Saturn in the 2nd House
14 comments:
Wow I can never get tired of your articles.ReplyDelete
You write them in a way everyone can relate :) and understand without those vague and subtexts concepts and terms, neverthreless beautiful.
I myself have this placement and I am the type to be reckless and irresposible I always find myself just sharing my money with people and at the end of the day, not having enough for the things I need to live to function normaly or to appreciate myself ahaha, all the while thinking people are valuing me for that ( coming to think about it, it's a wrong way to think of people you value and surround yourself with ).
I also have Aquarius on the cusp I really don't know how this plays out together ( Saturn in Pisces), but I still cried while reading this - not out of self pity but out of the bottom line meaning of this placement you wrote so well, in a way that reassures, supports and strengthens your readers with love and just sheer fact of knowing someome out there unnderstands you.
Thank you so much for this. 💜Replies
Well, apparently, people get very emotional or moved when they read my articles. I guess that's my Moon conjunct MC. My work just makes people cry! Haha, but I find that pretty moving, as well. :) So, thanks.Delete
And yes, I think the sign that the 2nd House Saturn is in can definitely determine whether the person is going to struggle with being too rigid with their money or too careless. So, with you having Saturn in Pisces, it makes sense that you spend recklessly and this is the thing you have to confront and deal with.
Thank you for this article, you nailed it :)ReplyDelete
I've experienced the Saturn(ine) fear also through this obsession that I need to learn more and more and I always felt that I never have enough knowledge which I equated with security on some level...
I used to be so obsessed with just learning more and more, watching tutorials, following classes and so on. And still felt that it's not enough, and so I always experienced that other people who didn't spend so much time as I did on learning and accumulating knowledge (or at least they didn't seem to) somehow always performed better, remembered stuff easier and so on.
And it just makes sense now to me, that this kind of knowledge-greed was indeed stemming from the same source, like the greed some people have for material stuff and then we realise that what we are trying to fill is a bottomless pit. And the solution is to build what you want on self worth, not build for the sole reason to achieve self worth.
Now I'm starting to grasp this, and change my attitude. My dream is to be able to transmute this fear or financial instability and fill my time with what I love (which are many things) and be able to earn a steady income from that. I'm starting to see this more and more clearly as the direction I'm going.
I also have three other planets in the 2nd, which definitely adds some colouring here, but I can relate to most of what you wrote.Replies
Glad you could relate. And it's very interesting that you feel greedy for information. It does make sense that the 2nd House Saturn's potential for greed can manifest in many ways, depending on the sign, even though it will all come back to self-worth, in the end. It's usually about money and possessions but it could also be anything that the Saturn sign values.Delete
If you don't mind me asking, what sign is your Saturn in and what other planets are in your 2nd House?
I think the core belief is something like "if I have enough knowledge then I will always have financial security".Delete
I have in my 2nd Saturn, Venus, Jupiter conjunct in Libra plus Pluto also in Libra a bit further away (I guess could call all this a stellium). And Virgo on the 2nd house cusp.
Also Pluto being very close to the 3rd house cusp I was thinking that the 3rd house influence might be felt on it. I'm not sure if this theory works, but I see it as a possibility.Delete
Yeah I think that feeling comes from having Saturn in Libra, an Air sign, and conjunct Jupiter, which can want more, more, more.Delete
Thank you so much for sharing your insight! This is really an amazing post. I have this position (in Leo) and have struggled with it's challenges all my life. Being cheap, constantly worrying about money (no matter how much I have), always feeling like there isn't enough money and if I just had more I would feel better, while no matter what happens that "feeling better" never actually comes.ReplyDelete
This piece has helped open my eyes to appreciate what I have in the moment. I have so much to be grateful for. I feel much better and have more clarity on how to move forward. I always looked at this as a bad placement, so thank you for highlighting the positive aspects of it.
Are you unable to gain fame if you don't have planets in any of the last 3 houses (10, 11, and 12)?ReplyDelete
So, I have my 2nd house Aries Sun (0" Op Pluto) intercepted by Pisces. Venus in Pisces opposed by Saturn in the 7th. Certainly can relate to much of what you highlighted regarding feeling good enough.. a definate harmonic between 1st and 2nd houses there. My income is so much easier to come by when I am sure of my self worth. Something in my past has really manifested in my life as a wounding in re to masculinity (Sat in Virgo in 7th Op Venus Pisces in the 1st). Anything related to emotion seems bigger than life. Off the rails on my cment, which could go in any number of your posts. Thank you !ReplyDelete
Hi Wayman, thank you for this piece. While I don't have Saturn in my 2nd, my south node is in Capricorn in the 2nd house and I resonate highly with what you wrote. Self worth tied to financial stability and security. "I don't love myself, my reality reflects that, but hey, I got money in the bank so I'm good." All this changed when money was no longer there and I realized what real abundance is--having what you need in the moment; not living in time, but loving the NOW and trusting. So far, I got no money of my own earning in the bank, but I got everything I need and I've never been happier.ReplyDelete
I'm coming up to my 2nd Saturn Return in Capricorn in 2nd house and I'm not looking forward to it! I also have the reckless pattern that you write about. Yes it all came from my father, now deceased. Working on moving away from the patterning before the 2nd Saturn Return hits in December. Getting organized with all debts owed, running credit reports and paying off debts as quickly as possible. Thank goodness I'm self employed in something I love and that makes me a lot of money!ReplyDelete
I have my saturn in aries retrogrades in 2nd house What do you mean? Mars in leo in 7th house trineReplyDelete
I have Saturn in Aries 2nd House making a lot of hard aspects to my personal planets. Even though I'm still studying, I am afraid that I might get poor once I've done studying. Thanks for this article.ReplyDelete

Horse And Hound Magazine
Horse & Hound
Horse & Hound is the oldest equestrian magazine in Britain. It is a weekly magazine with the first edition published in 1884. It is also known by the nickname 'Nag & Dog'. The magazine contains horse industry news, reports from equestrian events, veterinary advice about caring for horses and horses for sale. Fox hunting has always been an important topic for the magazine, as are the sports of eventing, dressage, show jumping, horse racing, showing, carriage driving and endurance riding. The magazine includes commentaries from top riders and trainers including event rider William Fox-Pitt, top eventing trainer Capt Mark Phillips, former top show jumper Graham Fletcher and dressage rider and trainer Pammy Hutton, among others. Its current and first female editor is Lucy Higginson, while photographer Trevor Meeks is currently one of the largest contributors.
Among the major annual equestrian events reported by Horse & Hound are Badminton Horse Trials, Burghley Horse Trials, The Horse of the Year Show and the London International Horse Show at Olympia.
The magazine is published by IPC Inspire (formerly Country & Leisure Media), who also own the sister magazines Eventing and HORSE. The latest copy reaches shops every Thursday, while press day is Monday. The magazine's headquarters are located in the Blue Fin Building (formerly Kings Reach Tower), in central London. The magazine has enjoyed a contined rise in popularity, and has the largest equestrian classified advertising around, both from companies and individuals selling horses.
Horse & Hound online:
Horse & Hound has a website at www.horseandhound.co.uk. It is updated daily with equestrian news and reports from horse events. The site includes a forum where horse enthusiasts can share their experiences with each other and ask for help with problems they are experiencing with their horses. There are currently more than 15,000 members, and gained worldwide attention within the equestrian community following much debate over the alleged horse abuse carried out by Amy Tryon in Kentucky in April 2007.
Claims to fame:
Horse & Hound is most commonly know by the general public after being mentioned in Notting Hill (film), which starred Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts. This is something the magazine has acknowledged several times.

The Ravens' divisional round game next Sunday at 1 p.m. is now set.
Arian Foster, Andre Johnson and the Texans will be coming to Baltimore.
Houston has secured a matchup with the Ravens by beating the Bengals 31-10. And despite losing their last three regular season games, the Texans look pretty sharp entering next weekend's battle in Charm City.
Foster ran for 153 yards and two touchdowns, Johnson appeared to put a hamstring injury behind him with a five-catch, 90-yard, one-touchdown performance and Houston's No. 2 ranked defense forced three Bengals turnovers.
Rookie quarterback T.J. Yates went a solid 11-of-20 for 159 yards and a touchdown, and managed the game well for Houston.
Of course, the Ravens and Texans met at M&T Bank Stadium earlier this season, and John Harbaugh's team came away with a 29-14 win. The Texans had starting quarterback Matt Schaub for that matchup (Schaub is now out for the year due to injury) but Houston played that game without Johnson, who was out with the hamstring injury.
Should be a fun matchup next weekend. Two of the league's best running backs and two of the top three defenses in the NFL will be on display.

Sharks On The Road
Self-shamed, tonight I drink from a glass labelled 'inadequacy'
And I'm trying to beautify your face, but discomfort runs its course.
These walls peel apart;
I'm skipping through minefields.
Perception's frames cut me, so I remain a presentable lie,
These stars nick my arms,
My heart skips a beat, as I realise I've lost all trustworthiness
I can't remember what it's like to feel Love.
The stained plains, spewing from between my fingers, are the remnants of a murder plot.
The letters, blurred, break my bones…
Facing me. Facing me.
The only way I'll elope with the sham of success, is if I feed my heart to the snakes,
So it all comes down to the knife, the glorious knife of mediocrity.
Living forever in a desanctified anthem. Discoloured, understated teeth, remain filthy from the lies. For I believe every word I say.
Every single foggy truth.
Remembrance, but save for unpreparedness, and the cuts don't seem deep anymore.
Emptiness stalks us tonight,
Silence cuts like a bloody axe, and still, there are trenches in my skin


text: Carole : (40) Organiser and chief adventurer. Compulsive shopper. Stephen : (43) Head beer drinker, and food taster. Trainee shopper. As this was our third year running at Orlando, the plan was to take it all at a slower pace, and enjoy the atmosphere. No queuing and no commando tactics. We have annual passes for Disney and length of stay passes for Universal. Were giving Seaworld a Miss this year rather than try to cram too much in. Day 7 Friday 19/10/01 Todays planned itinerary Animal Kingdom, PS at Bomas Weather Clouds and sunshine. Some rain. Didnt get up till 9am this morning. I had some fruit and Stephen ate some cookies. We had a bit of a tidy round as the shopping bags were starting to pile up. I finally got round to writing some postcards, while Stephen went to the hotel store to get stamps. I let him stick the stamps on, as they tasted foul . We left the hotel at noon, and headed for Animal Kingdom. As we got on the parking lot tram, it started to rain a bit, but it stopped before we got off the tram. We had to laugh at our tram attendant, who welcomed everyone to the crazy tram ride. We decided to spend some time looking in the nooks and crannies of the park, rather than rush from one place to another. We must have spent an hour enjoying the Oasis, and the Discovery Island Trails. It was really relaxing just taking the time to watch the animals and the birds, and look at the plants. We even saw Skippy! At 1.30 we were getting peckish, so we went to Tusker house. Stephen fetched a chicken sandwich for himself, and a veggie wrap for me, while I got a table and made a few notes for my trip report. The wrap was delicious, and Stephen enjoyed his sandwich. With a large coke and a bottle of water it came to $20. We spent the afternoon, just wandering round, really. We popped over to Conservation Station and watched a talk on poison arrow frogs. Very interesting. As wed got off the Wildlife express, the heavens opened so it was nice to get under cover. By the time we were ready to carry on, the rain had stopped. We had a 6pm PS for Bomas at Animal Kingdom Lodge, so we left AK in plenty of time, so we could have a look round the resort. We were asked for photo id before being let into the car park for AKL. We had a good look round and decided that although its very nice there, we were glad wed chosen the Hard Rock instead. (It was a toss up between the two when we booked.) It was nearly time for our meal, but there was a problem. Neither of us was the slightest bit hungry. We went and looked at the restaurant and it looked great, but we still werent hungry. In the end, we decided that it would be a waste of money to eat there for the sake of it so we went for a drive to find the new Walmarts, and got a few supplies in. Now you might know, by the time we got back to the Hard Rock, we were getting peckish. Bloomin typical We decided to amble over to City Walk and see what took our fancy when we got there. We had a look round and decided on the Hard Rock café. Wed both fancied eating there for the atmosphere. Well, I had one of these All Access cards to get first available, preferred seating. There was a huge queue, but we walked up to the podium, waved our card, and were ushered straight in to wait in a very short line inside. After just a few minutes we were taken through to a small room at the back with large screens. We loved the music playing, the videos on the screens, and all the memorabilia to look at. Apparently, Orlando has more memorabilia than any other HRC. Ok, the food: I had a Hard Rock House Salad Crisp greens, shredded cheese, onions, fresh tomatoes, black olives, shredded carrots, chopped bacon, chopped eggs and homemade croutons. homemade croutons. Absolutely delicious. Really, really scrummy! Stephen had the Honey Bourbon New York Strip steak A Choice center-cut 12 oz New York strip steak grilled to your liking and brushed with a spicy-sweet honey bourbon BBQ glaze. Served with fresh seasonal vegetables and your choice of potato. Stephens verdict - absolutely lovely. And a Homestyle Chocolate Cake Four moist layers of rich cake stacked on top of each other separated and surrounded by creamy chocolate icing. Topped with fresh whipped cream. I was too full to even contemplate a dessert, but when Stephen ordered the chocolate cake, our server smiled knowingly and said shed bring an extra fork. When she put the cake on the table, our jaws dropped. It was the size of a small house! It was at least six inches high (I kid you not) and very, very wide. Well, I thought Id better help him out so we both dug in and made a considerable dent in it, but we could have done with a few more people pitching in, really. It was, however, very yummy. Good and chocolatey! With a couple of Samuel Adams beers, some coke for me, and a coffee, it came to $75. Well worth it. Well, we were stuffed after that. Wed looked at the nice book they put on the table for you to read. It had details of a limited edition pin they had for sale, with proceeds going to breast cancer research. The pin looked nice so we went to the shop to have a look. We bought a t-shirt each, and I had some pins. The nice one from the book, one with a pink Cadillac, the Halloween pin and one with a waitress on a whale (sounds strange, looks good). Oh, and a guitar one. I do like the guitar ones. Think I may collect those. Walked back to work off some of that cake and had a relatively early night. Pins bought today 5 Tomorrow Food and Wine festival & Illuminations cruise.

Concept PR Acquires I:CONNECT Enterprise Pvt. Ltd
CONCEPT PR, one of India's premier, full service Public Relations company with a strong presence across India, acquired I:Connect Enterprise, a strategic PR consultancy, in an all stock deal.
Over the years, Concept PR has come to be recognized as a formidable force in corporate and financial communication. The team has been acknowledged for its effective media relations and most critically, as India's leading financial communications agency. Earlier, in 2008 Concept PR forayed into sports and lifestyle communication with the acquisition and merger of Zzebra PR, a leading name in the field. With the current acquisition and merger, they add greater strength in brand, lifestyle, events and sports communication.
I:Connect, established by Lokesh Tiwary in 2009 was designed to position Public Relations as a strategic communication partner to brands in order to address critical marketing challenges. Over the past four years, the agency has been associated with several big ticket names across industries including – HTC, ZTE, Nuance, GE, SBI Cards, First Solar, Swarovski, Oriflame, BIBA, Gemfields, Rose to name a few.
Welcoming them onboard, Ashish Jalan, Director Concept PR says, " The merger with I:Connect is bound to add an extra zest to our team and service capabilities across all PR verticals. With Lokesh, we hope to leverage his tremendous understanding of consumers and communication platforms that comes with his years of experience as an advertising and PR professional. On the other hand Shantanu, an economics major and a hardened strategist, is best placed to boost our Strategy Planning abilities. In the recent past our lifestyle and sports related PR services have gained a lot of ground, Shalini's vast experience in these areas will be a certain advantage to the team."
Speaking on behalf of the I:Connect team, Lokesh Tiwary adds, "Concept is a name to reckon with in domains such as Financial & Corporate PR, Crisis Communication and Media Insights. While I:Connect on the other hand has in the last four years developed a strategic advantage in the domain of Brand (PR) Communication. What makes this merger perfect is that it brings together two complementary forces. The scale, business intelligence and client depth of Concept and the domain expertise of I:Connect. The collective strengths would enable Concept to enlarge its appeal. We see tremendous opportunity to benefit from this merger."
The merger announced at the dawn of FY 2015, comes shortly after Prime Database rated Concept as the No. 1 Financial Communication Agency for FY 2014.

BeschreibungMigration Decision Making: Multidisciplinary Approaches to Microlevel Studies and Developing Countries discusses several topics, such as systematics review and evaluation of microlevel frameworks and models of the migration decision; applicability of microlevel migration models and framework; and general policy implications of microlevel models and frame works.
The opening chapter introduces the main themes and provides an overview of the book. Chapter 2 discusses the motivation for migration, an assessment and a value-expectancy research model, and the next chapter tackles macrolevel influences on the migration decision process. Chapter 4 covers microeconomic approaches to studying migration decisions, while Chapter 5 discusses information, uncertainty, and the microeconomic model of migration decision making. The sixth chapter talks about moving toward a development paradigm of migration, with particular reference to third world countries, and the seventh chapter discusses village-community ties, village norms, and ethnic and social networks. Chapter 8 covers family structure and family strategy in migration decision making, and then Chapter 9 discusses the migration decision-making process, emphasizing some social-psychological considerations. Chapter 10 tackles policy intervention considerations, focusing on the relationship of theoretical models to planning, and Chapter 11 discusses the utility of microlevel approach to migration, using a Philippine perspective. The last chapter is a review of micro migration research in the third world context.
This book will be of great interest to sociologists, economists, law makers, and government agencies who are concerned with the implications of migrations.

They're just those kind of people.
The most recent challenge they're facing is a second kidney transplant for Brad. His first surgery was at age 6, when doctors addressed a kinked ureter (tube between kidney and bladder) and discovered his kidneys were malformed. It was also learned then that the ureter being twisted for so long caused damage to his left kidney.
"In 1982, I went for my football physical, and my blood pressure was high," Brad said. "A blood clot had shut off the blood flow to my right kidney. They tried to fix that, but it didn't work, and I lost function in my right kidney then."
Doctors learned that Brad's left kidney was functioning at two-thirds capacity, which is OK, and told him to go on and live his life as long as it operated, because eventually he would lose it. In 1993, his kidney function fell off and he was placed on dialysis, three times a week, four hours a session, for a period of two years.
"I had a transplant in 1995, and they added a functional kidney from a cadaver donor, which was put in my left front side," he said. "They left the original two in there, but they're only about the size of a raisin now. The new kidney will go in the right front side."
Brad has worked at

"All those years he was driving a truck, riding with the window down, and sun damage," said Leecia.
"They took the entire outside part of my ear off, then worked on the ear canal, and put it back on," Brad said.
Leecia has battled her own share of troubles, as well. On a trip to

Leecia had a port for chemotherapy put in on
"We like to live on the wild side, adventurous," Leecia joked in 2009. "Don't want to get too comfortable. We like to keep a little drama going."
Through all this, they also took time to care for five canines and raise their niece and nephew, Jordan and Joshua.
Brad's blood and tissue are on file at Baylor, so when his name comes up on the transplant list the organization will match it with the available organ to see if it's a match before ever calling the Arnetts.
"We got our hopes up two different times with the first one," he said. "We drove to
"If my kidney function will stay where it is right now, I'll be fine until I get the transplant. I don't feel bad. My creatinine is not great, but it's okay."
The first time he received a transplant, they had worked to put away money and save up for the time he would be off work, and the medical bills. This time, things are different. Leecia has recently had to be put on disability, since her health does not allow her to work. The company Brad works for is small, and switched their insurance to Obamacare.

Gearworks FC are a team in the Fantendo Football League. They mainly consist of characters from The Factor series and are one of the most defensive teams in the FFL Season 3 League. Their captain is their left midfielder and Raven Industries head, Malcolm Leychester and their manager is Waddel Dii (t∣b∣c).
First established in 2011, Gearworks FC mainly consisted originally of Drones, Leychester and several other mercenaries. After a while other players such as Antares and two Slimebots joined the team, thus making it a full accepted team for the league.
During the beginning of the league, Gearworks were off to a slow start, during the first 4 fixtures they had either tied or lost, however they managed to pull through and managed to gain a 6-win streak. The next several matches were varied, although one of the highlights was the 2 victories over Royal Atlantica, some matches pulled them back.
Coming Soon
Gearworks FC fans have generally branded a rivalry against Team Flame-Scotland. The reason being the fact that both Gearworks and Flame-Scotland had been fighting for the title, and should Gearworks have drawn or defeated Flame-Scotland, they would have earned the title. Which they are constantly taunted about during season 4.

Hey Kaito! I think this is gonna turn out to be a great fic, I can't wait for more! Update soon xx
| Asarikou-chan chapter 1 . 6/16/2012
Hi! Long time no seen...
Oh, well. I like cold Kouichi a lot so make him as douche as you want...As long as he snaps out of it later(it doesn't matter when this later is)I feel sorry for him. It is not easy to move on besides it depends on the relationship someone has with a lost beloved one to determine his emotions and reactions even after five months. Kouji had died and he couldn't do anything back them to help him. Partially of regret and self-blaming, he tends to push people away.
I wonder if all the characters (OCs) you brought are going to be importance in this story. The summary mentioned another new warrior which I assume to be Katsuharu so the rest are just helping characters(plot devices)
| Chihaya-chan chapter 1 . 6/15/2012
The girls remind me of my OC Kira and her friends. They think Koichi is a jerk or an idiot. Well in my story Koichi is way too argumentive so he always shouts back. I am still working on my story Digimon Frontier 02 Digimon Quest. I actually like this story so much!
| reminiscent-afterthought chapter 1 . 6/15/2012
I feel kind of bad for saying this, but you've got way too much going on in this chapter. Emphasis on the "way". Scenes are changing super fast - without dividers I may add - and ultimately, you've thrown us (or me) into something that, even after reading ACD, doesn't really connect. I'd say five months is a little pushing it; takes out a little of the dramatic intensity and he would most likely would have gotten past the five stages by now. It sounds like he's still up to 2 or 3. I'm also not sure it's such a good idea to throw so many new characters in at once; it really doesn't help with the connectivity and all the scenes get somewhat...lost. In my opinion, you should split this into at least two chapters and flesh out some of the interactions more. Like having that girl/Koichi scene from Koichi's perspective, telling us a little more about what happened before (unless you're hiding something) etc. Truth be told, you've got a lot here, but nothing that really wants me to continue reading.
Koichi being cold is fine by me. Makes things interesting, but I don't think he's so inclined to mince words so that long sentence amidst all the "nos" was a little unexpected. Why is he at the same school as Takuya anyway?
And that's my not-so-triumphant return to digimon fanfiction...
| SoulNinjas chapter 1 . 6/15/2012
the one talking to katsuharu is kouji isn't it? man kouichi is such a jerk and that is putting it mildly. kouji needs to come back and knock him out of that depression. update soon though cause i'm sure everyone's reactions are going to be interesting.

That feeling, as Dorsey described in addressing the media late Thursday night, was more than enough that he and his head coach, Andy Reid, both felt Ford earned his slot atop their draft board when the Chiefs were on the clock in the first round.
"We sat him in the sixty-player interview at the combine, he left and all of us were going, 'This is a good kid.' You guys are going to love him tomorrow when he gets here. One of our scouts got a text from the head coach at Auburn saying, 'You just got a champion.' You guys will see that tomorrow when he comes in for the interview," Dorsey said of his new draft pick.
Ford is a rare athlete who works hard and has the confidence to be an elite level pass rusher in the NFL. His skill set is sorely needed in Kansas City. And even though the Chiefs had other needs, Ford was the guy both the General Manager and his head coach felt was someone the team could not afford to pass up.
"Tremendous person and extremely high motor on the football field. Very intelligent player," Head Coach Andy Reid stated after the selection of Ford.
"He played his best football at the end of the year, the championship game was tremendous. He had a great Senior Bowl, he was probably healthiest during that period atthe Senior Bowl. He's somebody that we add into Bob (Sutton's) defense and really becomes a guy that can mix in with Tamba (Hali) and Justin (Houston) and all of the good rushers, (Dontari) Poe, that we have. You need that in the AFC West, along with the divisions we're playing this year."
But the key in selecting Ford, which surprised some Chiefs fans, was Reid's philosophy of adding football players that bring heart and passion to the game. As we mentioned after the pick was made last night, the Chiefs are void of defensive playmakers. Ford appears to have that star quality in him and he's the type of player that isn't phased by the big games he'll encounter in the NFL.
"He's a relentless football player. He's going to give you an honest snap every snap, tremendous motor, great attitude. All those intangibles are really positive. I've told you this before, your offensive line, your defensive line, they make everyone around them much better, so if they're playing at a high level, it works out pretty good for you. Sometimes they're not the flashiest picks in the world, but there is no time that's more obvious than when you're in the playoffs," Reid stated.
For Ford, he wasn't shocked to be taken in the first round. He was laying that claim for months that's where he expected to be selected. Many consider him one of the top three or four pass rushers in this draft. Despite some injuries, Ford had 10.5 sacks for the Auburn Tigers last season.
Still talent aside, the Chiefs understood that Ford is taking nothing for granted on his journey from college standout to NFL rookie. Even though he has a bit of a swagger and is extremely confident with his words, he believes he can back it up at the NFL level. But that doesn't mean the moment he learned he was indeed a first round draft pick was something he's ever going to forget.
"I'm at a loss for words because it's such a blessing to have your dreams come true," Ford said. "I'm very personable, that' why I talk a lot. I'm big on communication. I feel like that's a very good thing for me. I'm not quiet, I do state my mind. I was definitely speechless."
For the Chiefs, that's precisely the kind of player you want from the first round draft pick. It was imperative for Kansas City to select a first round talent that can get on the field opening day.
From all accounts Ford has the motor and the chops to make sure he starts a new trend of first round draft picks that make an impact in Kansas City.
Still not convinced?
"I'm concerned with things that I can control, coming into this organization and being a great teammate. I really hope I don't sound generic or sound like I'm just trying to say the right things, I really mean that. I'm going to humble myself, learn from these vets and man, we're going to do some things," Ford said.
Now that the dust has settled Dee Ford appears to have some serious swagger.

The Best Sleeping Pad For Women Review
What is the best women's sleeping pad on the market? We spent a spring and summer season testing out these top rated women's specific pads in a variety of conditions from the snowy slopes of Denali National Park to the prickly desert landscapes of the Grand Canyon. We did a lot of sleeping, reading, and generally lounging on these pads in order to properly try them out, and we solicited several different ladies' opinions. We discovered which pad is the most comfortable, which is the most compact, and which is the most durable - and there were some surprises. To find out more about what we thought about these air and foam dream vehicles, read on.

Analysis and Test Results
What's the Difference Between a Men's and Women's Pad?
Women have a different anatomy than men (surprise!) and very often have different sleeping requirements than their male counterparts. It has been scientifically proven that typically, women sleep colder than men. Manufacturers of women's pads have realized this, and have created models that are generally warmer with more insulation added in areas that count, like the torso and foot areas. Women are typically shorter and have narrower shoulders than men, and so pads designed for them have been trimmed down to their size — thus reducing the potential bulk and weight from a larger men's specific mattress.
Not Just for Women Anymore
Men are starting to clue into the fact that women's sleeping pads provide a better bang for the buck in terms of weight-to-warmth ratios. All of the women's pads we tested have higher R values than the equivalent men's versions. They are usually the same weight as the men's version, but come in a smaller, more compact packed size. We have spoken to some men who prefer to buy the women's version — especially if they're under 5'6 — because of the higher weight-to-warmth ratio. Some tall men are buying women's pads too, and just putting their backpacks or other gear under their feet for insulation. This is an awesome example of products that have been designed specifically with women in mind, and in turn have become better products.

The women's pads we tested are available in two types of construction. Most of the pads we tested were a self-inflating foam and air construction, where open cell foam is glued to the top and bottom of the pad's interior. These pads are comfortable and hold their shape well, but are not the most compact.
The one exception is the Therm-a-Rest NeoAir XLite - Women's that uses a structurally insulated air core construction, which is a lot less bulky than foam. It is designed with internal baffles that provide structure and warmth, and then compresses very small.
To learn more about other types of construction used in unisex versions, check out our Best Sleeping Pad Review.
Criteria for Evaluation
The women's pads we tested have R Values ranging from 2.8 (Therm-a-Rest Prolite - Women's) to 4.9 (Therm-a-Rest Trail Lite - Women's) and are designed for use primarily in three season conditions — but some can be used for winter temperatures as well. R value ratings are based on how well a material insulates. R values were originally used by the construction industry to rate home insulation. In the realm of sleeping pads, the R value scale measures how well a pad insulates the sleeper from the cold ground temperature and conserves the convective heat from the sleeper's body warmth. A pad's thickness and the amount of air circulation within affects its R value. Generally, the thicker the pad, the warmer, and the less air circulation the better.
We evaluated the comfort of these pads on how well we slept on various ground surfaces, including rock solid granite slabs and lumpy sand. In our testers' opinions, the most comfortable pads we tested were the REI AirRail 1.5 Self-Inflating - Women's and the Therm-A-Rest Trail Lite. Not surprisingly, these were two of the thickest mattresses we tested, making them cushy to lay on, especially for side sleepers. We also liked the generous shapes of these mattresses, which were both slightly wider than the others we tested. We especially loved the REI AirRail's "air rails", tubes on each side that made the mattress wider and gave it a cradling effect for back-sleepers. We think the Therm-A-Rest NeoAir XLite is also quite comfortable with its 2.5 inch thickness, but it takes a bit of getting used to because it is bouncier and crinklier than the other pads in this review.
All of the pads we tested in this review are inflatable, and therefore inherently less durable than closed-cell foam pads that are reviewed in the unisex pad review. We evaluated durability mostly on the toughness of the materials of these pads, which ranged from 30-75 Denier strength fabrics. The Trail Lite Women's features the strongest materials and the NeoAir XLite Women's has the most fragile. That being said, we think the NeoAir XLite is surprisingly durable, and some of our testers have owned this model for many years without incident. Luckily all of the pads we tested are relatively quick and easy to patch.
Another durability factor our testers noticed was the color of the top materials. The lighter colored mattresses like the REI AirRail and the ProLite Women's showed dirt much easier than darker colored mattresses like the ProLite Plus. For the NeoAir this is a non-issue because of its rubbery, cleanable surface. One tester hiked the entire Pacific Crest Trail with the women's ProLite, and the bright orange turned an ugly brown by the end. It is also interesting to note that during her 2000+ mile hike she never once had to patch her Prolite pad.
For all backpackers, the weight of their gear should be carefully considered. As part of your sleeping system, your pad should be considered part of the big 3 items (shelter, backpack, and sleeping system) that affects pack weight. Choosing these three items carefully can greatly reduce your pack weight, and therefore boost your hiking enjoyment. Foam weighs more than air, so all the self-inflating foam mattresses can not compete with air core constructed mattresses. Knowing that, the lightest women's pad that we tested by far was the Therm-A-Rest NeoAir XLite Women's, weighing in at a slim 12 oz. The heaviest was the Trail Lite at 27 oz, almost a full pound heavier than the NeoAir.
Packed Size
This is another important factor to consider when trying to slim down your pack size. Again, foam insulated mattresses cannot compete with air core construction. The NeoAir XLite Women's has the smallest packed size at 9x4 inches, followed by the Therm-A-Rest ProLite - Women's at 10x4.25 inches. The bulky Trail Lite has the largest packed size at 10.5x6 inches. Many people have difficulty rolling their inflatable pads up to the original size it came in, and are not able to fit it back into its stuff sack. For more information on how to do this properly, check out our Buying Advice article.
Inflation Method & Accessories
Although many of our reviewed sleeping pads claim to be "self-inflating" some people are disappointed by the amount the pads inflate on their own. Just so we're all on the same page, even the manufacturers don't claim that their pads are able to completely inflate on their own. Instead, they claim they will inflate most of the way, and if people prefer a firmer mattress they can blow a few more breaths in before closing the valve.
For those of us who have chosen to go with a non-self-inflating mattress, like a NeoAir, we may get a bit light headed before our mattresses are full. There are several accessories to aid us with filling our mattresses like the NeoAir Torrent Pump, an electrical pump that will annoy your neighbors while you fill up your mattress; and the NeoAir Pump Sack that allows you to fill up your mattress manually without fainting, and also acts as a stuff sack.
Because women sleep colder than men and have a different anatomy and size as well, manufacturer's have created pads for sleeping specific to these qualities. This review is here to help you find the pad that is the most comfortable, compact, and/or durable, depending on your specific needs. Check out our Buying Advice article to find out why women's models are a great option for both men and women, and how to choose the one that is right for your needs.

We started going to Myrtle Beach in 1987 to enjoy the 120 golf courses and the sand and the beach for our kids. In 1993 we purchased our first 2nd home in Little River and still go there 6 or 8 times a year. We subsequently have purchased 3 investment properties, one of which is an 8 bedroom in Cherry Grove for the specific purpose of housing all of my golfing buddies in one place rather than spread them out in individual 2 bedroom units. We got spoiled and wanted to take advantage of the great courses down south on Pawley's Island and decided to buy a 4 bedroom condo on 7th Street South and Ocean Highway. My wife and her girlfriends have always enjoyed the beach and the beach music at Ocean Annies. The trips aren't as frequent to Ocean Annies anymore since our first granddaughter is now on the scene and wants to play in the ocean and the sand. The picture is of my wife and me celebrating my 60th birthday.

Benign Smiles
Benign Smiles
"He's a benign alien, you know," Tosh said, placing a reassuring hand on Ianto's arm.
"Tumors are benign, too, but that doesn't mean anyone wants to find out they're hanging around," Ianto said, sending a sharp look at the Doctor's back. He was standing much too close to Jack, in his opinion.
Not in Jack's, obviously. Despite the fact that the alien had called him wrong; there were many things that were wrong with Jack, but nothing was wrong with Jack himself. Especially nothing wrong enough to leave him behind with only the dead for company.
It was Jack's right as the wronged party to forgive the Doctor; it was Ianto's prerogative as Jack's lover to never forget the hurt the alien had caused Jack.
Just as a melancholy haze began to settle around Ianto's angry thoughts, Jack's gaze met his, and he smiled. A small, happy smile, not huge and extravagant like the ones he usually gave to all and sundry, but a real one that he only ever let Ianto see. One that always sent warm, fuzzy feelings fizzing around Ianto's heart with happiness.
Ianto decided maybe it was alright for the Doctor to visit, if it made Jack smile like that.
At him.

'Tiger Effect' Didn't Dampen Golf's Popularity With Viewers
Geege Schuman stashed this in Tiger W
Stashed in: Advertising, Golf, America!, Tiger Woods
Golf's most-watched TV events are the four major championships -- the Masters, U.S. Open, British Open and PGA Championship -- and the biennial Ryder Cup. The four majors averaged 6.4 million viewers (watching live or the same day) in 2012, while all PGA Tour events (including majors) averaged 3.3 million viewers, according to Nielsen spokesman Sal Tuzzeo.
Those numbers are chump change compared to sporting events such as the Super Bowl.
But what makes golf so valuable to advertisers and ad agencies are its affluent, highly-educated viewers. And, of course, the decision-makers of corporate America -- from CEOs to CMOs -- watch and play golf.
It's not the size of the audience, it's the affluence. And the influence.

LocateADoc Q&A
What is your favorite quote or saying?
We all have hardships in life, some moreso than others. This saying is one that I say to myself silently in those times. It is very calming and puts things in perspective: "This too shall pass..."
What makes your specialties the right fields of medicine for you?
I come from a fine arts background with a concentration in oil painting, and plastic surgery gives me the ability to think outside the box and be creative in my approach to surgery. I was a general surgeon before becoming a plastic surgeon but general surgery didn't appeal to my artistic sensibilties. Aesthetic surgery truly is a fusion of science and art. I feel that my eye is trained to see things other surgeons do not, and this is a great tool that only serves to benefit my patients.
Finish this sentence: If I weren't a doctor I would be___.
an astronaut. I have always had a fascination with space and space exploration.
Can you tell us in your own words what you consider a perfect outcome of a surgical procedure?
A perfect outcome is based on the patient's satisfaction level and the surgeon's satisfaction level. When you know you have made a real impact on your patient's quality of life with the surgery there is nothing more satisfying.
What is your favorite procedure to perform and why?
Although I don't have a favorite, one of my favorite body procedures is tummy tuck because the results are so dramatic and the patients are so grateful. One of my favorite facial surgeries is neck lifts because it also makes such a difference in how patients feel and look at themselves.
What Sets Us Apart
Dr. Babak Dadvand is a fellowship trained aesthetic surgeon with a fine arts background. Because of this, Dr. Dadvand understands the art and science of aesthetic surgery. He listens to his patients and forms a surgical plan that is best suited for them.

Lie down on the bed and have some "fun" with SarahMature
"Now that we're both cleaned up, what say we pick up where we left off?" Sarah proposes.
Although you are still not entirely certain about being diapered, you have come to enjoy the sight of Sarah in one. She is standing in front of you in just her diaper and nothing else. The sight of that combined with her bare breasts makes her look invigorating; you can feel your cock press up against the front of your diaper.
You grin deviously and tell her "Okay. Let's have a little 'excitement.'"
She smirks and jumps onto the bed. Then she reaches out, wraps her arms around your waist, and pulls you down next to her. As you lay by her side, you and she gaze lustily into each others' eyes. You wrap your arms around her and begin kissing her. First you are just using your lips, but before long, she opens her mouth and invites her tongue into the picture. You quickly do the same.
For a while, you and she are simply embracing each other and French-kissing. Then she moves her hand to the front of your diaper and begins rubbing you gently. In response, your breathing starts to quicken and you moan in pleasure. However, you are still coherent enough to return the favor.
You lower your hand to Sarah's diapered crotch and rub her through her padding. She purrs like a kitten and her breath becomes more labored. She is getting just as much enjoyment out of this as you are, if not more.
You and she stroke each other through your diapers for over a minute. Overtime, you become more and more excited, and you are hastily reaching the pinnacle of your arousal. It is only a matter of time before both of you use your diapers again, but not to urinate or defecate. Instead, you'll be using them for a much more practical purpose.

This is the next blog in the continuing series of interviews with top-echelon and renowned professionals. In this blog, I interview distinguished executive, scientist, engineer, Dr. Kishore Swaminathan, Chief Scientist Accenture. Kishore shares his insights into global overall trends, business needs and strategy, the future of technology, skill needs, and career lessons. Kishore ideas will stimulate much thought and are provocative. I encourage you to have a look.
Stephen Ibaraki
As the chief scientist of Accenture, Dr. Kishore Swaminathan defines Accenture's Technology Vision and helps set Accenture's technology and research agenda. He also directly heads Accenture's Systems Integration research located in Chicago (US), Silicon Valley, California (US), Sophia Antipolis (France) and Bangalore (India).
Born and raised in the 2,500 year old city of Madurai in southern India, Swaminathan took an interest in science while studying, ironically, history. "I realized that the ideas of Archimedes and Pythagoras endure but not the empire of Alexander," he recalls. "It made me want to focus on science to understand the world in a deep way, taking nothing for granted, but questioning everything."
At 18, he enrolled in the elite Indian Institute of Technology at Madras, where he received his Bachelor of Technology in aeronautical engineering, and then went on to earn his master's and Ph.D. in computer science at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. "Even my doctoral dissertation was concerned with science," Swaminathan says. "I was interested in artificial intelligence and natural language processing, so I focused on how computers might be able to process scientific literature and discover scientific trends."
Although he originally intended to become a teacher, he accepted a position at Accenture's Center for Strategic Technology Research in Chicago in 1990 since "it was a new lab that was just getting started and I thought I'd be able to help define and shape the lab." Over the years, Swaminathan has worked on more than a dozen research projects and has as many patents to his credit. His interests include document understanding, corporate knowledge management, computer-supported collaboration, sensor networks, data and process analytics, system architecture and software development. One of his projects in corporate knowledge management received the Computerworld Smithsonian award for the best application of IT in 2000.
In 2001, Swaminathan took a one-year leave of absence from Accenture to launch Artsonia, an online children's art museum that now displays over a million pieces of art from children in more than 100 countries. "I always felt that schools focus so much on teaching, but not enough on fostering creative self-expression," he says. "For me, Artsonia was a labour of love – to give children a global audience for something they did on their own."
Creativity and innovation will be recurring themes in Swaminathan's role as the chief scientist of Accenture. "For any company, innovation comes from a systemic mind-set that embraces and nurtures creative ideas," he notes. "Creativity does not necessarily result in innovation, but there's no innovation without creativity."
As a result, Swaminathan wants to identify creative people from all levels of the company and set up mentorship programs to nurture and develop their ideas, in addition to several other ambitious plans. "Last year, I took on the responsibility to develop – from scratch – a brand-new research capability in software engineering and systems integration in Accenture. In less than three years, I want to create a research group of big thinkers who are not afraid of redefining the field. We are going to completely rethink how large-scale business systems will be architected, designed, built, managed, operated and so on. This is strategically important for Accenture, our clients and society at large given the importance of computers in our daily lives."

Interview Time Index (MM:SS) and Topic
Please share your experiences with Artsonia and why this initiative is so important to the world? (Artsonia is an online children's art museum that now displays over a million pieces of art from children in more than 100 countries)
"….Artsonia was a labour of love. At one point I thought, what is something that could unleash the creativity of children around the world….In the past it was not possible or cost effective to build a children's art museum, whereas on the web you can do that and in fact give kids all over the world an opportunity to showcase their talent. That is how the whole thing started….It is not an elitist site, it is for everybody…."
Can you profile your key milestones prior to joining Accenture and share some important lessons that you wish to pass on?
"….Finishing my undergraduate degree was a much greater milestone than finishing my doctoral dissertation….Lessons: While science involves the scientific method, scientists are often somewhat emotional and irrational and that's a good thing….If you really want to be creative and do something new you have to have some intellectual arrogance….Reality has many layers….As a scientist you can get credit or you can have influence but don't ask for both…."
What were the key disruptive forces driving change in your life and how can we learn from your experiences?
"….My teenager is a senior in high school and will be going to college….Working with people in different time zones is very disruptive both for your life and their life….Another disruptive force is related to aging…."
What are your top lessons for effective leadership?
"….All round communication….Follow through….Never put anybody on a critical path that you have not worked with in the past….Stay away from the day-to-day fires…."
What are your current roles with Accenture and how will you shape your vision in the next 5 years?
"….As the Chief Scientist my role is to define the company's technology vision for the future….I am also Accenture's Director for Technology Research….My vision for my own future is I want to get seriously into writing….In the role of Director of research, my vision is to make Accenture technology labs among the top labs in the world…."
You indicated that you wanted to do some writing – are there some particular themes that you want to write about?
"….There is one phenomenon which doesn't get much attention and that is the growth of mega-cities….The specific area that fascinates me is how can technology help so people don't need to migrate to the cities….And how can technology help the cities to be a lot healthier and safer than they currently are. This is the area in which I want to do some serious research and write about…."
In each of your current roles, what are the biggest challenges, and their solutions?
"….My biggest challenge in my role as director of research is making people understand (including my junior researchers), that research and creativity are not linear processes and that progress does not occur based on the amount of time you have put into it…."
What are your major initiatives and tactics to develop talent and creativity amongst computing and business professionals?
"….In a globalized world and with technology which enables you to work from anywhere, in the future both computing and business professionals will need to have three very distinct qualities: the ability to work without supervision, to manage ambiguity and having the 'ping' quotient (having a network that you can tap into very casually without a lot of structure)…."
Kishore shares his thoughts on completely rethinking how large-scale business systems will be architected, designed, built, managed, and operated.
"….We are at the cusp of what I would say is the fourth generation of system development…."
Can you profile the major global trends that we need to anticipate and leverage for success?
"….Resource contention….Climate change….Growth of mega-cities….Society's continued confusion between progress and growth…."
What are the major challenges for business today and how can they be solved?
"….Our traditional notion of value, intellectual property, how do I build capacity, how do I scale a company, how do I grow a company – all this has been based on the assumption that a company had a very clear boundary….When companies are no longer totally self-contained and are porous, a lot of these traditional notions have to change and that is going to be a pretty big challenge from a 'managing the business' standpoint, managing the intellectual property, signing contracts, etc. but also from the workers standpoint, socially and culturally…."
What are the major technology trends and what do we need to do to take advantage of them?
"….Cloud computing….The infrastructure of the web itself is changing….A proliferation of devices….The whole social media combined is creating a new economy called the conversation economy….Collaboration….4th generation system development…."
What are the core drivers for organizational success in the next 5 years?
"….The work of the future that I see is one in which there are no projects, no metrics, no plans, no status reports, no deliverables, nobody really works for anybody, nobody is really accountable for anything but somehow stuff happens. In other words, work gets done because of these new communication capabilities…"
How are the skills framework and jobs for computing professionals changing in the next 5 years?
"….As computer infrastructure gets more complex….the infrastructure requires automation….As a result there is going to be less need for people to operate the infrastructure. But there is going to be more and more need for people who can architect systems. I think architecture is going to get a lot more complex because of different data formats…I think a big change in the profile of people involved in IT is there is going to be a lot less need for people who manage the day to day of running data centers (those are getting automated), and skill needs are going to be more architectural bound…."
Which are your top recommended resources and why?
"….Wikipedia….There are two things that humanity has done almost completely with volunteers (no plans, no metrics), one is Wikipedia but there is something else and I would say that this is probably the biggest open-source endeavour I can think of and that is the Appalachian Trail….If you read the history of the Appalachian Trail, that I think for any computer professional, will give them a much better sense of what makes the open-source movement work…."
Kishore shares some stories from his work.
If you were doing this interview, what questions would you ask and then what would be your answers?
