Welcome to the Interzone! Get ready to touch down on a different realm of domains. As an explorer, I am always combing the internet and printed materials for new ways of pioneering the web. As an aspirer, I focus on values, and my commitment of carrying a message to those who may see it. As an achiever, I don't give up on things when they get challenging, and I don't give up on my idea of making the web a better place. As a reformer, I remain unconventional in many of my design decisions while still being able to keep things "classic" when needed. As a creative, I look at fusing content with presentation in moving and innovative ways. You will find domains focusing on quantitative artwork, language, fashion, music, video, philosophy, science, blogging, social media and web technologies. The Arbasetti Domain Network is upon you!
Who said you were never going to use math outside of school? This website takes a mathematical approach to graphic and web design. The history of math is very rich, and it is helpful in understanding present design methodologies. A simple pie chart can be used in some amazingly graphical design ways. The beauty of numbers should never be underestimated. Enter mathamataca!
I am living a pretty fresh life. Not that life is always full of rainbows and unicorns. That is not the life I am talking about. I am talking about a life with problems, bad decisions, and frequent missteps. How is that fresh? It is fresh, because I got through it despite all the obvious signs of failure. I don't think anyone ever goes out in the world and says, "I am going to intentionally mess this up." This website is about what is right about being wrong in the design world, and what is wrong about being right in the same design world.
This is my original domain concept. iinphiiniitii started out in the deep recesses of the internet as my username on the then popular Yahoo! Chatrooms. Before Facebook came along, a popular way to "socialize" on the internet was using Yahoo! Chat. What better way to bring a bunch of dysfunctional people who don't like eachother together so they can share with one another the ways of their people? The sad part of the story was how Yahoo! eventually took the chat servers offline. Now if you want to talk garbage, you do it on the many social media sites available today. This website takes all the conversations I had over the years and condenses them into art and web design. Enjoy!
I think, therefore I feel, therefore I desire, therefore I behave, therefore I am. This website brings deeper thinking to a much more artistic approach.

Use msconfig (start > run > msconfig) to turn off Startup items and non-microsoft services and reboot before trying to install.

Wrapping a historic Golden Lion drivetrain in a tailored interior and 18 feet of stylish sheetmetal, this incredible Chrysler, believed to be 1 of only 118 1959 300E coupes left in existence, HAS to be one of the coolest classics on the planet! In fact, featuring an optimal mix of lethal performance and opulent luxury, the Chrysler 'letter cars' have been long regarded as some of the most revered metal Detroit has ever produced. If you're a discerning collector who's itching for a classic, big-fin MoPar that'll be the star of every show it attends, here's your ticket to greatness!
Lovingly dubbed 'bankers' hot rods', the storied 300 series confidently owned the intersection of luxury and high performance. The line's futuristic design helped mark the debut of Jet Age Detroit styling trends that would continue for several years. And, although Chrysler's aerodynamic ingenuity came in handy at Daytona Beach, where a fire breathing, 390 horsepower Hemi propelled the nearly identical 300C to a record 134 MPH, it was the firm's style quotient that sent the market in to a frenzy. Before settling in to a life of charging down multi-lane LA freeways, this decorous E was delivered to its first owner via Harger-Haldeman Chrysler in November of 1958. More recently, the car benefitted from a body-off, rotisserie restoration that was completed in late 2014. During that reboot, rust-free sheetmetal was sandblasted clean, sprayed in multiple coats of primer and dressed in wet-looking Formal Black 2-stage. That wet-sanded pigment perfectly complements triple-plated chrome, professionally refinished stainless, correct Solex glass and vivid red-bar grilles. And today, roughly 100 miles out of the shop, the car rolls as one exceptionally striking and decidedly handsome classic!
For 1959, the 300 swapped its heavy and expensive Hemi for a new, 413 cubic inch 'wedge' that was marketed as the Golden Lion V8. No slouch in the performance department, that fresh mill twisted 380 horsepower into 450 lb./ft. of sand-churning torque straight from the factory. Toss the sculpted hood and you'll find correct RB power that, in addition to being re-machined, rebuilt and restored to better-than-new condition, is authenticated by an "MR413" assembly stamp and a 1851629 casting number. Induction is handled by snazzy gold air cleaners, which are piped directly in to two Carter AFB 4-barrels. Fire is provided by a high performance points distributor, which sequences spark between a tagged Autolite generator and eight MoPar M.E.S.C. plug wires. Spent gases exit through restored, low-restriction exhaust manifolds. Cooling comes courtesy of a beefy radiator that's cinched to pliable hoses via old school squeeze clamps. Aesthetically, the engine's glossy black paint rides well between glossy, color-keyed fenders, cool "300 E" valve covers and an array of correct decals and markings. And details like Autolite horns a tagged MoPar battery and a cool Jiffy Jet washer bag provide tons of exciting eyeball appeal.
Not only was the 300E known for its big power, it was universally admired for its excellent handling. That on-track prowess was a direct result of the car's lower engine placement and precise spring location. The low-slung powerplant communicates through a correct A488 TorqueFlite, which is hooked to an 8.75-inch Chrysler axle that's fitted with Sure Grip posi and 3.31 gears. That proven drivetrain rides a familiar torsion bar/leaf spring suspension, which makes good use of correct Constant-Control power steering. At the corners of that suspension, correct Center-Plane drums ensure solid, fade-free stops. In the middle of the car's spotless, Formal Black floors, a traditional dual exhaust system employs throaty Dynomax mufflers. And all that road-worthy hardware rolls on painted steel wheels, which twist 9.00-14 BF Goodrich Silvertown whitewalls around patriotic 300 hub caps.
Take a look inside this coupe and you'll find an elegant Black and Tan interior that sports enough room to haul the whole family in comfort! High quality Gary Goers seating features correct swivel, a fold down armrest and 6-way power adjustment for the car's driver. In front of those leather thrones, a color-keyed dash hangs a new pad over pushbutton transmission controls and a signal-seeking radio that bridges the gap between a power antenna and two rear speakers. At the sides of that dash, original door panels frame factory power windows. Beneath those panels, rich carpet balances thick floor mats over modern Dynamat insulation. Opposite that rug, chrome roof bows span a new headliner. In front of the driver, a 2-tone steering wheel laps a chrome horn ring. And behind the passengers, a factory defogger fronts a fully restored trunk.

If you're a discerning gearhead who likes top-notch classics that draw crowds wherever they go, this all-American cruiser will be a significant addition to your collection!

Graves is a high-damage caster-based Marksman who is widely known for having the most powerful burst out of all the Marksmen in League of Legends due to his Q-W-R combo, comprised of Buckshot, Smoke Screen and Collateral Damage. His passive, True Grit, also makes him one of the tankiest Marksmen, and his Quick Draw ability allows him to either quickly reposition, chase or escape in team fights. He is short-ranged, however, and could easily fall into ganks if not played correctly.
Pros / Cons
Has the highest burst in the game with his Buckshot-Smoke Screen-Collateral Damage combo.
Able to reposition, escape or chase with Quick Draw.
Gets tanky stats in fights due to True Grit.
AoE damaging abilities make him great for team fights.
Can waveclear easily.
Smoke Screen is excellent for denying vision and slowing opponents in choke points.
Quick Draw allows Graves to jump over certain ledges and walls.
Lower-than-average range for a marksman.
Relies a lot of his burst combo to kill an opponent.
Mana-reliant for most of the game due to his kit.

|[JIRA] Commented: (FOR-450) Input plugins broken
|Sat, 02 Apr 2005 19:11:18 GMT
The following comment has been added to this issue: Author: Ross Gardler Created: Sat, 2 Apr 2005 1:10 PM Body: Arrrggghhhh!!! I'd missed the fact that some new i18n stuff had been inserted *before* the plugin match. The plugin match *must* go before any core matches that deal with *.xml (as you have now done). You are correct that it is only affecting the plugins using sourcetype because all other plugins are matching on something other than *.xml I've looked at your change and it looks good. I'll do more rigorous testing before closing this issue though. Can someone test the i18n functionality with this new mount position.

Nate Montana
September 12, 2010 by staff
Nate Montana, Joe Montana's son Nate Montana did not have a day that recalls the golden years of his father as quarterback. The younger Montana had the opportunity to play a great game to Notre Dame on Saturday, but things are not good, not for the backup quarterback….
The star quarterback of the Irish struggle, Dayne Crist, had an eye injury and had to leave the game against the Wolverines. Tommy Ramos and Nate Montana are enlisted to try to lead the team. And the two, so both threw interceptions. The first on freshman Tommy Ramos, who was replaced after his speech, with junior Nate Montana. After the interception of Montana, the Wolverines won with a score of 21-17.

There are lots of new styles in from Dana Bronfman Fine Jewelry. Think modern jewelry with both a social conscious and a glamorous, refined look. Dana Bronfman draws inspiration from juxtaposing the beauty of nature with the grit and glamour of New York City's industrial architecture. New pieces like the Double Diamond Open Cuff Bracelet are a minimalist jewelry lover's dream, while styles like the Holly Pendant showcase Dana's ability to incorporate both edgy and uptown elements in a single look. Each piece is created in New York City from reclaimed 18k gold, silver and diamonds.
More and more consumers are paying attention to not only who makes their purchases (small batch and handcrafted makers, please!), but also how they make it. It's not enough to assure that a favorite accessory wasn't mass produced in an overseas sweatshop by a faceless conglomerate. There is a rising tide of consumers who want [...]

Guessing Games, Imagination, and Shaker Book Winners
"Imagination has rules, but we can only guess what they are." ~Mason Cooley
I love games that take imagination. Guessing games can be fun too. So thank all of you who have played along with my mystery photos to enter my giveaway for Orchard of Hope. I'll be drawing for the two winners on Saturday, November 2, so you can get in an extra entry by commenting on this post or one of the other mystery photo posts before Saturday. Each guess or comment on a new post gets you another entry. Do you know what this one is? Remember, it's more fun if you make your guess before you read everybody else's.
I'm not quite as mysterious as I'd hoped to be with these photos.
I thought the one last Wednesday would be a real puzzler and what did all of you say? Flower. And all of you were right! However, only a few of you knew what KIND of flower. It is a passion flower. They are strange little blooms. One of Mom's sitters brought it show Mom one night this summer. I'm totally amazed by the bloom from its strange little skinny petals to its merry-go-round center.The amazing gifts of nature.
I really didn't plan to do any more mystery pictures, but since I'm not drawing for the winners of Orchard of Hope until Saturday, I said why not. You may be bored with the game, but I'm determined to stump some of you!! I probably won't. You guys are just too smart and good at figuring things out.
I did finally contact the winners of the Shaker books which was the bonus prize I offered during the Christian Fiction Scavenger Hunt. I hope if you took part in that you had fun and maybe won a prize on one of the posts. My winners are Pam of CA and Katie of FL who both chose The Believer. The third winner was Linda of CA who picked The Gifted. I do appreciate all of you telling me what you liked about the scavenger hunt and leaving comments on Lyn's guest post here on the 18th. I read every comment, but was unable to answer every one after the 400 plus message started giving my computer a headache. :) Computers with headaches are not nice to be around.

So let's see how observant you are. And I promise. This is the last mystery photo for a while.

There Has to Be a First Sentence
It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.
That's a famous first sentence from George Orwell's novel 1984 published in 1949. The sentence lets you know at once that this story is no ordinary story.
Every story has to have a first sentence. That first sentence needs to not only pull the reader into a story, but it needs to grab the writer too. I've written a lot of first sentences over the years. And rewritten them a zillion times before anyone got to crack open that book to read my story.
I'm at the first sentence stage now. My new story has been percolating in my head while I've written hundreds of other sentences that have nothing at all to do with the story I'm ready to write. Lots of sentences have spilled out of my fingers for blog and Facebook posts and newsletters. I've also been doing edits on Love Comes Home, my Rosey Corner book scheduled for publication July 2014. That meant deleting sentences and rewriting sentences and a few times writing new sentences, but the first sentence stayed the same.
The news was good.
A short and to the point sentence that probably means nothing at all to you reading it without the following sentences flowing away from it like a story river. But right now, we're just talking first sentences. The story river is a post for another day.
But yesterday a first sentence for the book I'm getting ready to write popped into my head. I haven't done my character work. I need to do more plotting. But out of the blue, the sentence showed up and so I'm hanging onto it. Whether I actually use it remains to be seen. But here it is.
When she saw the two men coming, she took the shotgun down from over the door.
What do you think? Would that make you want to read sentence two? Would you want to float out on the story river after that? It's sort of making me want to know what happens next. That's where that plotting work comes in.
But for fun here's some of the first sentences from my books.
Christmas at Harmony Hill.
Heather Worth sat propped against her washboard, listening to her husband's light snores.
Small Town Girl
It wasn't a good thing to be in love with the man your sister was going to marry.
Words Spoken True
Adriane Darcy's heart pounded as the darkness settled down around her like a heavy blanket.
The Outsider
The harsh clang of the meeting house bell shattered the peace of the night.
Scent of Lilacs
Some days David Brooke didn't know whether to count his blessings or to hide from them.
The Gifted
"Sister Jessamine, where on earth are you taking us?" Sister Annie asked as she held on to her cap while ducking under a low-hanging branch.
The Blessed
Isaac Kingston didn't think his Ella would really die.
The Believer
Ethan Boyd didn't like loud voices. Bad things happened when there were loud voices.
Those are some from my inspirational fiction books for adults. Here are some from the young adult books I wrote a long time ago.
Bridge to Courage
When I reached the beginning of the bridge which stretched away from me into the darkness, I stopped.
The Look of Eagles
I was thirteen years old when Dancer came into my world.
Secrets to Tell
Just when Emily Garnette was sure things couldn't possibly get any worse, thunder rumbled overhead.
Two of a Kind
"It won't last," Birdie Honaker whispered to herself when she spotted her aunt waiting for her at the airport. "It won't last."
Only in Sunshine
I never planned to be a champion of butterflies.
Which ones are your favorites? I was surprised that Only in Sunshine's first line seemed to grab my attention best of the YA books. Of the adult books, I liked the first line in Scent of Lilacs. But every story calls for a different approach and a different first sentence. Writing a good one is a challenge for all writers.
I found the first sentence from 1984 at this link. http://americanbookreview.org/100bestlines.asp. I haven't read all those books, but reading the first sentences was interesting. Some were very short. Some were very long. Below is an opening sentence I found compelling even though I haven't read the book and have no idea what sort of story it might tell. So I'm not recommending the book. Just the first sentence.
It was a wrong number that started it, the telephone ringing three times in the dead of night, and the voice on the other end asking for someone he was not. ~Paul Auster, City of Glass (1985)
Now it's time for me to type that first sentence for my new book and hope someday readers will find it compelling - after I rewrite it those zillion times.
Thanks for reading. As a note, I haven't heard from the three winners I picked for my Shaker books. If I don't hear from them by Tuesday midnight, I'll pick new winners. I posted the winners on my FB page last week. Here are the names again, Pam Fresno, Mary Koester, and Rose Marie Kelly. Pam, Mary or Rose Marie, if you're reading this, please leave a comment with a way for me to contact you or send me a message from my Facebook page.

One More Puzzling Picture
"Who in the world am I? Ah, that's the great puzzle." (Lewis Carroll)
So to twist the quote a bit, what in the world is it? Are you tired of mystery photos yet? I hope not. I thought I'd do one more to let you keep guessing to perhaps win that copy of the newly packaged Orchard of Hope. I think Jocie and Wes would have had fun guessing on these mystery pictures too. Maybe I'll let Jocie come up with some sort of puzzle for her Hollyhill Book of the Strange blog. Jocie likes puzzles. Did you see her post about Beatlemania. Do you remember that? I do. I never swooned or screamed, but I sure did like singing "I Want to Hold Your Hand." Not exactly the greatest song ever written, but it grabbed our attention, didn't it?
But here is the rest of the picture of last Wednesday's mystery photo. Several of you were right on the money with your caterpillar guesses. You even told me exactly what kind of caterpillar and that they were tomato horn worms that becomes a sphinx moth. The bubbles that I thought were so neat were actually deadly to the poor caterpillar according to the info Kathleen found for us. Here's the last bit to explain the bubbles. (Not sure about her source.) "Here's this handy tidbit, if needed: Find out what kind of bug you have: Is it a good bug or a bad bug? Keep a look out for little caterpillar/worm like pests and spray or squish them. The only exception that I can bring to mind would be a tomato hornworm (green caterpillar) -- if it has a bunch of bubbles on its back, it is infected by a beneficial wasp that will eliminate a few generations of the hornworms. Leave them. They are on the way out anyway."
You readers teach me so much. But now let's see what you teach me about the mystery picture up top. Oh yeah, and I loved your guesses on the last one - garden hose, cabbage leaves, lime halves, cactus leaves. You were using your imaginations. Thanks for giving it a try.
If you want to be in the drawing for a copy of Orchard of Hope, just make a guess on the mystery photo or any comment will do. If you've already guessed on one of the other photos, you'll get an extra entry for guessing on this one too. I'll pick three winners on November 1.

Can We Be Too Busy?
"It is not enough to be busy. So are the ants. The questions is: What are we busy about?" (Henry David Thoreau)
I used to have that quote on my desk calendar because I think it's a great question to ask ourselves. I get busy. Lately I am often way too busy and I have to stop and think am I busy about the right things? I don't know if you are like me or not, but when my kids were young, I was always busy then too taking care of them, making sure they got to school and to their ballgames and church. I thought when they grew up that I'd have so much time. I haven't found that extra time. It seems that somehow we fill our hours or somebody fills our hours for us. I like being busy. But there are times when I think I need to slow down and enjoy the moments.
I did some of both of that this week. I was busy, but I took time to let the grandkids who live close come spend the night. I had promised one of them that before the summer was over I'd walk with her to this creek and cliff area on my farm. She reminded me that summer was over last month, but before the winter snow started flying, we did get to take that walk. It was still warm and she did get to splash in the creek. She caught a frog. She ran down the creek like a surefooted deer. Promise kept even if it was a little later than planned.
Then I took part in the Christian Fiction Fall Scavenger Hunt. Wow!! That has been quite an experience for me. Over 1,300 people (so far) popped in here at One Writer's Journal to read Lyn Cote's guest post about the "real McCoy." And a lot of my visiters left comments. I love getting comments from you readers and I usually try to answer each comment personally, but hundreds of comments has overwhelmed me and my blogspot memory here too. It keeps telling me I have to reload the comments. So if I haven't answered your comment, it's not because I haven't read it. I did and I appreciated each and every one of them and I love that so many of you are checking out my Facebook page. I hope you'll chime in on the conversations there in the days and weeks ahead. But I may not get every comment here answered. I will have your name in the giveaway when I have the time to double check to make sure I have all the names in my hat before I do the drawing.
To top off my busy week, I had my Hometown Book Launch party for Christmas at Harmony Hill today at my local library. Here's some of the beautiful reading friends who came to hear me talk about writing my Shaker Christmas book. They ate my brownies too even if they were a little crumbly.
But it's past sundown on the week now. A new week is about to start. Time to slow down and think about what's next. And that's coming up with a new story so that somewhere down the road I can get busy again and maybe take part in another Scavenger Hunt and have another one of my book parties!!
What do you like best to be busy about?
Oh, for those of you guessing on my blog post mystery picture that I posted on Wednesday, I love your guesses. I'll reveal the rest of the picture Wednesday and let you know if you guessed right, but you have until November 1 to leave a comment on any of my blog posts other than the Scavenger Hunt one (those people have the chance to win a Shaker novel). The mystery picture comments are to perhaps win a copy of Orchard of Hope. I'm hoping I can keep all these giveaways straight. Wishing you all great luck in the many drawings in the Scavenger Hunt.

2013 Fall Christian Fiction Scavenger Hunt - Stop 17
Welcome to the 2013 Fall Scavenger Hunt! This hunt (which begins at noon Mountain Daylight Time) has 25 stops and runs October 18 through October 20, 2013. You can make the loop, reading unique content from 25 different authors, and after you complete the loop and fill out the Rafflecopter form at the final stop, you'll be in the running for the prizes. And what prizes! Two runners-up will receive all 25 books in their mailboxes, and the grand prize winner will get an iPad Mini 16GB! Besides those great prizes, many of the authors taking part are offering additional prizes. Check below to see my added prize. Collective prizes total well over $1000! What do you have to do to qualify for those prizes? Just have fun going around to all the stops, read some great never before published posts from the authors taking part and gather the clues. Great news for our international readers. The contest is open to you too!
If you've JUST discovered the hunt, you might want to start at the beginning, Stop # 1, Lisa Bergren.com. This is Stop #17. But you can also begin here, and then backtrack to the first stops to gather all the clues so you have the complete secret phrase. You'll need that to enter for the big prizes at Stop #26.
Ready? Let's go! Here at Stop 17 I'm hosting the award-winning and multi-published Lyn Cote. Lyn has visited here on One Writer's Journal in the past and I've been a guest over on her wonderful blog, Strong Women. Lyn writes contemporary romance, romantic suspense, historical romance and family sagas and has nearly 40 titles to her credit. She lives in a lake cottage in the northwoods of Wisconsin with her real life hero and four cats. Find her at her website; on Twitter or Facebook. Lyn's newest release and the book you'll have a chance to win in the Scavenger Hunt is The Baby Bequest.
Let's see what Lyn has to say about her research for this book. Welcome, Lyn. So good to have you here. Tell us about your research for The Baby Bequest.
Let's see what Lyn has to say about her research for this book. Welcome, Lyn. So good to have you here. Tell us about your research for The Baby Bequest.
Historical Research is Fun
It is always so interesting to research the language of a time period. For example, I had wanted to use the phrase "the real thing," in my latest book, The Baby Bequest, but after some research, I discovered that phrase came into use much later than when this story takes place. I don't like to use phrases that aren't historically grounded.
The Real McCoy
So I substituted "the real McCoy," and discovered that this phrase came into use because of Elijah McCoy, an African-American born in Ontario, Canada, in 1844, the son of runaway slaves. Educated in Scotland as a mechanical engineer, Elijah McCoy settled in Detroit. Unable to get a job as a mechanical engineer because of racial prejudice, he worked for the railroad as an "oiler."
You Can't Keep a Good Man Down
While working there, he invented a cup that would regulate the flow of oil onto moving parts of industrial machines, first the train engine. This invention distributed oil evenly over the engine's moving parts. He obtained a patent for this invention, which allowed trains to run continuously for long periods of time without pausing for maintenance.
The term "real McCoy" refers to Elijah's oiling device. It became so popular that people inspecting new equipment would ask if the device contained "the real McCoy."
How about that?
For more information, go to http://www.biography.com/people/elijah-mccoy-9391300
Lyn's newest release, The Baby Bequest, is available in bookstores or online at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Christianbook.com, or wherever great books are sold.

A New Mystery Picture for Book Giveway Fun
"Vision - It reaches beyond the thing that is, into the conception of what can be. Imagination gives you the picture. Vision gives you the impulse to make the picture your own." ~ Robert Collier
I love taking pictures. I got my first camera when I was twelve. It was a Christmas gift and I took as many pictures as I could afford. Back then you had to buy film and flashbulbs and then pay to have the pictures developed. I didn't have the means to keep the camera loaded all the time, but I did enjoy using up the film when I had that extra cash. Now kids can grab a camera, or more likely a phone, and take photo after photo.
Several years ago when I still had a regular film camera and was taking pictures of my Sunday school kids, they kept wanting to "see" the picture right away the way you can with the digital cameras. I did finally come into the modern age and I do enjoy the freedom of shooting all sorts of pictures without having to think about the developing costs.
"Photograph: a picture painted by the sun without instruction in art." ~Ambrose Pierce
I like sharing things I spot on my walks with you on my Facebook author page. I enjoy capturing fun times with my grandkids. And I like playing around with the photos to make mystery photos to have fun here on One Writer's Journal.
This is the mystery photo from my last blog post. You made some great and poetic guesses. Loved them all. And most of you figured out what the photo was or at least were very close. Here's the "rest of the picture." The drops are dew drops. Thanks for your guesses. You're entered in the drawing for the newly packaged Orchard of Hope. Thanks also to those of you who said you liked the cover.
Now you can guess on the new photo at the top. If you made a guess on the Knockout rose picture and decide to give the new mystery picture a guess (or say you have no idea), you will get another entry into the giveaway. Remember, it's more fun to guess first and read the comments with the other guesses after that. But you can leave any comment here between now and November 1 to enter the giveaway. I'll pick two winners on November 3.
"Everyday we should hear at least one little song, read one good poem, see one exquisite picture, and if possible, speak a few sensible words." ~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Remember to check back here on Friday, October 18 for the Christian Fiction Scavenger Hunt. My guest is going to be Lyn Cote. It is going to be fun chasing around through the blogs, reading about all the books and authors, and collecting clues. Great prizes too. Who knows? You might get a chance to read a good poem or see a great picture or hear a few sensible words. :)
And if you're in the area, you're invited to my Christmas at Harmony Hill Hometown Book Launch on Sunday, October 20th at 2:30 p.m. at the Anderson County Public Library. We'll talk books and laugh about me actually looking at Christmas stuff here way before Halloween. That has NEVER happened before! But I bought a couple of Christmas door prizes.

Mystery Picture and Orchard of Hope Giveaway
Guess to Win a Book
Let's have a little fun with another mystery picture. Leave a guess, but don't read the other comments before you guess. It's more fun that way. But leave any comment on this post or one of my other posts before the end of October to be in a drawing for a copy of Orchard of Hope. (Exception - Comments on the October 18 Scavenger Hunt post will be for the great Scavenger hunt prizes only.) I know some of you may already have the book from its first printing, but autographed books make wonderful Christmas presents or stocking stuffers. Or maybe you would like to donate a copy to your library. So make a guess or join the conversation this month and see if you can win a book. I'll pick two winners on November 1.
Orchard of Hope's new cover.
How do you like it? Jocie is at the Hollyhill Grill enjoying a strawberry shake. That has to be good! For my Hollyhill stories, I looked back at the way I remember my little town being in the 1960's. That was a time before Wal-Marts and before the main highway bypassed Main Street. Back then, if you wanted a new toaster, some nails,a prescription filled, a new dress or shoes, a loaf of bread or that strawberry shake, you went downtown on Main Street.
And a lot of people did, especially on a Saturday afternoon. All the farmers put down their tools, stopped plowing or planting or harvesting and brought the family to town. It was a time to stop on the sidewalk and talk to your neighbors because you knew everybody you met. The teenagers got to do a little flirting while sipping a soda at the drugstore soda counter. But it wasn't all good. Our schools weren't integrated until the middle of the Sixties. The fight for Civil Rights was ongoing.
I took some of all that and mixed in my characters and their imagined lives and Hollyhill had a new story to tell. Many readers have told me that one of the final scenes in that story - a revival scene in the small country church - touched their hearts. I won't tell you more because I wouldn't want to spoil the story for you if you haven't read it yet.
Great Chances to Win
So lots going on this month with books and prizes to give away. There's a Goodreads giveaway happening for Christmas at Harmony Hill. You have until November 1 on that one too. Then the fun Scavenger Hunt starts on Friday, October 18. I'll be posting one of the clues and a new posting from Lyn Cote. My post will be on a different site. There are 25 bloggers and writers taking part in the fun. Besides the main prizes of an iPad and 2 winners of all 25 newly released novels, many of the bloggers are offering prizes on their individual blogs. I'm offering a copy of one of my Shaker novels, but you have to wait until October 18 to leave a comment for that.
Meanwhile you can guess on the mystery picture and perhaps win a copy of Orchard of Hope. Remember, to make it more fun, don't read the other comments before you guess.

Scavenger Hunts and Books by the Banks
When we were kids we sometimes made a different kind of scavenger hunt. We had clues. You looked where you might be in hot water and then in the teakettle or perhaps the bathtub you found the next clue and on until at the end there was the prize. Fun games that took a little thought.
Well, I'm going to be taking part in a Christian Fiction Scavenger Hunt beginning on October 18. I've heard about these where readers chase around to all the different blogs where they can read some new and fun things about the authors or their books. Then they gather the clues and put them together for the answer. That qualifies them for the prizes. And there are some neat prizes. One is an iPad. And then a couple of people are going to get copies of all twenty-five books. On top of those prizes, a lot of the individual blogs are offering extra prizes. I'll be offering a choice of one of my Shaker books.
I've never taken part in one of these before, but I've heard they're great fun. So on October 18, not a normal blogging day for me but Scavenger Hunts are not normal times :), I'll post an article written by my guest blogger while another writer will be posting the article I sent her. And on and on. Some great writers in the mix including several writing friends, Laura Frantz, Suzanne Woods Fisher, Lyn Cote, and Judith Miller, to name a few. I hope you'll mark the date and come take part in the fun.
It's been a busy time for me this week with the edits due for my 2014 release, Love Comes Home. I had to cut over 13,000 words. My delete key stayed hot from overuse all week. I've had a few of your sweet people say you'd like to have those extra words. So here are a lot of them - was, just, and, that, said. Not too interesting so far, are they? lol. I did cut a few paragraphs here and there too, but I think the story is better for it.
I'm headed up to Cincinnati to Books by the Banks this Saturday, October 12. If you're in the area, please come out and join in the fun. And don't leave without saying hello. I'll be there somewhere! The organizers do a great job of having fun things for the kids and always have a full room of writers eager to talk to you. Here's a photo I took on the way out of Cincinnati last year. My husband was driving then. I'll be driving this year, so no pictures of the drive. But maybe I'll get a picture with some of the other writers. Always fun to meet new writing and reading friends. For more information about events that day and the authors go to Books by the Banks.
Thanks for reading. Check back Sunday. Maybe I'll do some of those mystery pictures and let you guess to enter for a chance to win a copy of the newly packaged Orchard of Hope.

Banana Croquettes, a KY Church Dinner Treat
Have you ever eaten banana croquettes? Chances are if you've been to a church dinner in Kentucky, you've had the opportunity to give them a try.
My little country church had Homecoming Day today. Once a year we invite everybody who has spiritual roots in the church to come "home" for a special service. That can be a lot of roots since our church was celebrating 201 years. In years past, we've invited former pastors back to speak to us, but since we've now had the same pastor for around thirty years, we don't have a large pool of former pastors to pick from. So the last few years my husband's Southern Gospel group, the Patriot Quartet, have been delivering the Gospel in song during the morning service.
My husband has been singing in groups for forty years. When he started singing, most all the country churches in the area had Homecomings. They'd have preaching in the morning and singing in the afternoon. Sometimes there would be four or five singing groups. That could get looonnnggg! Especially when you had three kids to make sit quietly the way I did then. Over the years, the attendance at afternoon services shrank and shrank until most churches quit having the singing services in the afternoons. Now the group generally sings in the mornings and then enjoys the church dinners. Oh, those wonderful church dinners. You can see a couple of our church youngsters loading up on desserts here and that was just one of the dessert tables!
But those dinners have changed too. Now you see a lot more dishes cooked at Kroger and the chicken nearly always is Famous Recipe or Colonel Sanders or sometimes Kroger too. But when I first got introduced to Homecoming dinners, the chicken was skillet fried before church on Sunday morning and the cakes and pies were homemade. Country cooking - yum!!
One of the dishes you could always find at a church dinner was banana croquettes. I love banana croquettes. I used to make them, but making banana croquettes is a lot of trouble and messy. Now I skip the salad dressing and just dip my banana in peanuts in an individual serving just for me. But at a church dinner you can sometimes find the real thing. Some people make a fancy salad dressing, but most people just slice the banana into sections. Sometimes lengthwise too. Then they coat the banana in salad dressing. (That's the messy part.) Last, they roll them in chopped or crushed peanuts. (More messy part.) They don't keep well, so you have to eat them all right away. I'm usually up to the challenge if I make it through the dinner line in time to snag any of them. We have a member now who always makes banana croquettes for our dinners. But today her dish got mistakenly put on the dessert table and most people missed it. But a couple of those peanut covered bananas were the perfect dessert for me.
Have you ever made or eaten banana croquettes? Been to a country church dinner? If so, what was the dish you liked best? We had some great desserts, besides those banana croquettes. One an old fashioned chess pie. That's what my son ate and he told his kids it had no food value, just sweet and good. But the value of food is not always nutrious. At a country church dinner, sometimes the food makes you remember. Like the wonderful lady gone on to celebrate homecoming in heaven now who used to always make two chess pies every homecoming day.
Ahh, the memories food can give us. Hope my grandkids will have some good memories of Goshen Homecomings when they get older. My oldest granddaughter here did try a piece of cake that she said was the best chocolate cake she'd ever eaten. So there's one good memory!

Winners, Bicycles and Birthdays
But before we head out on a new trail, we've got a few more birthday noise makers to blow and one more story to share.
Did you ever have your own bicycle? I didn't. I had a hand me down that needed tires, my inspiration for Jocie's old bike in Scent of Lilacs.Tara left this story in a comment on a post here, but I wanted to share it again.
"My best birthday memory. As a second child I spent a lot of time in hand me downs. Clothes, shoes, bicycles. My older sister had a very different style than I did, so her old blue bicycle with a banana seat was not my favorite. Every trip to town for groceries would see me at the Western Auto adjacent to the grocery store, riding around and around a little yellow BMX bike. Every year, I participated in (and rocked!) the St Judes Bike-a-thon in our tiny, tiny town and I wanted nothing more than to NEVER have to ride that hand me down blue bike again to do so. I have NO idea how many miles I logged on that little yellow bike just riding up and down the aisles until Mom was done at the grocery store. I will never forget Mom telling me to take out the trash or some equally unpleasant chore, on my birthday, no less, only to discover it was a ploy to get me to go around back where that little yellow bmx was waiting for me. I continued to ride it in those Bike-a-thons for years to come. One year, I earned enough pledge money to provide every participant with the t-shirt prize after it was all divvied up."
When I read Tara's story I was doubly touched, by her mother knowing how much she wanted the bike and finding a way to get it for her and by Tara's eagerness to raise money for St. Jude's even as a child. You may remember that my great-niece was treated for cancer at St. Jude's and one of my Facebook posts about her went viral a year or so ago. You can read that old blog post, Honk, Honk for Good News if you're interested. Anyway, when I asked Tara about using her story here, this is what she said, "Oh please go ahead and use it :) My best friend had cancer, she passed away when I was 11. She was treated at St Jude and it is still the charity that gets 99% of my charity dollars."
In November I'll be taking part in the St. Jude Walk in Louisville because Tara is right. Once you've seen how St. Jude wants to cure every child, you want to keep helping them have the money to find those cures.
But now get all those birthday noisemakers ready. It's time to announce winners. You may have already seen the names since I sent out a newsletter on Tuesday with the winners and the news that my book Words Spoken True was/is a free download. Only a few more hours for that so if you have an e-reader and haven't read my story set in 1855 Louisville with political intrigue, lots of romance and even a serial killer on the loose, you can download it today for free. (And yes, I know this is Thursday and that I'm a day late posting. I was in such a frenzy of editing out words last night I forgot to post.)
Oh yeah, back to the winners of my Christmas at Harmony Hill Giveaway Celebration. Donna V. wins 1st prize, the Shaker hand ornament and her choice of one of my books. Sue B. won 2nd prize of the quilt hanging and her choice, Christmas at Harmony Hill. Rachel L can't say she "never wins" anymore since she wins the Tea book, Melody Carlson's The Christmas Shoppe and she also picked Christmas at Harmony Hill. As as extra bonus, Peggy C is my "just because" winner. Angel Sister is one of her favorite books, so she picked Small Town Girl. (I haven't heard from Donna, so if I don't by next week, I'll pick a new winner.)
Thank you all for taking part in my giveaway fun and for sharing your birthday stories. I enjoyed reading them so much and in my very unscientific survey, I discovered surprise parties make great memories, especially if you're turning 50, that grandkids are cute blowing out candles, and that everybody loves a birthday cake with chocolate the favorite there.
Out of room for this post, but check back Sunday (or maybe Monday. lol) I'll have to celebrate Orchard of Hope being back out for readers somehow.

Journey of Man
The origins of humankind are put under the microscope of this riveting PBS documentary film in which geneticists, historians, anthropologists and other theorists try to trace the beginnings of the human race. Could the seed, in fact, have begun with a man in Africa who roamed the Earth tens of thousands of years ago? Or have scientists merely found yet another descendant of a prehistoric predecessor?

Nan Yang Lu is famous for the Manhattan Club (the best Pickup-Location in Shanghai). But around the club you also can find some nice girls bars. But not too many, only 5 around that place, but because here the business is not too bad, you also have bars with several pretty girls.
Only the Blue Sky Bar is directly at Nan Yang Lu, the other Bars are around the corner in Xi Kang Lu, but it is so near, that we did not open a new topic just for that.
the location is easy to find,
only show the taxi driver
the follwing adress:
of tong ren lu,
nan yang lu
铜仁路 南阳路口
Here you will find the first Bar (Blue Sky), than walk down the street, pass Manhattan and Big Bamboo, than turn right to find the other bars.
Shanghai Nightlife Guide checked: September 2015
If you know a new place you want us to list here, please leave a comment here:
I went to one of these bars. After I paid 500 RMB for lady's drinks and 600 RMB as a bar fine, I negotiated 1.600 RMB for taking the nice Emma - a disguised name - to my hotel. After one hour she left, because, as she kindly explained to me, it was only a short time. The bill totaled 2.700 RMB. Judy's offers more and it less pricey.
Blue Sky Bar has had a name change to Red Sky or something but the place is still a nasty little rip off joint where if you do not agree to pay for a girl's drink because you are not into that, they will just ignore you even if you are the only person in the place. In other words you have to pay to have a conversation in this so called bar.
Just stay away from all the girls bars in this area you will get ripped off one way or the other and nothing will happen ...buy a girls a drink and have a short Gfe experience at Judy's or manhatten they work hard for there money ...the GB's on this area are a huge scam try Chang yi area in pudong or 3 monkeys or cheers but pay for drinks one by one with cash and be stingy about buying for girls until you know they are genuine some are

When my heart is gripped with uncommon fear because of what I see and feel and am afraid to understand,
And when I can't contain the joy that bubbles up because I realize the gift that stands before me,
He is already there. Yesterday, today, and forever.
He is the God of Alreadies.
Before the foundation of the world, He already knew me. Before I was a thought in my parents' mind, He already had my name inscribed in the palm of His hand. And before I became a person with a heart and a body, a mind and two hands, He already knew all about me. He already knew what would make me smile, or cry, or stretch my mind beyond all that I thought was possible.
I know, I know… this is old news. It's been revealed in the Big Book thousands of years ago. But to me, on this very day, it's like a gentle summer breathe upon my sweaty face. It's life. It's sustenance. Bread for the journey.
Because if God is really the God of Alreadies, I am going to be just fine.
He already is in my future. He knows how it's going to end. He has it all figured out. Even the parts that make my head hurt when I try to line them up with the nitty-gritty of life.
And on the day He calls me home, He will already be there, waiting for me. All I will need to do is take His hand and walk on into eternity.
He is already there. He is the God of Alreadies.
This fills my heart with joy, and relief, and delight. So if you'll excuse me now, I think I'm just going to go do a little dance…

Sometimes, it feels as though the noise all around me swallows me up and I can't figure out what to cut out and what to keep in. Like I can't hear myself think–too much stimulation, too many distractions. My heart gets unsettled and I can't seem to get back to a place of peace.
Until I walk away.
From the noise, and the extras, and the superficiality, and the smiles and loud laughs.
Yet not all noise is bad.
Last year, I purchased my very first ipod. It's a tiny little thing, about the size of a postage stamp. I loaded it full of worship music and turned it on when I went for my next daily walk. There's nothing like hearing worship right in my ear, and joining in, and letting it change me. I love it. I became addicted to it. I looked forward to it every day… until one day, I forgot to charge my ipod. It went silent on me, and I had to take a silent walk. it was a bit scary after months of music blasting inbetween my ears. But since my walk is a non-negotiable part of my day, I went on a silent walk.
I heard the birds sing, the leaves rustle, the little creek flow, the deer rush away from me.
I let myself get all quiet on the inside. I opened myself up to God.
He gently filled my mind with His truth. I meditated on it. No noise to interrupt, just the gentle breeze all around me. His presence was loudest in the deepest of silences. It fed my hungry soul. It filled my empty places.
His presence joyed me with Himself.
I came home settled and energized. Hungry for more of Him. Unafraid of the quiet. Looking forward to more of it.
I still love to run with my ipod full of worship songs. But there is indeed a time for everything under the sun, and silence is one of these beautiful "things." In getting all quiet on the inside, I can hear the One who loves me perfectly. I can hear the One for whom my heart beats. And nothing beats that.

They messed with me and cheated me and acted as though nothing was wrong. They robbed me and treated me like an idiot, thinking I wouldn't see and react.
And my blood boils on the inside of me. And I want to scream. And hit someone. Hard. Or break something. How dare they? Don't they know who they are dealing with? I'll show them, I'll…
But He would not let me.
Because it's not about what I have or don't have, what I lost or gained, how I was treated or not. It's about living as an alien in the world and being an ambassador to another Country that is my Home.
So I call upon the Lord that I might not sin with my mouth, my mind or my actions; that I might represent Him well in this situation. And I feed myself with obedience instead of choosing to retaliate.
No, they really don't know who they are dealing with. They probably think that they got away with it, and that I never noticed.
My flesh hates it.
I don't want people to think I'm stupid.
But I choose to lay it all down at His feet. The anger, and the temptation for revenge, and the humiliation. I trade it all for peace with God.
So I look like a loser. But I won at the game of life. My heart is not stained. It's good enough for me.

I realize that our view of what is beautiful changes with time, and that beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder, but I think that I can safely say that all human beings were created with a thirst for beauty.
Beauty is peaceful. Beauty creates harmony.
Beauty has a way of healing us.
Which beauty makes you happy? Outside beauty? Inward beauty? Nature's beauty? Beauty of soul? Body beauty?
One way or another, we all seek beauty. And the kind of beauty we individually seek determines a lot. It has everything to do with the kind of life we will live.
Which kind of beauty are you seeking?

Posted Carelessness, Deathin
It is a quite Sunday morning on my street with birds gently waking up the neighborhood, and I imagine fathers stretching and moms changing diapers, and the smell of coffee and the giggles of children as I walk past the houses.
But not for 126.
It looks so normal, so Sunday morning-ish.
But two days ago, the son died tragically, a victim of foolishness, lack of control and despair. And yesterday, a father and a mother had to go pick a casket in which to lay his stiffened body.
Their house looks just like it does all of the other days: drawn curtains, cut grass, cars parked neatly in the driveway. But my heart hears the wailing behind those quiet windows.
And my hands feel so helpless in the face of such tragedy.
I slip a note in the mailbox and I call on the Lord for comfort.
Tomorrow, they will bury their son, and their hopes and their dreams for his future and theirs. Tomorrow they will stand in the scorching sun while they lower his body in the hole freshly dug. They will get back in their car and come back to my street, park their car neatly in the driveway, enter the house and close the door behind them. But the son won't be with them–gone forever.
It will look all so Monday-ish, normal, uneventful. And most of the street won't even know the difference.
My gut hurts through and through, and I can't find relief. How do I reach out to my neighbor in mourning when I never took time to talk to them in the normalcy of life?
Oh, I know that my prayers do count; but they are not enough.
Only love played out in the nasties of life will interrupt the cycle of indifference. He said to love my neighbor as myself.
Father, have mercy on me.

The name I give something determines its value to me. This is so real that my perception of a situation can totally change depending on the name I gave it. And its result as well.
A house fire can be the end of me or the opportunity to overcome adversity.
My birthday can be a beginning or an end.
My tendency to overeat can be a curse or a blessing in disguise because it forces me to practice self-control.
A storm can be depressing or exhilarating.
My life can be a drag or an adventure.
How are you choosing to name your events and situations?

"It's a brain tumor." That could almost feel like a death sentence.
"As I faced the terrifying surgery last year," beautiful Naomi said to me in her lovely British accent, "I figured that this was pretty much the worse thing that I would ever have to face. So I said to myself, 'What are you going to do?'"
The 20 year old stopped for a few seconds, wiping a tear out of her left eye.
"Well, I decided that I was going to bless the Lord," she simply stated.
"So when I woke up after the surgery, I blessed the Lord. And when I realized that my facial nerves were damaged for now and that my face looked different, I blessed the Lord. Every opportunity I got, I blessed the Lord."
She looked at me with her crooked smile.
"And you know what? He is amazing! He is wonderful. He is beyond my understanding. And I love Him."
Naomi, your walk with God challenges me to the core. May the Lord burn your words deep within my heart. Today, I am choosing to bless the Lord with you whatever may come.
You make me proud to belong to the family of God with you.

Everything in me wants to stay home and dig into my book. But He calls me. Like He does every day. It's that time of day when God and I meet together and talk things out; when He fills me with the strength I need; when He straightens some of the crookedness in my soul, and He infuses me with Himself.
It's the time I can't breathe without.
But today, I just don't wanna go. I am lazy. I don't wanna lace my shoes, get in my car, drive to the spot where I park and then start walking up the hill and talk with Him. It's hot; I am tired, and my book is calling my name.
But I go.
Begrudgingly, I go. I go because I know it's the right thing to do, and I go because I would feel guilty otherwise. Not very good motives, but I go anyway. I show up.
And when I get there, He is waiting for me.
He takes me deep into the woods, one little step at a time, and He gently begins to wash my mind, and my heart, and even my soul with His sweet presence.
I cannot hold on to my pout.
My tiredness is swept away as He tells me of His love for me.
I drink Him in.
I breathe Him in.
His heart is filling me. His life within awakens me. And I can't help but giggle like a school girl. I raise my hands to the sky and twirl and twirl and twirl until I am dizzy with joy.
It is well with my soul.

You've got to be kidding! How am I supposed to relax? I've got a million things to do, and there are so many pressures on me…
Are you a child of God?
Well, yes, but that's really irrelevant right now. You don't understand. I don't even know what to do first, and life is just so hectic these days…
Are you a child of God, cared for by the King of the universe?

Sonia Nadina Haynes is an emotional healer, author, artist, designer and catalyst for change in the live of her clients. Jamaican born, Sonia Nadina now resides in the historic city of Brockville, Ontario Canada. She is descended from powerful medicine women and healers.
Born with the gift of insight she took to the path of intuitive life coach, psychic/intuitive reader and workshop facilitator, twenty years ago. She is oftentimes lovingly called "Oracle". Raised by her grandmother who was a healer and shaman in their small village, her grandmother birthed babies, healed the sick and had a strong connection with the unseen world.
"Thank you Sonia for giving me a safe place to own my pain and shift from the past to the present. I highly recommend Sonia Haynes for inner child healing, chakra & shamanic work." ~ Maureen Beatty, British Columbia, Canada.
"Thank you Sonia for loving me even though I've been hiding from life. My husband and I are growing together. Thank you for saying, it takes great courage to look at one's shadow. Forgiveness is spilling into all of our hearts, and a whole new world is opening up for us!" - Christina C, Salinas, California.
This client carried a lifetime of self-loathing and shame that translated into body image issues, health challenges and substantial weight gain. She was only partially available to her loving family. Although she fought against seeing the person she could be, Christina eventually changed her perspective and changed her life. She now is open to the love her family grant her, her relationship is sublime, ( she no longer wants to let it go) and her children are flourishing. She is also on the way to a shift in her weight that diets could not give her.
Read Sonia Nadina's blogs on this website. She has authored four inspirational books available on Amazon and is an intuitive teacher, online talkshow host and a YouTuber.
Over the years, Sonia Nadina shared wisdom gained through her life experiences with her clients helping them see through the veil of unconscious. For over twenty years, focused on helping clients heal from the inside out through their emotions self, she uses her powerful insight to see into her clients' unconscious story. This helps them to truly heal. She is a meditation teacher. Sonia Nadina volunteers, teaching meditation to seniors. She believes that each of us has the ability to take charge of our health. One powerful and simple way is through meditation.
"Sonia Haynes, an intuitive healer? Yes, and so much more. Not only does she look into your body, mind and soul, she also delves deeper to help you on your journey, whatever that may be. We all have our journeys, but as she guides you and gives you insight to where you are headed, there is a peacefulness in her voice and loving guidance. Sonia is truly amazing and someone everyone should know!" - Nancy K. Chicago, Illinois.
Releasing the pain from an alcoholic past can be traumatic, but Nancy was willing which made her able to let go of the negative effects of alcoholic parents on her life. She learned that changing her mindset can not only heal herself, it will heal her children as well. She is now on the path to financial success and emotional peace.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you for how you inspire me. So blessed are you, dear Sonia, and how the heavens rejoice at the work you do." ~ J. Giles, South Australia.
This client found the path to her life purpose, helping to bring electricity to many communities in India. She owned her destiny, released fear of how it would happen and now is spirit led to love, and a passionate life.
"Sonia is an amazing healer who has helped me in many ways, guiding me in learning how to let go of what did not serve me any more and no longer needed to hang on to. Sonia is a truly gifted healer who is the real deal, whose guidance gently took to see my issues and deal with them. I have seen many healers up to now and spent hundreds if not thousands of dollars, hoping to get the help I needed and there is only one person able to do that for me and that person is Sonia Haynes. She is like no other healer you will ever meet and is unique in her way. When you are ready and want the help and guidance you seek, Sonia is the one to go to. Much gratitude to Sonia." ~ M. W., North Vancouver, BC, Canada.
This client could not see the amazing person she was due to all the negative criticism she encountered as a child from both parents. She was burdened with the responsibility of caring for a schizophrenic sibling and grew resentful about it. This created many health challenges. She reconciled her emotions and now they are great friends. It is impossible to be in love and light when there is resentment in your life.

Today Tonight electricity bill rip off: Off Peak power
Thank you Today Tonight for informing me of the latest electricity company rip off: off peak power. (Not.)
Once again TT managed to take a rather mundane topic and whip it up in a nonsensical frenzy. Result: customers even more confused and angry than before.
Now I'll have to explain what's actually going on:
Regular old Off Peak power
Off peak power to run hot water systems has been around for a long time. This is what most people will think of when off peak is mentioned.
Some facts:
- It's normally called 'Off Peak 1' or 'Off Peak 2'
- You can identify this easily on your bill (it is itemised if you have it)
- It is only connected to your hot water system
- You will not save money by switching other appliance over to run in the middle of the night. They remain on your regular tariff.
Electricity tariffs in NSW
For a while there the reporter started to talk facts by putting the different tariff structures on the screen. But that just confuses the issue even more because they were talking about it as if everyone has the same rates.
In NSW there are three electricity network companies. Each company covers a particular area of the state. Tariffs are regulated according to these areas. So, tariff structure vary depending on where you live.
New tariff structures (time-of-use or 'smart' metering)
The first half of the TT piece was thoroughly misleading, because many customers aleady have new 'smart meters' fitted. Smart meters are not actually that smart, but they do allow for different tariffs at different times of the day (see an example bill on the left).
Some facts:
- Smart metering can be identified on your bill by the words 'Power Smart,' 'TOU' for 'time-of-use' or similar
- It involves three distinct tariffs: off peak, should and peak (see above)
- You will save significant amounts of money by turning appliances on after 10pm as opposed to using them in the afternoon on weekdays.
Combined tariff structures
To add another layer of complexity: you can in fact have both 'regular off peak' and the new 'time-of-use' style metering on the one bill! Again, to uncover this all you need to do is have a look at your bill.
If you see "Off Peak 1" listed separately to "Off Peak," "Shoulder" and "Peak," then you have this situation.
The benefits of this include:
- You know exactly how much of your energy is going to hot water (because it is the only consumption on "Off Peak 1"
- Off Peak 1 tariffs are actually cheaper than Off Peak under the smart meter regime.
I hope that clarifies this issue a little.
This article was written in response to a story titled "Electricity Rip Off" aired on Today Tonight in NSW this evening (4th April 2011).

96 - 108 Final
Kings cool off Trail BlazersDec 24, 2012 - 6:06 AM Sacramento, CA (Sports Network) - In the wake of DeMarcus Cousins' indefinite suspension, the Kings responded with an impressive performance.
Marcus Thornton led six Sacramento players in double figures with 22 points and the Kings ended the Portland Trail Blazers' five-game winning streak with a 108-96 victory on Sunday.
Without Cousins, who was suspended for conduct detrimental to the team on Saturday, and an injured Tyreke Evans, the Kings recorded a season-best 31 assists.
"Everybody was into the game, cheering for one another," said Thornton. "That's what we need. Guys played very unselfish tonight."
John Salmons posted 15 points, seven rebounds and seven assists, while Travis Outlaw and Isaiah Thomas contributed 15 and 11 points, respectively, in the win.
LaMarcus Aldridge and J.J. Hickson each contributed double-doubles, but Portland was denied a chance at matching its longest winning streak since a six-game run in February of last season.
Aldridge tallied 22 points and 11 rebounds, while Hickson totaled 14 points and 11 boards.
The Trail Blazers stayed within striking distance for most of the first three quarters until back-to-back shots from Aaron Brooks at the end of third gave Sacramento an 80-71 advantage going into the fourth.
His pull up jumper and triple sparked a 12-0 Kings run to give them a comfortable 16-point cushion that the Blazers could not overcome.
"(The Kings) shot the ball very well in the second half and we couldn't keep up with them," said Portland coach Terry Stotts.
Portland held a 27-21 lead at the conclusion of the first period, but Sacramento responded with a strong second quarter to grab the momentum.
After the Trail Blazers scored the first two baskets of the quarter, the Kings ripped off an 28-7 run to grab a 48-38 lead.
Game Notes
The Kings improved to 8-1 on the season when leading after three quarters ... Hickson posted a double-double for the eighth straight game ... Portland was without Wesley Matthews, who aggravated a hip injury in Saturday's night win over Phoenix ... Damian Lillard tallied 15 points and seven assists for Portland.

Act Of Valor News
February 27, 2012 by staff
Act Of Valor News, Military drama "Act of Valor" claimed the No. 1 spot on movie box office charts, beating expectations with an estimated $24.7 million in U.S. and Canadian ticket sales during another busy weekend at theaters.
Tyler Perry's new drama, "Good Deeds," finished in second place with $16.0 million, according to studio estimates released on Sunday as Hollywood prepared for the Academy Awards.
"Act of Valor" stars real-life, active-duty U.S. Navy SEALs alongside professional actors in a fictional story about a mission to rescue a kidnapped CIA agent. Some scenes used live fire rather than visual effects.
Audiences liked the movie, awarding an "A" grade in polling by survey firm CinemaScore and providing high marks in studio exit polls, said Kyle Davies, president of worldwide theatrical distribution for Relativity Media, the independent studio that released the film. "You don't get a consistent reaction like that unless the movie delivers," he said.
The movie attracted a 71 percent male audience, and 60 percent of filmgoers were older than age 25, Relativity said. The studio acquired the film for $13 million and had projected opening weekend sales of up to $17 million.
Perry's "Good Deeds" finished in line with projections from distributor Lions Gate Entertainment. In the film, Perry plays a CEO controlled by his domineering mother until a friendship with a woman on the office cleaning crew inspires him to rebel.
