Awards Giving
My mother eyed me suspiciously the next morning at breakfast.
I'd spent the night as a wolf, curled up under the bed. Jax had told me that if I was scared or panicked I would find it harder to shift, and I had been both all night.
"Did you go out yesterday?"
"Yes, I popped to the corner shop to buy paper, we had to do a writing project since school was cancelled." I'd had a long time to think of my excuse, and thankfully my mother seemed to buy it.
"Well, you could have told me where you were going, and you're still grounded! Although-"
She paused, and I looked up from my soggy cereal, hoping she was lifting my grounding.
"Don't look at me like that! You're not off the hook yet. However, the school emailed. They said they would be opening on Monday again, as they've caught one of the culprits." I noticed how my mother didn't say the word 'Shadow Shifter' aloud. "But they are having guards posted around the school grounds, ones trained in dealing with these cases, so they feel you'll be alright. Anyway, next week is the Awards Giving, so you'll have to attend that."
The Awards Giving was held at the end of every summer term, and was an two and a half hours of names being read out, and bits of paper handed to students who had achieved well. I found it boring as heck, and I'd never achieved an award before.
"But Aria," My mother continued. "You're still grounded remember, so no sneaking off to Annora's or Isaac's. You come straight home, okay?"
I sighed. "Yes mother." I said mockingly, and she rolled her eyes at me lightly.
"Well go on then Aria, you better write that project." She said.

How does one define a good time? Every individual has their our own preferences and expectations. Their own boundaries and comfort levels. Combining the levels of enjoyment of each of these things, is probably what defines one's level of good during a certain time period. Money is also always a factor, when discussing conventions or anything else, for that matter. So, a good time could be formulated to each individual based on all of those factors. Mine runs on some form of this equation… LEVEL OF STRESS/THINGS THAT MADE ME SMILE OR LAUGH + MEMORABLE MOMENTS = FUN LEVEL (wow…that is… Read more »

I was dating a guy for two years, we had been through a lot, and the whole time we were together he allowed his ex to occasionally talk to him here and there. I broke up with him when I found out that she had sent him s birthday card and he didn't tell me about it. He begged me for months to take him back and for months I said no or just ignored him. I was hurt, very hurt. Over time I thought he had changed and was really sorry so I decided to give him another shot and start dating him again. I ended up finding out that while we were broken up he was now dating guess who? His ex! I told him are you kidding me? The whole time we were together you told me you hated her and even if we broke up forever you would never date her. So that pretty much means to me that all those times he spoke to her and when he lied about the card, there were probably feelings behind that so everything he told me was a lie. He told me he loved me, and the only reason he gave her another shot was because she showed him care and attention when he needed it after I left him. He said he would break up with her if I wanted him back. I told him she was the reason I left so why would he even want any part of that if you really cared? He broke up with her, but I left and have not spoken to him since and it has been about three months. I was alright and trying to be happy and heal until I found out that they got back together and she is now pregnant. It killed me, I learned everything he told me was a lie, he never cared, and he has moved on so fast and is about to start a family. How can I be ok? How can I keep from just calling him or emailing him how he hurt me and he should be ashamed of his self? I want to just yell and scream at him because I feel like such a fool, I feel like he got on over on me. I don't want to be with him I made that decision a long time ago, but I can't help but be upset that I lost two years of my life for someone that could just treat me this way. How do I get over this? How do I get over thinking that he thought I was nothing? I planned on being with him forever, he told me the same now he gets to move on and start a new life and family and I'm just here alone and shocked. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
|been in your shoes.. i survived so can you.. on Dec 04, 2010 @ 08:58 pm
You just need to be strong.. it hurts i agree.. im over it now but it took me some time.. I was with my ex for 9 years we have a beautiful little girl together, but there was no trust, no communication. I thought i was going to spend my life with him, but when he couldn't tell me he actually cared and he actually wanted me in his life, I packed up my daughter and i left.. It was a little easier because i moved to a different town, but still hard.. I missed him all the time, I knew he started seeing other people right away, well i sat and pinned for him. and eventually he got another pregnate.. It was really hard.. but i relyed on my friends and family to help me through it.. you need to keep busy, keep your mind occupied so you don't think of him, if you are around someone and they start to talk about him then leave.. It takes some time, but if he never cared enough to show you he cared then you need to let go and not let it hurt you.. you need to be strong.. In the end it can be worth it.. Its been nearly 4 years since i left my ex.. I am so happy i did.. its takin some time since leaving him but i found my one.. its a hard process but it can be worth it.. you need to be happy.. so.. just try and be strong and keep yourself busy
|It sure ain't easy on Dec 13, 2010 @ 02:08 pm
I understand how you ladies feel. I too recently ended a three year relationship with a man that I thought I would someday marry. Even though he broke my heart in the worst way possible, believe me when I say there are days (especially during the holiday season) when all I do is wish he was still a part of my life. I want to call him, email him, and on some days I've even done...which I've always profusely regretted. Whilst the light at the end of the tunnel seems a bit far out of reach, and silver lining doesn't seem so bright, I take comfort in knowing that I'm not alone in this. On my saddest of days, I'm grateful that I have a wonderful network of friends who make me smile. Cheers :)

I like making these place mats to use with play dough, they are fun, protect your tables and homemade! 1. Gather your materials. You will need 1 piece of paper towel, some markers, fun stickers , contact paper and scissors. 2. Color your paper towel with markers, my son used black and orange naturally. 3. Add your stickers. 4. When the decorating is done, press the paper towel face down on the contact paper. I cut a piece 2 times the size of the paper towel. Then fold the other half over and smooth.

Recently converted from a Ursuline convent school. Fabulous sweeping wooden staircase dominates the central part of the hotel. A good bar on the ground floor. A decent breakfast with good coffee served on the first floor. Busy when we there on a Thursday but very efficient staff looked after us well. The bedrooms are very good with superb double bed and excellent quality bedding. Very quiet but disappointingly unable to open the windows. A/c was not obtrusive. Quirky bathroom and good rainfall shower. Centrally located with underground car park. Sittard has a typical Limburg town square with a good choice of restaurants. Good stop over and highly recommended.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Hotel Merici Sittard is an unusual accommodation, as the 4* hotel is established in a beautifully renovated cloister in the beating heart of Sittard. The sounds of the city barely permeate the thick walls of the former Company of St. Ursula Cloister. The name 'Merici' comes from the founder of the convent order: Angela de Merici. Between 1843 and 1946 girls were schooled in the hotel's adjoining buildings. Merici is one of the seven special monuments in the Cloister Quarter.Every morning, Hotel Merici serves a delicious breakfast buffet in the former refectory with live front show cooking. A romantic picnic hamper or a practical lunch box can also be ordered on request. The hotel operates in accordance with the Green Key Label, an international hallmark. Hotel Merici strives for a healthy environment, and opts for the use of sustainable products and the employment of energy saving measures. As such, organic, fairtrade and regional products are used wherever possible.The #a la carte restaurant Wine & Dine serves heavenly dishes, and is just 75 m from the hotel. The restaurant has an intimate outdoor terrace on the atmospheric and historic market square. It is also possible to have a drink and a small bite in the hotel's lounge & bar. After a lovely day you can enjoy a wonderful slumber in hotel rooms comprising of harmonious furnishings. All rooms are equipped with airconditioning, free WI-FI, excellent beds, LCD flat-screen TV, safe, Nespresso coffee facilities and a spacious bathroom with rainshower and seperate toilet. The rooms come with a minibar, stocked on request. A complimentary bottle of water will await you in your room upon arrival.

From the front of the hotel, you can easily walk to the Basilica, the Oude Markt and the pleasant shopping area. By train it will take you 40 minutes to reach the exuberant city of Maastricht. Sittard train station is a 10-minute walk from Hotel Merici. Roermond, Dusseldorf, Hasselt and Antwerp are also interesting cities to visit in the area. The German Eifel (low mountain range) or the Belgian Ardennen are wonderful places for walking, no matter the season. Snowworld Landgraaf is a great place to go skiing, while the Thermae 2000 in Valkenburg and Carolus Thermen in Aachen are a blessing for both body and soul. ... more less

The Getty Looks East: A New Exhibition Connects Rubens and Korea Here in Los Angeles | KCET
The Getty Looks East: A New Exhibition Connects Rubens and Korea Here in Los Angeles
Asian Accents: This article is part of an ongoing series that explores the diverse range of artistic influences from Asia in the arts and culture of Southern California.
The Getty Museum is not usually a great destination for Asian art lovers. The important Los Angeles art institution is much better known for its Greek and Roman antiquities, European paintings and drawings, and European and American photographs. Nor do we typically hear of an object in its collection improving international relations. News stories have tended to focus on other nations' accusations that it illegally acquired their artifacts. A new exhibition at the Getty Museum, "Looking East: Rubens' Encounter with Asia," presents a brilliant study of a European artist's curiosity about Asia and the impact Christian missionaries had on cultural and artistic exchange between Europe and Asia (not just the Americas!). More importantly, however, the exhibition is the culmination of years of artistic and intellectual exchange between the US and Korea and is an inspiring example of a Southern California art institution bringing cultures together.
Sometime around the year 1617, the Flemish Baroque painter Peter Paul Rubens drew a figure of a man wearing white robes with long sleeves and a black hat made of fine gauze. The man's fine bone structure and his direct stare challenges to the viewer to stare back and to wonder who he is. Where is he from? What is he wearing? How did he become the subject of a Rubens drawing at a time when very few Asians were in Europe?
The drawing, known as "Man in Korean Costume," was apparently well known in Rubens' time. A copy by one of his pupils is included in the exhibition. In 1774, the British artist William Baillie reworked and reversed the image in a print, inscribing it, "Siamese Ambassador Who attended the Court of King Charles I." The figure was generally considered Siamese until 1934, when British scholar Clare Stuart Wortley (crediting British Museum curator Basil Gray) pointed out that, based on the figure's headgear, the costume was actually Korean. For decades after this, the drawing remained in a private British collection and did not receive significant international attention.
It wasn't until the drawing was acquired by the Getty in the 1983 that it came under close academic scrutiny, in particular by Korean scholars keen to determine who the figure in Korean costume could be. One Korean historian claims he was the "Joseon Man," a Korean man enslaved by invading Japanese armies in the late 16th century, hired by a Dutch merchant in Japan as an attendant, and then brought back to the Netherlands. Other Korean scholars argue that he is Antonio Corea, a freed Korean slave who resided in Rome around 1600. But no documentation exists to prove that Rubens met or drew either of these men. Korean curiosity about the identity of the figure has made the drawing famous in Korea. It has been lent twice to museums in Seoul. More remarkably, the Getty drawing inspired a Korean novel in 2002 by O Se-yeong entitled "Beniseu ui Kaesong sangin (The Gaesong Merchant of Venice)" and even a Korean musical!
The exhibition at the Getty breaks new ground in the study of this mysterious drawing, presenting the work in a truly global setting, as befits a major art institution located in a culturally diverse city. Exhibition curator Stephanie Schrader, a specialist in European Baroque painting and Rubens, collaborated with a German scholar Burglind Jungman, Professor of Korean Art History at UCLA (and the only Korean art professor in the U.S.), and with several costume scholars from Korean national museums to position the drawing within the context of 17th-century European and Korean culture.
Convinced that the drawing depicts a man of unknown origin dressed in Korean costume, rather than a specific Korean model, Schrader explores the costume itself, examining its possible role in trade, religion and politics in both Europe and Korea. For Europeans of that time, Asia was a destination for trade and Jesuit missionary work. Merchants and Jesuit priests alike brought exotic garments back with them from Asia and some commissioned Rubens and his contemporaries to portray them wearing these robes. This was not simply fancy dress. As the exhibition demonstrates, a portrait of a Jesuit priest in Chinese robes would symbolize his success spreading Christianity in China. Similarly, in paintings such as Rubens's "Miracles of St. Francis Xavier," the inclusion of exotic foreigners in native dress below the figure of the saint illustrates the spiritual reach of these renowned missionaries, in much the same way that contemporary Franciscan fathers in Southern California had artists memorialize the conversions and baptisms of native Americans in paintings and prints.
In contemporary Korea, such a costume would have been worn by a high-ranking government official. Shown for the first time outside Korea, two very rare examples of robes -- a skirted cheollik with long sleeves and a full-length, short-sleeved dapho -- worn together by a 16th-century Korean official help us better understand the structure of the voluminous robes of Rubens's figure. Two Korean portraits of court officials wearing similar robes provide a fascinating contrast with the Rubens drawing, while also showing traces of Western artistic influence such as shading, introduced to Korea from China, where it was taught by Europeans.
Peter Paul Rubens was not only an artist, but also a diplomat working for rulers in courts across Europe. He may not, however, have known of Korea's existence. In the early 17th century, when he drew this exotic portrait, the "Hermit Kingdom" of Korea was dwarfed by its larger, wealthier neighbor China and was barely visible on world maps. Now in 2013, South Korea is a powerful cultural force worldwide and almost half a million Korean-Americans live in California (most of these in the Los Angeles area). Yet, artistic and cultural exchange between the US and Korea has been limited. Says Schrader, "The Getty, with its Museum, Research Institute, Conservation Institute and Foundation was the perfect institution to develop an exhibition that examines cultural exchange." She believes that, just as Rubens was an artist-diplomat, the Getty too can be an institutional diplomatic force. "Seeing the number of Koreans in our galleries since the exhibition opened," she adds, "I now know that this is true."
The exhibition Looking East: Rubens's Encounter with Asia is on view at the Getty Center from March 5 to June 9, 2013.

... using their carts far too much, which cause noise and you need to make way for them on the paths. My favourite animals were the elephant nosed shrew, the black and white animal, the prairie dogs and the monkey that had an old man face. The baby orang-utan was also very cute. Some of the ways the animals were displayed was awesome. You would walk along paths and the animals were right there in what looked like natural habitat. Often there were no bars. Frustratingly there were ...
Off to next phase of trip
... on the flight to Omaha due to supposedly bumpy flight (it wasn't that bad). It's definitely cooler in Omaha, with the temp in the high teens rather than the mid to late 20s we have had to date. We got a pretty good car, a Sonata, from National car rental, and I felt really comfortable straight away driving on right side of road and left side of the car. The previous experiences have made it easy to get back into being on the other ...

We learned how to "queue", and how to make change in two currencies. We learned that the ground floor isn't always the first floor.

Comedian Wanda Sykes brushed aside her low blow about Rush Limbaugh's kidneys failing as no big deal on CNN's AC360 on Thursday: "Was it...too far for that room? Yes, it was...but, hey, you shouldn't invite me....I think everybody would have been disappointed if I hadn't gone too far. Sykes also gushed wildly over President Obama during the interview: "He is like the George Clooney of presidents."
Anchor John King, filling in for Anderson Cooper, interviewed Sykes 45 minutes into the 10 pm Eastern hour, and brought up the issue of the Limbaugh crack mid-way through the interview: "As you know, there were one or two lines [from Sykes's appearance at the White House Correspondents' Dinner] that got a little bit of a gasp and a groan in the room. One of them was when you were making fun and criticizing Rush Limbaugh." After playing a clip of the line in question, he asked, "Any regrets for that? As you know, there was a big gasp in that room. Washington wasn't quite ready for that one."
Sykes was largely unapologetic in her answer, just as she was in her interview earlier that day with NBC's Meredith Vieira: "Still makes me laugh. I don't know. (laughs) The thing is, everyone laughed at the first part. But then it's the tag line when I said- you know, I hope his kidneys fail. You know, was it- it's too far for that room? Yes, it was too far for that room. But, hey, you shouldn't invite me. You know what you're going to get, you know? I think everybody would have been disappointed if I hadn't gone too far."
Earlier in the interview, the CNN anchor brought up President Obama as a subject of comedy: "In recent history, when you had Bill Clinton, you had the southern thing. A lot of comics said he looked a little funny. Then you had the comedic gift of the Monica Lewinsky scandal. Bush comes to town and he's from Texas and he talks a little funny and there's the Bushisms, and people had a lot of fun making fun of him. What about Barack Obama? Is he as easy a target as the material is rich?"
The comedian seemed to channel Chris Matthews and just became awestruck over the President: "You know what? He's...just cool. He is like the coolest president that we've had. I mean, he is like the George Clooney of presidents. You know, he walks in the room. All the women want to be with him and all the guys want to be him. You know? He's just cool. I've never heard women like this before. You know, he walks in a room, and they're all like, 'Ooh, I'll have his baby.' It's like- jeez, hey, he's not John Edwards, all right? He's Barack Obama. Calm down."
When King asked the comedian, who "came out of the closet" as a lesbian in 2006, about Obama's record on the homosexual agenda at the end of the interview, Sykes acknowledged her disappointment in the President, but still sang his praises:
KING: Grade the President on this one. He gave a big speech to the Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest gay rights organization, not that long ago, and there were a number of standing ovations. The President said, 'I want to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act. I want to repeal don't ask, don't tell. I want to do some other things that are important to the gay and lesbian community.' But there were also a lot of people in the room who said, 'Nice speech, Mr. President, but you've been in office almost 10 months now. Where's the proof you're going to deliver?' Grade the President.
SYKES: As far as with gay rights, yeah, he's failing in that. But if you look at- I grade him overall. Because that, to me, I'm more- I'm just as concerned with our country as a whole. So when you look at- you know, the economy and- you know, and jobs and education, then- I mean, he was in a big, big hole when he took office, you know. So everything has to- you know, I want to say get in line. And yeah, the LGBT community doesn't really want to- you know, be at the back of the line, but as long as we're in the line. To me, he had to bring this country back to life, just like he gave us life-saving CPR, and for me to slap him about- you know, not moving ahead on gay rights. That's like somebody giving you CPR and you go, 'Oh, your breath stinks.' I mean, it's (laughs) - you know, I'm just grateful that the country is still surviving. You know, the Dow went up to 10,000 last week. I mean, to me, he's doing a great job, and like I said, I really believe that eventually he'll get to the other issues with gay rights.
Sykes was also interviewed earlier in the evening on CNN during Campbell Brown's program, but Brown didn't raise the Limbaugh issue at all during the segment. Instead, the CNN anchor threw softball questions at the comedian, asking her about motherhood and her upcoming show on Fox.

The Vermont Mountaineers defeated the Newport Gulls 5-4 in a New England Collegiate Baseball League game at Recreation Field on Saturday afternoon.
The Mountaineers led 5-0 until the top of the 8th when the Gulls offense erupted. Trace Tam Sing (Washington St.) started things off with a one out single. Ben Roberts (Washington St.) followed with an RBI double. Adrian English (Barry) came up next and hit an RBI single to score Roberts from second. English moved all the way to third on the play because the ball got passed center fielder Mike Triller (Clemson). Timmy Robinson (USC) pinch hit for Steve Anderson (Georgetown) and hit an RBI single to make it 5-3 Vermont. Joe Iorio (Barry) pinch ran for Robinson. Ethan Ferriera (Harvard) followed with a single to make it first and second with one out. Nick Naradowy (Rhode Island) came on in relief of David Rosenberger (Virginia) and got the lefty Ty Moore (UCLA) to fly out. Pat Delano (Vanderbilt) came in and faced Brett Winger (Michigan). He threw a pitch that got by Kevin Krause Krause (Stony Brook) and allowed both runners to advance on a passed ball to make it second and third with one away and the tying run at second. Another passed ball scored Iorio from third to make it 5-4. Ferriera, who represented the tying run, moved 90 feet away. Delano got out of the jam without allowing the tying run to score.
The Vermont offense scored four runs in the 2nd inning thanks to some great hitting by the bottom half of the lineup. Kyle Smith (Vanderbilt) hit a one out triple. Matt MacDowell (Dartmouth) followed with an RBI single to make it 1-0 Mountaineers. Dan Mendick (UMASS-Lowell) walked to make it first and second with one out. Bret Dennis (St. John's) hit an RBI double to score MacDowell and make it second and third with one out. Mike Triller followed with the big blow. He hit a two RBI double to give Vermont a 4-0 lead.
Vermont added what proved to be a very important insurance run in the 7th when Kyle Smith hit an RBI double.
David Rosenberger got the win for the Mountaineers. He pitched very well until running into trouble in the 8th. Rosenberger went seven and a third and allowed four runs (three earned) on seven hits. He struck out four.
Pat Delano earned his first save of the season for Vermont. He threw an inning and a third and allowed no runs, no hits and one walk. He struck out one.
Darin Gillies (Arizona St.) took the loss for Newport. He gave up five runs on ten hits and a walk over six and two-thirds innings pitched. He struck out six Mountaineers.
The Vermont Mountaineers handled the Ocean State Waves in game two of the day-night New England Collegiate Baseball League doubleheader by a 6-3 final score. Vermont is now on a four game winning streak.
It was a closely contested game all the way until the 8th when the Mountaineers added to their 2-1 lead in the bottom of the inning. Dan Mendick (UMASS-Lowell) led off the inning with an infield single. Chandler Brock (Alabama-Huntsville) followed with a bunt single to setup first and second with no one out. Thomas Roulis (Dartmouth) then executed a very nice sacrifice bunt down the third base line. Pitcher Liam O'Sullivan (Rhode Island) and third basemen Caden Bailey (Georgia St.) collided as they were going for the ball. All three runners were safe on the play. That set the stage for bases loaded with no one out for Scott Donley (Indiana). He hit a two RBI double just inside the bag at third and all the way down the left field line. Mendick and Brock scored on the play to make it 4-1 Vermont with second and third and no one out. Mike Vigliarolo (St. Louis) came up next and hit a two RBI single to put the game out of reach and make it 6-1 Vermont.
Cody Brown (Central Connecticut State) pitched very well for the Mountaineers. He went seven innings and allowed one run on four hits and three walks. He also struck out two. He earned the win to improve to 4-1 on the summer.
Liam O'Sullivan was also strong for Ocean State. He didn't have his best stuff, but lasted seven innings. He gave up four runs on eight hits and no walks. He also struck out two Mountaineers. He fell to 1-3 with the loss.
Robert Strader (Louisville) earned his second save in as many days. He allowed two runs (both unearned) on two hits and no walks. He struck out one.
With the two wins on Saturday and a Keene Swamp Bats loss, the Mountaineers have regained sole possession of first place in the Western Division. Vermont will play Keene on Sunday in the final regular season meeting between the two teams. The first pitch is set for 5 p.m. at Alumni Field in New Hampshire.

People Hate Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo found out in his morning papers that he had been named in a 100-strong list of irritations for the great British public this year.
Ronaldo found himself 43rd – ahead of kids kicking the back of your seat on a plane and Heather Mills.
And Manchester United's Portuguese superstar proved to be a real pest for Blackburn boss Paul Ince too as he made all the difference on a rain-sodden day at Ewood Park.
His teamwork couldn't be faulted. His build-up play awesome. His effectiveness unquestioned.
The only criticism would have been his lack of clinical finishing which, by his high standards of last season, was well below his best.
But that won't matter to boss Sir Alex Ferguson this morning after collecting three valuable points from his bogey ground to catapult United back into the top six.
ronny's explanation of the hatred could be traced back to this interview a couple of seasons ago:
"I don't know why. Maybe some people don't like me. Maybe I'm too good."
edit: __papillon found the list!

8 am | 9 am | 9:15 am | 11:15 am | 5 pm | Child Care | Links
A traditional service of Holy Eucharist with a sermon, and no music. Quiet and contemplative–it is great for people whose spirituality craves stillness and/or who like to worship early on Sundays.
Child care is available for infants and children to age 3 from 8:45 am to 12:45 pm every Sunday during the program year (early September through early June) in Rm 247.
This service of Holy Eucharist features a sermon, hymns and service music, led by choirs and organ accompaniment. During the sermon time, children ages 3-8 are invited to go to StoryTime with an experienced story-teller. This features an age-appropriate story, music and prayers that mirror the worship continuing in the sanctuary. They rejoin their families for Eucharist. During the offering, children carry gifts of food in an informal procession to baskets located near the altar. This food is donated to Samaritan Ministry of Greater Washington.
Healing prayer is offered during the Communion time. The 9 am service manages to be both traditional and lively for people of all ages.
The 30-minute service in the Great Hall is geared toward young children and their families, with participatory music and liturgy. There is lively singing and movement, and the children gather in front of the altar as a clergy person or story-teller shares a story and message geared for children. The Holy Eucharist is celebrated with great joy. It is holy chaos in the best sense. Experiencing the Great Hall services is a great preparation for those children who want to take part in the 9 am Eucharist in the Church Nave when they reach school age.
Sunday School and child care are offered at 10 am, along with our Sunday (Adult) Forum at 10:10 am. We invite you for fellowship (or shall we say, Donut Hour) that follows each service.
This service of Holy Eucharist hews to the more formal tradition of Anglican worship, even as it is relaxed in flow. It features some of our best musical talents–our adult choirs, the St. Columba's Singers and the Singers Ensemble, are sometimes joined by handbell choirs and St. Columba's Chamber Orchestra to put forth the glories of Anglican music, as well as music from diverse traditions. Healing prayer is offered during the communion time. Good preaching, vibrant singing and deep prayer mark the last of our Sunday morning services in the Church Nave. There is no story for children during this service, but across the way, there is…
This 30-minute service is similar to the 9:15 am Great Hall service, though slightly more subdued. It is perfect for young children and their families, and those who enjoy their worship more casual and playful. Everyone participates in lively singing, action and movement, and the children gather in front of the altar for an engaging presentation of the Gospel story and the offering of prayers. Children enjoy a thoroughly age-appropriate style of worship and all may receive Holy Communion.
Live@5 is an alternative Eucharist with contemporary music and multimedia storytelling, held at 5 pm on specific Sundays during the program year. It takes place in the Great Hall, where we gather in the round to worship, reflect on scripture and imagine the life God is calling us to live. The service begins with lively singing and candle lighting. Then we share scripture stories through drama, music and video. We conclude by sharing God's grace through the bread and wine of Holy Communion, before we are sent out (usually 45 minutes later) to live as Christ's body in the world. Live@5 services are scheduled for the last Sunday of the month: Jan. 29, Feb. 26, Mar. 26, Apr. 30, May 28 and June 25.

They enjoy their lunch by watching the crowd in solemn silence and sitting on the edge of a fountain. The fountain is still on, but the water doesn't splash and waver by the edge of the basin. Blue almost abandons his hot dog to dive into the water, but Sarah quickly catches him.
"You can't go swimming, not in this weather. Eat your hot dog," she reminds, and watches as he frowns slightly while biting the hot dog. Dejected at this disappointment, Sarah dips her fingers into the water and smiles encouragingly. Hesitantly, he dips his finger in as well, washing off the droplet of mustard as he flicks up water with a smile.
He abruptly stops playing with the water, staring intently at the surface. Worried, Sarah peers in, but only finds his reflection. "It's just your reflection," she says and his confusion peaks as he pokes the mirror-image in the face. The water flutters and blurs the image, but when the surface settles, his image is once again clear. Her concern vanishes when he brings his hot dog back to his mouth, watching himself eat with an amused, silent laugh.

New Delhi, Dec.4 : The lone terrorist who was picked up alive after last week's terror attacks, Ajmal Amir Kasav,has said that attackers were motivated to strike after seeing video footage of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi and Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Praveen Togadia "spitting venom" against jihad and Pakistan.
Police nabbed Kasav following an encounter.
'We were shown footage of Narendra Modi and Praveen Togadia,' Kasav told his interrogators. The interrogation report also says that the terrorists were shown footage of "Gujarat carnage and atrocities on Muslims in India" to rouse religious ill feelings.
He and other terrorists in the training camps were subjected to severe beatings by their trainers in order to develop resistance against any kind of interrogation. Ajmal also revealed that all the terrorists were involved in the attack were between 20 to 28 years of age. The terror group, which attacked Mumbai, was imparted training at various camps and in different groups, before assembling near Karachi,the interrogation has revealed.
'We never met earlier,all the 10 attackers met for the first time in September',Kasav has claimed. He said Mufti Sayeed, Fahadullah, Ustad Abdul Rahman and Abu Anus gave them maritime training and taught how to use the sophisticated weapons and grenades.
Investigators say that those of named by Ajmal as tutors, many had retired from Pakistan Army and were imparting training at Lashkar camps in coordination with the ISI. The first of the training camps took place in December last year, he said.

January 8, AD 79
Next week Fabiola and I are going to the colosseum to visit with her twin brother, Felix. Fabiola and Felix have been my closest friends for years, my only friends. We met when I was just six, they seven. It was soon after the Great Earthquake, and my father needed some help around the house. He purchased a new slave, a man who's wife had been killed in the Earthquake. My father is a compassionate man and allowed the man to keep his children. At that time, I did not get along well with others my age. But here were two new faces, and I was date to make new friends. After a bit of persuading from my father, the three of us ran off. We have been inseparable since.
But five years ago, the colosseum was rebuilt, and Felix was sent there to train as a gladiator. That was by car the worst day of my life, and I'm sure Fabiola's as well. We could no longer see him everyday, and there was no guarantees that he would survive the year.
But Felix is strong, and he soon rose through the ranks to become one of the most popular fighters here in Pompeii. And Fabiola and I could not be more proud if him. We can't wait to see him next week.
All my love,

Li & Fung shares drop nearly 5pc on report about Wal-Mart cutting orders
Global exporter Li & Fung said business with its major customer Wal-Mart Stores is normal, but its shares still slid as much as 4.9 per cent on a report that the US retailer is cutting orders to suppliers.
"There has been no cancellation of orders from Wal-Mart, and we continue to do business with them as usual. Also, Wal-Mart is continuing to place orders for next year as normal," a spokeswoman from Hong Kong-based Li & Fung said in an e-mail reply to Reuters.
Wal-Mart's shares fell 1.5 per cent on Wednesday after a report by Bloomberg said the retailer is cutting orders with suppliers this quarter and next quarter to address rising inventories.
Shares of Li & Fung, which has a market value of US$12.7 billion, fell to the lowest in four weeks at HK$11.20. The stock was at HK$11.30 at 11.24am HKT, down 3.9 per cent, lagging a 0.5 per cent fall in the benchmark Hang Seng Index.
The Bloomberg report said that last week, an ordering manager at the company described the pullback in an e-mail to a supplier, who said other suppliers received similar messages.
"The story is completely inaccurate," said Wal-Mart spokesman David Tovar. "Merchandise goes up and down at stores every day."
Wal-Mart shares, a component of the Dow Jones industrial average, fell as much as 2.9 per cent after the report was published on Wednesday before closing 1.5 per cent lower at US$74.65 on the New York Stock Exchange.
Bill Simon, the chief executive of Walmart US, the company's largest division, said in August that inventory in his US division jumped 6.9 per cent that quarter, citing softer-than-anticipated sales, a delay in the arrival of warm summer weather and shifts in the timing of when it received back-to-school and holiday merchandise.
"While we're not concerned about the quality of the inventory, it will continue to be an area of focus in the coming months," Simon said on the company's conference call after it released quarterly earnings on August 15.
Some companies that supply to Wal-Mart have already said or hinted that the retailer was decreasing certain orders. Elizabeth Arden, for example, said on August 8 that Wal-Mart ordered less than it had anticipated, especially in June.
Still, the retailer has been forecasting better sales. Simon said on September 11 that he expected sales to improve in the second half of the year after his chain posted declines in sales at stores open at least a year – better known as same-store sales – in both the first and second quarters.
Tovar was quoted in the Bloomberg story as saying the order pullback was not "across the board" and was happening "category by category".
"In some cases, we're going to be taking less, in some we're going to be taking more," Tovar said in the story.

Message from the Galactic Federation of Light 6/14/12 'The Reconnection'
Message from the Galactic Federation of Light 6/12/12 'Choosing the Nest'
The television you are watching, even though you think this technology is new and state-of-the-art is actually very old and outdated. Even the couches you sit on, although the concept has remained the same, many things about it too have changed. These are just a sampling of everyday things that you take so for granted that will change radically in the days ahead for you. There is not too much about the future many of you will be entering that will remain the same for you. We, the Galactic Federation of Light, do not wish to rush any of you into these changes that in many areas will be great. We instead wish to gently escort you out of the current paradigm you are experiencing into a new reality which we feel you will agree is far more rewarding, enjoyable and educational than the current lives you are living.

Message from the Galactic Federation of Light 6/5/12 'Self Awareness & Advancement'
Self awareness and advancement: We would like to speak with you today on ways in which you can further your growth and your advancement while you are here in this physical plane. What you can be working on and focusing on is ways to better accrue knowledge, wisdom and experience throughout your day. How this can be done is through a coordinated effort to share with each other ideas, concepts and your experiences with each other. To do this, interaction is required, and this interaction can be facilitated through the means of the tools that are already at your disposal. The Internet is your source for a wealth of information, and it can be utilized in so many advantageous ways to further your growth and expand your consciousness as you do the work that you have come here to accomplish.
Vice control: It is your job to adequately contain the feelings that may arise in you that lead you to recreations that do not serve your higher good and your purpose for being here. We do see a number of you partaking in the use of mind altering substances, and we say to you at this time "Does this serve your higher good, and does this recreation serve our mission here in this world at this time?" What we ask of you, our Lightworkers, is that you refrain from such activities that promote negative responses within your bodies and which negatively affect your health, your vibrational level and your work here. What we would like to see are those of you who do partake in the use of recreational and even some prescribed drugs to cut back greatly or even abstain absolutely from this use that is doing much harm to your physical, emotional and mental vessels.

Message from the Galactic Federation of Light 6/1/12 'Overcoming Delays'
Ascension Earth 2012
Farewell from Ascension Earth!
I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you for visiting Ascension Earth over the past few years and making this site, what I consider, such a wonderful and very surprising success since my first post way back in January of 2011. I never dreamed this site would receive just shy of 10 million page views since then, and I want to thank you all again for stopping in from time to time for a visit. I hope you have found some of the content interesting as well as educational, and I want everyone to know that I only shared content I believed to be factual at the time of publication, though I may have reached differing understandingsconcerning some of the subject matter as time has past. All of the content that has been shared here at Ascension Earth was shared with the goal of provoking contemplation and conversation, leading to a raising of consciousness, an ascension of consciousness. That's what ascension is to me.
I have made a decision to move on from here, but I will always remember and always cherish the friendships I have made along this twisting journey since launching this site, what feels like a lifetime ago now. I wish all of you the greatest success in each and every endeavor you shall undertake, and I hope each of you are graced with peace, love & light every step of the way as you continue your never ending journey through this incredibly breathtaking and ever mysterious universe we share together.

Conversation with
A Man Who Went to Mars
by Morgan Kochel
…And there you have it! This was the end of our discussion about the Mars mission, but I have remained in touch with Chad. At this point, I hope to be able to convince him to do a video or TV interview, but of course, there will be more than a few obstacles to overcome, the main one being that he may currently be in some danger if he goes public.
Furthermore, there is always the barrier of peoples' understandable skepticism.
As I said in the beginning, I cannot verify this story for anyone, nor is my intent to convince anyone of its veracity. My goal is only to help him get his story heard, because if this story IS true, the people of this planet are being lied to on a grand scale, and perhaps this will eventually help the UFO Disclosure Movement. It's time for the lies to be uncovered, and time for the truth -- whatever that may be -- to be known once and for all.

Originally posted on Fox Sports Ohio | Last updated 4/7/13
Sunday was the kind of pitching matchup normally reserved for opening games of playoff series. The marquee reads Johnny Cueto vs. Stephen Strasburg and people take notice, tickets are bought and butts are filling the seats. The actual pitching didnt live up to the hype. The Reds and Nationals offenses, proving the old adages about how everyone puts their pants on one leg at a time and they all get paid to be true, got to the aces early. Neither Cueto nor Strasburg had their best stuff but Cueto battled through a little better than Strasburg and the Reds took the rubber match of the weekend series, 6-3, at Great American Ball Park. Thats what a No. 1 pitcher does. Before Sundays game, Reds manager Dusty Baker was talking about how a couple of years ago Cueto wouldnt have survived a game like the one this turned out to be. Hed let something small bother him and the whole outing would be shot. Sunday, Cueto put behind him a rough second inning and gave his team a chance to win, doing so against a guy who is one of the star attractions in all of Major League Baseball. Thats what a No. 1 pitcher does. Yeah, theres pride in this, said Cueto. He's a good pitcher, just like I am. It's a competitive thing. I wasn't feeling good today. I don't want to make excuses. I was watching (my pitch-count). I wanted to go at least finish five or six innings. I was able to work through that. I feel good about the team (winning). After allowing one run over seven innings in a no-decision against the Angels on Opening Day, Cueto got his first win of the season Sunday with six innings of three-run pitching in which he gave up seven hits and walked three on 108 pitches. It appeared he was heading for another no-decision after striking out Strasburg with a runner on second base to end the sixth inning. When Cueto came to the dugout, he asked his teammates for three runs. They delivered. After plating three runs in the first inning on three hits, including a two-run double by Jay Bruce, they got those three runs in the sixth off of Strasburg thanks to the speed of rookie Derrick Robinson and RBI singles by Brandon Phillips and Bruce. (Cueto) was saying it in Spanish but I understood what he was saying, said third baseman Todd Frazier. (Strasburg) is good, dont get me wrong, but were good, too. We like to put pride in ourselves and understand thats just another pitcher out there. Thats what we keep on doing. We can hit no matter who is out there, whether its Joe Schmo or Strasburg were hitters and its not going to deter us from doing what were supposed to do. Cueto pitched around a pair of singles in the first inning but the Nationals erased the Reds 3-0 lead on Kurt Suzukis three-run homer in the second inning. Cueto threw 30 pitches in the inning before finally getting Bryce Harper on a ground out to Phillips at second base and stranding a pair of runners. Over the next four innings, Cueto allowed just three base runners while striking out six before turning things over to the bullpen. Yeah, Johnny C., hes not easily rattled. He used to be, but not anymore, said Baker before the game. You hope a guy changes. I dont remember when. Its kind of a gradual thing. The more you get out of trouble. You find out how to get out of trouble. Thats the secret, how to get out of trouble. Or, how to get out of trouble with damage control, one (run) vs. blowing up and you give up four. Thats what hes done. Thats what a No. 1 does. The nine hits the Reds collected off of Strasburg equaled the most hes ever allowed. The 13 total base runners the Reds had against him were a career-high. He was at 92 pitches through five innings when manager Davey Johnson sent him to the plate to hit for himself with the potential go-ahead run at second base. Strasburg had gone seven shutout innings and allowed three hits in a 2-0 victory against Miami on Opening Day. Hes my horse, said Johnson. There were a couple of good pitchers out there. I dont think Cueto had his best stuff, either. He threw a lot of pitches in a short amount of time. Same with Stras. But its a good ballpark to hit in. Youve got to make good pitches. Its early in the year and its tough here when youre not real sharp. This was the first time the Reds had faced Strasburg since his rookie season of 2010. Hes grown as a pitcher in that time, overcoming torn elbow ligaments that cut that season short and being restricted by an innings count last season even though the Nationals were in the heat of the pennant chase. His development and that of Cueto was the reason for the hype surrounding a game played in the first week of the season. On this day, the Reds No. 1 got the better of Washingtons No. 1, even if the game didnt play out as envisioned. You want to be in that situation, said Strasburg. It was a big game today and I wanted to go out there and give it everything I had but it just didnt work out for me. I thought we did a good job of getting back in the ball game with Suzuki hitting the homer. I was just trying to keep us within scoring distance as long as I could. It just didnt seem to work out in the sixth inning.

I created a document with Latex and converted it into postscript file. The PS file shows all contents correctly. However, when I convert it to PDF using Acrobat 6.0 Pro (I also tried Distiller included with Acrobat package), all page headers are gone and the main text is shift to the border of the page instead. It is likely that Acrobat shift the content up and the header is fell out from the page. I have no problem with Acrobat 4.0 (have not tried with 5.0).
Anyone have solution or idea?

I guess I fell asleep watching TV with Erin. Lucas. Whatever the fuck she wants to be called. Either way, I end up back in my bed somehow, and I don't think it was by my own will. I feel like shit. That's the first thing I notice about consciousness. The methadone wore off, but the antidepressants haven't. The happy, warm, comfortable feeling of the opiates has given way to the cold, emptiness of depression again, and I just lie there with my eyes shut, though I can hear my mom sitting with me, sipping at a coffee.
Apparently my consciousness is more obvious to her than it should be.
"Damien? Are you awake, honey?" I ignore her, hoping she'll stop talking and go away. She reaches over, and I'm acutely aware of her fingers brushing back the hair that's fallen over my eyes. "I miss you, honey," she whispers. There's like this tugging sensation in my guts that makes me feel even more shitty and horrible than I already did. "But you have to get better," she continues, "you have to get better, don't you honey? I don't want you to feel like you have to... have to do all the stuff you do anymore." I hear her sniff a little, like she's trying to hold back some tears or something, or maybe like she's already crying and I just can't see that. "I just wish you didn't have to be here to get better. The house is so quiet without you downstairs in the garage playing music, or even shouting at me," I hear a little sob and her hand wraps around mine, her soft slender fingers gently gripping at mine.
I don't want to open my eyes. I don't want to have to face what I've done to my own mom. I squeeze her hand a little, wishing so fucking hard that she would stop crying. When she feels my grasp tighten, her own strengthens almost enough to hurt.
"I just want my baby back," she whimpers, and I feel the bed sink a little where she leans her head on it, using my blankets to muffle her crying. I want to say something to make it all better, but my head's numb and I can't seem to be able to spit out the words 'I'll be home soon, mom' or even 'I miss you too'. Nothing. The only words that seem to drip from my lips are "make it fucking stop."
He head lifts and my eyes flicker open as I plead with her again to make it stop, for her to just end it for me. Her face already glistens with the tears she's spent the last god knows how long crying, but there're more now, thicker and faster.
"Don't say that, honey. Please don't say that." But I'm crying too. My pillow catches whatever comes out of me, and my cries begin to drown out my mom's.
"Please, mom, make it stop." She shakes her head and I sit up, squeezing her hand until she winces, begging with her, "please, please, please," I just keep repeating it, and she just keeps shaking her head and saying 'no'.
A nurse appears from nowhere, but I'm only vaguely aware of her as I try to get out of bed, fumbling with the sheets that snare me, trying to get my mom to let go of me, stumbling around beside my bed, attempting to get away. My chest tightens and I feel like everything's closing in on me.
The ground rushes up to meet my knees and I land on the floor with a loud cracking sound. I barely feel it. My breaths are short and there are hands on my shoulders, worried voices surrounding me.
"Get off me!" I shout, I cry, I beg, but no one will fucking listen. No one ever fucking listens. No one is ever there to hear you when you need them to hear you the most.
And then I'm quiet. Someone jabbed a needle in me and made me shut up. Here comes zombie Damien, doing what he's told. Good zombie. Have another pill for being so good, zombie.
