Psychotherapy should ideally be a fun and interesting process of self-exploration. It is often helpful to have a neutral (but supportive) person with whom to discuss your concerns. You should be able to take away something helpful, whether an idea, concept, or a new way of looking at an issue or pattern in your life. It doesn't have to take forever - you should feel within the first session that the therapist generally "got it" and was able to say something helpful to you.

Psychotherapy can be different things but it has to have respect, be safe, confidential, have good boundaries, and it has to be based on a good understanding of the needs and underlying factors that bring the patient/client to do this work. It is not about specific techniques but a good understanding of the individual's conscious and unconscious life. Dr. Jemail draws from personality theory, communication, traditional and psychdynamic approaches, cognitive behavioral work, work with trauma, understanding of medicine and Eastern approaches to change in order to work with the individual client. Dr. Jemail can provide a path, the individual sets the goals, pace and level of work.

Sitting with another and trusting them with your heart is a brave, beautiful, vulnerable choice. I am always honored and moved when someone chooses to bring to me their deepest thoughts and feelings - and in return, I bring unconditional love and care to each session, and work mindfully in every moment I spend with my clients. It is so important to me that you, as my client, know you are loved, that you are heard, and that your feelings will be held in confidence and with gentle care. That together, we will walk through whatever darkness you are facing, and that together we will work towards bringing you peace and wholeness.

It is critical that you develop a connected and trusting relationship with your therapist. That you feel safe and understood. When this relationship is formed, healing often begins. I am very influenced by positive psychology and neuroscience (the science of the brain). The concept of neuro-plasticity - that our brains can heal and improve at every age - offers hope and a guide to achieving the changes we desire.

Nashua woman allegedly forges numerous checks
Wendy Holden, 51, of 29 Kinsley St., has been charged with forgery, theft by deception and theft of services for the incidents, which began more than two years ago, police allege.

2012 San Francisco Litquake Lineup Announced
See this LA Times article on the 2012 Litquake in San Francisco.
From the article:
Two-time Booker Prize winner Peter Carey will be among the headliners at San Francisco's Litquake. The schedule for the eight-day literary festival, which takes place in several venues during October, was announced Tuesday.
Eight hundred and forty local and international authors will be reading and talking about books. In addition to novelist Peter Carey, some of the notable authors scheduled to appear are former U.S. poet laureate Robert Hass, humorist Merrill Markoe, Kenyan exile Ngugi wa Thiong'o, mystery writer Zoe Ferraris, satirist Will Self, California poet laureate Juan Felipe Herrera, writer Michelle Tea, Zyzzyva editor Oscar Villalon, poet Matthew Zapruder, fantasist Karen Joy Fowler, comedian Michael Ian Black, essayist Rebecca Solnit, underground publisher Adam Parfrey, novelist Andrew Sean Greer, poet D.A. Powell, thriller writer David Corbett, actor Chris Elliott, novelist Joshua Mohr and Salon.com founder David Talbot.
And then there's this: Graphic novelist Daniel Clowes will talk one-on-one with novelist, publisher and literacy proponent Dave Eggers. Although Eggers and his publishing house McSweeney's are based in San Francisco, the two promise to spend the evening discussing Chicago — as well as books and art and stuff. Tickets for that event are $15.
Tickets average about $10; some are more, some are less, and many discount bulk tickets are available. Many events are free, including some for children.

US Federal Reserve raises growth forecasts and says will keep interest rates low until 2014, as chairman Ben Bernanke says the bank "remains prepared to do more" to help economy.
Fidelity Investments says the Bank of Canada may raise interest rates after the Federal Reserve does as economic growth in the U.S. outstrips that of its northern neighbor.
It took Jon Hilsenrath just 11 minutes to post his 652 words Cliff notes explanation of what Bernanke really meant:
Myanmar is feeling the first effects of a sustained US dollar rally. On July 2, the exchange rate of the kyat to the US dollar rose to a new all-time high of 1,127.84 kyat to one dollar.
This is the highest (official) exchange rate for the kyat since April 1, 2012, when Myanmar's government allowed a managed float of the kyat. Should the US Federal Reserve opt to increase rates in the short-term, the economy could end up in a "perfect storm" of a currency crisis.
WASHINGTON — Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said on Wednesday the U.S. central bank still expects to start scaling back its massive asset purchase program later this year, but left open the option of changing that plan in either direction if the economic outlook shifted.
While sticking closely to a timeline he first outlined last month that the Fed would halt bond buying by mid-2014, when unemployment was projected to be around 7%, Bernanke went out of his way to stress that nothing was set in stone.
Outgoing Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke is speaking at the annual AEA/ASSA meeting. In his prepared remarks, he says more transparency would make Fed policy more potent, and that productivity growth in the U.S. has been "disappointing."
SAN FRANCISCO/NEW YORK (Reuters) - By ensuring the Federal Reserve begins trimming its massive bond-buying stimulus before a more hawkish contingent of voters comes on board next year, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke has greased the skids politically for his successor, Janet Yellen.
Soon we won't have Ben Bernanke to kick around anymore. Janet Yellen will head the Federal Reserve Bank.
What does it mean to you?
In an ideal world, it would mean nothing. You would shrug and go back to your morning coffee. Fed chairmen (and chairwomen), like referees, should not have such an impact on the game.
Competence in an economist is hard to measure, like knowing whether your auto mechanic is really any good.
The release of the statement from the Federal Reserve's latest FOMC monetary policy meeting today and Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke's subsequent press conference sent bonds tumbling. The chart below shows the exact moments that triggered the sell-off in 10-year Treasury futures that caused bond yields to soar today.
WASHINGTON — Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke strongly defended the U.S. central bank's bond-buying stimulus before Congress on Tuesday, saying its benefits clearly exceed possible costs.
The Fed chairman also urged lawmakers to avoid sharp spending cuts set to go into effect on Friday, which he warned could combine with earlier tax increases to create a "significant headwind" for the economic recovery.

Now that Halloween is quickly approaching and I'm putting the final touches on my Fett suit for the big day, I've started thinking about what I might like to put together for next year, and I would really like to build an ALIEN suit from the original James Cameron film with Sigourney Weaver.
Trouble is, I can't find anything anywhere on where I might be able to purchase the elusive "kit" I've seen on a few other costuming websites.
See here for what I'm talking about. http://www.aqpa87.dsl.pipex.com/scif...ns_costume.htm
Any help would be greatly appreciated
I've tried the Hunter's Lair and haven't come up with anything inb their search engine either.

When you haven't been in the cross-fire of a smart debater, you panic in the moment.
And, not only will they watch to see how you play ball, but how you act under all sorts of cross-fire, and in emergencies.
His lordship listened, though with a cross-fire of interruptions.
This cross-fire cleared that portion of the field; McCulloch's whole line gave way and retired out of view.
Irene kept up a cross-fire of words with the vicomte and Velletri.
The working parties were also exposed to a cross-fire, and large numbers of men were killed every day.
And now there was a cross-fire of welcomes and "We have missed you so much," and "How well you look!"
She might even have turned whiter than she did, and yet not be said to show the cross-fire of torments in her heart.
The kissing and hand-shaking began, and a cross-fire of good-byes.
On his arrival the enemy, exposed to a cross-fire, ran the risk of being surrounded and captured.

Suns reload roster, agree to deals with Beasley and Dragic
PHOENIX – The Phoenix Suns wasted no time reloading their roster after trading All-Star point guard Steve Nash.
First, enigmatic but talented small forward Michael Beasley agreed Wednesday to sign a three-year, $18 million contract with the Suns when free agency signings begin in a week. The Suns are taking a swing at the fences by signing Beasley, a high-level young talent whose four-year career has been marred by inconsistency and immaturity.
But the Suns weren't done, later reaching a four-year deal with guard Goran Dragic worth $34 million, with the fourth year on the deal being a player option.
Dragic, 26, from Slovenia, spent his first 2½ seasons in Phoenix before being traded to the Houston Rockets in the 2010-11 season.
He started 28 of 66 games for the Rockets this season, averaging 11.7 points, 2.5 rebounds and 5.3 assists, but 18 points and 8.4 assists as a starter. He will likely take over the starting point guard role vacated by Nash.
Beasley, 23, has averaged 15.1 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists over his four-year career with Miami and Minnesota but has had injury problems and uneven performances for a player taken second overall in the 2008 draft.
The Suns were the first team to visit Beasley when free agency opened Sunday in Los Angeles. Beasley came to Phoenix midday Wednesday and made a commitment Wednesday night, a night after restricted free agent Eric Gordon also committed to signing a four-year, $58 million offer sheet.
Despite his obvious talents, his problems off the court have followed him. Around 3 a.m. one night last June, he was ticketed for possessing marijuana and speeding in the Minneapolis suburb of Minnetonka. While playing for the Heat, Beasley has acknowledged, he twice violated the NBA's drug policy and entered a treatment facility for a time in 2009.
Beasley had vowed to work hard in the offseason to improve his overall game, with former NBA player Norm Nixon as something of a mentor.
At 6-foot-9, Beasley fits the Suns' need for more athleticism and might have been the most purely talented player on the Timberwolves' roster.
Beasley was bothered by injuries both his seasons with Minnesota.
"Both years, and I told Michael this a couple times recently, it is a shame that he got hurt," Minnesota general manager David Kahn said. "His offensive game wasn't there at the start, but I at least thought he was trying defensively and just applying himself with more rigor than he had the year before with the previous staff, and I was at least hopeful that maybe there is something here. And he got hurt again, and again."
Kahn also praised the way Beasley went along with going from a starter to reserve.

About Me
My name is Emily, and I am what you most would call an "extreme couponer." I love to go to a retail store, fill my basket with goodies, and walk away with a steal! I started couponing at the beginning of 2012, so I'm fairly new at it! I'm still learning, but I've got the hang of the stores I shop at. I have recently graduated from college, and have transitioned from couponing in Georgetown, Texas, to San Antonio, Texas. This blog will focus on deals I find online and in the stores near me in the Austin and San Antonio areas. I wanted to create this blog because when I started couponing I could only find national blogs to follow, there aren't many that are centralized in Texas. My hope for this blog is that I can give all the Central Texas Couponers a place to look to find the best deals near them. Couponing is very time consuming, but if you are dedicated to learn the ropes, you can succeed and be saving tons of money in no time!
I will use this blog to post the deals that I get when I do my shopping - which is normally on Sunday. Keep an eye out for those posts and possibly some for during the week as well!

(KANSAS CITY, Mo. and ST. LOUIS) June 25, 2014 – The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation today announced a grant to ITEN, a 501(c)3 organization that provides a precedent-setting structure for entrepreneurs to contribute to the growth and success of the St. Louis startup ecosystem.
The grant will provide $100,000 per year over the next two years to allow ITEN to expand and tabulate the tech startup ecosystem in St. Louis and link with other entrepreneur-support organizations.
ITEN's metric-based system tracks the interactions and connections that may reveal patterns of behavior predictive of entrepreneurial success or failure. ITEN will collaborate with the Foundation on other research projects and create a model and template that startup communities across the United States can adopt.
"Currently, research on programs for entrepreneurs and regional entrepreneurial ecosystems is lacking," said Dane Stangler, vice president of Research and Policy at the Kauffman Foundation. "ITEN is a standout organization that provides a means for studying groups of entrepreneurs and the entrepreneurial phenomena within a group setting. Our grant will help to further that research."
ITEN provides a benchmark model for fostering startup success by incorporating the strengths of incubators and accelerators – education, development and critical connections – but without the financial or equity commitment those organizations often require from young companies.
"As entrepreneurship continues to become a more mainstream element of economic development strategies in regions like St. Louis and beyond, ITEN's organic development and broad community reach experiences are timely and potentially replicable," said Francis Chmelir, director of Operations for ITEN. "ITEN is creating a 'playbook' of those experiences and strategies that other regions can study and iterate to implement their own community-supported programs."
ITEN's core offerings to accelerate tech startups include:
Business Model Validation Entrepreneurs at the concept stage are paired with experienced mentors to help identify the problem, solution and customer that the business will target, and to create a viable revenue model.
Mock Angel Program provides "tough love" from mentor/investors who critique the entrepreneur's investor pitch and provide constructive criticism, explaining why they would or would not invest in the business. Graduates are introduced to investors, with nearly 80 percent receiving outside funding.
EIR provides an Entrepreneur in Residence to selected ventures. EIRs work closely with their selected venture to provide a hands-on, strategic approach for rapid acceleration.
Talent Network Enabling tech startups to find the talent they need, ITEN maintains an extensive network of talent-producing and talent-finding organizations interested in the opportunities emerging from ITEN's ventures.
Community Involvement Through support of the Kauffman Lab's 1 Million Cups presentation series, educational programming such as ITEN 2nd Thursday, and targeted networking and development opportunities through SIGs (Special Interest Groups), ITEN links entrepreneurs with like-minded entrepreneurs, corporations, universities, civic organizations and talent
Additional major sponsors of ITEN include Civic Progress, Missouri Technology Corporation (MTC), St. Louis Economic Development Partnership, Gateway to Innovation Conference, Century Link, St. Louis Arch Angels, AHM Insurance Group, Greensfelder, iSelect Fund, Polsinelli and Stone Carlie.
About ITEN
ITEN provides a foundational system for entrepreneurs to work together towards building strong startups and a vibrant tech ecosystem. ITEN provides unique programs, events and access to resources that accelerate tech venture success. ITEN's programs form a venture roadmap from concept through design, prototype, launch, revenue, funding and rapid scaling. Guidance from serial entrepreneurs, subject matter experts and important community influencers helps entrepreneurs focus on essential critical tasks and avoid wasted efforts. Access to investors, key service providers and qualified talent means lower barriers to rapid growth. Designed by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs, requiring neither payment nor equity, ITEN is a unique community asset and a proven route to venture success. Follow ITEN on Twitter and Facebook.

Who Should Attend
This course is ideal for product owners, product managers, analysts, testers and anyone who represents and is expected to understand the desires of users and customers on agile projects. It is also great for Scrum Masters who want to attend with their product owners or to gain a greater understanding of the product owner role.
Course Overview
Scrum overview
Understand how the Agile Manifesto impacts the Scrum framework, and get an introduction to the roles and cycles used in Scrum.
Project chartering
As product owner, you need to know to develop a charter for your product that inspires team commitment and results in a clear goal. You'll also receive valuable templates to help communicate your product vision so that it is compelling and actionable.
Product backlog
The product backlog is the central nervous system of any Scrum project. As product owner, you need to know how to prioritize, refine and maintain it so that the team is always working on priority items without facing unnecessary delays.
You'll also discover how to use iterations to turn epics and themes into useful user stories that are clear and ready for the team to develop.
Learn how the three Scrum roles of product owner, Scrum Master and team work together using Scrum. As product owner, you'll also understand what is expected from you in terms of availability, decision-making and your relationship with stakeholders.
Learn more than how a sprint plan works. Find yourself equipped with skills to manage the complexities that can disrupt progress. What should you do if a team falls behind? When should work be added or dropped from a sprint? And when should you abnormally terminate a sprint?
Creating accurate estimates of when something will ship and what it will do provides confidence for stakeholders and encourages commitment from technical team members. In this course, you'll learn about story points, the top misunderstanding that prevents teams from using them successfully, and use Planning Poker to estimate them as a group. As a product owner, this lets you make long-terms plans more easily and prioritize stories for the team.
Master a step-by-step, methodical system for prioritizing. You'll discover how to identify which features are mandatory, linear or exciters, and then find out how to aggregate and weigh results based on importance. The result is a prioritized product backlog that is easy to follow and deliver.
Release Management
Using velocity ranges, you'll develop a system for making accurate estimations for fixed-date and fixed-scope projects. You'll also understand how technical debt may affect your progress and how burndown charts can quickly show the team's progress.

Buffalo Sabres defenceman Rasmus Ristolainen scored at 9:42 of overtime to give Finland its third world junior hockey title, 3-2 over Sweden on Sunday.
Ristolainen picked up the puck along the right boards, beat defenceman Robert Hagg as he cut in front of the goal and slid a backhander under goalie Oscar Dansk's right leg pad. Ristolainen has one goal in 19 games this season for Buffalo.
Finland also won the under-20 event in 1987 in Czechoslovakia and 1998 at home in Helsinki.
Sweden's tied it at 2-2 on Christian Djoos' power-play goal with 9:07 left in the third period. Djoos beat goalie Juuse Saros with a slap shot through traffic from the high slot.
Finland's Era Lindell — drafted by Dallas — scored 28 seconds into the game, and Lucas Wallmark tied it on a power play at 7:53 of the second. Finland regained the lead 45 seconds later on Nashville draft pick Saku Maenalanen's goal.
Saros, also drafted by Nashville, made 35 saves, and Chicago Blackhawks prospect Teuvo Teravainen had three assists to help Finland hand Sweden its first loss in seven games in the tournament. Teravainen won the scoring title with 15 points on two goals and 13 assists, and Maenalanen topped the goals list with seven.
Sweden's Filip Forsberg was selected the tournament most valuable player. The Nashville forward had four goals and eight assists in seven games.
Earlier, Germany beat Norway 3-1 for a 2-1 victory in the best-of-three relegation series. Germany will remain in the competition next year in Montreal and Toronto, while Denmark will take Norway's spot in the 10-team event. Frederik Tiffels, Dominik Kahun and Patrik Klopper scored for Germany and Marvin Cupper made 34 saves.
"It's our goal to be a top-10 nation, and that's what we did today," said Leon Draisaitl, who had two assists. "It's going to be probably the greatest experience you'll ever have next year, playing in Toronto and Montreal."
The tournament drew 144,268 fans, breaking the European record of 139,680 set in 1998 in Finland. The overall record is 453,282 in Ottawa in 2009.Report Typo/Error

Bali LoveRonald & Lenny by David
Shooting for Ronald and Lenny is something I would love to do again. Aside from all the fun we had, shooting them made me feel like I was shooting a tourism ad for one of my favorite cities in the world. We covered all the best spots there is to find in Bali – the waterfall, the beach, villas, the vibrant nightlife, even horse riding into the sunset.
When we see beautiful images of two people in love such as these, we can't help but imagine just how perfect and how grand love is. In reality, love isn't always so. Love isn't in the perfections – nights can seem longer, days can seem hotter, and we don't always find flowers on our doorstep to brighten our day. I think that to really experience love, we're going to have to look at it from the opposite. When nothing seems to be in place, when the future still seemed bleak, or when health is fading, when we're old and wrinkled and grey… that's when true love is visible. True love will stand the test of time!
To Ronal and Lenny, it was really our pleasure to capture your spectacular moment of love in Bali. We wish you a lifetime of loving each other. Let's meet up again one day for your 50th anniversary, still holding hands and still so madly in love!

Roof replace with shake
I just bought an old house and paid cash. Then, my insurance agent sent an email (after originally setting up my homeowners) that they would not insure it until the roof was replaced.
The roof doesn't leak so the plan was to do it late summer, but now this has made me very vulnerable.
Also, the old roof is 2 layers of asphalt over wood shakes and the quote I liked was almost 9k. I don't know a lot about roofing, but I knew enough to avoid some of the low ones I got. This guy listed everything he was going to do in detail.
With less time to play with this and more money than I anticipated, this is going to be difficult to work out. The roofer told me the major difference in price is the prep work because of the shakes.
I have been trying to come up with some way to reduce this cost, and I was thinking about my 2 nephews who would love to help me! It looks good on paper that they could tear off and remove all the nails and then it could be roofed as normal, but I know that's a stretch. Coordinating the timing and worrying about the weather might be impossible, but it would sure save me.
Should I forget this idea or is it doable?
Just aggravates me that I have to rush it, not because the roof itself is leaking but because of insurance.
Thanks for any thoughts on this!
More than likely you have cedar shingles rather than shakes if they've been asphalt shingled over. The cedar shingles are also likely installed over split sheathing rather than solid sheathing. All the layers of asphalt and cedar must be removed and solid sheathing (plywood or OSB) will have to be installed if this condition exists. It's a labor intensive chore and the house is vulnerable to rain for a longer time than with a simple tear off/re-roof. Probably not the best place for inexperienced DIYer's to get their wings.
There's a good roofer from Indy on this forum. Hopefully he'll be along shortly to assist you.
Hi Lisa, I think I responded to another pose of yours. Anyway, depending on the roof, having it de-shingles appears to be the largest issue. I'd shop around and explain that the roofing material is going to be garbaged. If need be, you can tell a possible little white lie and say you have friends to do the re-roofing. Stripping the roof will take some time but you also have to check the wood sheathing under the shingles. To give you a basic idea of costs, new shingles (asphalt or fiberglass) run about $29 per bundle. (in Canada, but similar in the US) Each bundle civers approx. 33 sq. Feet, so if you do the math you can get an idea of material costs. I'd add more for felt paper (about $100) and if you want metal trim call drip edge, add up to another $100 to be safe. There may be a few added items, depending on your climate, but his will give you a "ball park" figure. Installation is about the same and material costs. Plus there may be an added cost for removal of the old shingles ... because, as you mentioned, there are three layers. All in all, once it's done, I think you'll be a happy camper. Just do the math and don't be shy about asking questions. I hate to see anyone taken advantage of.
All the best.
Did I mention how much I dislike insurance companies?
Thanks for the info. I suppose I have no choice but to get this worked out :(
I think alot of DIY'rs but this project is a professional project.This project is labor intensive and requires a higher level of education within the construction trade.Alot of homes out of the shake era have multiple layers of shingles still an the roofs.I reroofed one that had 11 layers over shakes.
I would feel safe assuming that the roof is steep.When working on steep it requires a higher level of danger associated with steep construction.
Proper safety precautions need and should be acknowledged and abided by.Remember you have no insurance.
I would research more contractors in your area.If proper installation and proper safety issues are not addressed then your project which should be a fun experience will turn into a financial and emotional nightmare.
I know you are right, and probably knew it all along. Best to do it once, do it right, and be done. Getting more than one person involved would be asking for trouble if there was a problem later.
This is just one of those situations I am sure we've all experienced... a problem appears that is not only is worse than expected, but the consequences (for me, insurance cancelling) are even bigger. My desperate mind is just stretching fruitlessly!
There is no question that I will have to put it off longer than what I would like and live with the huge risk. Somehow I will make it work, and hope for a little luck.
With the amount of work require for your project you need a pro.I feel that you are making a wise decision.I also feel after its all said and done you will be proud of your decision.
Just remember to use the same thought process when having the roof installed.Don't be caught up in the same desperate feelings and hire Bo Diddly's brother who you see at the drive thru at Mc D's.Make sensible and confident decisions about your home.Take care of your home and it will take care of you.
Actually I was nice to several of my properties and they had a funny way of showing love back.
I am in the acceptance stage :( getting it done right is gonna cost me
You know, the thing that really ticks me off about situations like this is. That roof could be fully functional for many many more years. Two layers of asphalt on a layer of cedar. If all the details, flashings and whatnot are in good condition I'd like to see water get through that. How about trying with a few insurance companies with an exclusion for any roof problems? Try getting coverage through a small local co-op insurance company. I had a friend who insured a barn with Mennonite mutual aid. I had recommended to him that the barn be torn down and the first big wind that came along was going to do the job for him. Well sure enough it blew down and he got something like $50K from the insurance. It ticked me off actually, it was almost fraud in my mind. Well ,that's besides the point anyway but in my long experience with roofs like yours, reroofing them is more often than not an esthetic thing because the old roof looks so bad rather than being a fuctional thing where the roof is either leaking or about to.
I had gone back and forth with him at least 6 times and he was firm that he could not insure me and no one else would either. But this time...
Yes, he has renovation policies for 3,6,9 or 12 months.
He has no idea what difficulties he caused- it almost killed the deal. I am just shocked at this turn of events. Happy though!

Newly-Single Lana Del Rey Slammed by Frances Bean Cobain for "Death" Remarks
She's never been one to worry about public opinion, so when Lana Del Rey began waxing philosophical on the "death of young musicians," it wasn't long before she received backlash.
In fact, Frances Bean Cobain (daughter of the late Kurt Cobain) took issue with the "Video Games" vixen's remarks in her interview with The Guardian.
Cobain tweeted, "The death of young musicians isn't something to romanticize. I'll never know my father because he died young, and it becomes a desirable feat because people like you think it's 'cool.' Well, it's f*cking not."
"Embrace life, because you only get one life. The people you mentioned wasted that life. Don't be one of those people. You're too talented to waste it away," added Frances, referring to her father as well as Amy Winehouse.
"I'm not attacking anyone. I have no animosity towards Lana. I was just trying to put things in perspective from personal experience."
Del Rey also shared some thoughts about the article- "I didn't want to do an interview, but the journalist was persistent. (He) was masked as a fan, but was hiding sinister ambitions and angles."
In relationship news, Lana also shot down rumors that she's engaged to Barrie-James O'Neill, when in fact they broke up. "We are currently not together. He is a wonderful person. But there are some things with which he has to deal. I will not explain it in detail. This was hard on our relationship, I no longer felt free. We'll see how it goes."

While visiting the UC Berkeley Botanical Garden, we were really excited to check out the Wollemi Pine. We love pretty much any tree in the Araucariaceae family, but this guy is extremely rare. It was first discovered in 1994 near Sydney, Australia in the Blue Mountains.
We had never even heard of this cool tree until a few weeks ago, while watching a documentary about the Chihuly glass installation at Kew Gardens. Kew keeps their Wollemi in a big metal cage, Berkeley lets their two specimens roam free.
Eventually this guy will grow up to 65 feet, with a 3 foot wide trunk. Fossils date the Wollemi back 90 million years. It's amazing to think that they hung out with the dinosaurs.
Matti created this beautiful graphic with the help of his iphone, sharpie marker, and a post-it note to help you locate it. I asked a gardener where it was, and she pointed us in the right direction. Matti gets the prize for finding it first.
For tons more information about this cool tree check out WollemiPine.com. A few years back National Geographic had them for sale, but we haven't been able to track any down. Our friend Rob at The Pitcher Plant Project in Pacifica would love to get his hands on one for his prehistoric garden. Any leads would rock!

Manatee County, FL (The Weekly Vice) - Shavonna Rumph, a 31-year-old Florida woman, was jailed Saturday after she allegedly assaulted her boyfriend because he refused to "cuddle" with her.
According to the Manatee County Sheriff's office, Shavonna and her boyfriend had been drinking Saturday night when Shavonna expressed that she was in the mood for some cuddling when the couple settled down to sleep.
An argument ensued when the boyfriend, 33-year-old Henry Price, refused to cuddle with Shavonna. The dispute turned physical when Shavonna grabbed Henry's shirt, causing it to tear.
When Henry attempted to leave the residence, Shavonna dragged a table in front of the door to prevent him from leaving. When that failed to deter Henry from leaving, Shavonna allegedly grabbed a kitchen knife and threatened Henry with it.
During questioning, Shavonna admitted to grabbing Henry by the shirt when he refused to "cuddle" with her but denied threatening him with a knife.
She was booked into the Manatee County Jail and charged with battery domestic violence.

Crawdads & RIverDogs Split Twin Bill
'Dads drop first game 4-2; bounce back with 3-0 shutout in nightcap
By Aaron Cox / Hickory Crawdads | May 17, 2014 12:15 AM ET
Charleston, SC - The Hickory Crawdads earned a split of their doubleheader against the Charleston RiverDogs Friday night, as the 'Dads dropped the first game 4-2 but bounced back with a 3-0, shutout victory in the nightcap to leave town with the series win.
Both contests featured standout pitching performances, with Charleston's Brady Lail striking out 11 while earning the win in game one and Hickory's Tyler Smith tossing five shutout with seven Ks to pick up the win in the second game.
The first matchup featured a flurry of scoring early, followed by four scoreless frames in the 'Dads 4-2 defeat. RiverDogs leadoff hitter Jose Rosario set the tone early, as the third baseman hit the very first pitch in the bottom of the first over the left field wall for a solo home run and a 1-0 Charleston lead.
The Crawdads answered in the top of the 2nd when Travis Demeritte and Joe Jackson laced consecutive singles to put runners on the corners with nobody out. Two batters later the pair were still on the corners with two away, prompting 'Dads manager Corey Ragsdale to call for a double steal. Jackson purposefully got caught in a rundown between first and second, allowing Demeritte to run home and score to tie the game at 1-1.
The tie evaporated in the bottom of the frame however, as the 'Dogs got to Crawdads starter Frank Lopez for three runs on four hits to retake the lead at 4-1. Mirroring the start of the first inning, Charleston center fielder Brandon Thomas hit the first pitch of the inning for a solo shot to kick-start the rally.
The 'Dads narrowed the gap to 4-2 with a run in the top of the third, when Evan Van Hoosier tripled to left-center and scored on a throwing error at third.
That would be the last run scored by either team though. The Crawdads threatened one last time in the top of the 7th, placing the tying runs at second and third with two outs, but shortstop Michael De Leon struck out looking to end the game with a 4-2 Hickory loss.
Lail (6-1) earned the win for Charleston after allowing two runs on four hits with 11 Ks over six innings pitched. Lopez (3-2) took the loss with a season-high four runs allowed on four hits, four walks, and six strikeouts over six innings on the mound. RiverDogs reliever Chris Smith (1) picked up the save after leaving the tying runs on base in the 7th.
The Crawdads responded to the game one loss with a dominant pitching effort in game two, highlighted by Smith keeping the 'Dogs at bay over the first five frames. The 'Dads capitalized on the stellar pitching by jumping out to a 1-0 lead in the third when Kevin Torres doubled to right, took third base on a passed ball, and eventually scored on an RBI ground out by De Leon.
The narrow advantage seemed secure until the 6th, when Charleston used three-straight, 2-out walks by 'Dads reliever Ryne Slack to load the bases and threaten to take the lead. The Crawdads were able to escape disaster however, with right-hander Josh McElwee striking out Miguel Andujar to end the frame and strand the bases loaded.
Hickory picked up some much-needed insurance runs in the top of the 7th, when Nomar Mazara doubled to right and was driven in in the next at-bat on a two run moonshot homer over the left field foul pole by Demeritte to push the lead to 3-0.
The drama wasn't over though, as singles by Rosario and Kale Sumner put two men on and brought the potential tying run to the plate for the RiverDogs with only one out in the bottom of the 7th. McElwee bounced back with a caught-looking strikeout of Charleston right fielder Mikeson Oliberto, a call that Oliberto argued with home plate umpire Derek Gonzales to the point of being ejected. RiverDogs manager Luis Dorante was eventually ejected arguing the call as well.
Following the ejections, McElwee finished off the win with a strikeout of Tyler Wade to give the Crawdads the 3-0 win.
Smith (1-0) earned his first win of the season for the 'Dads with his shutout performance. Charleston starter Caleb Smith (3-3) was the hard luck loser after allowing only one run on two hits, one walk, and eight strikeouts over six innings pitched. McElwee (1) picked up the save by picking up all four of his outs via the strikeout.
Demeritte ended the double header going a combined 2-6 with his team-leading 8th homer of the year, while former Citadel star Jackson went 2-3 with a stolen base in his return to Joseph P. Riley Jr. Park.
The Crawdads (18-22) leave Charleston with two wins in the three-game series against the RiverDogs (21-19). The 'Dads will now start a 4-game set in Kannapolis against the Intimidators, with first pitch on Saturday scheduled for 7:05 pm.

- - Start my new Tattoo tomorrow, any advice? (http://www.mmaforum.com/lounge/79140-start-my-new-tattoo-tomorrow-any-advice.html)
Start my new Tattoo tomorrow, any advice?
Well, after several months of waiting my appointment is finally here. i'm excited yet a bit nervous at the same time. i have a small tattoo but this one is going to be fairly large. Prob. going to be in the chair for 4-5 hours so I'm not really sure what to expect. Anyone have any advice or tips to get thru the time? The artist is a cool guy and I've seen his work so that's def. a major plus so I'm sure we'll have good conversation but I guess I just don't know what to expect from the day.
It all depends on where the ink is going to be... It could be a fairly relaxing or painful 4-5 hours. A lot of this also depends on if the artist has heavy hands and goes deep for the line work.
I have my full back done and a lot of it I literally fell asleep with. Places to watch out for that are painful are near the sternum, on the calves, the sides of the chest, and under the arm. Everywhere else is pretty easy to deal with. Let me know if you have any specific questions for the area the ink is going to be.
I have both upper quarter sleeves, both pectorals, my full back and my right calve done and am most likely going to get my shoulders capped off and done after my fight next week.
Thanks for the advise it's very helpful. I'm getting basically a little less than a 1/2 sleeve. There will be some on my bicep on the inside so I'm assuming that is going to hurt quite a bit. Do you bring anything with you like your Ipod or anything? I'm not planning on it at least for tomorrows visit.
No my artist had a TV and he would pop in a movie or music while he worked. The outer arm really doesn't hurt at all especially after the start of it. After a bit your body will start to pump out endorphines and the pain will dull a decent amount. This won't be enough for the inner arm though as it is very tender and the nerves are more dense there. The back of the arm is a little worse than the outer arm but no where compared to the inner arm. Just make sure to eat before and drink lots of water. DO NOT drink any alcohol tonight and try not to take anything that thins the blood as it will make the work more difficult for the artist and the final result won't be as good. Controled and steady breathing will help a lot when it gets painful and just stay focused. Not sure what other advice I can give but hope it helps. Music may help though!
Take some candy or gum along. That is a pretty long session and even though it is rather easy to endure the pain your sugar levels could drop. You could get lightheaded and possibly even faint. This could happen even if you find the experience pleasurable like I do. Make sure you eat a good meal before hand. Hope it all works out for you and you get some kick-ass ink!
I don't have much of a problem with them at all, but I know people who do. What I do, is I try to keep a conversation going with the artist to keep my mind off of it. You could always take an ipod or something to listen to music and try not to focus on the tattoo.
Another thing that I do, (If it doesn't weird you out to see yourself bleeding and swelling a bit) I like to watch him do the tattoo if possible. I enjoy watching it a lot actually, it is pretty neat.
No painkillers or alcohol at all beforehand. It will thin your blood and make it bleed more thus making it harder for the artist to work as efficiently. Just do your best to cope with the pain, and do things to keep your mind busy.
Trust me, it is well worth it. :thumbsup:
No advice needed, its not so bad and you'll numb up in a bit ;)
Thanks for the tips and it doesn't hurt it's just really annoying. Except there were a few areas that did suck pretty bad.
Just to prepare you the color is going to be the worst part. Just dont drink or smoke ganja before hand. Drinking will make you bleed more and the ganja will make you feel the pain more.
It's funny that you say this because the artist said the color isn't as bad as the outline. He said the outline is worse because you're putting the ink down much darker than you do with the color. He said the outline is thicker which is why it is worse. Either way it's not that bad. Can't wait to get this thing completed though.

This girl is growing up. She likes to peel her satsuma herself now. (And then moments after this photo was taken, hold it aloft, shout "bang!" and then hurl it on the table... She did eat it, once it had lost its ball-like status and reverted to being a satsuma).
Here we are again. I wasn't sure if I was going to take part this year, or if I was going to share the weekly photos, but I can't resist joining in. Last year, taking the weekly portrait allowed me to capture all the stages in her development from baby to toddler. This year I want to try and capture the different aspects of her character. Her likes and dislikes. What she can, and can't yet, do. Catch a glimpse of the little girl she is rapidly turning into.
Joining in over at Practising Simplicity.

Cute photo. My little babe has just started eating oranges, but we have to give them to her in pieces. Yesterday she was drinking some orange juice and water out of her sippy cup, which is a new thing, and I wasn't paying attention until I realized I heard a lot of splashing noises. Most of the juice was now on her tray, which made a wonderful puddle to splash in, and on her face. She apparently didn't mind because she kept doing it!ReplyDeleteReplies
Ha, I can just imagine it - splashing it's a very fun toddler activity isn't it?! The way they gain new skills is so quick - she's gone from needing us to give the orange in pieces to wanting to do it herself in just a few weeks. Little ones are just so clever! xDelete
Wow, all that green and orange is jumping out at me! I adore her concentration face - little brow :) Holly.xReplyDeleteReplies
That was my first thought when I looked back at the photos - green and orange! Yes we get that concentrating frowny face a lot now, tis cute! xDelete
Adorable photo! What an independent little one!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks! She's getting much more independent...more and more every day! xDelete
Gosh, hasn't she grown in a year! Beautiful portrait. xReplyDelete
You know, I hadn't looked back at last year's 1/52 until you said that - she really has! It's so scary and amazing how fast they grow. Thank you xReplyDelete

Thanks Amy! I'm thrilled 🙂
Hi Sarah,
I wish I had been there to see you win for the second time. So thrilled for you!
Here's to next year to make it a trifecta! xx
Congratulations Sarah! The book is in my TBR pile — now I need to move it up! LOL
Congratulations 2013 RITA Winner Sarah Morgan!!!
The Romance Writers of America have announced the winners of the 2013 RITA Awards and we're thrilled that author Sarah Morgan won for best Short Contemporary Series Romance with her Harlequin Presents book A Night of No Return! Congratulations Sarah on another RITA win!!!
About A Night of No Return:
Money, charm and sensual skills don't make up for a heart colder than ice…
Wild parties, wanton women, relentless work—nothing helps tycoon Lucas Jackson escape his dark and haunting past. Arriving at his rural castle in a snarling snowstorm, he craves only complete isolation.… But it seems oblivion can take an unexpected and highly intoxicating form!
Personally delivering the vital file left on her boss's desk, secretary Emma Gray starts to seriously regret her dutiful overtime mission. She never expected the dark side of the usually controlled Lucas could generate such a primitive, powerful—and entirely inappropriate—reaction.

Global Social Betterment & Humanitarian Programs Sponsored by the Church of Scientology
Church of Scientology Recognized with DeRose-Hinkhouse Memorial Awards of Excellence
The Religion Communicators Council (RCC) honored the Church of Scientology with two DeRose-Hinkhouse Memorial Awards of Excellence at the Council's 2012 convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
The first award went to the Scientology website, www.Scientology.org [11]. Online since 1996 in the early days of the World Wide Web, the site has kept pace with the latest technical and creative advances to bring about an experience RCC judges describe as "lively, inviting and exciting." Now in 17 languages, the site's use of video makes it easy for visitors to gain an understanding of core concepts of the Scientology religion, learn about Church-sponsored humanitarian and social betterment campaigns and meet more than 200 Scientologists in the popular "Meet a Scientologist" section of the website. And with new Ideal Scientology Churches opening in cities around the world throughout the year, the site is regularly updated with news and videos of these grand openings events.
The RCC judges also honored the Church with an Award of Excellence for Scientology Handbook: Tools for Life videos on DVD, saying they were impressed with the "top-notch writing, production and post production" of this 2 1/2-hour video, particularly "the choice of lenses, the music and direction." They described the result as "very persuasive communication."
Comprised of 19 individual videos, Scientology Handbook: Tools for Life is available online through the homepage of the Scientology website along with 19 corresponding free online courses. The Scientology Handbook: Tools for Life film provides an introduction to basic Scientology principles that can be used to improve any aspect of life, including the most common and overwhelming difficulties and challenges—a failed marriage, trouble raising children, problems on the job, conflicts, and how to overcome any barrier to achieving one's goals.
The videos are based on the Scientology Handbook, a text compiled from the works of L. Ron Hubbard who directed Scientology technology to be made readily available to enable anyone to take "effective steps to arrest and reverse the deterioration of a world where the individual is increasingly beset by economic, political and social forces that seem more and more overwhelming." The Scientology Handbook is the textbook for the training of the Volunteer Minister, defined by Mr. Hubbard in 1976 as "a person who helps his fellow man on a volunteer basis by restoring purpose, truth and spiritual values to the lives of others."
The RCC is an interfaith association of religion communicators who work in print and electronic communication, marketing, and public relations. Established in 1929, it is the oldest association of religion communicators in America.
The DeRose-Hinkhouse Memorial Awards are given annually to active members of the Religion Communicators Council (RCC) who demonstrate excellence in religious communications and public relations.
For more information on the Religion Communicators Council, visit www.ReligionCommunicators.org [12]. For more information on the Scientology website and the Scientology Handbook: Tools for Life film on DVD, visit www.Scientology.org [11].
The Scientology religion was founded by author and philosopher L. Ron Hubbard [13]. The first Church of Scientology was formed in the United States in 1954 and has grown to more than 10,000 Churches, Missions and affiliated groups and millions of members in 167 nations.
