

L1: What Tonka said. And my advice is to go to the kitchen, find the meat scissors, and cut off your own dick.
L2: Birth control can cause a slight weight gain of 10 - 15 pounds. Seventy is a huge number in two years so either she's been eating like it's going out of style or has a medical issue.

1 Yes, but all means. Proclaim your love for her, then step in front of a bus.
2 The boyfriend did it. If she breaks up with him, she will slim down to enter the dating pool again
3 Since when do old peeps get a pass on rude?
#9 Nov 2, 2012
Lw3: if she was a slender child (particularly an overly slender child) and she's suddenly put on a lot of weight, she needs her thyroid levels fully tested. It's not unusual for someone who might have been slightly hyperthyroidic as a child--thus resulting in the slenderness--to go hypo when she hits her twenties.
Although, does anyone else thing that dad also might not be the best gauge of weight per visual inspection? In my experience, most men aren't. I and my sister are only about 20lbs different in weight but we've had a lot of guys guess that she was 50-70lbs heavier than me. She's nowhere near 200lbs, more like 140-150lbs. She carries her weight differently though.

The parents have a valid concern. Would your advice be the same if their child was having a significant amount of weight loss? Massive changes in weight are a cause for concern. Any GOOD parent would try to find out what's going on.
#11 Nov 2, 2012
Also, to be 70lbs *overweight* would indicate that she's put on more than 70lbs (or that the person making the claim is talking bs).
Let's say that because she was slender, she was at a lower bmi for her height. Let's presume she is 5'5" and was 115lbs (bmi 19.1).
To reach a bmi of 25 (entry point to overweight), she would have to weigh 150lbs, so that's a weight gain of 35lbs.
To reach a bmi of 30 (obesity), she would have to weigh 180lbs (an additional 30lbs).
So, if she put on 70lbs over her starting weight of 115, she would be at 185lbs and obese. But she'd only be ~35lbs "overweight", not 70lbs overweight, if overweight is defined as the amount you are over a bmi considered normal.

LW1: I going with what Red said for $50. With a YIKES! for jmw, even though I agree.
LW2: I'm thinking that pde might be on to something. If the girls was really skinny to begin with, then she might not be as overweight as dad is saying.
Either way, the girl should get this weight issue under control before she starts having kids,'cause it will be all over after that.

LW2- I don't think she gained 70 pounds. If she did, her clothes would not be ill fitting - she wouldn't be able to get them on. I bet she gained maybe 20 pounds and the dad is overestimating. Unless she's been hitting the weights and gained a lot of muscle.

L1: I'm with Red. Go ahead and tell your wife first. Then tell Lady B and I hope Lady B kicks your butt to the curb and you're left crying in your beer.
L2: It doesn't matter exactly how much weight she gained, obviously it's a lot in 2 years. If I was her parent, I'd encourage her to get a thorough check-up and support however way she needed to get it under control (whether it's a medical condition that needs meds or an issue with too much junk food).
L3: I don't remember this one.

There is a tendency in writing about Katine, in Uganda, to draw a neat, all too easy division, between Amref, accountable for doing development, and the Guardian, responsible for reporting and fundraising. In reality the lines are blurred, says Ben Jones
An event organised by the media thinktank Polis last week explored how the media covered development, focusing specifically on the Guardian's collaboration with Amref in Katine. To start a week-long focus on the media and development, we briefly outline some of the issues raised at the event
The main concern I have with the livelihoods work in Katine is not so much the vexed question of cattle, but rather the focus on farmers in this sub-county of Uganda as individual entrepreneurs, says Ben Jones
Katine: While women play a huge role in changing their communities and their countries, it would be wrong to exclude men from the debate, argues Ben Jones
Should farmers in Katine, a rural sub-county of north-east Uganda, be given cattle?
People's lives have improved in Katine, a rural sub-county in Uganda, which is being supported by the Guardian. But why are there still no drugs in the health centre?
Online chat: Put your questions on the Katine project to Amref and Farm-Africa now and get the answers on Tuesday December 9
Unesco's latest report reveals a $7bn deficit in the aid needed to finance basic education by 2015. Sub-Saharan Africa has made great strides in providing primary schooling – Amref has made it a priority in Katine - but challenges remain
Many involved in development work in Africa take a dim view of burial societies, thinking too much money is spent on funerals. But burials are part of the social fabric of village life
Amref's country director for Uganda, Joshua Kyallo, visited the Guardian to debate the work being done in Katine, in north-east Uganda, and the challenges his organisation faces dealing with local bureaucracy and managing the expectations of villagers - and journalists
The Katine project: The past year has been one long lesson in development for us
We need to take religion seriously if we are serious about understanding social, economic and political change in Katine, argues Ben Jones
Raising incomes and generating wealth could be the most important empowerment strategy for Katine residents

PENN vs SANCHEZ
GO PENN!!!:thumbsup:
haha might wanna get this problem fixed......shut down the comp and turn it back on maybe? idk
I thought you could give more than one choice because of the selection I chose... BTW I fixed it....
woah i never knew u could make a double poll....thats pretty sweet PS i picked BJ in round 2
how do you vote again? nevermind you have to do it with the original vote.... duh...
This fight may come down to heart and conditioning, so I would point the favor in Diego's direction. It would be a great fight to see and probably another decision.
I'll take Sanchez in the 2nd Round.
i thought penn won the fight vs. gsp...gsp looked like he was hit with a bat
and the only reason he lost to hughes was the injury. diego is B+ class at best...penn is one of the most well rounded (heavy hands...insane sub's/ground game) fighters there is.
sexy minds think alike.

if you want to spend a little more time interacting with the dogs one-on-one, then we can offer a variety of short (or even multi-day) hikes on the 'off-the-beaten-track' trails around Hetta. Hiking with the huskies can be just as rewarding as mushing with them. You get a lot of time interacting directly with your dog and they absolutely love you for the chance to do something out of the ordinary.
The dogs are attached to you with a skijoring line clipped to a waistbelt, so there is no fear that you will accidentally let them go and in the longer hikes, they can carry their own snacks and water in their own doggy rucksack.
Central Hetta Forest Trails - c. 2 hours
Perilä / Ullatieva Trail - c. 2.5 hours
Pahtajärvi Trail - Full day hike
One trail which can be explored in both summer and winter leads out straight from the centre of the village on the illuminated ski track. It soon breaks off along the 'reindeer' boardwalks and then returns to the main paths via a seldom visited ridge between the large marshes. This is a really pretty trail that normally takes c. 2 hours to complete. It is slightly less physical than the ridge option described below, but there are not as many 'turn-around' places on it for young children if they decide that they do not want to go any further.
Duration: 2.5 hours
Price: Adults €60, Children €35, Families €175 (<5, inc. up to 2 adults)
A particular favourite with the guides is a beautiful ridge walk c. 4km from the far end of Hetta which is seldom discovered by visitors to the area. The ridge trails crisscross each other many times, giving multiple vantage points to a river on one side and a wilderness lake on the other. It is a particularly fun trail for children since they can make decisions as to which path to take at every junction and you needn't worry about becoming lost since all paths come back together in the end. This is normally offered either as a 2-hour product in summer or a half-day hike out to the far end of the ridge, returning along the shore-line of the lake.
Duration: 3 hours
Price: Adults €70, Children €45, Families €200 (<5, inc. up to 2 adults)
A slightly longer hiking path that is a favourite of ours on our days off is the 17km Pahtajarvi loop which follows a skyline trail to the North of Hetta and returns beside a spectacular gorge. This hike generally takes between 5 and 6 hours to complete, including a stop for a lunch break eaten around an open fire in a wilderness kota.
On this trail, your dog will carry its own water and snacks on its back in a 'doggy rucksack' so you will have no extra weight to carry for them.
Duration: 5 - 6 hours
Price: Adults €95, Children €55, Families €250 (<5, inc. up to 2 adults)

Nov. 27 Asian Games marathon team member Kiyoko Shimahara (33, Second Wind AC) has cancelled her planned altitude training camp beginning Sept. 5 in Boulder, Colorado due to illness. She has also withdrawn from her scheduled appearance in the Sept. 19 Philadelphia Half Marathon.
Shimahara spent August training in Hokkaido, but after returning home to Nagano she came down with a fever. Exhibiting symptoms similar to those of dehydration, she was advised to spend at least a week allowing for total recovery. Departing for Boulder Sept. 5 with Shimahara's Asian Games teammate Yuri Kano (31) and other Second Wind runners, coach Manabu Kawagoe (48) commented, "Shimahara overtrained in Hokkaido. If she feels back to normal in time then she'll join us in Boulder (for the last part of the training camp)." He indicated that the situation is not a major setback for Shimahara's preparations for November's main event.
Kano told reporters, "I'll be using Philadelphia to check on my current condition. From there I'll be targeting peaking at the Asian Games."
Translator's note: Second Wind runner Eri Okubo is also scheduled to run Philadelphia.

Ending 2
Sam pulled a clean change of clothing out of the bag and light reflected briefly off of the silver flask Dean had given him for his 18th birthday—"Good for kicking back, or kicking ass." as Dean had put it—as Sam tucked the clothes under his arm and replaced the flask. He zipped back up the duffle and cleared his throat as he turned back to Dean.
"Listen, we should go back to the cemetery tonight for Adam. Give him a proper funeral." Sam's eyes flicked around the room, hardly focusing on Dean when they finally stilled on him. Dean just nodded somberly, still sorting through what he was seeing as he continued to look at Sam.
"Yeah." Dean grunted after a quick throat clear. Sam smiled wanly and headed back into the bathroom. Dean watched him go with a heavy heart and a sick feeling in his stomach. Sam seemed to have completely recovered from his close encounter with the ghouls...he looked like a totally different person.
Dean's eyes fluttered closed and he leaned forward to rest his head in his right hand, elbow propped against his knee. He rubbed hard at his face and tried to make sense of how fickle life could be sometimes. Just like that, Sam wasn't familiar anymore. Dean mourned the change as if it had been a complete loss instead. He dropped his chin down and threaded his hand through his sleep-styled hair.
Sorrow gripped icily at his chest and nauseatingly at his stomach. Dean could feel a prickling sensation cruelly teasing his sinuses. A moment later, the always paired pressure pushed at the back of his eyes. It wasn't fair. Just a day before, he'd had Sam—his Sam—back. But today...Dean pulled in a shaky breath and looked towards the sound of the shower starting behind the bathroom door. What the hell had taken place during the night? What had caused Sam to do such a complete one-eighty while Dean slept unknowingly? Dean had gone to sleep feeling so content, peaceful in a way he hadn't felt since he had set eyes on Sam for the first time in four months and felt him in his arms, solid and real. But night makes a fool of us in day light. The lyrics came unbidden to Dean's mind. He had no idea where he had heard them, but he was unable to ignore the truth they held nor the significance they had to his current predicament.
He had woken up to find his contention quickly shattered and his world completely turned upside down again and he did feel like a fool. A fool for convincing himself that this was a new beginning for him and Sam. For thinking that they had gotten back across every mile of ground that had separated them for the past year. Did Sam even remember any of that? The apologies? The unspoken and mutual forgiveness? His behavior? Dean's heart gave a achy pound. Or had Sam just been too out of it to have control over his actions?
The muscles in Dean's jaw hardened as he teeth firmly met with a click. "No." That hadn't been just some loopy victim the night before. It had ben Sam, one-hundred-percent-in-his-true-state-of-mind Sam. "You're still in there somewhere, Sammy. I saw you. And you can't hide forever." Dean brushed absently at his eyes, threw the blankets back, and pushed himself out of bed. He began moving around the room retrieving his various scattered belongings and putting them back into his duffle, fueled by duel forms of motivation. Frustration, that Sam was still somewhere in there, but for some reason was deciding to hide. Hope, that he was in fact still there to hide in the first place.
Dean would come up with something. He didn't know what, but he would. He could wait. He would figure out what it was that was keeping Sam locked away inside himself and he would find a solution that would bring his little brother back out into the open, once and for all. Dean always swore he would protect Sam no matter what. Even if it meant protecting Sam from himself.
The End
And there's ending number two. Admittedly their both almost exactly the same, but as I was writing, they both just sort of...came out, so figured there was no harm in allowing the option.
The "unbidden lyrics" were from the song Yes! by Coldplay. And there's a short story behind its usage. I do realize there are multiple self-harming things Dean would rather do than be caught dead listening to Coldplay, but as I was writing this, those exact lyrics actually came "unbidden" to my mind, so I sort of ran with the idea. And actually that song always reminded me of the Boys, so it worked out kinda cool.
Cookies for anyone who caught which song it was while reading; )
Anywho, for those who might have read both...which one did you like better? Either?
Anywho, I hope ya'll liked the story! I know it was a bit over the top with the broness, but I was trying to make a point...and like I said, I'm deprived...and I'm prone to go overboard when that happens. Tehe:D
Reviews are like being a dick...and I'm Zachariah.

A Memory
A contest entry given a poem for inspiration. The poem was romantic and we were asked to make our work emotional with brevity.
Once upon a time,I had to breathe.Every time I was next to you.
Pausing my soul,Touching your skinOh how I love this comfort.
Lighten my lifeBring our shadows togetherSo we can soar.
I don't know about youBut my life is complete.Even though your six feet under.Your still the one I adore.
I'll fix layout when I'm on a computer


text: Starting today, my two phpBB forums and all phpBB forums that I can find on the internet load extremely slowly. When they do load they sometimes are not in full graphic mode. Additionaly Gmail loads slowly if at all. And when it loads, the gmail inbox list does not recognize the left mouse button to open an email. Occasionally Gmail pops up the following message: Code:"Error "Some Gmail features have failed to load due to an Internet connectivity problem. If this problem persists, try reloading the page, or using the basic HTML version. Learn More.I first saw this on my XP pc. I had Comcast check my cable and it is OK (24mb/sec on a cable rated 12mb/sec using speedtest.net). Next I used my laptop with W7 pro, same cable, and it had similar results, including the ineffective left mouse button. On the XP machine I had the same results with Firefox and IE. Any ideas?

Happy New Year!!!
Welcome to 2007! We rang in the new year the same way most families do... with strep throat! We were on vacation in Gatlinburg at the time so we got to spend New Year's night sitting in an ER in the middle of nowhere... I have to say though, we were in and out with all 3 kids diagnosed with strep in under 3 hours! Talk about service!
Anyway, we cut our vacation short and came back home to let the kids recoup. They ended their medication on the 5th and Tuesday night I was back at the doctor with Kass and Kam who both tested postive again. Now Kennedy is sick as well and she has an appointment tomorrow morning... 3 guesses on what is wrong with her!
Kassidy is now on round 10 of antibiotics, Kameron is on round 7 or 8 and if Kennedy does indeed have strep it will be round 6 for her. I guess not having her tonsils does help a little.
The appointment we made with ENT back in October is FINALLY here! Kass and Kam go in on Tuesday and hopefully they will agree that they need their tonsils out... if they don't you'll be seeing me on the 6:00 news for freaking out in a Nashville doctor office! I am just praying that they can get this done SOON especially before May! I do not need a newborn getting strep!
So anyway... that's it for us lately. We had a wonderful Christmas and I have tons of pics that I will get posted soon. Hope you all are well!

Flavia:Leave me alone
Wittick banged on my window, my door, everywhere he could to get me to talk to him.
"Leave me alone!"
"We have to talk Flavia!"
"No we don't. I understand."
"You don't!"
"Yes I do Witt, just leave me alone. You just kissed a human, she knows our secret, and you just made an enemy of a werewolf! How stupid are you?"
"I can explain."
I shoved my ear phones in my ears and turned up the volume of my ipod. Just leave me alone Witt, just leave me alone I projected.
And he did.
I pulled out my ear phones and listened until he shut his bedroom door, then opened my window and slippd out on to the roof. The girl knew about vampires. It was my right, and great joy, to stop her. In no time at all I was across the road and outside her window. She was lying on her bed, crying her eyes out. How I hated her right now. I slipped silently through the window and sat cross-legged on her chair, then cleared my throat to get her attention. Her head snapped up, her eyes bloodshot.
"Hey, why the crying? I mean, you just got the most amazing guy to kiss you, why should you be the one crying?"
"Flavia, I didn't know he was your boyfriend..." I appeared next to her in a flash, and her heart leaped seconds before she did.
"Quiet human girl. I know you know what we are. I know you're scared. And you know what? You should be." Her parents were out of the house, and the werewolf was the only threat. Ha some threat to an angry vampire. "So, how do you want to die?"

From EvoWiki
Creationism, in its most general form, is the belief that intelligence (particularly a supernatural intelligence) was involved in the origin of life or the universe. This concept is not particularly controversial, in and of itself, but in the context of the creation/evolution controversy, several forms of creationism are characterized by the belief that this intelligence is scientifically demonstrable. This latter form is rejected by the vast majority of the scientific community, as well as by many Christians.
While some creationists refer to themselves as "scientific creationists" or "creation scientists", very little of creationism is actually scientific - and that is either falsified, poorly evidenced or in agreement with mainstream science. Typically, scientific literature is used by scientists to glean information useful in their own areas of expertise. Often however, creationists seem to read the scientific literature solely for the purpose of "quote-mining" (collecting textual snippets which, when removed from their proper context, will make the original author appear to be denouncing some aspect of mainstream science, typically the theory of evolution). When an argument is shown to be contradicted by the physical evidence, a scientist should either stop using that argument or else modify it to accommodate the evidence which contradicted the original argument; many creationists simply continue to use the original argument in its original (discredited) form for years, even decades, after being informed of the contradiction.
Creationism is a broad category, and specific forms of creationism vary considerably. The word "creationism" is usually applied just to those groups who actively reject evolution, but is also used to describe all groups who believe that a supernatural being created the universe:
Many of these types of creationism are mutually exclusive and do not overlap. The most vociferous group of creationists are probably YECs in the United States, where a large proportion of the population are creationists. In Europe, Canada and Australasia most of the religious community are theistic evolutionists, and other creationist groups are small and insignificant - although even in these areas creationists can be well-funded and obstreperous. In Africa and South America large proportions of the Christian population are YECs. In the Arab world and other countries with large muslim communities young earth creationism, and other beliefs, such as the Flat Earth and geocentrism are widely held[citation required].
There are other creation myths, not of Judeo-Christian origin:
There are also other forms of anti-evolutionism not involving creation:

The Club collection is reminiscent of a 1930's English hunting lodge bespoke sophistication and luxury. Smoky tea-stained glass provides warmth and even light diffusion to contrast with the handsome bronze frame. Jewel-like pendants in a neutral distressed finish add even more panache for an elegant and well dressed effect to your home.
