Working to make Summit County a Better Place to Live for Ourselves and Future Generations
Public Roundtable:Local solutions for accessible & affordable health care
January 14, 7-9 pm at the Summit Community and Senior Center.
Moderators: Howard Hallman and Dr. Rosanne Shaw
Attendees included Jeff Gorley, DDS; Brad O'Neil, Roaring Fork Community Health Plan/Van Gilder Insurance; Chris Johns, retired United Benefits advisor; Rhonda Koehn, High Country Health Care; Scott Vargo, Summit County government; Barbara Davis, St. Anthony Summit Medical Center; Justin Pollack, ND; David Gray, MD; Bernie Zurbriggen, Rob Waterman, Summit Chamber; Tom (Kathy) Castrigno, Mountain Rose Acupuncture, Shirley Willis, Sharon Russell.
Howard Hallman outlined the evening's goals: a discussion aimed toward the underserved residents in Summit County . How can a small community like Summit County establish greater access to healthcare and health maintenance programs? Can a greater affordability and more choice be made available? The present system is not considered consumer-friendly, and those without insurance do not have access to physician-monitored wellness programs and regular check-ups. Out of cash flow necessity, the non or under-insured adhere to an illness-based regime vs. a wellness-based regime. The entire system is based on rewards for sickness vs. wellness.
Programs emphasizing wellness are increasing in Summit County. Scott Vargo, assistant county manager, explained their self-insured program My Care. The County has 900 participants (employees & dependents), and a health-risk appraisal is required. The health reimbursement account pays back employees according to such factors as BMI, whether or not they smoke, blood pressure, med maintenance, etc. The aim is to catch medical issues before they escalate and to treat existing issues. The program does not incur insurance administrative costs.
Discussion touched on the following:
In the United States , the legal system and insurance companies contribute to the stagnant attitude toward change in our healthcare system. Physicians adjust their "Standard of Care" policies to avoid being sued should there be less than a good outcome. There appears to be little transparency in fee for service as well as quality outcomes.
In describing the Roaring Fork Valley Health Plan model, Brad O'Neill spoke about instances when small businesses and individuals tap into the power of localized purchasing health packages.
A Summit County Chamber of Commerce health plan initiative met with complexity and resistance. Those who assume they have control over their own plan do not want to change.
Premiums are typically dependent on risk assessments based on for-profit companies. Physicians are reimbursed for taking care of sick people, not promoting wellness. There are only four major insurance carriers left in the United States. There is a strong need for greater competition and transparency to price shop. Typically self-insured plans depend on a minimum 10,000 lives with a stop-loss provision.
What is the role of a patient advocate?
Publication of usual and customary fees for office visits
Diagnostic tests, inpatient/outpatient procedure
Gunnison County public health voucher system.
Our Future Summit plans to conduct future gatherings to discuss local solutions for accessible & affordable healthcare. Those interested in being part of the conversation may contact OFS executive director Sandy Briggs or president, Howard Hallman.
Our Future Summit is a "quality of life" institution dedicated to creating a better Summit County by providing monthly opportunities for informed discussion on topics of community interest.
Our Future Summit is a program of The Greenlands Reserve

Word Witch
THE Ransack OF THE Promise WITCH by Doreen Valiente
Extraordinarily ample, the nose of the word witch is a uncertainty on which a moment ago any two formation can be found to establish. The most frequent explanation is that it is akin to the word thoughtful, and that witchcraft thus means The Command somebody to of the Shrewd.
It is at length said that Gerald Gardner originated this nose. Until now, this is artificial, as it appears in Hugh Ross Williamson's book, The Dash and the Sword, put the lid on published in 1947, beforehand any of Gerald Gardner's books on witchcraft. But is this the modest derivation?
Not according to Professor Jeffrey Russell, who gives an add-on on this uncertainty in his book A Pick up of Witchcraft (Thames & Hudson, London, 1980).
Professor Russell rejects any occupation with the Old English word witan, meaning to know, as he also does with the Old English wican, to bend. In his opinion, the real origin comes from the Indo-European word weik, which has a worldwide occupation with religion and magic. From this very ancient root-word came in turn, in the midst of other stuff, a word wikk, meaning magic and sorcery, and this finally shaped the Old English wicca, a male witch, wicce, a female witch, and the verb wiccian, to bewitch or work witchcraft.
It chutzpah be seen from the stuck-up that "Wicca" does not mean "witchcraft" and never did, in animosity of its inclusive modern use. So how did this custom originate? In his biography, Gerald Gardner: Witch, it describes his initiation in "Old Dorothy's"
construction, and says, 'It was part way undeviating behind the word Wica was put the lid on mentioned: "and I after that knew that that which I had doubt burnt out hundreds of get-up-and-go ago level survived."' It chutzpah be seen that at this time Gerald didn't even know how to spell the word. Its precise spelling is as stuck-up. Nor, unfortunately, does this plan lapse in what context the word was hand-me-down. It strength possess been that Old Dorothy's coven was barely proclaiming Gerald a male witch, in which skin this would possess been an accurate use of the word.
So everywhere did Gerald get the inference that "Wicca" held witchcraft? I would match to advance a piece together of my own. I condition bolster that this is discharge a piece together, and I may be favoritism. But I deduct that this inference originated from his reading of a book which I know that he furious, namely An Almanac of Occultism by Lewis Spence. This very lush work of suggestion put the lid on appeared in 1920, according to the move up of it in the bibliography at the end of Gerald's book, Witchcraft In our time. It has really been re-issued by Bracken Books under the place of The Almanac of the Occult. The enthrall referring to witchcraft begins: "Witchcraft: (from Saxon Wicca, a short way around of witega, a vision or sorcerer)." This possibly will possess been read and misunderstood to mean that "Wicca" held witchcraft, and this false impression has been carried on undeviating the position of modern witches ever for example.
It has to be designed, of course, that the word Wicca has its uses to define the hand over revival, above all in the USA, everywhere a degree of acquaintances using this word possess gained trial believe as religious bodies. Immediate, until now, I assist the object The Old Religion, which is the English equivalent of the Italian object hand-me-down by the followers of Aradia, namely La Vecchia Religione. (See Charles Godfrey Leland's book, Aradia: or the Gospel of the Witches, put the lid on published in
1899.) About, hand over is a heading in witchcraft circles to the effect that the pardon why the revolutionary topic of this book is so unprepared is that old Gerald bought up all the copies he possibly will find and dead them. Whether hand over is any truth in this or not, I cannot say.)
In animosity of Professor Russell's opinion, as quoted stuck-up, hand over is an important nose of the word witch that may possibly be well brought-up of understanding. This may be found in A Short-lived Etymological Dictionary of the English Language by the Rev. Walter W Skeat (Clarendon Hassle, Oxford, 1901). This book discusses the above-mentioned derivations from wicca, wicce, etc., and after that in turn connects these old words with the Norwegian vikja, which means paramount 'to turn parenthesis and secondly 'to expensive prohibited. Accordingly, speculates the Rev. Skeat, the word witch plausibly held 'averter'.
He also mentions that the Anglo-Saxon word witega, a vision or seer, comes from the Anglo-Saxon witan, to scene, which he says is 'cognate with witan, to know.'. We possess seen that Lewis Spence regarded witega as the origin of wicca.
So who is right? In animosity of all claims, it seems to me that it ruins a bits and pieces of opinion. One thing we do know is that the word came to Britain with the Saxons, who at the time of their pending on these shoreline were pagans. I deduct that to them, the word witch (or both of its forerunners they hand-me-down), did not certainly possess any uncomplimentary meaning. A witch was a seer, a knower, an averter of evil. The word unattached took on a glum meaning with the coming of Christianity, which taught that all the gods of the heathen were devils. So qualities who clung o the old ways and the Old Religion was a devil worshipper. And annually, speak Halloween, we level see the enormously old charges someone completed in the enormously old spirit of excess. Isn't it sad that these good folk haven't learnt at all for example the Gloomy Ages?

If you need some extra money to make a big purchase, renovate your house, or pay the balance on a high interest credit card, a HELOC (home equity line of credit) may be just what you're looking for. A HELOC is a kind of revolving credit secured by the equity in your home. This open-ended loan may be be charged up or paid down over the set term of the loan. The interest rate changes (usually every month).
With a HELOC, your lender will approve you for a specific amount of credit - the maximum amount you can borrow at any given time with the agreement. In determining your credit limit, your salary, outstanding debt, credit status and additional financial circumstances will be reviewed. You will be required to have a home appraisal to assess your home's up-to-date market value. Your home's up-to-date value, subtracted from your remaining mortgage balance helps to determine your specific credit limit.

The South Beach Diet creator Dr. Arthur Agatston MD and Joseph Signorile PhD bring you the new Supercharged South Beach Diet.
The original South Beach Diet was created to help dieters change the way that they eat, with the goal of safe and effective rapid weight loss. The principles from the original diet – good carbs, healthy fats, lean proteins, and low fat dairy products – have been expanded upon in South Beach Diet Supercharged, with a new focus on fitness too.
The new focus on exercise takes an "ease into it" approach: primarily walking, with some helpful core muscle exercises to keep the body strong and the tummy taut.
Readers will find plenty of new content in this version of South Beach, with new meals for phases 1 and 2 of the diet, and several dozen new recipes that are South Beach healthy.
Diet Basics:
- Bad Carbs Out, Good Carbs In! Carbs are not totally forbidden, but refined carbs are generally a no-no on this plan. Certain sweets are fine, but one again these will be the unrefined type of sugar carbs.
- Moderate Exercise This is new to the diet, and offers a gentle and simple way to ease into the whole concept of regular exercise. Walking is a big part of the plan, but it's not overdone at 20 minutes every other day. Some core muscle toning on the alternate days and the exercise plan is complete.
- Preparing Recipes At Home While this plan will allow you plenty of options for when you are out at restaurants, there are a number of fairly easy prep meals here including Eggs Frijoles, Moroccan lemon chicken, and even desserts like maple-almond flan.
Who It's Good For
This is a good diet for carb addicts who feel like they just can't do the typical low carb diet. You'll still get plenty of filling and satisfying carbs in this plan, they are the healthy carbs and are fine to eat. If you want a diet plan that does not ask you to commit to a major exercise plan, you will like this plan since it gives you exercise in small doses.
Who It's Not Good For
The plan might not suit anyone who is looking for a paint by numbers type diet. You won't be doing much in the way of calorie counting, fat gram counting, or carb counting here. The plan does need you to follow some simple menus and rules, but it may not be rigid enough for some.

BIT Technology Briefing
BIT's first internal technology briefing was held back in July and just yesterday we conducted the second one; allowing staff with an opportunity to share and discuss the different technologies that provide cost savings, structure and success for state government and ultimately the citizens of South Dakota. Staff joined the meeting in person, on the phone or through our statewide video system, the Digital Dakota Network (DDN).
One of our top security experts from the Division of Telecommunications discussed the Netmotion VPN Client Solution. NetMotion is a mobile VPN solution that the State of South Dakota has standardized for all clients who need remote access to the state government network, but cannot use Citrix or those who are mobile clients that need network persistence between different networks. We currently have over 240 users of the system from the Highway Patrol, Division of Criminal Investigation, Legislative Research Council, Departments of Social Services and Transportation and staff here in BIT. NetMotion is unique from all other VPN solutions in that it allows mobile use on different types of networks (Wireless, 3G, 4G, LTE, Wired, etc.). Also, since it was first developed for the law enforcement industry, it complies and meets the highest of federal security standards.
Staff from the Data Center then moved on to providing information on the recent improvements to the state's backup and recovery processes. The Data Center initiated a disaster recovery and business continuity project in the spring of this year which included an assessment of our current environment and identification of areas of improvement. The presentation covered highlights of the assessment and the mitigation strategies for the future of disaster recovery in the state information and technology sector.
Development staff shared with the group a presentation on responsive website design and provided an overview of the templates that had been created over the summer. Responsive web design is a method of using multiple style sheets to manipulate the appearance of a web application for a wide range of devices. In some situations, it is an easy alternative to a mobile app.
South Dakota Public Broadcasting (SDPB) ended the session with a discussion of their streaming services and what the future of that rate card would look like for agencies as there is now a fee involved. They also talked about an opportunity through the national Public Broadcasting Service on a new (and free) Content Management System they will use for a newly developed SDPB website. Plans are also in place to develop a mobile app for iOS and Android devices as user activity has increased on smartphones, tablets and the like.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Carolina Panthers running back Jonathan Stewart will miss at least the first six weeks of the season while he recovers from an ankle injury.
Coach Ron Rivera said after practice Tuesday that Stewart was placed on the physically unable to perform list.
The team also put guard Edmund Kugbila, its fourth-round draft pick, on injured reserve with a knee injury and waived injured defensive tackle Frank Kearse and wide receiver Joe Adams, Carolina's fourth-round pick in 2012. Adams and Kearse will go back on injured reserve if they clear waivers.

This pressure spray inhaler was used during the 1918 influenza pandemic in attempts to limit the spread of the disease by spraying people's throats with a mist of zinc sulphate solution.
The device is a pressure vessel with a spray nozzle. The vessel was heated by a primus stove beneath it. A mug holding the zinc sulphate solution was held in the clip mounting at the side, and a tubular sighting glass for monitoring the level of liquid in the vessel would also have been mounted at the side.
Zinc sulphate sprays
Zinc sulphate sprays were used in many New Zealand towns and cities during the 1918 influenza pandemic. The spray was believed to be antiseptic, but it was ineffective against the influenza virus, and may in the long run have done more harm than good by damaging throat and lung tissue.
This inhaler was manufactured by the Dunedin engineering firm of A. T. Burt, Ltd, probably in the early 1900s. It is possibly one of the four that were made for the newly established Department of Public Health, which stationed one each in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, and Dunedin. During the pandemic, smaller inhalers were mass-produced by the Railways Department.
1918 influenza pandemic
The 1918 influenza pandemic is New Zealand's worst natural disaster. It killed as estimated 8251 people over a period of about a month from mid-October 1918. A high proportion of the dead were young adults, with Mäori suffering especially severe losses.

Cold Sesame Noodles
READY IN: 15mins
Recipe by TooAllergic
When I was a kid I loved those sticky, Thai noodles that dripped of peanut butter and sesame oil. My new-ish allergy to peanuts and wheat made me work for a close replacement. This is it. **Slurp** (Chill-time not included).
Top Review by Beth roarsback
If peanuts are an issue, try tahini.
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 (7 ounce) package rice noodles
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 3 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons water (add more if too thick)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
- hot chili paste (Sriracha, to taste)
- 2 teaspoons dark sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons soy nut butter
- 1⁄2 cup scallion, chopped
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds, toasted
Directions See How It's Made
- Boil the noodles and cool down right away. I like the vermicelli -- and it cooks in less than 3 minutes. Place in a non-reactive bowl.
- Heat the vegetable oil and saute the ginger for just 1 minute (until you can smell it). Over low heat, add the next 5 ingredients and bring just to a simmer. Remove from heat.
- Whisk in the sesame oil and butter. Pour over cold noodles, add the green onions and stir. Refridgerate for 2 hours to chill completely.
- Serve chilled with toasted sesame seeds on top.

Lance Babb II has offers from Air Force, New Mexico, Wyoming and several other Division 1 universities and still has a 12th grade season of football to participate in. The 6-1 195 pound senior is looking to reel in some bigger scholarships with his performance this year.
Young Point-Guard has Unique Skill Set
Today, the NBA showcases plenty of ball-dominant point-guards who focus on gettting their own shot off and have a "score first" type of mentality. A lost art in today's game of basketball is a point-guard who truly knows how to facilitate and circulate an offense. Teddy Parham Jr. is the epitomy of a true point-guard.
The 17-year-old from Notre Dame High School (Sherman Oaks, CA) has an understanding of the game that stands out from most of his peers.
"A great point-guard is someone who makes sure his team plays with great chemistry and doesn't fall asleep on defense or offense and makes sure everything is organized," Parham says.
Teddy has an uncanny ability to anticipate things before they happen and is always making the smart play. He has an ability to be a true floor general, which is a talent few kids posses.
He passes the ball very well, gets others involved, and controls the tempo of the game.
Currently, Teddy is playing with his summer AAU basketball squad "Cal Supreme" and is looking to head into his senior year with some momentum.
Chris Paul Epitomizes Disappointment
Like an early playoff exit, Chris Paul is gone from Los Angeles. Using the opt-out clause in his contract, the 12-year veteran gave the order to harbor a trade to the Houston Rockets.
There is no denying CP3's natural talent and point-guard skills, but overall, his tenure in LA will be remembered as disappointing.
Sure, Paul has been a vital part in turning around a historically porous franchise helping the Clippers go from a team never to win more that 47 games in the regular season to averaging 52 wins during his 6-year stint. However, he was never able to get Los Angeles out of the 2nd round of the NBA playoffs and was inconsistent in games that mattered most.
In a 2014 playoff game, the Los Angeles Clippers needed to hold onto the ball to sew-up a 3-2 series lead over the Thunder. Unfortunately Paul turned the ball over giving OKC life and a chance to take the lead in the game.
After a timeout, the Thunder inbounded the ball to Russel Westbrook where he dribbled to the top of the key, raised up for a shot, and was fouled by guess who? Chris Paul! This gave Westbrook three free throws (he made them all) and a 105-104 lead with 6.4 left in the game.
In an anti-climatic finish, Paul got the final touch of the game and drove baseline before turning the basketball over in the waning moments of the game (SEE VIDEO BELOW). This was the turning point of what "could have" been in Los Angeles.
In an era that it is accepted to have a "can't be em' join em" mentality, Paul heads to Houston to join a team that trailed and then beat the Clippers after being down 3-1 in 2015 Western Conference Semifinals. To Clippers fans, the irony adds insult to injury, and to the cynical, solace in cliche to underachievement.
Paul was a stud in the regular season making 5 all-star appearances as a Clipper as well as the same number of All-NBA 1st Team Defensive selections and was an All-NBA First Teamer three times during that span. This production warranted a contract that paid him over 22 million per year. Clippers fans now ask if that money was really worth it?
Although CP3 is great at creating highlights, he simply has not delivered when facing adversity in playoffs and legacy defining moments.
BallIsLife Puts on a Spectacle
The heavily popular BallIsLife basketball organization held their annual All-American showcase game earlier this month at Long Beach City College. It was an event that featured twenty-six of the best high-school seniors in the nation as they competed in a slam-dunk contest , 3-Point contest and 40 minute full length game.
An eventful night saw Isaiah Washington (St. Raymond High School, Bronx, NY) take home the 3-point contest while Jalen Hands (Foothills Christian High School, San Diego, CA) awed the crowd with amazing creativity to win the slam-dunk contest. The game itself was nothing but a show, take a look!
Michael Conlan Strives for Greatness
History says that Michael Conlan is the best amateur fighter ever to come out of the country of Ireland. After an impressive debut victory in his first pro fight, Conlan is determined to take his game to another level and looks to continue to re-write the history books.
The 25-year-old super-bantamweight fighter from Belfast, Northern Ireland bursted onto the boxing scene by winning a bronze medal at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. Conan carried that medal momentum into the 2015 World Championships and proceeded to win the gold medal at Doha.
After great success as an amateur, the Irish sensation was signed to Bob Arum's promotional boxing group, Top Rank. Last March, he competed in his first professional fight and won by technical knockout in the 3rd round over Tim Ibarra.
Conlan has a unique ability to move in the ring and uses his athleticism and quickness to excel as a boxer. He also has solid power for a super-bantamweight but says that he needs to improve on his inside game.
"My short-term goal is to become a world champion…as far as long-term goals, I want to become a three-weight world champion and the best fighter ever from Ireland," Conlan expressed.
The Mexican Heavyweight
Chris "The Nightmare" Arreola has been a professional heavyweight boxer since 2003 and has a record of 36-5-1 with 31 wins coming by way of knockout. He has been in championship fights against some of the best in the game but has not been able to get over the hump and win a world title belt.
In 2009, Arreola challenged Vitali Klitschko (37-2, 36 KOs) for the WBC belt in Los Angeles, California amongst a crowd of 18,000. The Mexican boxer made an asserted effort to come forward in the early going and force pressure on Klitschko by throwing big shot after big shot. Unfortunately, most of his punches were blocked as Klitschko (6'7″) went on the defensive and used his height to control the range of action. Once it was known that Arreola could not hurt the Ukrainian, Klitschko began to line his big right hand up and fired it off frequently. Arreola took substantial punishment throughout the fight, and eventually retired on his stool in the 10th round as Klitschko was awarded the TKO victory.
Arreola got another chance at the belt last July as he faced the dangerous Deontay Wilder (36-0, 35 KOs) in a 12-round title bout at the Legacy Arena in Birmingham, Alabama. The fight was a mismatch all the way as Wilder controlled the pace with his superior athleticism and hand-speed. Arreola was knocked down in the 4th round after being unable to sustain a barage of punches and retired in his corner before the start of the 8th round.
Nevertheless, Arreola has had a solid career and has been one of the few Mexicans to put his stamp on the Heavyweight division.
"The most memorable moment of my career was when I beat Damien Wills. I guess it was because he was undefeated and I was undefeated and it was a big battle for California and we were both Heavyweights on the rise," Arreola says.
The Voice of the USC Trojans
Pete Arbogast is one of the best radio announcers in the country. Over the years he has broadcasted play-by-play for the Los Angeles Clippers, Cincinnati Bengals, as well as professional baseball and ice hockey. Arbogast currently works radio for the University of Southern California athletics and is most recognized for his play-by-play of Trojans football.
A local man from John Marshall High School and a former Trojan himself, Arbogast always aspired to be in sports media. When working his way up the broadcast ranks, he had trouble making it to primetime but with a little advice from some great people, he found a way to make it his own.
"Vin Scully told me that the real trick is to be yourself…if you have a good personality or a story to tell, then you will always be able to be entertaining and convey things in a personable way," Arbogast learned.

so good, but I need more, please
| regbride12 chapter 5 . 5/18/2014
OMG so freakin perfect! :) please more soon! So cute just love this again so much.
| nellysh chapter 4 . 4/17/2014
very good
| idearlylovealaugh chapter 3 . 4/16/2014
This was a sweet chapter (if you can call a chapter involving a lot of sick "sweet"!). I'm glad they were able to talk it out. Having a baby brings up so many crazy emotional responses - happiness, fear, anxiety, you name it! I like the line about how they're in it together, as always. Hopefully Hermione's morning sickness doesn't last too long!
| regbride12 chapter 4 . 4/15/2014
LOL THAT WAS AWESOME! Only R/Hr could argue about their son's name eh? ;) I can see though Victor Weasley? Yeah no Lol...tbh that would have been cruel. Lol but he was Ron's favorite Quidditch player until that year LOL
LOVE THIS STORY :) update more soon please!
| regbride12 chapter 3 . 4/15/2014
Ok explains ALOT...Ron almost lost his wife and daughter...of course he will be worried a lot now. Poor guy- he loves his lil family more than life!
| regbride12 chapter 2 . 4/15/2014
Awwww poor Ron! Yeah wrong reaction Ron- had I been Hermione I would have sent more than canaries-it would have been vultures! ;)
| regbride12 chapter 1 . 4/15/2014
Awwww Ron to be daddy again ;) Hermione and Ron: cutest parents ever :)
| Guest chapter 4 . 4/12/2014
You are such an entertaining writer, and you hit just the right notes with Ron and Hermione. I could see Hermione thinking Ron was being childish in not liking the name Victor. (But of course, if Ron had suggested Lavender as a name for Rose she would have had a melt-down!) And I love how Ron is so totally ignorant about anything muggle. Thanks for sharing.
| Bookie and Novel-chan chapter 4 . 4/11/2014
This is so sweet! I really love the fact that even after many years, arguments between Hermione and Ron can still feel the same. Thanks for writing this :) added as favorite
| idearlylovealaugh chapter 2 . 4/7/2014
Oh, I feel bad for both of them here. Bad for Hermione, because obviously she's quite hurt that Ron's not happy. But as a person that has a hard time (or needs a bit of time) adjusting to change, I empathize with Ron, and understand that that personality trait can often result in a bad initial reaction to surprises and/or big news. It's obviously led to a misunderstanding. I thought Ron's insecurities were natural and poignant, and hope he and Hermione can talk about them.
Glad you've expanded this into a longer story, and looking forward to more!
| mrsspecialk chapter 3 . 4/4/2014
OMG this had me in tears of laughter- harry's input just makes it so much better xD Really cute ending too!
| McGonagall25 chapter 1 . 3/19/2014
This was very good. I liked it a lot. Rose was really cute in this and love how Ron and Hermione were fighting over the baby being named after Victor.
| Madhatter1981 chapter 1 . 2/12/2014
This is pretty much how i though they arrived at the name Hugo, i find i weird how many authors think that Ron named Hugo.
| Anika Kindal chapter 1 . 2/8/2014
That was adorable. Their voices are exactly how I would expect adult Ron and Hermione to sound. Even had a little tear in my eye at Rose's comment at the end. Find job.

H'Catha was one of the planets in Toril's solar system, also known as Realmspace. It appeared as an emerald green star in Toril's sky.[2]
The last of Toril's Five Wanderers, H'Catha, appeared as a crystalline glimmer of white.[3] Consisting of a flat disc of 300-mile thick water with a single mountain in the center, close-up, this world looked like a giant wagon wheel, with the Spindle (the mountain) always pointing directly at the sun. Near the base of the mountain, six ports, each owned by a different type of beholder accepted spelljamming traffic from other beholders, (not ones who lived on H'Catha, as that would provoke a war,) and a mysterious humanoid race. Other species were only allowed to land if they had goods to trade and left as soon as they were done. The world was orbited by two satellites, Turnbetl and Lumbe.[4]

They transferred their natural rapport and quick wit to presenting with much-loved Saturday morning show SMTV Live – a knowing update of the Swap Shop/Tiswas format. At the turn of the millennium, game show Friends Like These launched their primetime careers. It was themed, as the title would imply, around friendship – something that the Geordie pair know a thing or two about, having been inseparable for two-thirds of their lives.
With an almost telepathic bonds, these mind twins got exactly the same GCSE results and shared a flat for years. Even now, they only live a few doors apart in west London, sharing a car into work each morning and constantly texting each other when they're apart. "Ours is a career built on a friendship, not a friendship built on a career," says Donnelly.
One hesitates to use the B-word but it's the ultimate bromance. Donnelly is reportedly heartbroken by his pal's current pain.

Recently I was asked about my love languages and had no idea what they were. So I took the test and discovered that I interpret love through Acts of Service and Quality Time. No surprises there! I'm all about showing verses telling. People can say anything but what they do is what matters most. I'm also a big believer that how someone chooses to spend their time is a good indication of what they value. You can't love me and have to pencil me into your schedule. Loving me means making me a priority. Not the only priority but definitely a priority. Continue reading
I don't know why I still get so amazed at how God speaks to me. It starts with me noticing something that is so common place and seeing it through a new perspective. It's like I have new or child-like eyes that are trying to process something that, on a normal day, I would walk by without a glance. Let me paint the picture for you…
Everyday I go to work, I park in the same garage. I can admit, I'm not the most fond of the parking attendant and it often drives me nuts when I'm unable to find a space and then forced to leave my key with him. Well this particular day, I found a space albeit a bit further away than I'd like. As I'm walking to the door, I see what I thought was a space right outside of the doorway but as I got closer I realized that someone parked their "toy car" in the spot… okay, okay it was a smart car or something! Very miniature!!! And the first thing I'm thinking is, "they don't even need that big 'ole GOOD parking space!!!!" I was so annoyed for no other reason than I wanted to just push it out the way with my big 'ole "normal" size car! I know it's petty but that's just how I was feeling that day.
Little did I know, God had a lesson in all of that. Here's the picture he painted… Continue reading
Bonus Video: Prison Break
I think I may have done this one other time. Posted two blogs in one day. I just felt compelled to share the message I referenced in my earlier post titled "My High Tower." Not to mention, I want to share the greatness that the iNgage Movement has been to the community, led by a young man named Nelson Bowen. His series is titled "Prison Break." This particular message hit home with me and from it brought peace and understanding that surpasses anything I could have possibly imagined at this time in my life. Some things are just too good not to share.
This is the first of many iNgage pod casts so I hope you take the time to watch in its entirety. After you do that, make plans to join us on the 1st, 2nd, or 4th Saturday of every month.

My High Tower
Psalm 9:9 "The Lord also will be a refuge and a high tower for the oppressed, a refuge and a stronghold in times of trouble (high cost, destitution, and desperation)."
Imagine you think you're about to be hit with a pillow stuffed with feathers but instead it's one stuffed with bricks. That was me. It would have been great if I was still on my writing hiatus but as fate would have it I'm back at it and things are so out of sorts for me right now. I'm looking for the "Do Over" button like now!
There are times when I write out of joy and revelation knowledge and there are times where it is out of complete and utter desperation. That's where I am today. Not that I'm desperate for readers or public approval but out of the need to feel closer to God so that I can make sense out of senseless situations.
Here's what I know about me. When I pray I don't usually hear anything from God right away. My prayer time is often me thanking Him, pleading to Him for instruction, asking Him for protection, etc. More often than not, I hear him at the most random moments! I can be driving in my car, listening to a song, having a conversation with someone and He'll just interrupt me. However, what I've learned most recently is that my special time with God is when I write. It doesn't matter if it's a pen and pad or a keyboard, that's our official quality time together.
I didn't realize that until today. So often I'm delayed in writing because I want to know what my message is before I sit down. That's been one of the main reasons I went on such a long hiatus earlier this year, but God revealed to me as I'm typing this that He waits for me to follow His instruction to sit down and write so that He can give me the words as I go. Sometimes I know a head of time but in times when I feel unprepared (I'm a habitual planner!) I still need to show up. Take that as a lesson, if God leads you to do something that you don't feel ready or able to do just show up! He's waiting on your obedience, not your perfection. Continue reading
Bruised & Bloody…. BUT
Hebrews 4:7 "Again He sets a definite day, [a new] Today, [and gives another opportunity of securing that rest] saying through David after so long a time in the words already quoted, Today, if you would hear His voice and when you hear it, do not harden your hearts."
I got it wrong more times than I got it right these past few months. Distractions, life's pressures, loss… you name it, I was engrossed in it. There's really no other way to put it other than as bluntly as only I know how… I neglected my assignment. I let one "off" week turn into ten and over the course of those weeks all hell broke loose. My initial absence was simply due to the fact that I didn't feel I had anything pertinent to share. There weren't any new revelations or interesting stories of inspiration. As many of you know, I never write just to write. I have to have a message and it has to be signed, sealed, and delivered by God. I'll drop my opinions in here and there but overall it will always tie back into what I heard from God or am seeking to learn from God. Continue reading
2015 Word of the Year: INTENTIONAL
Intentional: done on purpose; deliberate; calculated; planned, preconceived, purposeful
John 9:4 "We must work the works of Him Who sent Me and be busy with His business while it is daylight; night is coming on, when no man can work."
The word "intentional" has been heavy on my mind for a few days now. I've reached a point in my life where doing something just to do it has lost its appeal. When I was younger I would make exceptions for things. It was the whole, "why not, I don't have anything better to do" syndrome. What I've realized is that kind of mindset allows too much room for ambivalence, complacency, and distractions to wreck havoc.
No one likes the idea of being "ON" all the time. But the one's that are see their dreams come to pass far quicker and far more frequently than those that want to "chill" all the time. Life is to be lived but what good is living if it's not within your purpose… if you're just roaming the earth attracted to every shiny new toy that comes within sight. When does the excitement of new "things" that are not in line with what you were put on earth to achieve lose their zeal? I'll tell you. When you're exhausted from the rat race of keeping up with everyone else's rat race. When you finally ask God why you're still breathing? When you realize that time is the absolute most precious thing we have. Not one person with an incurable, terminal illness is sitting around wishing they had more clothes, more women, more cars, more stuff. I guarantee that each one of them wishes for more time. Even when we lose family members, we as survivors wish for more time with them.
It's my 2015 goal to make better use of my time. Even my chill time has to be directed. I'm spending quality time with special people creating memories. I'm appointment viewing my favorite TV shows and as of right now there are only two and half (Jury is still out on Empire, lol). I'm not surfing channels looking for shows to take up my time, I'm not going out just to go out, and I'm not reading things that don't inspire and help me create a better life for myself. I'm working on passion so that I can get out of the prison of having to work for a vision that is outside of my own. I'm putting my hand to plow to help overcome the social and humane injustices that have plagued a community that I represent far beyond the color of my skin. The heart I have for animals and their welfare will soon be shared on a bigger platform. I'm volunteering and using my gifts to enhance other people's visions that I support because I believe what you make happen for others, God will make happen for you. I'm writing, applying, and learning more about my craft everyday. Yes, I am intentional about mine.
Habakkuk 2:3 "For the vision is yet for an appointed time and it hastens to the end [fulfillment]; it will not deceive or disappoint. Though it tarry, wait [earnestly] for it, because it will surely come; it will not be behindhand on its appointed day."
It's about being intentional with your time, who you spend your time with, and what you spend your time doing. Don't be thrown off by the time it takes to get to where you want to be. Relax. Take it one day at a time and remain focused.
And let me say this: stop getting sucked into the "Lifestyles of the InstaFamous." Please understand that people only post what they want you to know. You'll never know the real person through social media so stop measuring your life against theirs. Stop thinking you have so far to go when you have no idea what life beyond the selfie is like for them! Social media is a lot of fun but it can get dangerous when you think of how much it influences people's thoughts and actions. I could go on for days about this but I'm getting off topic. Let me just encourage you to take inventory of how you're spending your time this year. Every hour doesn't have to be planned but you should have a goal for each day and everything in those 10-12 hours should be working towards accomplishing it! It's time out for watching everyone else's dreams unfold. Let's make 2015 a year to remember for what we are able to achieve… in real life!
Eph. 5:15-17 "Look carefully then how you walk! Live purposefully and worthily and accurately, not as the unwise and witless, but as wise (sensible, intelligent people), Making the very most of the time [buying up each opportunity], because the days are evil. Therefore do not be vague and thoughtless and foolish, but understanding and firmly grasping what the will of the Lord is."
If "Faith" Took A Selfie, It Would Look Like This
In honor of my man of God, Pastor Michael A. Freeman, and his remarkable recovery and unshakable faith, I'm taking this Tuesday to share his testimony. In a time when our faith is being shaken by injustice and evil, let this serve as a reminder that God has the final say. When faced with challenges, no matter how dire the situation, keep your mind on the promise not the process. Evaluate the people you have in your circle now and remove all of those who you know would not stand with you in your darkest hour. It does matter who you call friend. It matters what church you attend. And it matters who you allow to speak over your life. Take inventory now.
I don't have to write much today. No words can describe faith better than seeing real faith in action. So, I'll let this video speak for itself. Keep the faith! Even if it's all you have to stand on, it's enough. My pastor is living proof.
The Universal Love Language
Recently I was asked about my love languages and had no idea what they were. So I took the test and discovered that I interpret love through Acts of Service and Quality Time. No surprises there! I'm all about showing verses telling. People can say anything but what they do is what matters most.

Loving me means making me a priority. Not the only priority but definitely a priority. Continue reading
Say I Won't
Lecrae's song "Say I Won't" is on steady repeat these days. The beat is fire but the lyrics embody everything that I want my life to stand for. Rebellion is natural for me. I don't fit into crowds and never wanted to be a part of one. I do my own thing when and how I want to do it without any company or approval from pretty much anyone. I have my select few that I may bounce ideas off of but those are people that I hold in high regard and know beyond doubt that they have my best interest at heart. So when I ran this track that pretty much dares anyone to say what you can't or won't do I was hooked. But God, in true form, took it to another level and gave it a much bigger meaning.

Divorced AND Christian… The Response.
Well, I asked for feedback and you all did not disappoint! I loved reading each and every one of them whether I agreed with all of it or not. Let me just say that I find this to be a very complicated subject and it may have everything to do with the fact that I haven't done my due diligence to really seek out the Word in its entirety to understand the idea of an "ordained marriage." After this, I vow to do so that, right or wrong, I can have a clear stance on the topic and back it with scripture which I believe is very important. It's not a matter of opinion. It's all about truth and "The Truth" comes from the Bible. So I'm going to highlight a few comments and share a little of what I think as it relates to them. So let's go! Continue reading

Kingdom of God
My simple laymans explanation...
Father is the Supreme authority (King) of the community (heaven) in which he and other beings reside. Therefore the "Kingdom of God" exists now… but not on our planet.
Our elder brother Jesus makes this clear in the latter part of a model prayer he was teaching people one day.....(paraphrase)"When your kingdom comes your way of life will be done the same (on earth) just like it is in heaven.
I'm fairly confident the way we live on earth is not the same as it is in heaven...especially when our Father tell us "your ways are not my ways". Which leads me to believe the kingdom of God has not been set up here yet….
So when will our ways be like our Fathers? Simple…when our brother Jesus returns. He will set up the "Kingdom of God" here on earth so we can experience living just like it exists in heaven.
To that I say "come Lord come".
