John W. Herbert, Ph.D., trained as a Mechanical Engineer at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, spent much of his life involved in Commercial Aviation, having flown for the South American Division of Pan American, and as a Charter Pilot for NorthStar Aviation in Redding, California and Sun Valley Aviation in Idaho. He has also built two Experimental Aircraft. He retired as an active pilot in 2006.
In the 1960s, his life and interests changed, and he became deeply involved in studying dreams, attending the C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich. He did not pursue a strictly Jungian line of study, but continued to study different approaches to dreams, later becoming a Certified Dreamwork Facilitator.
Interested in biofeedback and the mind, in 1970, his Masters Thesis in Psychology at San Francisco State University was a study of the EEG Changes During Zen Meditation, and led to his Doctorate in Psychology at Saybrook Institute in 2000 at the age of 77.
He was an onstage co-host on America Online's "Dr. Jeremy Taylor's Dream Show," five days a week, for over a year. His personal dream journal contains over 11,000 dreams. He has been able to compare his evolving dream imagery with his business diaries, confirming the value of dreams as a source of information and guidance in the realms of health, business decisions, and relationships. He is a published author in the field of Aviation and Dream Work and has developed methods of working with dream groups online utilizing the "If It Were My Dream" approach to sharing dreams. Dr. Herbert has worked with individuals and groups, in person and with computers, assisting them in understanding their dream symbology. He has been referred to as "The Grandfather of Online Dream-work."

CGSociety :: Production Focus
27 July 2011, by Trevor Hogg
"There was an awful a lot of work involved to make our main visual effect, 'Skinny Steve', the pre-rebirth Steve Rogers, before he is transformed into Captain America," says Visual Effects Supervisor Christopher Townsend of the central character who appears in the first third of Captain America: The First Avenger (2011). "We talked about using a CG head similar to what they had done with The Curious Case of Benjamin Button [2008]." The idea was subsequently aborted.
"It wouldn't have served the purpose of the film and the purpose of the film is to get our actor, Chris Evans in this case, up on screen. We all wanted his performance to be there as much as possible. After much R&D we ended up with a 2D solution where we are literally mesh warping Chris Evans' body and slimming him down, reducing his shoulders and arms, making his face more gaunt, thinning out his nose, making his chin more pointy, not quite an all American square jaw, and also making him shorter by about five inches."
The iconic shield which Captain America wields both as a defensive tool and a lethal weapon is shown in various states of disrepair; it consists of four types: metal, fiberglass, rubber, and CG. "Chris Evans would practice swinging the practical shield so he knew the arc and the speed at which he should move," says Christopher Townsend. "We would take the shield from him and shoot the scene with him miming it. Then we would add in a CG shield. There were a few shots where he's close to camera, he's holding the shield, runs into frame, draws his arm back, the shield goes out of frame, he drops the shield in reality and throws his arm forward. Then the CG shield would take over." Portraying the shield as a realistic flying object that could hit people and rebound off walls was no easy matter. "We were trying to find the balance between making it a heavy dangerous object and a lightweight Frisbee type thing. We gave the CG shield shakes and vibrations as it moves through the air so you can really feel it as a physical object."
No comic book movie can be complete without an arch villain. Selected to portray the Red Skull was Hugo Weaving who wears a latex mask conceived by Prosthetic Makeup Designer David White. "It looked beautiful because you weren't quite sure whether it was bone, skin, muscle, or blood," enthuses Christopher Townsend. "We realized at the beginning of its production design that we would have to manipulate his face considerably because physically when you put a quarter inch mask over a human you can never get it smaller than a human and that's what you want. We wanted to make it look like tight skin as it's wrapped around a very boney structure. Hugo isn't a really gaunt guy but we had to make him that. We had to thin out his cheeks, hollow out his eyes a little more, remove his eyelashes, and thin out his lower lip to make him more like the Red Skull character. Not too mention, remove his nose too."
Producing the nearly 1,600 visual effect shots featured in Captain America: The First Avenger was no small task. "There were 13 different companies that we worked with, as well one that was in house," says Christopher Townsend. "We tried to split the work up so there were individual sequences that each company was working on." British VFX facility Framestore initially developed Red Skull, Luma Pictures did some digital background work, Matte World Digital created full CG environments, Whiskytree recreated New York City in the 1940s with the Brooklyn Bridge, LOOK FX in L.A. and New York helped to float a car, and the German VFX company RiseFX was brought in at the last minute to finish some complex simulation work.
Double Negative in England served as the main vendor for the movie; it handled about 700 of the visual effects which included designing and incorporating planes, trains, cars and tanks. "Everything was built from supplied Art department models with the exception of Schmidt's six wheeled car which we lidar scanned," explains Visual Effects Supervisor Charlie Noble. "We visited a few aircraft museums, principally Duxford, where we took a load of reference stills for detail and textures. Whilst there, we also hired a couple of tanks for the day to provide motion studies for our Landkreuzer."
Dneg was also involved in the creation of several sequences: The Crypt (Schmidt finds the cube), Schmidt's Office (testing the cube, gunfiring, Nazi deaths), Hydra Factory (interior and exterior), Train, Commandos Attack on Schmidt's Office, Hangar and Runway, Bomber and Podfighter Aerials (exterior and interior, including the shots where the cube goes nova) and the Arctic Crash. "One of the biggest challenges was the sheer scale of everything, and selling that scale; a bomber with a 165m wingspan, a vast underground hangar and runway, a tank the size of a house and a factory large enough to make them." Overseeing the Hydra Factory Sequence was Vanessa Boyce who says, "the approach we used for the exploding factory lighting setup was to provide Trevor Young [composite lead] and his team with enough variety in lighting passes and control over individual lights within the passes so that they could achieve the chaos and randomness that you'd expect in an exploding weapons factory."
Lola VFX, situated in California, was given the pivotal assignment of turning Chris Evans into a 98-pound weakling. "The biggest challenge for creating Skinny Steve was maintaining consistency over all the shots," states Visual Effects Supervisor Edson Williams, who applied a method called Digital Plastic Surgery to make the character a cinematic reality. "Over the last six years, we have developed a unique process and review methodologies that make consistency possible. A lead artist will create an approved look for a sequence, and the look will be rolled into subsequent shots. We use digital measurements and cyberscans to help stay consistent."
The VFX facility was given a second significant job. "Red Skull was much easier for us than the Skinny Steve sequences. Framestore had already gone thru the development process, and an approved look had been developed. It took us about a week to match the lighting and textures from Framestore; once that was complete, we used pfTrack to 3D track Red Skull's face, and Flame for the composites." Williams adds, "The major issue we had with Red Skull was matching the constantly changing lighting of the scene. Our 3D department had to set keyframes for every muzzle flash, electrical spark, and head turn in the shots. Our sequence included a lot of hand to hand combat, and it really slowed down the 3D lighting crew."
Responsibility for creating the Kruger Chase Sequence involving the newly transformed Captain America pursuing a German saboteur was given to The Senate. Richard Higham, a Visual Effects Supervisor at the London-based VFX facility, digitally augmented the 1940s period dressing, devised by the film's Art Department, by painting out air conditioning units, altering fire escapes, and morphing buildings. The setting, which consisted of a couple of streets in Manchester and Liverpool, had to be extended so it looked as if the two adversaries "were really making their way through a bustling Brooklyn." The deployment of different camera lenses during the principle photography resulted in various levels of distortion. "In some cases we had to cheat our perspective and our horizon line because it didn't feel right." The buildings were not the only things being modified as the prosthetic boots wore by Chris Evans were replaced with CG bare feet. "Luckily we had a nice cutoff where he had a trouser leg that came roughly four or five inches down his calf and then stopped." The Senate multiplied the crowd featured in the United Services Organization Sequence. Fifty to 100 movie extras were recorded in different camera positions; the resulting images were altered and blended together to form a massive audience of soldiers gathered to hear Captain America speak.
California-based VFX facility Method had two and a half months to assemble the Parachute Jump Sequence where Captain America leaps out of a Stark Industries aircraft while surrounded by the chaos of war. "The interior shots were a gimbal set of a plane interior against the green screen with the actors," reveals Visual Effects Supervisor Sean Faden. "Then we comped in the background. We had real plates of the Swiss Alps that were shot in the daytime and we did a day for night on them. We layered in CG clouds in pretty much every shot to add additional depth and to get a sense of speed. We also had to create a lot of reflections in the windows of the plane." A camera was mounted on a techno crane to capture the necessary images. "One of the big challenges was getting the motion of the background right relative to the plane," reveals Faden. "We would pre-match exactly what the gimbal was doing and exactly what the camera was doing but it would feel like the plane was moving too much. So we had to go through and reanimate the digital version of our plane, [and make it] a little more subdued but with the bounces still happening at the same time."
German VFX facility Trixter handled the Red Skull Origins Flashback Sequence. "The first idea was to give it a sort of awkward, almost disturbing, atmosphere," says Visual Effects Supervisor Alessandro Cioffi. "We were asked to come up with a few ideas for grading the sequence, and adding different lensing artifacts while layering multiple elements in an artistic but almost retro way. For the grading, we've gone for the look of the 'three strip Technicolor Process', color corrected each channel individually in terms of hue, contrast and saturation and then recombined with the other two. The final effect of aged footage sits very well in the movie." Reflecting on the assignment, Cioffi states, "The biggest challenge has been definitely the schedule! We only had six weeks to accomplish over 100 shots. We had to seamlessly 'plug' into other vendors' work on the same sequences, which meant that we had to duplicate some of their effects along with creating our own, but in the same style."
rok!t Creative Director Steve Viola made sure that the integrity of the 1940s propaganda posters incorporated into the main end title sequence remained intact. "We took the posters, broke them down into all of the different elements, painted them out, brought them into Maya, and had a whole 3D team dimensionalize and model all of the different pieces so to establish each poster as an entire environment. Then we would fly through it and seamlessly connect poster to poster." A subtle stereoscopic approach was purposely employed as Viola didn't want "to have things popping out at you but to instead feel more like a window to the world of each poster." Viola's involvement with the movie went beyond the two minute and thirty second sequence as rok!t collaborated with sister VFX facility Method to create stereoscopic trailers and TV spots. "We did all the graphics for the marketing campaign as well, which is a unique thing. There are not a lot of companies that have done that," he proudly tells me. "It's a nice feeling to be able to work on so many different aspects of the film."
"I'm very pleased with how it looks as a 3D experience," states Christopher Townsend, "of Stereo D's stereoscopic conversion process for Captain America: The First Avenger. "It's not a gimmicky film with things flying out at you. It's a film with a lot of interesting intricate sets with some really interesting volumes that you can just feel a part of." Townsend believes, "Ultimately, you have to make a good movie. Have a good story. We are trying to incorporate the look, the costume, the shield, and the Red Skull faces from the comic book which will hopefully satisfy the fans. Then it's a matter of trying to make a really fun movie that anyone will enjoy."

Death of children
From Wikiquote
The death of a child or of children is a profound event.
- Shinji: Kaoru said, that he loved me. I've never, felt such kindness before. He was like me. And he was like Ayanami. I liked him too. Kaoru should have survived. He was much better than I am. Kaoru should have survived, not me. He deserved to live.
Misato: No. The one who deserves to survives is the one who has the will to make it happen. He wished for death. He ignored his will to survive and chose, to die for a false hope. Your survival is not a mistake Shinji.
Shinji: Misato, how can you be so cruel.
- Neon Genesis Evangelion ep. 24, written by Hideaki Anno, Akio Satsukawa.
- That they may not become too complacent or delighted in married life, he makes them distressed by the shortcomings of their partners, or humbles them through willful offspring, or afflicts them with the want or loss of children. But, if in all these matters he is more merciful to them, he shows them by diseases and dangers how unstable and passing all mortal blessings are, that they may not be puffed up with vain glory.
- John Calvin Golden Booklet of the True Christian Life (published 1551), pg. 69.
- Aquinas and Augustus of Hippo, both proposed this extraordinary idea that babies who were unbaptised would not know heaven. They also proposed the idea of purgatory which doesn't exist in The Bible. There's absolutely no evidence for it. However, what an extraordinary brilliant coup to imagine such a thing as purgatory. That a soul needs to be prayed for, in order to go to heaven. In order to turn left when he enters the aeroplane of heaven and get a first class seat. That, he needs to be prayed for. And many hundreds, indeed over a thousand years, you'll be amazed what generous terms those prayers came at. Sometimes as little as two thirds of a year's salary. Could ensure that a dead loved one would go to heaven. And money could ensure that your baby. Your dead child, your dead uncle, your dead mother, could go to heaven. And if you were rich enough, you could have a charm tree built and monks would permanently sing prayers so that that existence in heaven for the child would go up and up and up until they were at the table of the Lord themselves.
- While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house, and suddenly a great wind came from across the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young people, and they are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"
Then Job arose, tore his robe, and shaved his head; and he fell to the ground and worshiped. And he said:
"Naked I came from my mother's womb,
And naked shall I return there.
The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away;
Blessed be the name of the Lord."
In all this Job did not sin nor charge God with wrong.

- War Doctor: I don't know.
- Moment: One day you will count them. One terrible night. Do you want to see what that will turn you into? Come on, aren't you curious?
- War Doctor: How many children there were on Gallifrey that day?
The Doctor: I have absolutely no idea.
War Doctor: How old are you now?
Eleventh Doctor: Ah, I don't know. I lose track. Twelve hundred and something, I think, unless I'm lying. I can't remember if I'm lying about my age, that's how old I am.
War Doctor: Four hundred years older than me, and in all that time you've never even wondered how many there were? You never once counted?
Eleventh Doctor: Tell me, what would be the point?
Tenth Doctor: Two point four seven billion.
War Doctor: You did count!
Tenth Doctor: You forgot? Four hundred years, is that all it takes?
Eleventh Doctor: I moved on.
Tenth Doctor: Where? Where can you be now that you can forget something like that?

- Rorshach: Existence is random. Has no pattern save what we imagine after staring at it for too long. No meaning save what we choose to impose. This rudderless world is not shaped by vague metaphysical forces. It is not God who kills the children. Not fate that butchers them or destiny that feeds them to the dogs. It's us. Only us.

- Quotes reported in Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers (1895).
- When our children die, we drop them into the unknown, shuddering with fear. We know that they go out from us, and we stand, and pity, and wonder. If we receive news that a hundred thousand dollars had been left them by some one dying, we should be thrown into an ecstasy of rejoicing; but when they have gone home to God, we stand, and mourn, and pine, and wonder at the mystery of Providence.
- Henry Ward Beecher, p. 52.
- If you want to know what love is, have a child. If you want to know what pain is, bury him.
- Giannina Braschi, (Yo-Yo Boing!) p 79.
- Better that the light cloud should fade away into heaven with the morning breath, than travail through the weary day to gather in darkness, and in storm.
- Edward Bulwer-Lytton, p. 53.
- Think of your child, then, not as dead, but as living; not as a flower that has withered, but as one that is transplanted, and touched by a Divine hand, is blooming in richer colors and sweeter shades than those of earth.
- Richard Hooker, p. 52.
- I never hear parents exclaim impatiently, "Children, you must not make so much noise," that I do not think how soon the time may come when, beside the vacant seat, those parents would give all the world, could they hear once more the ringing laughter which once so disturbed them.
- Abbott Eliot Kittredge, p. 51.
- The dying boy said: " Father, don't you weep for me; when I get to heaven I will go straight to Jesus and tell Him that ever since I can remember you have tried to lead me to Him." I would rather have my children say that of me after I am gone; or if they die before me, I would rather they should take that message to the Master than to have a monument over me reaching to the skies.
- Dwight L. Moody, p. 52.
- How can a mother's heart feel cold or weary
Knowing her dearer self safe, sheltered, warm?
How can she feel her road too dark or dreary,
Who knows her treasure sheltered from the storm?
How can she sin? Our hearts may be unheeding,
Our God forgot, our holy saints defied;
But can a mother hear her dead child pleading,
And thrust those little angel hands aside?
- Adelaide Anne Procter, p. 52.
- Let your children be as so many flowers, borrowed from God. If the flowers die or wither, thank God for a summer loan of them.
- Samuel Rutherford, p. 51.
- Dearest wife, let us go on and faint not; something of ours is in heaven besides the flesh of our exalted Saviour, and we go on after our own.
- Samuel Rutherford, p. 53.
- Ye have lost a child — nay, she is not lost to you, who is found to Christ; she is not sent away, but only sent before; like unto a star, which going out of our sight, doth not die and vanish, but shineth in another hemisphere.
- Samuel Rutherford, p. 53.

According to Gabriel Fenteany:
>Hi. I am indexing a large number of different servers. Some of the URLs
>point to http://foo.com/ but apparently the index file is not index.html but
>index.htm or default.html. Will htdig dig a site right if http://foo.com/
>uses "index.htm" and not "index.html" If it would NOT dig the site with
>the the more standard index filename, what is the switch I'd use in the
>htdig.conf Point is, I don't want to have to check what the name of the
>entry page of all these kinds of sites are.
First of all it depends upon the configuration of the HTTP server that
runs the web site you intend to index. If the server is unable to answer
a request to "http://www.foo.com/" by returning the correct index document,
blame it on the webmaster or sysadmin of that site.
ht://Dig will index just *anything* that is returned by the HTTP server
on request and that is recognized as being indexable (check the "bad_urls"
configuration option for that).
>I indexed a big list of sites, and most come up...but so far of the ones
>I've checked, only the ones that deviate from "index.html" are not showing
>up when the URL I have for them is http://foo.com/
Check out those sites with a web browser (Lynx works best for that - if you
can't get to it with Lynx, any robot will fail, too - or even request the
index document via telnet'ing to the HTTP port of that site) and have a look at
the code. ht://Dig will by no means index a side that uses JavaScript or any
other funky stuff to redirect pages.. it might also refuse those "refresh" meta
tags in some pages. HTTP "Location" headers should be of no problem though.
Remember also to have a look at "Robots" tags and the "/robots.txt" file.
If any of those forbids digging, you'll go hungry ,-)
Btw.. what do you refer to as "the more standard index filename"?
>Simply love htdig! But need help to get those last few sites.

During the final week of passenger rail service through the Valley two-year-old George Slipp took his first and, to this date only, train ride from Wolfville into Halifax. - File photo
It was on this date in 1990 that Wolfville Police Const. Blair MacMurtery had to arrest three protestors for mischief. They were blocking the railway track on the final day of passenger service in the Annapolis Valley.
There are those who say the construction of Highway 101 sealed the fate of the diesel dayliner service. Changes to the VIA Rail schedule and competing bus service were also blamed for the decline in passengers.
On Jan. 15, 1990, the last dayliner travelled through the Valley. Passenger trains had begun running back in the 1860s and were critical to bringing students to Acadia University and for military service during two wars.
Railway historian Gary Ness of Wolfville, who has a new book coming out, has said the 1990 federal government cuts to the VIA Rail operated service spelled the end for the Halifax-Yarmouth service.
Waterville resident Stuart Johnstone noted in the Berwick Register that there was a time "the trains were so loaded with passengers, man had to stand until others got off at various places. Very often, the conductor couldn't make his way through the cars to pick up fares."

Very Good!!
From Verona of Jacksonville, Florida on 9/25/2016.
We ordered these after reading other customer reviews. After the first bag was gone, we ordered six more. The texture is great, and they take on any flavor. We have made BBQ, "Chicken" salad, soup, beans, and jerky. Soy curls are a great find!
More Than What I Expected!
From Adrienne Daniels of Columbus, Ohio on 9/4/2015.
I used these in leftover black-eyed peas and it made it an entirely different dish. Love the texture and can honestly see how these tiny soy nuggets will adapt to any flavor imaginable. Awesome!
From Schmoozequeen of Crystal Beach, Ontario on 1/26/2015.
Used these in 2 vegan recipes this weekend -- Asian Orange Chic'N recipe and also in Chic'N Matzo Ball Veggie Stew. OMG -- better than chicken! Best faux animal meat texture on the market. Secret is to soak less than 10 minutes, drain and pan fry until crispy and golden brown for base in Asian, stir-fry, etc recipes. Fir soups just throw in pot at the end. Let sit overnight and drool! Love the versatility of soy curls. NO REFRIGERATION and long storage life. So convenient. Next up .. Kung Pao Chic'N and Fajitas. LOVE SOY CURLS -- to live for!!!
Love These
From C. G. McCann of Chesapeake, Virginia on 7/9/2014.
We have used Butler's Soy Curls for years now and they have continued to please us. They are organic and GMO free (according to some correspondence I had with the company) and I have used them a thousand ways. They are excellent rehydrated and mixed with miso then used in Shepherd's Pie. They can be mixed with soy sauce (or tamari if you are gluten free), and used in stir fry. I am working on a way to make veggie brats out of them right now. Love them!
Very Good!!!
From Anonymous of San Francisco, California on 12/27/2013.
This is by far one of the best vegan meat subs. I soak in hot water for 2-5 minutes depending on how much I use (even though packge suggests 10 min). good with light seasoning or soy sauce. Add to any dish or eat it alone.

If you want a simple explanation of the root cause of America's political and economic woes, this chart represents it.
As Teddy Roosevelt so famously said:
There can be no effective control of corporations while their political activity remains. To put an end to it will be neither a short nor an easy task, but it can be done … Corporate expenditures for political purposes, and especially such expenditures by public-service corporations, have supplied one of the principal sources of corruption in our political affairs.
Funds originating from corporate interests via political lobbyists, usually under the guise of campaign contributions in exchange for favorable legislation, not only distorts democracy but interferes with free market capitalism. Anyone who says otherwise, either has their hand in the cookie jar or doesn't understand that free markets reward the best businesses with the best business model.
Hat tip Tim Iacono
Sad and depressing, but its the truth.
So long as the levers remain in place, someone will use them.
Nicely said Tomare… I might use that analogy in the future.
I never ceased to be amazed how I constantly hear quotes from long-gone presidents lamenting/warning about corruption in government.
"We didn't start the fire, it's been always burnin' since the world's been turnin'…"

How much does it cost to make an Android app? According to Quora users, the price can range from $600-$150,000, depending on what you are making.
Michael Burton, Android Developer of Groupon & Digg among others, wrote: "Depends quite a bit on a variety of things, especially on the complexity of the app, but one quote for an app that takes about six weeks (low to average complexity) would be about $35,000. This is probably on the low to mid end in the range of quotes."
Andrej Kostresevic, a mobile developer, wrote: "We've created apps for $600 (one day of work, mainly customizing an open source barcode reader) to $150,000 (2 developers and 4 months of development time). So, it varies greatly, based on what you are looking for. When we are asked for the cost of an "average" app, we say $30-$40K, along with a caveat that there is no such thing as an 'average' app."
Brett Miller, of customsoftwarebypreston.com, wrote: "The very minimum price for building a simple mobile app is around $3,000. This can very greatly based on quality and features. If the price is lower than that I would be very concerned about quality of deliverable."

Does it make a woman ugly? No more than a haircut would. Sure it is an automatic -20 on my attractive meter just because they look like a tool when they do it.
Well I suppose it also depends on how often they do it. If it is something they do rarely as a form of mocking things like Jersey Shore and the like then I guess I would ignore it.
Depends on the gal.. But no matter what, she'd look much hotter without the duckface :P
They are grotesque.
I have to agree with the general consensus that it makes whoever does it look extremely stupid. Good old fashion smiles are where it's at.
Aren't they just trying to make their lips look bigger, in an attempt to look more attractive?
It's looks horrible...you just ruined the picture.

NY Times Hails Michelle at 50: She's Both 'Glamorous Mystery Woman' and 'Regular PTA Mother'
On November 4, 2006, The New York Times noticed Laura Bush's 60th birthday at the very end of a 1,000-word story on GOP campaigns on page A-6: "Mr. Bush's campaigning has been unusually light for a sitting president, and he heads to his Texas ranch on Saturday night to celebrate the 60th birthday of his wife, Laura Bush." That's 31 words.
On January 17, The New York Times noticed Michelle Obama's 50th birthday with a a huge color photograph on the top of the front page with the headline "A First Lady at 50, Finding Her Own Path." Jennifer Steinhauer's copy was so oozy about Michelle it felt like a slug was crawling across the newsprint:
WASHINGTON — She has perfected a mean forehand, is working on her yoga poses, dishes with girlfriends over brussels sprouts and dirty martinis (one olive) at the Mediterranean hotspot Zaytinya, pushes her two daughters to play two sports — one of her choosing and one of theirs — and said this week that the wonders of modern dermatology, like Botox, are in the realm of possibility for her.
Michelle Obama is in many ways the embodiment of the contemporary, urban, well-heeled middle-aged American woman. She likes to take "me time," as she did during an extra vacation week this month without family in Hawaii, setting off a tabloid furor over the state of her marriage. She frets that her older daughter, 15-year-old Malia, hangs out with the boys a grade above her. She gardens, although unlike the rest of us, she has significant weeding help.
She toys with false eyelashes.
On Saturday night, Mrs. Obama will celebrate her 50th birthday (which falls on Friday) with dancing and sweets throughout the state floor of the White House, drawing the nation's attention away from her husband, at least for an evening. Guests will sip fine American wines, consume delicate macarons and be entertained — the expectation is by Beyoncé.
The mix of Hollywood and quirky individualism (American caterers, ready yourself for the onslaught of dessert-and-cocktails-only party requests) underscores the conflicting diptych of glamorous mystery woman and regular PTA mother that defines America's first lady. Five years in, she has cobbled together a full life in Washington.
Does that offer enough overtones of an Obama-owned-and-operated press? It sounds like Valerie Jarrett wrote this for the Times, but it's possible she wouldn't have been quite as gooey.
Inside the paper, the headline on this 1,056-word story was "A First Lady Forging a Path Between Glamorous Mystery and Ordinary Life." Any politician wants to represent both sides of the contradiction, and the Times is willing to help. A bold pull quote next to another five positive color photographs boosting Michelle's image was "Behind the careful image, a zone of privacy zealously maintained."
This means Steinhauer didn't get anywhere close to Mrs. Obama for this oil slick. It wasn't kissing up for access. There was no access. The kissing up came with no apparent reward.
A critic might suggest that the media offered no such story on Laura Bush because she is humble and does not want the attention drawn to her (or her advancing age). But that critic doesn't want to ponder the opposite: that profiles like this suggest self-centeredness and a hunger for a wave of sugary press clips.
In reality, the Times and its media counterparts are simply demonstrating how they earn the characterization as tools, rags, partisan assembly lines of words and images.
Let's close with this obnoxious passage, in which the Times and a liberal historian of First Ladies trash every previous First Lady (except for Eleanor Roosevelt, seemingly trashing Hillary Clinton and Rosalynn Carter) as not very racially conscious:
While Mrs. Obama has been careful not to define herself or her role strictly through race, she has paid steadfast attention to her role as a model and mentor to minority children from poor backgrounds like her own, and has built much of her policy agenda around them.
"She is more self-determinative than prior first ladies because she very rarely allows herself to be drawn into distracting conversations," said Carl Anthony, a historian of first ladies. In addition, he said, "She speaks to a demographic pretty much ignored by the White House by all first ladies except for Eleanor Roosevelt." He cited trips Mrs. Obama has made to the Anacostia neighborhood of Washington and White House invitations she has extended to local working-class African-Americans.
Somebody just got added to Hillary's enemies list.
Earlier: WashPost also demonstrated yawning gap between Michelle Turns 50 and Laura Turns 60

Hittite is known primarily from the approximately25
30,000 cuneiform tablets or fragments of tablets preserved in the archives ofBoğazköy (the ancient Hattusa, in modern Turkey), the majority of which
the Hittite capital city, Hattusa (near the modern town of Boğazkale, formerly Boğazköy, Tur.), and various provincial centres; the majority of the tablets are from the period of the Hittite empire (c. 1400–c.1190 BC) and are concerned with religious and other subjects. Old Hittite texts, from about 1650 to 1595 BC, are preserved in copies from the empire period and are the earliest Indo-European texts
1180 BCE). Texts in Old Hittite, a form of the language used between approximately 1650 and 1500 BCE, are mostly preserved in copies made during the empire period; these texts preserve the earliest examples of an Indo-European language that have thus far been found.
Bedřich Hrozný, a Czech Orientalistan archaeologist and linguist, concluded in 1915 that Hittite was an Indo-European language because of the similarity of its endings for nouns and verbs to those of other early Indo-European languages. Hittite has provided significant information about the early Indo-European sound system and the structure of the Proto-Indo-European parent language.

At the Warrior Dash, the joy's in the journey
ROANOKE — Covered in mud from head to toe, and dripping wet, Todd Perry stood smiling Saturday among thousands of others who had either just finished or were about to begin a most unusual five-kilometer race.
For one thing, the Warrior Dash taking place Saturday and Sunday at the DFW Adventure Park isn't much of a race. Instead, it's a dash — or walk, scoot, climb or jog — across a dozen or so obstacles designed specifically to slow even the fastest movers to a crawl, one that seems custom-made to remind every participant of the fun they might have had as a kid sloshing through a creek or playing in the rain.
Message received, said Perry, 35.
"It's just awesome to get out here and get dirty and have a blast," said Perry, a financial consultant from Allen, as the mud dried all over him. "It's not something you do anymore."
The event is expected to draw about 17,000 "warriors" over two days and another 10,000 or more friends, family and curious onlookers. Registration for Sunday's runs is closed.
The dash itself is short — no more than 30 to 45 minutes for most folks, though organizers said there are always "the freaks" who insist on running full-speed from start to finish and can make it about 18 minutes.
But for the vast majority of the warriors, the course seemed custom-designed to remind them all that it's the journey — not the destination — that counts.
There were teens as young as 14 and grand-dads and groups of sisters and just about every kind of combination of teams splashing through the course Saturday.
One family came from Oklahoma City with a single thought in mind.
"Fun!" shouted Les Hardy, standing with his wife and son and a couple of others, his silver hair bright against the dark, wet brown of the mud that covered every other part of him.
Fun, indeed, works just fine as a summary of what inspired the Chicago enthusiasts who organized the first dash in 2009, said Greg Bostrom, one of the national tour's coordinators running the North Texas event Saturday.
He describes the race as "an extreme 5K obstacle course where you get to jump over fire and crawl through the mud under barbed wire. Then you get to celebrate with a day of live music, humongous turkey legs and cold beer."
Last year, there were 10 races, and this year there will be 35. The open field where post-race festivities took place looked like a cross between a meeting of the Society for Creative Anachronism and a Lebowski Fest, where Fred Flintstone costumes, Viking outfits, turkey legs and fuzzy, horned helmets were the norm.
Standing not far from a sign that read, "Mud, Sweat and Beer," 20-year Kenny Chamberlin of Plano took a break from chopping a nearby friend with a toy battle ax to admit he wasn't old enough to enjoy the big tankards of beer that seemed to be everywhere.
But stripped to the waist, with mud everywhere and big red handprints painted across his face, he said he was having plenty of fun with just the mud and sweat.
"It was a little bit easier than I thought it would be," he said. "I think they kind of talk it up a bit. But I had an advantage: I am a rock-climbing supervisor, so the cardio about killed me, but I passed everyone up on the obstacles. It's been a lot of fun."
For 36-year-old Ruth Calzada, a minister in Fort Worth, the obstacle course was more than just a gag. With the 12-foot wall she had to climb, the cargo-net bridge she had to cross, and the 30-foot-long black tunnel she had to crawl through, she said she needed all the help her friends, who called themselves Team Nicole in honor of a friend with breast cancer, were willing to give her.
"I am not OK with heights," she said. "So the wall and the cargo net, they gave me trouble. But I could hear all my teammates shouting from the ground encouraging me to keep going. It just feels so good to stand here and be able to say, 'I did it.'"
She had something besides the mud in common with most of the finishers Saturday: She's ready to do it again, and she's not sure she can wait till next year.
"I am going to be looking where I can go to do this again as soon as possible. It's fantastic."

After sampling the Miessence Organics Rejuvenating Skin Care line I agree that this is a skin care line idea for any daily regimen. Whether your skin is slightly dry or maturing with signs of age this popular skin care line helps your skin glow with radiance.

Review: Miessence Organics Anti-Aging Essentials Skin Care
When you apply the anti-aging skin care line and take in the experience, you realize almost immediately that you are experiencing something special. The cleanser, skin conditioner, and moisturizer are all pleasantly light and refreshing. It felt like getting a professional facial at home!
Organic Cleanser
Unlike most facial cleansers,the fragrance was very subtle. It was clean smelling in a natural way. I think it was due to the foundation being Aloe Vera. It was not overpowering in the slightest and was reminiscent of a luxury spa product. With a creamy consistency, similar to most cleansers, it was easy to massage onto the face without running off. It was not oily which helped it to wash off with ease.
Organic Skin Conditioner
The skin conditioner was slightly gel-like in consistency, similar to a skin firming gel, and had the mellowest smell. This is exactly how it behaved once applied to the face. Upon first applying the skin conditioner the coolness was extremely refreshing. After a few moments of massaging it gently into the skin there was a slight tingling sensation, in a good way. A little longer and I felt my facial skin tightening which was a nice surprise.
Organic Moisturizer
After the tightening sensation of the skin conditioner the organic moisturizer was very comforting. It helped relax my skin after being tightened. The scent was more pronounced than the others, but still not overpowering. It smells like a natural moisturizing lotion.
Conclusion: Miessence Organics Rejuvenating Skin Care
Designed to help rejuvenate and revitalize facial skin the Miessence Organic Rejuvenating Skin Care line is 100% natural and organic. Using the cleanser, skin conditioner, and moisturizer together is a wonderful experience that reminded me of a luxury spa facial. It was hydrating to dry skin and nourishing.
The next morning I found my skin softer and smoother than before. It was more radiant. I am extremely happy with these products and wish the samples lasted longer. The only downside of the Miessence Organic products is the price. Of course, a spa experience like this does not come cheap. At almost $50 each, it is on the expensive side of natural skin care products. However, with the estimated applications per each bottle they should each last over a month with twice daily usage.
- Facial Cleanser – 167 applications per bottle (2 pumps per application)
- Skin Conditioner – 125 applications per bottle (1 pump per application)
- Moisturizer – 84 applications per bottle (1 pump per application)
Do I like this product?
Yes. I thoroughly enjoyed using the samples of the anti-aging essentials skin care line by Miessence Organics. When they said it "revitalizes the complexion for radiant skin" they were telling the truth, at least for me. I would absolutely recommend this product line and hope to sample some of their other skin care lines.

An eastside resident kept his cool and survived unscathed Friday morning when a stranger walked into his home through an unlocked door.
Sheriff's deputies responded to a call at about 7:15 a.m. of a disturbance at a Walgreens drug store 7800 block of East Snyder Road, near North Sabino Canyon Road.
"When deputies arrived, they were informed that the suspect had just left the scene in a vehicle," Deputy Jesus Bañuelos, spokesman for the Pima County Sheriff's Department, said in a news release. "The deputies immediately started a coordinated search of the area."
A few minutes later, deputies received a call about a burglary at a home in the 7000 block of East Arrowhead Drive in the area of North Sabino Canyon and East Tanque Verde roads.
"They were advised that the homeowner locked himself in his room and called 911," Bañuelos said. "They later learned that the intruder kicked in the victim's bedroom door and had an odd conversation with him before fleeing from the home.
"He appeared to be in an altered state of mind during the encounter and had some type of drug in his system."
Deputies searched the area and found the suspect, Gerald W. Archuleta, 33, in a nearby fenced yard. He was apprehended with the help of a sheriff's department K-9.
Archuleta was taken to a local hospital for an exam before being booked into the Pima County jail on suspicion of first degree criminal trespassing and criminal damage.

Permanent Art and Design Group
XYandZ Gallery Presents: "This is Not a Place: Work by Isaac Gale & David Jensen", a multi-media installation debuting film, sculpture, and photo work from Gale and Jensen's ongoing film project for notable Eau Claire-based band, Bon Iver.
Compiled over the past year, the duo's film work traverses the wilds of April Base, the Wisconsin studio of Bon Iver's Justin Vernon. Trundling through rich forest landscapes and ephemeral, sculptural environments, the films' pure visual moments mesh with graceful digital effects, creating entangled shrines and smoke-filled twilights. At its root, the work deals with themes of space--both external and psychological. From physical installations to manipulated stills to multiple video projection environments, "This is Not a Place" will not only re-contextualize the finished pieces of Gale and Jensen's Bon Iver project, but also highlight the process and continuing evolution of it.
OPENING RECEPTION: Thursday, January 12th, 2012
7 p.m. to 10 p.m. / Free
Runs through Feb 11th
Isaac Gale is a video artist and musician based in Minneapolis, MN. A longtime staple in the music scene, Gale's talents have landed him gigs directing videos for luminaries such as Doomtree's P.O.S., Sims, Cecil Otter, Lazerbeak, Paper Tiger, and Dessa, as well as Gayngs, Bon Iver, Colin Stetson, and more. Gale is also a resident filmmaker and editor at Minneapolis creative agency, Permanent Art & Design Group, and acts as vocalist for renowned noise collective, Marijuana Deathsquads. isaacgale.com/
David Jensen is an emerging artist living and working in Minneapolis, MN. His recent work includes painting, installation, photography, and video. Jensen also spent the last year and a half art directing, producing, and directing content for Bon Iver, Colin Stetson, Herman Miller, Doomtree, and Gayngs; as well as several other exciting new artists in music and fashion. He and Gale's video "Burn it Down" for Doomtree artist Sims was an Official Music Video Selection of this past spring's SXSW 2011 Film Festival. dvdjnsn.com/

Colonoscopies by primary-care doctors safe, study finds
Though about 90 percent of colorectal cancers are preventable using high-quality colonoscopy, these cancers represent the second-leading cancer killer in the United States. More than 90 percent of the cases of colorectal cancer occur in patients 50 and over.
About colonoscopy
During a colonoscopy, a flexible tube called the colonoscope is used to view the entire inner lining of the colon and the rectum. The scope allows the doctor to see the lining of the entire rectum and colon. Tissue samples of polyps and cancers can be taken. Most polyps can be removed during the test.
About the study
"Quality and Safety of Screening Colonoscopies Performed by Primary Care Physicians with Standby Specialist Support" was funded by three grants from the National Cancer Institute. Those grants were part of a pilot project under the Community Networks Program parent grant awarded to the S.C. Cancer Disparities Community Network, and the Established Investigator Award in Cancer Prevention and Control from the Cancer Training Branch of the National Cancer Institute. Additional support was received from the University of South Carolina's Division of Health Sciences and the Center for Colon Cancer Research.

Thanks, having read back over the WiT I think I can wait a bit longer, or possibly see if Rayman: Oranges drops further in price instead. I'm not much of a platform gamer, so the repetition described in the review is likely to annoy me very quickly.
I've upgraded my broadband to get rid of the download cap (sanest decision I've made in a while), but it doesn't take effect till next month, so I might get the demo then.

Autumn and winter makeup trends are all about natural colours on the eyes - think brown, beige, taupe and peach on the eyelids. Forget mascara this season and leave your lashes bare. Red lipstick is back as a statement colour on the lips, but berry and plum shades work too. Nails are light, with nudes, beiges and peaches taking centre stage. Browns and greys are still trendy too, so don't throw away your greige yet.

14th Regiment, Illinois Infantry
United States U.S. Military Illinois Illinois Military Illinois in the Civil War 14th Regiment, Illinois Infantry
Brief History
The 14th Regiment, Illinois Infantry war organized at Jacksonville, Ill., and mustered in May 25, 1861. It mustered out at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, September 18, 1865. [1].
Companies in this Regiment with County of Origin
Men often enlisted in a company recruited in the counties where they lived though not always. After many battles, companies might be combined because so many men were killed or wounded. However if you are unsure which company your ancestor was in, try the company recruited in his county first.
The following counties of origin are taken from the Adjutant General's Report, found on the Illinois Civil War Rosters web site. Roster pages are from the same report found on the Internet Archives web site. The rosters show the men who served in each regiment, their residences, dates of enlistment and mustering out, and other remarks.
- Company A - many men from Cass County - Cass County web site -
- Company B - many men from Shelby County - Shelby County web site -

Troubled Town of Tonawanda restaurant closing, moving
Ying's Wings & Things on Eggert Road in the Town of Tonawanda, the site of several recent violent episodes, is closing later this month and moving its takeout and delivery service to a new location, owner Jimmy Ying confirmed Wednesday.
"I never thought the day would come that I would make a business decision to close my doors," Ying said in a letter dated Wednesday and sent to various news outlets.
Ying said the decision to merge with K Cafe on Niagara Falls Boulevard stems from a long-running court battle with his landlord over monthly rent.
In the letter, he recounts each step in the two-year-long battle ending with an attempt this month to move the case out of bankruptcy court to State Supreme Court, which was denied.
But Ying has also been charged by town police with criminal nuisance five times since Sept. 14 when he started renting part of the restaurant to a promoter for Saturday night parties.
A Cheektowaga man was wounded by gunfire in November in the parking lot.
"We feel very strongly, that this ruling was made because of the criminal citations that I received for hosting the parties," he wrote.
And, Ying was arrested Tuesday on a felony charge of strangulation and misdemeanor assault against one of his employees.
Ying, who was arraigned Wednesday and posted $5,000 bail, said defense lawyer John Lavin will represent him at a felony hearing scheduled for Monday. Lavin had no comment when contacted Thursday.
K Cafe is a Korean taco restaurant run by Ying's ex-wife, Kate Li, that opened in October. Ying said he and his brothers will help out at the new location but not have any ownership.

But in 1971, Atlanta Hawks GM Marty Blake picked Mexico's Raga in the 10th round and Italy's Meneghin in the 11th round, making them the first two international players selected in the NBA draft. Neither played in the NBA, but Blake, with his unique eye for talent, saw then what American basketball fans see now. The best basketball players in the world aren't always from the United States.
Thursday night at the Theater at Madison Square Garden, 20 international players were picked, an NBA record, erasing last year's mark of 14. A record eight international players were drafted in the first round.
The Detroit Pistons took Darko Milicic from Serbia and Montenegro with the second pick, the highest a European has been selected. Eight NBA players are from there, including Vlade Divac and Peja Stojakovic.
At the start of the draft, NBA commissioner David Stern announced that more than 200 countries were carrying the telecast.
ESPN broadcasters talked frequently about the international influence on the NBA.
The global presence is no secret. Hasn't been for years. The number of international players in the Association continues to grow, from five in 1993 to 29 in 1998 to 65 players from 34 countries as of March 5 of this season.
Maybe the NBA needs a name change. The WBA (World), IBA (International) or GBA (Global) might be more apropos. Basketball is creeping closer to soccer as the world's game.
At the NBA pre-draft camp, UCLA's Jason Kapono said, "I should have left UCLA after my freshman year, played in Croatia, grown a beard and changed my name to Vladimir Kaponovich. That would have been perfect."
Florida's Matt Bonner must have talked with Kapono. "I'm kind of mad at my dad for not moving to Poland or something," Bonner said.
They were half-joking, half-serious.
There is a groundswell of criticism aimed at international selections. I've heard these complaints: It's too trendy. There's an overzealous pursuit to find the next Dirk Nowitzki, the next Peja Stojakovic, the next Yao Ming.
Dick Vitale said many international players are mysteries and some teams made mistakes by drafting them. (With the amount of money and time NBA teams spend on scouting, I doubt these international players are unknowns. Just because Vitale hasn't seen them play doesn't mean they aren't good.)
And the most absurd argument is that international players are taking away spots from American-born players. Vitale hinted at this with his continuous griping about the number of international players chosen and naming college players who weren't drafted.
There's a lesson here. Why are NBA teams spanning the globe? Because there are quality players around the world, players who are fundamentally sound and have tremendous potential. Many international players don't play as many games as their American counterparts, focusing on practice and allowing players to work extensively on all aspects of their game.
How many high schoolers were taken in the first round? Just four. How many college underclassmen were taken in the first round? Eight.
How many foreign players? Eight. How many college seniors? Nine.
That sends a message, too. There's a premium on experienced and well-rounded players.

Eleutherian College, founded in 1848 as Eleutherian Institute, was the first college in the U.S. state of Indiana to admit students without regard to race or sex.[3] Its surviving main building is now a public museum and has been declared a National Historic Landmark.
Its name comes from the Greek word eleutheros which means "free". It is located in the unincorporated community of Lancaster in Jefferson County.
The college was founded by members of the Neil's Creek Abolitionist Baptist Church, with much of the organizing done by the extended Hoyt-Whipple family. Lyman Hoyt was married to Asenath Whipple Hoyt, the niece of William Whipple, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. Asenath's sister, Lucy Whipple Nelson, was a strong abolitionist and encouraged Lyman and Asenath to move to Lancaster, Indiana. Walter Hoyt, Lyman's brother, and their brother Benajah soon followed. In the 1830s-1860s, Lancaster was the center of a burgeoning abolitionist community, largely centered on the Neil's Creek Abolitionist Baptist Church. The Hoyts soon became involved in the Neil's Creek Church. Lyman Hoyt became a well-known "conductor" on the Underground Railroad, and provided shelter and supplies to runaway slaves. The Hoyts helped to establish the Eleutherian College in 1848, following the advice of Thomas Craven of Oxford, Ohio, an early advocate of an integrated educational system. In 1856 the college built a stone school house which still stands on a hill in Lancaster.[4]
Some of the Eleutherian College's trustees were active in the Underground Railroad and made Lancaster an important stop for fugitive slaves traveling from Madison on the Ohio River to Indianapolis. In 1856, the college had 18 African-American students, 10 of whom were born slaves. In 1860, two hundred students were enrolled, 50 of them African-American. This was at a time when the Indiana Constitution prohibited African-American immigration into the state.
The college and chapel building, constructed between 1854 and 1856, became a public school in 1888 and remained in use until 1938.

Obama has truly made the White House more representative of the people and in the process proven, that if we challenge our youth, they will excel. Way to go Damon, never stop dreaming.

Revision History
Multi-User Chat [1] defines a protocol for multi-user text chat in XMPP. Sometimes it is desirable for a user to automatically join a room on login. Some Jabber clients make this possible by storing the chatroom address via Bookmark Storage [2]. However, since the chatroom address is simply a Jabber Identifier (JID), it makes sense to store the address in the XMPP roster rather than in a specialized storage location. If the chatroom JID is stored in the roster and the user regularly visits the room, it also makes sense to share presence with the room. This enables the room to know when the user comes online and to send the user an invitation to join the room on login. A method for enabling that functionality is defined in this document.
If a user wants to share presence with a MUC room, it can send the room a subscription request:
<presence email@example.com' firstname.lastname@example.com' type='subscribe'/>
Note: If the user simply wishes to bookmark the room but not to share presence with it, it can simply add the room to its roster without requesting a presence subscription:
<iq type='set' firstname.lastname@example.com/pda' id='roster1'> <query xmlns='jabber:iq:roster'> <item email@example.com' </query> </iq>
Upon receiving a presence subscription request from the user, the room SHOULD approve the request and also send a subscription request to the user:
<presence email@example.com' email@example.com' type='subscribed'/>
<presence firstname.lastname@example.com' firstname.lastname@example.com' type='subscribe'/>
Alternatively, if the user completes the Registering with a Room described in XEP-0045, the room SHOULD send a subscription request to the user:
<presence email@example.com' firstname.lastname@example.com' type='subscribe'/>
The user SHOULD then approve the subscription request:
<presence firstname.lastname@example.com' email@example.com' type='subscribed'/>
Either way, the room now will receive presence updates from the user.
If the user logs in, the room will now receive presence from the user:
<presence email@example.com' email@example.com'/>
Upon receiving presence from the user, the room SHOULD send an invitation request from itself to the user:
<message email@example.com' email@example.com'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user'> <invite email@example.com'/> </x> </message>
The user's client then either presents the invitation to the user or (based on local configuration settings) automatically sends a join request to the room:
<presence email@example.com/pda' email@example.com/thirdwitch'> <x xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/muc'/> </presence>
If a MUC room or service supports the presence sharing and auto-join functionality defined herein, it SHOULD return a feature of "http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#autojoin" in response to Service Discovery [3] information requests.
To follow.
This document requires no interaction with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) [4].
The XMPP Registrar shall add the following feature to its registry of service discovery features (see <http://www.xmpp.org/registrar/disco-features.html>).
<var> <name>http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#autojoin</name> <desc>The room or service supports MUC auto-join.</desc> <doc>XEP-xxxx</doc> </var>

It's a bird, it's a plane...NO IT"S ...LUKE BRYAN ??
Luke Bryan is not only the new ACM Awards co-host, but a horse rescuer as well! Over the weekend, Luke and his buddies were boating near Franklin, Tennessee, where they spotted a horse who had fallen into a river – WSMV-TV reports. The 15-year-old horse named "Misty" tumbled 15-feet into the water, when a rain-soaked river bank gave way. "Misty's" owner, Janet McCormick, tells the news channel, "If they hadn't been going down the river in the boat, I wouldn't have known that she'd fallen in." After several hours, it took a team of a dozen people to set her free with "some straps, a tractor and a lot of manpower."

I went out to my favorite stand this morning,seen 2 Doe's pass by around 8 AM...I could not get a clean shot off on either one...Around 9 I pulled out and went to another spot I have been seeing Deer in a field...We strip dirt at work and dump it in this spot,we have a Dozer push it off into big stock piles...I was on top of this huge dirt pile and seen 2 Does a Fawn and a 8 pointer coming out of the south,the Deer all went in the same spot of the woods...About 20 minutes later I seen a different 8 point..He was a shooter in my book...He was walking north and away from me,so I ducked down and tried to get in front of him and let him pass me for a good quartering shot...Well it happened just as planned,im about 45 to 50 ft up on this dirt burm and it was time to put the smack down...He turned looking away,I drew and anchored,aimed,slow squeeze and the arrow was in flight,to bad it missed...He jumped, took a few more steps...I reloaded,aimed squeezed,,missed again.THIS HAPPENED 5 TIMES,i emptied my quiver on him...I ran out of bullets and was shrugging my shoulders in disbelief...I was literally pounding my head on the ground trying to figure out how i missed him 5 times...My feelings were hurt to be honest,I practice alot and I am a dedicated archer,I have been shooting since high school and am now 36...
Well it finally occured to me that something might be wrong with my bow..I started checking my sights,they looked good and solid...I checked my peep,it was tight...I checked my nock,I tie my own nock so it takes alot to move it...It was fine...Last thing to check was my rest,I have never had a problem with my Wisker Bisquit...This is where I found my problem,yeah rite where the shaft goes in the arm bracket...The holder part was turning up and down and i guess it made the left , right off also..I was looking at the other rest that is similar to the WB,Octane maybe? It only has 3 sets of fiber's to hold it in place...But the arm shaft that goes into the riser mount has 5 or 6 sides so this can not happen....I am on my way to purchase one,and some new broad heads LOL...
I am pleased that I did not hit that Deer...I would not want to wound it and not be able to find it...I figured,, I was guessing my yardage wrong and kept compensating for it...To become a Bow Hunter,you must become a Archer first !!!
