The WillMature
I found out today even after all these years Joe was still a mystery.
I finally had the nerve to call Dorothy, Joe's mother, I haven't had the courage to hear his Will. She set up an appointment with Joe's lawyer friend this morning, she wanted his family to be there too, I just got back.
He left me everything: the house, two cars, three Yorkshire Terriers, multiple intelligent investments, a million dollar Life insurance policy, and a will to disperse it as I saw fit. There were family members I had never met at the reading and no one objected to this will, I wept openly. I continue now through tears to write that for the first time our love was validated. His family embraced my loss with open arms. If you've seen Joe's mom you'll know those are extraordinary arms to be embraced by. In his will there was a statement that "the cottage I leave to my Partner Ian and our dearly departed Mitzi". Mitzi was our first puppy, she loved Joe more than I did - she had the spirit of a stallion- but sadly like all my loves three years ago Mitzi gave in to a brain tumor and died.
I have to call tomorrow about this cottage.

All Welcome.
I felt a flicker of anger, but it soon died down. "It's not your fault." I said to Angel with a small sigh. "It just felt kind of claustrophobic over there, y'know? I'm not exactly a people person." I considered telling here that I hadn't actually been here on the journey to the Island, and just sort of jumped in, but I wasn't sure how she'd take that. Instead, I reluctantly put my book away, pulling out a notepad and colouring pens instead.
"What are you doing?" Angel asked as I started scribbling furiously on the paper. I glanced up at her, standing there awkwardly, and smiled.
"Making a sign, like he said." I bent my head back over my work, adding a few finishing touches, before ripping the page out and handing it to Angel.
She raised her eyebrows and looked at me in surprise. I just smiled again, plucking the sign from her hands and turning around to stick it to the wall (with my never ending supply of blu-tack) just above our heads.
Standing back to admire my handiwork, I nodded in satisfaction.
Recluse Corner.
All Welcome.

Comes the Dark(2006)
(The second book in the Johnny One Eye series)
A novel by David Stuart Davies
This novel is set in 1941 when the city is suffering under the bombardment of the German blitzkrieg. In the darkness of the blackout, Johnny is drawn into investigating the deaths of several prostitutes strangled by a desperate killer. At the same time, he infiltrates the Britannia Club, a dangerous underground fascist organisation bent on a Nazi invasion of Britain. As his investigations reach a thrilling climax, he is faced with the greatest challenge of his life. This complex and engrossing mystery is told with wit and humour, while evoking the atmosphere of London during the Second World War.

Model and Gossip Girl's latest addition Lydia Hearst might just take home the award for sauciest red carpet look. Her red Marc Bouwer gown has a never-ending train, but the crazy cutouts make it less elegant and more sexy. Is she on point or missing the point?

Around The Web
Akward seeing a sexy dress on a homely woman.
Lovely dress, but her hair & makeup need a make-over.
I just can't understand all the "Too skinny" comments. She looks great.
I like the dress, but she kinda scares me.
Would look lovely on someone who is not ANOREXIC! Curves are needed to fill out this dress. This girl needs serious help.
oh my oh my! with just enough fat to cover those bones, it might have looked a little more attractive...
Yeah, protruding ribs are really healthy.
I LOVE it! She's so beautiful and NOT too skinny at all. She's perfect looking.
the dress is beautiful... her face and hair are great... but she really needs to put on about 15 to 20 pounds.
I don't like it at all! I tried but I can't. She's too skinny, the dress is slutty, the hair is ugly, the makeup does her no good, her body makes me sick.

36. International Jazzfestival Saalfelden 27 to 30 August 2015
The festival has long since become a fixed point on the European jazz calendar, earning a particular reputation as a 'stage for freethinkers'. For more than three decades, jazz musicians from across the world have travelled at the end of August to the town with alpine soul, delighting concertgoers with their refreshing and colourful sounds.
The Saalfelden Jazz Festival is renowned for always being at the cutting edge, and is therefore one of the most experimental of its kind. The 31 concerts in 2014 will be held across seven stages, four of which are at mountain huts among the stunning backdrop of the Steinernes Meer Plateau.

Scottish – Irish – Celtic
Events honoring Celtic roots as well as customs have actually long been prominent. From the stirring cry of the bag pipe to the dress of formal tartan and kilt, wedding celebrations based upon facets of Celtic tradition can offer enduring memories. Aspects of these wedding events could consist of part or all the following:
Anam Cara - Actually, the Hearts other Half, this tradition is a unique event celebrating the production of an ageless love forever more. This celebration of the components; to the Celts the 4 components Earth, Fire, Water and Air were the foundations on which a successful partnership were developed.
Anam Cara
This practice was adapted as Christianity moved right into the Celtic lands and remains to be a fantastic means to include friends and family in your event.
Handfasting - A ceremony going back right to classical times, Handfasting is a custom of marriage prior to the accessibility of rings as well as precious metals. The couple would take an item of cloth or rope and before their families and friends, state their love and intention by stating a couple of words and also binding themselves with each other symbolically with the cordage. It is from this custom we still describe marriage as "tying the knot".
Oathing Stone -- Just what better location to put the pledges of a life time and eternity than in the heart of a stone? The oathing stone is held by the bride and groom while their promises are recited, after that in some practices is tossed into a deep body of water to hold those guarantees for evermore. Today that stone could be kept as a remembrance of this big day.
Oathing Stone
The Quaich - Originally crafted from timber the double handled Quaich was a Scotsman's canteen, mess kit and drinking mug rolled into one. King James of Scotland provided his betrothed Anne of Denmark a Quaich as a symbol of his love for her during the wedding, from that point on the Quaich has been called the "loving cup". This stunning event communicates the true blessings of Kith as well as Kin to the couple.
The Quaich
Pinning of the Tartan
Pinning of the Tartan - A new bride is formally approved into the bridegroom's family through this ceremony. Normally the oldest female participant of the bridegroom's family gives a piece of the family member 's Tartan to the bride-to-be indicating she is now interwoven into all the behaviors of the clan.
The presentation of the family sword - The martial origins of the Celtic individuals revolved around the protection of fireplace and also home. This event is the recognition of the male members of the new bride's family members that they too now have a new partnership and also a new sibling in arms.
Family Arms

Hammonds has seen a dramatic turnaround in fortune with average profit per equity partner (PEP) up 61 per cent to £328,000 after a year of tough management.
The firm's results, announced this morning (29 June) saw turnover rise by four per cent to £132.7m. Hammonds is now running with a profit margin of 23 per cent, a considerable improvement from 2005's 16 per cent margin.
Hammonds has also reduced its borrowings by 38 per cent and plans to continue to cut its overdraft, which in the past has been as high as £30m.
Finance director Laurence Campbell said: "There's a sense of planning and delivery which is very confidence-boosting. It's a turnaround year."
Managing partner Peter Crossley told The Lawyer: "This is a staging post; we're not saying we've reached the promised land." He said monthly partner drawings had increased "significantly" since 1 May this year.
Crossley added that the UK had seen the greatest improvement during the year, with the firm's dispute resolution and employment practices performing particularly strongly.
The results follow the cost-cutting measures implemented in February 2005 by Crossley as part of a radical management shakeup. The firm shed a total of 60 staff and fee-earners during the last financial year, with the workforce in the UK dropping below 1,000.
A 14-month lock-in of equity partners, which ends tomorrow (30 June) meant that none left Hammonds during the past year. However total partner numbers are down to 183, a net loss of 19. Hammonds has lost 31 partners in the UK, with nine of those quitting the London office.
Crossley declined to comment on whether any equity partners would resign following the end of the lock-in, but said that Hammonds was in the process of talking to potential new lateral hires.
Hammonds is now in the process of implementing the strategic review that has been carried out by Crossley and new strategy director Bernhard Gilbey. Crossley said the strategy, which will see changes including merit-based remuneration for partners and narrowing Hammonds' practice groups, had been embraced by the entire firm.
Crossley and Campbell also revealed that Hammonds is seriously examining whether to convert to LLP status in May next year.

Love this post. That old step stool brings back memories. Growing up, we had a red one in my kitchen. All six of us kids, took turns sitting on it, and watching all that took place in that room. You have a lovely porch, and the plants look very happy there. Have a great day.

Love the ferns and the herbs. Ferns just will not grow here outside. When it gets to 120 and 0% humidity they just curl up and die. I love them. Sure wish I could grow one. Yours look fabulous. Love that old washtub. Hugs, Marty

Your porch is just beautiful, Amy. I love ferns and if I didn't lose them over the winter in my lakehouse, I usually have two huge ones. I like that you do herbs in pots...I am going to try that later in the spring!
All of your containers are wonderful and I love your yellow stool. Those are the things I really enjoy finding at sales!
Hope you are having a great Saturday!

Amy~ love the pictures. Especially the lavender on the yellow step stool. am curious about the weather vane parts at the bottom of the photo. Are you planning something great for these pieces?
you make me chuckle- "...because of the thumb I was telling you about." ...you say that like it is black and NOT GREEN! ...he he he

Ok, now that I'm over my little burlap fit...
I do love your front porch! It's fabulous and I love the story about the hydrangeas :)
My favorite is the wash tub. But the yellow stool is a close second.
I think your ferns and lavender are beautiful. You have busy, and it looks great around there.
Talk to you soon

Hi Amy :)
Oh my hon! You have SO many amazing vintage goodies!
I'm luv'n, luv'n did I say luvvvv'n?...the tubs for your ferns! Can I "borrow" the wash tub on the stand?...but only after I rest on one of those beautiful rockers for awhile.

- Sheryl and Denny said...
Hey amy,
I love the washtub and stand too.... I can use it after ginger....Love your sack and ticking pillows, did you make those? I too remember my grandmother had a stool like yours and it was red also. Here in the south, my ferns stayed alive all winter, i managed to keep them inside, and misted them everyday so they would survive the winter.

Hi Amy!
Your front porch couldn't be any cuter! I love your ferns in the old tub and the grain sack pillows. I'm jealous of all your humidity because I have a really hard time growing herbs, here.
Happy Palm Sunday!

Everything looks so pretty ~ I love your porch! I adore ferns too but the heat is too much here in the summer time. The lavender looks great! I think I need to try that. I love having fresh herbs too.

Hi Amy!
Love the plants and flowers - hydrangeas are one of my favorites. But, the tubs and galvanized containers are absolutely lucious! I've never seen a galvanize tub like the one in your first photo. Is it a family heirloom or a wonderful find? I love it!
I haven't had a chance to browse your blog, but life is settling down and I'm looking forward to reading from front to back.

I use lots of ferns around here too! I love ferns and they're pretty fool-proof which is a good thing for me!

Love your ferns on your porch. I only wish we could see some green here! We had a yellow step stool like that when my kids were little. Sure wish I had it back today!
You will love having that lavender so close at hand in the summer...a perfect scent to swipe your hands through when you walk by! Happy Week to you- xxoo Diana

Oh Amy,
You made me laugh! Maybe I should print a post and put it on the front door! Thanks so much for your comments - they truly made my day.
I still want to know where you got that galvanized tub. Would love to follow you around for a few days while you are on the hunt...

- Anita @ GoingALittleCoastal said...
Amy, your ferns look beautiful. I need to feed mine, it's looking a little sad from surviving the winter. I have that exact yellow stool! I tried to seal the rust but it was still getting all over the pool deck. I tried spraying it more yellow because the rust had reaaaally spread but it's needs a little work. Maybe some sanding to bring back some of the rust :) It will be going in the garden. So it can rust away all it wants.

- Debbie said...
I love your front porch, Amy. It would make me want to knock on the door.
BTW, it hadn't occurred to me that hydrangeas would be blooming. They are? I think I remember that white tub on the stand when you bought it. Wasn't it in the past year?
As usual, I enjoy my inspiration here.

- Southern Shop Girls said...
That tub is a hand-me-down, Amy? Goodness, gracious, what a prize! My family never has things like that to offer me! =)
And you are in Tennessee? We are trying to move home to Arkansas. As soon as God sells this house in Texas, we will be headed that way. Can't wait to get "home", where we belong! =) Texas is wonderful, but as Dorothy said, "There's no place like home".
By the way, if you ever tire of that tub, I'll love to the moon and back... =)

Pep talk 2
I'm back again.
After winging it the first time I realised that winging it wasn't going to cut it to write down my entire life story. Somehow, putting words on a page isn't the same as regretting those moments for the rest of your life. Somehow, yeah.
I appreciate it when writers pour out their soul into a novel, I often do so myself: I wrote one that was about turning into an atheist and how I enjoyed that. I didn't. it wasn't fun. I lost a lot of friends, and partly my own mother, merely because I didn't believe the same things. But I made my decision. It was the first really big decision I made in my life and it was definitely the best one I have made so far.
Not because I like you, but because I want to follow my own adivce, I'm not going to even touch the surface beyond that point.
It seems like I do some of my best writing at about 3 in the morning. I don't know if this is raw guilt for being up, or just tiredness stripping away my morals, or whatever psychologists talk about. It seems that the writing you do that's most honest is the stuff you don't think about when writing it down. Hence my advice earlier. If you write when you're wide awake then you say things like "but I don't want my reader base to know about that part of me." Remember: your reader base is no one. Write what you like. Write what you feel, and what that made you feel.
Most importantly, write what is important to you. If it's not important, then don't talk about it as much. You should still talk about it, especially if you regret whatever it is, just not as much.
If you regret something that you really really wish you could take back; that you would literally bend the time-space continuum just to put right your wrong, then that's what you want to be focusing on. Not that petty argument that you had, but that massive thing that changed your life. Becoming an atheist, moving away from your social group that you were attached to, moving away from the people you love because of an addiction or some other matter.
These are the things that we hate to say to other people. And we hate to admit them to ourselves. Good thing you're not reading it then.
It takes real courage to write these things on paper, in text, or say them. If you can manage to say them, to someone else, then that is the way you should do it. Don't say it to yourself. That makes it worse. I know someone, in the kind of way you know someone famous, who spoke about his addiction on YouTube. The biggest video sharing site on the Internet, and he spoke (however reluctantly) about what had happened in his life, the biggest regret. That takes courage. That takes a special kind of courage, that maybe a lot of you don't have. Hence why I wrote the first one first: if you can write it on text to nobody, then you can take the next step, which is admitting it to yourself.
So you say you burned your paper? That's fine. Just ackowledge that you have made mistakes, and that those mistakes are irrepairable. As much as you'd like to, you cannot travel back in time and prevent yourself from doing something. They are in the past. They can never be changed. The present is now. Make it what it is. The present. The future is in the future, aspire not to make those mistakes, and don't make them. Bu the past you can't change, and that's a fact that I need to admit to myself.
So once you've written your 200-page beast from the Underworld, make sure it doesn't get on your freight train of thought, heading to the future.

It is 12 months since Elano admitted that he simply didn't enjoying playing on the hard winter pitches, with his "studs above the turf", and he is yet to rediscover the sparkle of that golden first autumn at the club, when the turf was soft. His compatriot Robinho, too, Mark Hughes admitted yesterday, will find working in the depths of December a new and challenging experience, with his own buoyant beginning replaced by an injury-hit winter so far.
A spot on the bench is the most likely place for him as Everton arrive at Eastlands today. Playing at Christmas does take some adjusting to for the Brazilians, Hughes said. "It's new to foreign players when they come to England [and] pretty much unique to the Premier League. We seem to want to stick to tradition and battle through, but maybe, on occasions, the quality of the games goes down as a consequence." That is why Hughes believes the enforced break may be no bad thing for a player who, before starting the Manchester derby with pain-killing injections for an ankle injury, had missed only the visits to Brighton and Schalke. "Maybe we will get the benefit of this further down the line, but he is still in every day. It's not as if he is having time off," Hughes said.
After showing the signs of his injury against United the 24-year-old was only back in training yesterday. "It's only a little point above his ankle that needs to resolve itself but the final 10 per cent of recovery can be the hardest," Hughes said. The manager will not be tempted to try more painkillers to render his £160,000-a-week player capable of starting today. "If there is a likelihood of compromising the player, then you don't give the injection," Hughes said. "It's just one point [on his ankle] that is concerning him when he tries to go flat out."

Hammonds has overhauled its management structure to give more power to office heads.
The heads of the national firm's offices in Leeds, London, Manchester and Birmingham now sit on its operations board.
They join managing partner Peter Crossley and Hammonds' international department heads. The board deals with the day-to-day running of the firm as well as long-term strategy. The revamped board will meet once a month.
Hammonds London head Robert Weekes said: "The idea is for office heads to take more of a lead in running the firm. As office heads we're very connected to the local economies and local clients."
In recent months Hammonds has created a number of new roles designed to boost revenue and better manage the firm's network.
Earlier this year it created five international liaison partner positions, with five UK partners made responsible for liaising with Hammonds' global offices (The Lawyer, 22 June).
The partners who won the roles were Carl Rohsler for Germany, Jan Lucas for France, Nick Allen for Brussels and Spain, and David Hull and Jan Bullen for the US. Weekes is in the process of recruiting a partner to work closely with China and the Far East.
During the 2008-09 financial year Hamonds' average profit per equity partner dropped by 25 per cent from £367,000 to £276,000. Turnover was down by 5 per cent, from £132m to £125.4m (The Lawyer.com, 9 July).

A friend of mine bought the Starcaster from this line of Fender guitars so I thought I'd get one of them myself. When I saw that this guitar had filtertron-style of pickups, I immediately thought about how I could make this guitar sound more like a Gretsch simply by swapping the pickups out for more "Gretsch" sounding filtertrons. I threw some Portertrons (made by Porter, obviously) in there and I haven't looked back since. This has become one of my favorite guitars to play. It's essentially a budget Gretsch guitar!

Gai Waterhouse
|This biographical article needs additional citations for verification. Please help by adding reliable sources. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately, especially if potentially libelous or harmful. (June 2008)
|Gai Waterhouse
|File:Replace this image female.svg only free-content images are allowed for depicting living people - see WP:NONFREE
|Birth date
|2 1954
Gai Waterhouse (maiden name Gabriel Marie Smith, born 2 September 1954[1]) is a Scottish-born, Australian resident horse trainer, businesswoman and a former actress
Waterhouse was educated at the Kincoppal-Rose Bay School in Sydney, and completed a Bachelor of Arts at the University of New South Wales in 1975[2]. The daughter of Randwick racehorse trainer TJ Smith, she made a name for herself as a model and actor, including in the Australian drama The Young Doctors before moving to England and appearing in the Doctor Who story The Invasion of Time. She then returned to Australia where she served an apprenticeship under her father for fifteen years before getting her own trainer's licence.
She was granted her Australian Jockey Club licence in January 1992, although this was made difficult as her husband, Robbie Waterhouse, was banned over his involvement in the Fine Cotton scandal. AJC rules at the time stipulated that the spouse of a banned person could not be licensed, although this was subsequently overturned. Her first winner was the horse Gifted Poet in March 1992, and her first Group One winner was Te Akau Nick in the Metropolitan Handicap in October that year. After TJ Smith became ill, he passed on the Tulloch Lodge stable to her in the 1994-95 season.
She was well-known to many Australians when Nothin' Leica Dane came into the Melbourne Cup in 1995 after winning the Victoria Derby three days earlier. The three year old colt ran second in the Melbourne Cup, a race which no three year old has won since Skipton in 1941.
In 1996-97 she had 10 Group One wins and won her first Sydney premiership. In 2001, Gai trifected the Golden Slipper and added the first of three successive Sydney training premierships, culminating with 156 wins in 2002/03, equalling her father's Sydney training record. In 2004/05 Gai had 11 Group One wins and added a fifth Sydney training premiership. As of the beginning of 2007 the Gai Waterhouse stable at Tulloch Lodge has won 75 Group One races.
Waterhouse's other successful horses include Golden Slipper winners Dance Hero, Ha Ha and the newly crowned 2008 Slipper winner Sebring, prolific Group One winners Grand Armee, Juggler, and All Our Mob as well as two time Epsom Handicap winner Desert War.
On 30 September 2000, she was awarded the Australian Sports Medal for "outstanding contribution to Thoroughbred Racing".
She is also an Australian Living Treasure nominated by the National Trust of Australia.
Gai was inducted into the Australian Racing's Hall of Fame in late November 2007. Her late father Tommy (T.J.) Smith is already an inductee.

Dark genius from keyboardist Bob James – one of his seminal 70s classics for CTI! The album follows strongly in the spirit of the records One and Two – using James' spacious approach to Fender Rhodes alongside some backings that are electric, yet have an earthily funky quality that really sets him apart from the pack! The set includes the sample classics "Storm King" and "Westchester Lady" – both of which are examples of James at his best – plus the cuts "Jamaica Farewell", "One Mint Julep", and "Women Of Ireland".

We realize that there are many different interpretations of the standard grades used for pre-owned vinyl record albums & CD, so we thought we'd offer you the ones that we are working with, so you have an idea what we mean when we give the grade for a non-new item on our pages.
Below are stated conditions for a used vinyl records at Dusty Groove. Grading for the cover should be assumed to be near (within a "+" or "-") the grading for the vinyl. If there is significant divergence from the condition of the vinyl, or specific flaws, these will be noted in the comments section of the item. However, please be aware that since the emphasis of this site is towards the music listener, our main concern is with the vinyl of any used item we sell. Additionally, please note that all of our records are graded visually; considering the volume of used vinyl we handle, it is impossible for us to listen to each record. If we spot any significant flaws, we make every attempt to listen through them and note how they play.
The following grading conditions apply to the vinyl component of an album or single:
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Wisconsin Instructional Leader of the Year Award
WASCD is pleased to announce that Darcy Budnik of CESA #1 has been named the 2016 Instructional Leader of the Year.
This award is intended to recognize individuals who are proven leaders in curriculum, instruction and assessment and who have advocated for policies and practices that lead to increased student performance. The award winner was recognized at the WASCD Fall Conference and received a scholarship to be used to attend a future ASCD or WASCD program.
As a Director of Teaching and Learning, Darcy serves a diverse region in Wisconsin serving both the smallest and largest school districts in the state, some of the most economically challenged districts and all in the most culturally diverse region. Her visionary leadership is grounded in best practices that maximize student achievement.
Darcy significantly contributes to the mission of WASCD through her work, and is a growing leader in the profession of public education. She is an energetic, enthusiastic proponent of quality education for all children. She brings a strong passion for all aspects of education, a depth of knowledge toward instructional improvement and strength in leadership. She has been a member since 2012 and was a presenter at last year's fall conference on the topic of Connecting and Communicating.
Before CESA #1, Darcy worked as a director of curriculum and principal in the Kewaskum School District. Prior to that she was an associate principal in Wauwatosa and started her career in education as an English teacher.

Seventeen: Frustration
"Hi, this is Andrea. I can't come to the phone right now, but please leave your name and number, and I will return your call. Thank you."
"Hi, Andrea-it's me again. Keith. Please call me back. Give me a chance to explain it all; it was really by coincidence. Trust me, I did not want to see her again by any means. I came to see you!" I sighed, running my hand over my face. It was almost the same message I had left before. "I'm sorry. Please, please call me back. I.....miss you. Talk to you later. Bye."
I hung up, hitting my head with the phone. That was probably the hundredth time I had called her in the past few days. Defeated, I set it back in it's cradle, rubbing my face with my hands. "Still not answering?" came Harry's voice in my cubicle's entrance. I didn't bother looking up-I wasn't in the mood.
"Geez, what did you do? How can you screw up two decent relationships so badly?" he continued. "Are you that bad with women? I could help you out...."
Sighing, I looked up. "Thanks, Harry. But I'd rather not."
Harry nodded briskly, "Alright. Anything I can do for you-just tell me."
I gave him a half smile, "Thanks." He grinned once more and made his exit, finally catching that I didn't really want to take his advice right now-if that's what you could call it.
I looked at the phone again. Maybe I'd try calling her at home instead of on her cell....

Opponents and proponents of erotic representations (referred to hereafter as "pornography") have described the effects of pornography from their perspective. Little, however, has been done in the way of research to investigate these claims from the consumer's point of view. This especially has been so regarding the positive impact of such consumption on a person's sex life. Using a study group of 245 college students, we examined this question in a framework of scripting theory. We wanted to see whether viewing pornography appeared to expand sexual horizons through normalization and facilitate a willingness to explore new sexual behaviors and sexual relationships through empowerment. The data supported this viewpoint and further showed the effects to be mediated by gender and sexual preference identity. They suggested, however, that established scripts were extended rather than abandoned. We conclude with connections between our findings and the widespread viewing of pornography in contemporary society.
