July 29 Review by Sinn Everyone Loves A SiNner
July 30 Character Interview at Mission to Read
Onto the interview:
What is it about the paranormal, in particular witches, ghosts, and haunted houses featured in your book, that fascinates you so much?
I've always had a morbid fascination with haunted houses and ghosts. I love all things supernatural, and I knew the market was flooded with vampires, fairies, and werewolves, so I decided to make my heroine a sassy witch. Because witches need love too!
The story ARC took a different twist once I decided to add magick to my plot. And it was super fun. The story came alive and I found my "voice." In the Spellbound Series, the narrative is loosely based on the actual Wiccan Religion; however I have taken certain liberties with the portrayal of real witchcraft purely for entertainment purposes.
And as a result of adding a magickal theme, I wanted my main characters to live in a spooky town, which gave birth to the idea of the setting: Whispering Pines, California near Muir Woods. A foggy, cursed town full of secrets was the perfect place to set my story. I also have a blog devoted to its haunted history. http://ravenhurstmansion.blogspot.com/
Please tell us about your latest release Beautifully Broken:
Quirky, Shiloh Ravenwolf is a sixteen-year-old heritage witch. She lives in the gloomy town of Whispering Pines, where teenagers have mystically disappeared for over ten years. When construction on Ravenhurst Manor unleashes a sinister evil, the body count rises. And Shiloh's would-be boyfriend is next on the supernatural hit list. So, she decides it's her duty and Destiny (Yes, with a capital "D") to find out what is causing the unexplained phenomena.
Is there a character that you enjoyed writing more than any of the others?
The heroine, Shiloh Ravenwolf is my (younger) alter ego. Like Shiloh, my own father is Native American and my mother is French. So, Shiloh inherited my DNA. She is quirky and snarky and brave. All the things I wish I had been at sixteen. J
What is your favorite scene from the book? Could you share a little bit of it, without spoilers of course?
First meeting between the two main characters. (see excerpt below) I think we all can relate to that feeling of instant attraction. That weak-in-the-knees sensation.
Do you ever suffer from writer's block? How do you deal with it?
Oh yeah. Whenever I get writers block or can't think of a clever way to explain something. I go to internet and read online poetry. Much better. Now I'm full of pretty prose and ideas.
What are your guilty pleasures in life?
Watching scary movies and my favorite TV shows: SUPERNATURAL, Vampire Diaries, TrueBlood, Game of Thrones, and I can't wait for CW's new series "The Secret Circle" about witches. Yay!
Do you write in different genres?
Not really. I've always been attracted to the elements of horror and supernatural. So, basically I write what I would read.
When did you consider yourself a writer?
I've had an obsession with the written word since I held my first book in my hands at age seven.
What was the last amazing book you read?
Loved Elle Jasper's debut, Afterlight. So good! The Iron Hunt by Marjorie M. Liu. ANYTHING written by YA author, Rachel Vincent.
Where is your favorite place to read?
Before I go to sleep each night, I curl up in bed and read for about 2 hours. Of course, if the book is really good, I've been known to read most of the night.
Where can readers find you on the web?
Official website: http://sherrysoule.com
Official blog: http://sherrysoule.blogspot.com/
Twitter: http://twitter.com/writersherry
Would you like to leave readers with a little teaser or excerpt from the book?
For a moment, I ignored the shadows, the fog, and the wraith. As if the moonlight and his gaze had transformed me into something brave and beautiful. Something enchanted like a wildflower in the shade of the forest. We gazed at each other with a fierce unrest. The world had gone still with a seething passion, which agitated the space between our bodies. Night contained only the two of us. Trent's emerald eyes were half-closed, the pupils huge, and I felt myself falling into them. My body ached. My heart swelled with desire. So many words went unspoken as we lingered in the dark. But all thought and words seemed to slip away.
A car drove past and I blinked, feeling slightly dazed. And spellbound.

Small Business Week: Managing a Company's Growth
Monday, May 18, 2009; 12:00 PM
Growing a small business into a big business is no easy feat. Seth Goldman started beverage firm Honest Tea out of his kitchen in Bethesda, Md., after quitting his job at a social investment fund. His gamble paid off. Last year, Goldman sold 40 percent of Honest Tea for $43 million to Coca-Cola and it has the option to buy the company outright in three years.
Seth hosted a discussion on Monday, May 18 at 12 p.m. on how to grow a successful small business.
For more from our Small Buinsss Week series of live discussions, click here.
Alexandria, Va.: What does your deal with Coca-Cola allow you to do that you couldn't achieve on your own?
Seth Goldman: Since we started working with Coke, we have expanded our distribution into markets and channels that we never before had access to. Honest Tea is now distributed through the Coke system on the West Coast and Mountain States. Our product can also now be found in dozens of universities and hospitals, and we are in the process of working with several school systems.
Bethesda, Md.: When did you know you had to move out of your kitchen and into a bigger facility?
Seth Goldman: Once we had finished product, we had to store it somewhere and my wife wasn't fond of the idea of storing it in our garage. We started by working out of a generic office building in downtown Bethesda. We weren't really meant to work out of there either -- we were on the 3rd floor and had to use the elevator to take in deliveries. We had our share of messy spills, but it was enough to get us up and running!
Baltimore, Md.: In the U.S. where people seem to be driven to maximize, maximize, maximize, could there possibly be an optimum size or ideal for a small business?
Or is it just a matter of you'll be eaten by the big fish if you yourself don't grow up to be one?
Seth Goldman: I think the right size depends on the nature of the business. A local restaurant, or service-oriented business, should be able to thrive with its own local footprint. On the other hand it's much harder for a beverage company to suceed by only serving a local niche --you need purchasing and production scale to get decent margins. And it's very hard to reach that scale if your sales are only reaching a local audience.
Denver, Colo.: Why did you decide on a beverage-related business? Did you do a lot of market research beforehand?
Seth Goldman: I had toyed around with several entrepreneurial ideas before launching Honest Tea. A classmate and I had won the New Enterprise Competition at the Yale School of Management for a diagnostic idea, and we came close to launching that business. But when I faced the decision I knew that I wasn't passionate about the idea. When the ideas for Honest Tea started to gather momentum, I knew that it was an idea I was excited about -- especially because I was thirsty and there was nothing out there like our product!
Arlington, Va.: How important was it to you that your company's products become certified organic? Is that something you'd recommend for small firms to look into?
Seth Goldman: Organics have become a central part of our brand's identity because it fits naturally into our mission of health and sustainability. When we learned that tea leaves are one of the few agricultural products that are never rinsed, we realized that any chemicals sprayed on tea leaves end up in the drink. So we worked to convert our entire line to organics.
From a sales perspective, I wouldn't recommend organics for every firm -- I think it depends on what you are selling. For example, I'm not sure someone buying candy is worried about purchasing organic candy.
But from a sustainability perspective, I think organics are a critical step toward healing our planet -- though there is not yet definitive data that proves organics are better for the human body, we know our ecosystem (and the people picking/proceesing the ingredients) doesn't need more toxins.
New York, N.Y.: I always believe that learning from mistakes is the key to success. Can you share some of your early mistakes and how you overcame them?
Seth Goldman: We have made many mistakes over the past 11 years, but among the most painful:
-- Co-owning a bottling plant that lost a lot of money -- the lesson there was to make sure you know what you're business you're in. We realized we were brand builders, not manufacturers.
-- Placing too much trust in distributors that ended up not paying us -- the lesson there was to keep tighter control on our receivables.
-- Focusing on our tea bag line even though the bottles were selling much faster -- the lesson there was to realize that the most important part of our name wasn't "Tea", it was "Honest".
-- Occasionally letting our passion for a mission get ahead of our customers' needs. We brought out a product called Haarlem Honeybush that had an amazing connection with a cooperative in South Africa, but the product was not well-designed and did not succeed. We retrenched and launched Pomegranate Red Tea, which better communicates what we're selling, and still supports sustainable agriculture in South Africa.
Washington, D.C.: What is the best piece of advice you can give an entreprenuer in any field?
Seth Goldman: Make sure you're pursuing something you're passionate about. The work is too hard, the odds are too steep, that you have to feel good about what you've done whether you succeed or not. And if you really love what you're doing, then you won't accept failure as an option.
Philadelphia, Pa.: A lot of your success seems to be word-of-mouth, was this a lucky break for you? or do you have any marketing advice to make it appear that way?
Seth Goldman: We've definitely invested in word-of-mouth marketing. In fact, it's really the only kind of marketing we do. We have a team of samplers around the country who act as our ambassadors for our brand. They give out more than a million samples every year, and as a result, we spread our excitement to thousands of adopted ambassadors who share our drinks with their friends. From the outside it may seem that we get lucky when celebrities such as Oprah, Rachel Dilson or President Obama get sighted with our product. But for every high-profile consumer we gain, there are thousands of other ambassdaors out there who are still spreading the tea.
Washington, D.C.: While you were growing your business, did you ever have to make any layoffs? If not, what kinds of structuring did you do to avoid them?
Seth Goldman: Fortunately, we've never had to lay off anyone for financial reasons. We've definitely had to terminate employees who didn't work out. When times were tough, we enlisted everyone in the organization, including our accounting folks, to get out and sell.
18th Street: My own business has declined twenty percent since the Wall Street implosion. How do I grow sales in a bad economy?
Seth Goldman: Every business is different, but one of the best ways to build sales is to focus on the customers you already have. Whole Foods is our top account, but when we analyzed the regional data, we realized that we sell three times as much tea in the Mid-Atlantic stores as we do in the Northwest. So we stepped up our focus on that region by scheduling more samplings and merchandising support.
Rockville, Md.: What does sustainability mean to your organization?
Seth Goldman: For us sustainability is a continuous effort to lighten our environmental footprint. Organics is a central part of it, but so is our packaging. Just this month we are shifting to a new plastic bottle that is 22% lighter than our previous bottle. We are also launching our own internal sustainability working group to focus on projects such as extending the life cycle of our tea leaves and preparing an annual report to hold ourselves more accountable along all the different ways we impact the environment.
Ellicott City, Md.: How did you fund your company at the beginning? Did you rely on friends and family? Did you ever take out a bank loan and was that scary?
Seth Goldman: In the very beginning my co-founder Barry and I relied on funding from the only people we knew who couldn't say no -- ourselves, our parents, my sister and Barry's college roommates. Once we started selling, we were approached by consumers who loved the product and wanted to become angel investors. We've relied on bank financing for more than seven years, and indeed it was scary to have to personally guarantee loans (and something I still have to do today) but I realized that if Honest Tea didn't work out, I'd have more than bank loans to worry about!
Rockville, Md.: Do you conduct focus groups to better understand your product? Do you think that's something a micro business should do or is it a waste of time until you grow?
Seth Goldman: Every once in a while we'll do paid focus groups. They're useful if we want to learn about a particular ingredient, or label idea. I think they can be misleading when you're trying to gauge the response to taste -- that's best done on a one-on-one basis. When we are trying to gain a sense of how people respond to a new product, we enlist our sampling teams to get feedback during their samplings. As a result, we can get responses from hundreds of people within 24 hours.
Woodbridge, Va.: Do you think it helps a business to give to charity or become tied to a charitable event - not just for doing good but also for recognition? What has HonestTea done that way?
Seth Goldman: Every year we give hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of product to charitable events. For us, product donations can be an effective part of our marketing strategy -- cold samples in the hands of our target-consumers where we benefit from the halo effect of supporting a good cause. Like many early stage companies, we aren't in a position to donate money, so I think the question of when and what to donate depends on the nature and life-cycle of the business.
Bethesda, Md.: Is Honest Tea going to move to Atlanta?
Seth Goldman: We have no plans to leave Bethesda, and neither do I!
Silver Spring, Md.: How do you motivate and keep your team of samplers enthusiastic and energetic - i can't imagine it's the most high paying job?
Seth Goldman: One of the very cool benefits our samplers enjoy is that they get to be on the receiving end of most of the enthusiasm our consumers have for our products. So though their work can be physically demanding and even a little repetitive, it's always invigorating to feel like you're connecting with people who share our passion for our mission. In addition, we do a lot of promoting from within, so there are opportunities for advancement, and they get all the tea they can drink!
Seth Goldman: Thanks for all the great questions. Please help spread the word -- we are still a local company and rely on our customers to help spread the word!! Honestly yours, Seth

The fire reportedly started in the kitchen after a gas explosion and took more than 35 firemen with over 11 fire engines to douse it most of the night, Johannesburg Emergency Services spokesperson Steven Kirk said.
"There has been extensive damage to the club house. Only the main hall seems to have been saved," he said.
The offices of the United Cricket Board of South Africa, which is housed in the back of the club house, was not affected.
The Club house was established in the 1880s and was moved to its present site in the 1930s. It boasts of the Cricket stadium, gymnasium, tennis courts and an 18-hole golf course in its complex and has been a meeting place for the "high and mighty" of Johannesburg for decades.

Teen reading resources blog
Each year I, the Young Adult Librarian, compile a list of my favorite books from that year. Although I read quite a bit, I cannot read every young adult novel published. These are my favorite books from all the books published within the past twelve months that I have read. Books are listed in alphabetical order by title unless an author has written more than one book on the list. I will do my best not to spoil things. However, some of the books are sequels, and I assume some knowledge of previous books.
Stock photos are often used in publishing resulting in different books having almost the exact same cover. Here are a few from the young adult fiction collection.
These graphic novel series will now be in the teen graphic novel collection.
Assassination Classroom
These sequels and series are now on order.
These two sets of books share titles but have different stories.
In Real Life by Cory Doctorow
Nothing Can Possibly Go Wrong by Prudence Shen & Faith Erin Hicks
The Young Adult Librarian will be headed to Austin, Texas this weekend for the Young Adult Literature Symposium. Here are four books from the teen fiction collection set in Austin.
The library will not be collecting these two graphic novel series:

The house was very comfortable. We had access to everything for cooking and relaxing. It was in a very quiet hamlet and pitch dark at night. We were able to sleep so well.Irene2014-11-02T00:00:00Z
Jeg tilbragte en uge med min datter og hendes kæreste på Coraline hytte. Det var en stor oplevelse. Alt i sommerhuset havde et personligt præg, og selv mødte vi aldrig Caroline, vi kunne lære meget om hendes grund til så mange fantastiske bøger, souvenirs fra forskellige ture rundt i verden.Slavica2014-08-26T00:00:00Z
County Cottage was the perfect base for three days walking. The location is lovely and the cottage is comfortable and well equipped.Piers2015-08-30T00:00:00Z
Dette charmerende sommerhus er ideel for at besøge Dales. Smukke vandreture fra huset. Denne ene er meget veludstyret, Caroline har alt for komfort af sine gæster. Naboer også meget venlige og imødekommende. Vi har haft ophold.Marie Pierre2015-08-09T00:00:00Z
My wife and I stayed in Cosy Cottage for a week. Our host Caroline was not able to meet us, but her contact with us before our arrival and during our stay made everything easy. The cottage is as presented and had all that was needed to make our stay very comfortable. WiFi worked a treat. Mobile phone coverage is tricky, but that was the case throughout the Dales. A wonderful little village, with many great walks accessible just near the cottage. I thoroughly recommend Cosy Cottage, you will enjoy the experience.Anthony2017-04-29T00:00:00Z
Lovely place, and Caroline was great to deal with. Unfortunately we had a family illness and we needed to leave a day early, but I could have stayed for another month! It was great to be home again and to have to opportunity to live in a wonderful house and community. The neighbours and local pub were very inviting too. Highly recommended.Germaine2016-07-30T00:00:00Z
Caroline was away while we stayed at the cottage but she made sure we had all the info we needed and all went smoothly. We loved the cottage, it had everything we needed. It is situated on the edge of a road which does get quite busy with tourists heading to Malham cove but you soon get used to that. The village has a medieval church, a pub, friendly neighbours and is very quiet once the tourists have gone home. Nicely situated for seeing the Dales. The road to Settle was a favourite with magnificent views, beautiful highland cattle and for watching the sunset.Liz2016-06-08T00:00:00Z
Jeg bookede County House for min mand og mine to sønner, som er i 30'erne. De havde truet med at gå til Yorkshire Dales sammen til kvart århundrede og til sidst gjort det. Huset er en behagelig, lille, ultimo terrasse stenhus, beliggende i den attraktive landsby Kirkby Malham og blev bygget i midten af det 18. århundrede for Yorkshireman der ikke er helt så høje dengang som de er i dag. Der var kun to soveværelser, så sønnerne måtte dele. Huset blev indrettet i en noget finurlig, men ikke uinteressant mode og havde en lang have med masser af opholdsstue. Lidt underligt var, at Astro turf var blevet erstattet af en græsplæne. Men en søn købte en lille fad øl fra Edinburgh, som de drak i haven; atmosfæren var så godt som enhver pub besøgte i pausen. Indvendigt nogle af de lette switche var omkring 60 år, men man det indtryk, at dette var bevidst. Rigelig opbevaringsplads og køleskabe blev forudsat for at sikre, at kun ét besøg var forpligtet til Skipton supermarkeder. County House beliggenhed giver nem adgang til Malham geologiske attraktioner og er et fremragende sted hvorfra at besøge resten af Yorkshire Dales. Maureen der er nøglering var meget nyttigt og chatty og gjort tingene meget let for os. Afslutningsvis begge drengene sagde, at de håber at returnere engang denne sommer med deres respektive partnere og børn, hvilket indikerer at de havde en god tid!alisuin2014-07-16T00:00:00Z

On arrival we met Jane and John and were shown around the property. Everything was explained and John kindly sorted out an extension lead to enable our friends to recharge their mobility scooter. The house was well furnished, warm, plenty of towels and comfortable beds. Airton is a lovely dales village, 2 miles or so from Malham Cove and Tarn, which can be seen from the local farm shop and tea room, which we thoroughly recommended. Skipton not far away. location ideal for short walks.sarah2016-10-29T00:00:00Z
It was great to stay at Jane's place, everything was as described. Jane made us feel welcom. We recommend it to anyone and hopefully we ll visit Airton again;)Katarzyna2016-05-03T00:00:00Z
Stayed for a night after a wedding. Jane came to meet us to help us find the place which was very nice of her at 1:30am. Lovely spacious house with all amenities in good condition. Even a nice piano, board games and some good dvds. Photos dont really do the property justice. Highly recommend. Many thanks! (PS, take your own towels if you're staying a while as there are only a few there).Andy2014-09-14T00:00:00Z
Jane was wonderful and the property was perfect for our needs. The beds were comfortable, the shower was fab, and the surrounding area was so peaceful and quiet. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you Jane for being such a lovely host!Sara2017-04-09T00:00:00Z

I have a really safe personality in everything I do, so I dont do risks. Like whether I am playing sports, video games, taking a test, or what have you I always take the safe route, thats just who I am. So when it comes to relationships there is no way I am going to ask a girl out unless I am certain she likes me. That being said I am currently pretty interested in this girl, but I dont really know how to test whether or not she likes me back. I need to have a certain level of certainty that she will say yes, so what can I do to get this?
Are there ways to test whether or not a girl likes you?
Have an opinion?
What Girls Said 1
Maybe you can hug her and see A) if she hugs back. B) how long the huge is. & C) how close the huge is.00|00|0
What Guys Said 2
You can never be certain if a girl likes you, unless she tell you that herself. That is highly unlikely, because it's very rare for girls to initiate. So the only way to know, is to ask her out. Playing it safe, does not work for men. Not at all.
I'm the same way as you, so I just never approach women at all. Have been single for 5 years now.00|00|0
Test? Are you kidding? That's a childish immature game. Man up and ask her out like the rest of us00|00|0
Nah I'm good, if being a man means asking out a girl, then I guess I'm not a man. I'm not going against my personality to do something as stupid as ask a girl out. To be honest, to me, no girl is worth betraying myself, so I'll be single, I dont really care that much. I was hoping to get some nice advice on how to be sure a girl likes me but what you gave isn't really what I was looking for. Thanks anyway.

Juricultural Pluralism Vis-a-Vis Treaty Law:State Practice and Attitudes (Developments in International Law)
The way in which 'legal' culture has been defined in the past has limited comparative processes to law itself. The author proposes a new term, 'juriculture', defined as 'the axiological and behavioural formula which pertains to the law.' This new definition provides a comparative tool which focuses on ontological and epistemological bases of law and concomitant legal theories which are distilled from these philosophical bases, in addition to primary and secondary rules, and written laws. This book tackles the crucial issue of how divergent individual, State, and Regional cultures impact the international legal system in the law and State practice vis-a-vis treaty interpretation and reservations. An empirical analysis of cases in the Iran-U.S. Claims Tribunal and six human rights' treaties demonstrate that beyond weak juricultural pluralism, which the international legal system provides for, there is also strong juricultural pluralism, which is not envisaged by the system. This highlights the tension between universality and diversity in both primary and secondary rules, and international law itself. This book is a must for those interested in human rights, treaty law, culture, and legal theory. 'It is very much to Dr. Bunn-Livingstone's credit that she has both seen this crucial problem of modern international treaty law and has set about studying it and dissecting its implications for practice, and the ways in which a degree of legal pluralism in both its weak and strong forms are present in the current international legal system. It is not a task which many international lawyers have shown much appetite to tackle. But that renders this contribution to our knowledge the more important.' From the Foreword by Sir Robert Y. Jennings, QC

Rick Hoerman
Fear Grace
How can Gods grace be reconciled with the Bibles demand that we fear God? How can we at one moment believe that Gods wrath is on the verge of being unleashed upon us, and at the same time believe that He loves us unconditionally?
Perhaps it is that we really do not understand Gods love. The Bible says, love is patient; it does not say love is tolerant. We have incorrectly accepted the Worlds view that tolerance is a virtue of love. Gods love is unconditional, this does not mean that God does not place conditions upon our life, and that if He does He no longer loves us. Better stated, Gods love is unmerited. He loves us regardless of our condition. Could this be one reason why the Church has become luke-warm? Have we grown to accept that a loving God must be a tolerant God?
God loves patiently! Patience has an eventual end, knowing this should evoke fear and motivate compliance. Tolerance is open-ended, allowing a margin for error. How much error does God allow into His Kingdom? Instead, He offers His own absolute righteousness as a covering for those that believe. One can love the individual and be patiently holding back their wrath on that same individual simultaneously. The inevitable is that one day Gods wrath will be unleashed, whereas in a tolerant relationship there is no wrath to unleash, because error has been legitimized.
Tolerance enables opposing views to be treated with equal merit. Truth becomes subjective rather than absolute. Truth no longer is something we aspire, but rather something we manipulate to accommodate present circumstances and selfish desires. In contrast, patience allows opposing views to exist only for a season.
Today, patience is often perceived as arrogance and smugness. It presupposes that truth is absolute and that it can be apprehended and should be shared with others, while tolerance conveys openness to all perspectives and accepts that there is no single answer for everyone.
Make no mistake, there is a battle of words today and their subtle differences shape our world and can affect (and infect) our lives. Gods judgment is being stayed only by His loving patience, and fear of His judgment is a compelling force that should ignite us to discover His will. If we are luke-warm, it is because we do not fear God. Rather, we believe that He is tolerant and accepting of our multiplicity of perspectives and actions. In other words, we question that God really cares, and in so doing, compromise His love.
Very clearly written and understood, Rick. That is a thoughtful passage that speaks truth, fully, and provides an action plan. How do the different churches convey this message effectively? There are as many different types of church-goers as there are different personalities in the world today. Some accept truth willingly, some question truth, some are indifferent to truth but satisfied with routine, and there are plenty of others.
Is there a way to convey a message to the masses? Or does it need to happen grassroots to become effective?
Here's a thought to consider--how do spiritual leaders/pastors convey that message of reality to their congregation, so that the congregation will actual listen (not just hear) what the pastor is saying?
Your question is a difficult one for me "Is there a way to convey a message to the masses? Or does it need to happen grassroots to become effective?". For a long time I believed the problem was the way the message was being delivered. In part I believe messages can become rote and boring when we use tired Christian jargon. More likely however, the exceedingly comfortable life style that most Americans have experienced an ease of life which dilutes our urgency, or appetite, for divine truth.
2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
I believe prayer, the church turning to God for God's solution, is the answer to your question. But how is an appetite for prayer established, and what does it take to bring the Church to the point where God's will is the only perspective worthy of pursuit?
Perhaps difficult times are ultimately what will be needed.
In regard to the difference between tolerance and patience, my sister brought up an interesting point recently. She was sharing that her fairly, newly-wed daughter was very busy with 3 jobs...nursing, home decorating, and her newest found job...dog-sitting for those on vacation, etc. My sister said, " Her husband has been very tolerant of her most recent activities." (I'm assuming here because of the demands on their personal time together and their home, etc.)
I laughingly corrected her and said, "Don't let Rick hear you say tolerant...he prefers being patient over tolerant (based on his previous writings which my sister has read and is very much in agreement) However, she replied, "Well, I agree 1,000% when referencing sin, and God's loving patience. But, in this case, loving dogs and sitting for others would not be considered a sin that needed patience for change, right?" I agreed that was an interesting proposition, and one that I would certainly pose to Rick for his response.
He and I were thinking this through later, and I actually concluded that tolerance was not what my nephew-in-law was actually exhibiting in this case, but rather sacrifice, which is still a higher way, and another facet of God's love that tolerance can't hold a candle to!
What do you think, Sis, or anyone else in Cyberland?
I think the word tolerance is a media buzzword.
Also, I think it's interesting that Webster's Dictionary has two meanings for the word "tolerate."
1: to endure or resist the action of (as a drug or food) without serious side effects or discomfort : exhibit physiological tolerance for
2 a: to allow to be or to be done without prohibition, hindrance, or contradiction b: to put up with <learn to tolerate one another>
I agree that her husband is sacrificing time together, so that she can work several jobs with the end focus of achieving a goal or lifestyle they can enjoy together. As long as the intent and the motivation is for all the right reasons, there's no need for "tolerance" in that case. When you're both on the same page it's definitely "sacrifice" in my humble opinion.

Welcome to my Planet
Where English Is Sometimes Spoken.
By Shannon Olson.
Viking, $22.95.
The narrator of this book is the epitome of the 30-ish post-slacker: she's got a job she doesn't like, a boyfriend she doesn't love, a therapist who's too hard on her and a mother who was never hard enough. Shannon Olson (who has the same name as her narrator) never ventures far from the ''single gal tells all'' territory explored by Helen Fielding and Melissa Bank -- her protagonist lacks the former's sense of drama and the latter's easy wit -- though she does a singular job of portraying the terror of never knowing what to ask from life. When her mother's illness brings out new tensions in her parents' marriage, Shannon finds she prefers the distraction of shopping and watching television to real life -- and then wonders why she doesn't find fulfillment in new lipstick. ''Women's magazines did this to me,'' she says. ''Watching 'Love Boat' did this. I did this to myself.'' Olson's writing is honest and pleasantly unassuming. If Shannon's despondency seems to preclude anything profound from happening, it's because her own sense of alienation is all too palpable. Cynthia JoyceContinue reading the main story

Strength and Fear
What smile hast thou that moves me so to love?
What strength of heart, that moves thee so to smile?
Wherefrom thy strength–for I have none–yet, while
Thine own, hast brought me such abundance of?
My strength has gone away from me, my dove
Why then hast thou the art to so beguile
Those spirits, of those deaths, which, as my trial,
Belabour soul and heart? I strove, above,
To be the stronger spirit. Yet inspired
By strength–and by thy fear–it now becomes
My heart to strive for joy, or even higher–
Strive, though I have not the strength required
To strive–for such is when, thou must have come
Alive! And so we live again! But why?

5.Boston Private Financial HoldingsShares of Boston Private Financial Holdings ( BPFH) is a rare outlier among bank stocks, gaining 19% in 2011 in a year when bank stocks have been deep in the red. The bank through independently operated affiliates offers investment management and wealth advisory services to high networth investors and institutional clients. It has over $6 billion in assets and $4.5 billion in deposits. The bank has already been featured in TheStreet's
10 Community Bank M&A Targets. The bank turned around in the third quarter, posting a net income attributable to common stockholders of $11.4 million, or 14 cents per share, compared with a loss of $7.1 million, or 10 cents per share, a year ago. Boston Private's operating expenses fell 9 percent to $55.4 million, while its loan loss provision fell 86 percent to $4.5 million. The bank said in a recent investor presentation that it is investing in private banking franchise building and client acquisition across banking and wealth management businesses. "Investors are looking for well-balanced bank stocks with solid capital, growing EPS from real revenue expansion, and an attractive franchise that someday could be attractive to a third-party financial institution," FIG Partners analyst Christopher Marinac wrote in an Oct. 27 report. Still, a sale in 2012 is unlikely, according to KBW analyst Chris McGratty. "The company is in year 2 of its turnaround. It is going very well and the turnaround story has atleast another year of leg to it," he said. The bank figures in KBW's potential sellers list for two reasons- its attractive franchise value and the fact that it has a significant private-equity ownership. McGratty has an outperform rating on the stock with a price target of $9. Four analysts rate the stock a buy or outperform, while five have a hold rating on the stock.

Mirasys UK will be headed up by director of sales Jon Hill, who brings more than 15 years' experience in security and CCTV to the role. Jon will be responsible for marketing Mirasys' digital recording portfolio at a critical juncture for development of surveillance systems in the UK, one of the world's most highly penetrated security markets. The move comes after the company appointed surveillance industry authority Adam Wiseberg to the post of group chairman at its AGM in Finland last month. Jon Hill said, "As users in the UK transition their surveillance systems towards fully digital and IP-based solutions, they are looking for flexibility, affordability and ease of use. Mirasys brings a range of competitively priced products to the UK market at a time when buyers need to be able to interface with the full range of surveillance infrastructure.†Jon will be supported by technical director Martin Tweedie, an industry expert with more than 20 years' experience. As a product manager at Blick plc, now Stanley Security, Martin played a key role in introducing IP based CCTV technologies to the firm's product range. Most recently he worked as Digital Video product manager for Siemens Security Products, formerly Bewator. Jukka Riivari, chief executive officer, commented, "The UK is a critical CCTV market facing unique challenges. The country has over four million surveillance cameras already, but we are still seeing demand across a range of sectors. It's clear that the way in which these systems are designed and operated is changing rapidly, and the highly-experienced Mirasys UK team understands the needs of users in this environment. Mirasys' open-platform model will enable customers in the UK to build reliable future-proof surveillance operations with a range of features that provide new levels of clarity and intelligence.†Mirasys markets software solutions such as the NVR Enterprise, a comprehensive enterprise level security platform, and NVR Pro, an entry level IP Surveillance platform. It also provides hardware including a range of Networked Video recorders that support the H.264 data compression standard, which means less disk storage space and less bandwidth is required to capture high-resolution footage.

Theatre Review - 'Moment'Posted by Alexander Hay
Past traumas haunt the present in Deirdre Kinahan's explosive play
On a seemingly ordinary evening, an Irish family sit down to tea. Single daughter Niahm Lynch and her married sister Ciara Blake exchange pleasantries and engage in witty banter, in between some quarrelling, whilst their mother, Teresa, who is addicted to pills and alcohol, manages to keep everything running smoothly.
But it's different tonight – son Nial is home. Back from a five year stretch in prison for the murder of a teenage friend of the family, followed by six years in London, he has some news to share and a conscience to clear. He arrives in a happy mood with his attractive new-found wife Ruth. But a slip of the tongue by her causes a fateful moment to resurface which will change their lives forever.
Fast, amusing and frighteningly real, this is a story of a trauma wrapped up in tablecloths and teacake. There is an abrupt transition from domestic realism to searing self-exposure in the second act as the family is forced to confront a past crime – accusations and recriminations fly back and forth, the matriarch is taken ill and a marriage put in jeopardy, demonstrating how one terrible moment can change lives irrevocably.
Director David Horan draws naturalistic performances from his fine cast (the play is being performed by the Tall Tales Theatre Company and Solstice Arts Centre in association with the Bush Theatre), of whom Deirdre Donelly as the mother and Ronan Leahy as the returning son Nial make a particularly strong impression. Maeve Fitzgerald and Kate Nic Chonaonaigh as the sisters Niahm and Ciara respectively and Rebecca O'Mara as Nial's young wife Ruth are also commendable.
This then is a compassionate, troubling study of sin and redemption that lingers in the memory and marks Dierdre Kinahan as a playwright to watch.
Plays until March 26

The Audi Q1 will be the German manufacturer's most affordable SUV offering. The engineers will maintain the premium and exclusive features which are synonymous with Audi vehicles.

For a command line routine that is easy to set up a script with, check out ImageMagick .
It can be as simple as:
#convert image.jpg image.png
Or you can add operators to it to make it really powerful:
-dither -gravity -fill -background -bordercolor -stroke -font -pointsize -strokewidth -box -affine -virtual-pixel -interpolate

In a memo that describes an "urgent humanitarian situation," Obama has put the Federal Emergency Management Agency in charge of coordinating humanitarian relief to the children, including housing, care, medical treatment and transportation.
The Obama administration estimates that about 60,000 "unaccompanied minors" - children under 18 - will enter the United States illegally this year. It projects that number to grow to nearly 130,000 next year.
As recently as 2011, the number was only some 6,000.
Many of the children are from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala, as well as Mexico, and are fleeing either domestic abuse or violent gangs that increasingly prey on children as young as 12, White House officials said.
Poverty also contributes to decisions to leave their home countries, according to immigration advocacy groups.
In making the journey to the United States, they often are trying to reunite with a parent or other relative.
Last month, the administration announced it had opened a temporary shelter for some of the children at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio. It is nearly at its capacity of housing 1,200 children, officials said.
Reflecting the urgency of the situation, another such facility will open at Naval Base Ventura County in Southern California, Mark Greenberg, assistant secretary at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, said on Monday.
The California facility will hold a maximum of 600 children, officials said.
White House Director of Domestic Policy Cecilia Munoz said the action being announced on Monday was prompted not only by the rapid increase in the number of unaccompanied children, but because there were more girls than before and more children under the age of 13 than in past years.
The growing numbers of unaccompanied minors are placing budgetary pressures on Congress and the Obama administration as they prepare spending bills for next year, Reuters reported last week.
The officials did not provide an estimate of how many new shelters would have to be provided or the overall numbers of children that will have to be housed.
Homeland Security Deputy Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said federal officials would focus resources on combating smuggling networks that bring the children into the United States and would work with Central American governments to spread the word that the journey from their home countries is "perilous."
Many children do not realize the dangers they can encounter in leaving their home countries, including sexual assaults, starvation, forced labor and injuries from falling from freight trains that they jump on in Mexico.

The Financial Legacy of Iraq and Afghanistan: How Wartime Spending Decisions Will Constrain Future National Security Budgets
The Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts, taken together, will be the most expensive wars in US history--totaling somewhere between $4 to $6 trillion. This includes long-term medical care and disability compensation for service members, veterans and families, military replenishment and social and economic costs. The largest portion of that bill is yet to be paid. Since 2001, the US has expanded the quality, quantity, availability and eligibility of benefits for military personnel and veterans. This has led to unprecedented growth in the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Defense budgets. These benefits will increase further over the next 40 years. Additional funds are committed to replacing large quantities of basic equipment used in the wars and to support ongoing diplomatic presence and military assistance in the Iraq and Afghanistan region. The large sums borrowed to finance operations in Iraq and Afghanistan will also impose substantial long-term debt servicing costs. As a consequence of these wartime spending choices, the United States will face constraints in funding investments in personnel and diplomacy, research and development and new military initiatives. The legacy of decisions taken during the Iraq and Afghanistan wars will dominate future federal budgets for decades to come.
