Metabolic Response to Western vs. Indigenous Diets in Hispanic Women
Chronic disease risk, including breast cancer risk, is not uniform across race and ethnic
groups in the United States. This variation in disease risk may be due to environmental
exposures (including diet), genetic susceptibility, disparities in access to health
screening, diagnosis and medical care, or combination of these factors. Here we have shown
that Hispanic women in the U.S. are more likely to be overweight or obese compared to
non-Hispanic whites. Some of the excess obesity risk is likely due to the lack of
neighborhood availability and affordability of fruit, vegetables, lean protein and whole
grains. Whether an inexpensive and widely available highly processed/refined, nutrient poor
diet superimposed on a genetic background favoring adipose deposition (i.e., the "thrifty
genotype") is metabolically detrimental has not been investigated. Research to test the
metabolic response to Indigenous and Western diets in Hispanic women may provide important
information about the etiology of obesity and obesity-related diseases in Hispanic women,
including risk of breast cancer. Since reducing disparities in obesity-related diseases,
including breast cancer, is an important public health goal, identifying potential programs
for prevention should receive high priority.
Mexicans are the largest immigrant group in the United States with an estimated 10 million
Mexican-American women currently in the U.S. As they acculturate to this country, Mexican
immigrants change their dietary habits from traditional (indigenous) foods with plentiful
fruit, vegetables and complex carbohydrates rich in fiber and other compounds to a
Western-style diet high in fat and refined carbohydrate, but low in plant foods.
Particularly concerning is that the food choices made by Mexican immigrants, many of whom
are of lower socio-economic status, are driven partly by their inability to procure and
purchase healthy foods. The disparity in both food availability and purchasing power fuels a
tendency to obtain and consume a low-cost, Western style diet. When this diet is
superimposed on persons with a "thrifty genotype" who are evolutionarily adapted to diets
high in legumes and complex carbohydrates, it may lead to an abnormal metabolic response
that favors adipose deposition and numerous health risks. Thus, ancestral genetic
characteristics likely have an important role in metabolic response to specific dietary
patterns and subsequent health risks. This phenomenon may partly explain the tendency for
Mexicans and other immigrants from the Americas to become obese after just one generation in
the United States.

Neal Stephenson: SeveNeves a Novel
Date: 5/2015
Title: SeveNeves A novel
Author: Neal Stephenson
Duration: 32 hrs
Review: I loved this book. Especially the fist half. Stephenson, as usual, brings in all the minute technical detail, this time the domain is near-earth space survival (i loved LOVED this part). I so the encyclopedic nature of this author: science, philosophy, technology, psychology, all in stories that span millennia. So cool.

text: Hiya, I'm pretty sure someone on here will be able to help me! (BTW I've been looking around and you all have some really great ideas and layout piccys!) On a trip to the US West in Nov 2002, DBF and I came across a fabulous scrapbooking store in Jackson, CA. I've always been into crafts but SB is not very big here (the UK) I don't think... but I was in seventh heaven in that store! We picked up a 'Pioneer E-Z Load 12 x 12 Memory Book', some backing sheets, stickers and these things... We got one for each of the States we visited on the trip (Arizona, CA and Nevada) plus an FL one for this years trip...! BUT! We have no idea what these State thingies are! We just went a bit mad and bought them but now have no idea what to do with them... do we just cut them out and use them as headers? I hope you can help! Tis now May and we have made no start on our SB at *all* but I am pressing DBF to sit with me one night and decide what we want to do so hopefully, maybe one day I can show you some layouts... but this mystery must be solved first! Thnx and Cya, Gaspode

Anza-Borrego Desert State Park California
Anza, Coyote Canyon and Vistitor Center area
Overview | Vistor Center | Points of Interest | Where to Stay | Maps and Weather
Videos | Things to Do - ABDSP | Park History
The northwest area of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park is called the Anza Region. It offers some of the most arduous terrain in the park and is dominated by Comb's Peak and San Ysidro Peak, both of which exceed 6,000 feet in elevation.
In this region, Coyote Canyon bisects the Bucksnort and Coyote Mountains, where Juan Bautista de Anza's original route is marked by the First Child Monument, Santa Catarina and El Vado (Anza Camp).
Further up Coyote Canyon, Bighorn Sheep, as well as wild horses and Coyotes, grace the rugged terrain. Roads and trails here follow historic routes of the Native American Cahuilla. Gateways to this arid, rugged wilderness are provided by portions of the Pacific Crest Trail, the California Riding and Hiking Trail and Anza National Historic Trail.
Vern Whitaker Horse Camp is located further down Coyote Creek at the end of Borrego Springs Road. The trail to this camp, along with Desert Gardens Trail, Alcoholic Pass Trail and Desert View Trail, offer some of the less strenuous adventures in this area of the park.
Culp Valley is also located in this sector, in the mountains west of Borrego Springs between the San Ysidro and Pinyon Mountains. It is accessible from County Road S-22 as you enter the park from the west. The California Riding and Hiking Trail can be accessed here as it winds past Pena Spring and follows the rim of Hellhole Canyon descending to the valley floor. Maidenhair Falls, The Thimble, By Jim Springs and Scenic Overlook are all popular spots in the Culp Valley area.
The Visitor center is included in this area. Borrego Palm Canyon Nature Trail 3.0 miles round trip Begins at Borrego Palm Canyon Campground. Self-guided trail brochure describes plants and geology. Gently climbing trail leads to native palm grove. A self-guided trail map.
As you begin to explore Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, you will find that it has a rich archeological heritage and that nearly every surface of this arid land yields evidence of past human inhabitants. More...
Panoramic Overlook Trail 1.0 mile round trip Begins at Borrego Palm Canyon Campground, near site #71. Steep uphill trail ending with a view of campground and Borrego Valley. Visitor Center /
Campground Trail 1.2 miles round trip Begins at Visitor Center or B.P.C. Campground. Easy, all access trail between the two locations. Typical creosote scrub environment. Dogs on leash are permitted on this trail.
With more than 600,000 acres, Anza Borrego Desert State Park, has 7 unique areas that you can explore.

Joshua Tree National Park - Black Eagle Mine Road Video - Beginning 6.5 miles north of the Cottonwood Visitor Center, this dead-end dirt road runs along the edge of Pinto Basin, crosses several dry washes, and then winds up through canyons in the Eagle Mountains. The first 9 + miles of the road are within the park boundary. Beyond that point is BLM land. Several old mines are located near this road.
Ocotillo Wells - Are You Riding Your ATV Over Gold? One of the most famous prospectors of the time, trapper/gold seeker "Pegleg Smith" traveled through the Anza Borrego region. It's rumored he discovered black gold somewhere in the east part of the Park. Where he found his gold has never been discovered, or if it has, the location has never been published or verified.
Randsburg, Living Ghost Town Video
Randsburg, California is located southwest of Ridgecrest, just off of Highway 395. Gold was first discovered here in 1895 at the Yellow Aster Mine. The mines of the area have produced over one million ounces of gold. Today the gold mining activities have been replaced by tourists shopping for antiques, part-time prospectors, and off-roaders looking for food and a rest stop.

State Department's Visa Procedures Under Fire
August 5, 2002
Critics charge that the U.S. State Department has not exhibited sufficient urgency in tightening up its visa approval procedures -- given the fact that three of the 19 Sept. 11 hijackers entered the country under the department's visa shortcut program.
Critics cite these examples of the department's laxity:
- It continued until July 19 to grant visas to 4,300 Saudi Arabians and 2,100 citizens of other countries living there without requiring prior interviews.
- Even when interviews are required, they are often conducted by new and inexperienced foreign service officers -- and the procedure is usually over in just a few minutes.
- Though authorities in Singapore last January arrested several terrorist suspects, the country remains exempt from many visa requirements.
- While the department has broad authority to deny visas, its officials insist simply having suspicions about applicants' intentions are insufficient grounds to withhold visas.
Critics charge the State Department treats visas as a tool to promote tourism -- rather than as a means to protect against terrorism.

I have 0.18.1 installed.
I am trying to use block templates and I initially was trying to change from only partials to blocks but had troubles so now I am attempting to setup a site based on https://gohugo.io/templates/blocks/ for testing.
I ran hugo new site to get the shell.I created layouts/_default/baseof.html, layouts/_default/single.html and layouts/_default/list.html with the content from the docs.
At that point I get an empty homepage.
If I create layouts/index.html with:
Index stuff
{{ define "main" }}
the homepage only contains: Index stuff
I must be missing something here, would someone be willing to expand on the details of using blocks? Also I am assuming index.html picks up baseof.html but I could be wrong.
Thank you!
Repo to point us to? Are you getting any errors in the console? Also, what is "Index stuff"? You may be having issues because you are putting things outside of your {{define "main"}} block. Try this partial (and only the following code) for layouts/index.html:
{{define "main"}}
{{define "main"}}

Homepage layout is working.

Thanks for the reply, sorry I took so long to get back.
I must have been tired after the other troubles I had. If I make the index contain only the block content it works.
I'll have to go back and move things around in the actual project I am doing. Its based on:
so there is a bit more going on, but perhaps I had something similar causing an issue in trying to convert to blocks. I am still new to hugo, but I am super excited about it.
Cool. This is the very definition of how it has to work. Think of a {{define}} code block the same as extends...that is, anything inside that block extends the base template. If you put anything outside of that block, what exactly would it be extending?
However, if you put content outside the block intentionally, remember that you can define multiple blocks. This comes in great for things like extra scripts for specific layouts, etc. So, for example, here is a sample baseof.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>

{{partial "site-head.html" . }}
{{ partial "site-header.html" . }}

{{block "main" . }}
{{ partial "site-footer.html" . }}
{{ partial "site-scripts.html" . }}

{{ block "addscripts" . }}
{{ end }}
You can then "define" both main and addscripts in individual pages. You can set conditionals for additional scripts based on front matter, etc, etc. There is a ton of flexibility here...

The Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) says it will recover most of the losses it reported in its 2011 financials totaling N2.3 trillion.
In an interview with Channels Television, the chief executive of the corporation, Mr Mustafa Chike-Obi stated further that the loss was expected, owing to the huge amount of funds pumped into the banks that were rescued in the 2009 financial crisis.
He added that contributions made by the commercial banks and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) into AMCON's sinking fund, will improve the corporation's balance sheet for the 2012 financial year.
AMCON, last week reported a N2.37 trillion loss after tax, three years after it was set up to absorb the bad debts of banks in the aftermath of a financial crisis.

Concurrent Zero Knowledge in the Bounded Player Model
In this paper, the authors put forward the Bounded Player Model for secure computation. In this new model, the number of players that will ever be involved in secure computations is bounded, but the number of computations has no a priori bound. Indeed, while the number of devices and people on this planet can be realistically estimated and bounded, the number of computations these devices will run cannot be realistically bounded. They stress that in the Bounded Player model, in addition to no a priori bound on the number of sessions, there is no synchronization barrier, no trusted party, and simulation must be performed in polynomial time.

The beauty of stone
by tszmei , January 4, 2011—05:26 AM
Jade is stone;in fact crystal,jadeite,ruby,sapphire, et cetra are none other than stones.Their being deemed as precious stones and standing out from the same kind are nothing more than the excellent quality,the unique beauty which make them of position. Whether it is jade,or precious stones, they all have alluring color and luster comparable to that of gold. Therefore the desire of wearing the precious stones as to enhance our beauty are evoked. They are categorized as jewelry and are treasured up for fear of damaging it. We tend to overlook some stones which candidly expose themselves in the wide- open area and undergo the endless erosion,severe test by rain and wind. All the effeminacy and luxury are scaled off and the austere spirit manifests. This is a kind of natural wonder which is beyond the creation of manpower.
People who like to collect such kind of natural wonder mostly love the eroded stones produced from the provinces at Tai Woo county and Ying De county in China. These kinds of stones lie in water near the waterfront so the quarry workers have to dive in the water to chisel the stones of groteque shapes with their iron hammers and chisels. If the stones are really big ,it would be bundled up with thick ropes and winched out of water by the apparatuses installed on ships. The type of stones,with criss-coss grains all over the bodies, because of the swash of stormy waves make the surface covered with a lot of concave holes,be named as ___the holes of billiards___. The large rocks would be choosen as the rockeries placed in the courtyards or gardens allowing some majestic feeling be added to the charming sights. As for the small rocks,placing on the teapoys or decorating the bonsai would be applicable to the enjoyment of admiring the beauty. Whether it is rockery or intricate stone,it should have a proclivity of vicissitudinous charges and then would suit the taste for particular appreciation. Some arty virtuosi heard that somewhere the famous garden fell into disuse and had some old rockeries for sale,or they noticed some stones bearing the inscriptions of some celebrities being brought to market; they would offer a high price to buy it. In fact,such kind of stones is the same as that in the mountains or at the wilds,for they are exposed to the weather in the same way.As there is no difference of the stones,so why should we separate the old from the new?
What is the criteria do we use when judging the quality of the stones for appreciation? Ancient stone evaluative terminologies are penetrant,thin,wrinkled,leakage,ugly,stubborn,clumsy. Judging from the adjectives, the traits of the rockery are insulated with the elegant,splendid ambiances,and we also do not want to be linked with such descriptions. This is something out of the compass of human power, and should be ascribed to the extremely fine craftmanship of Mother Nature. Man with the superiority of its own wits established the modern world invested with our form of values, we habitually thinking , planning and persuing the goal in life according with the established orientation. We are accustomed to the complacencies of the pursuit of well being and blissfulness,being under the impression that we are the ruler of the existing world.Only when nature bring its mightiness into full play,destroying our constructions and paralyzing our transportations, then we would realize that who Is truly the master. Those wrinkled thin rockery,ugly clumsy stone is the masterpiece of nature who finished it effortlessly. Thus masterpiece is a microcosm of the real circumstances outside our comfort zone. Placing it in our own created little world, the meteorology of nature would be led into our living environments.
The stone collectors besides knowing how to choose stones,they also have to know how to arrange them. Some stones should be placed on the ebony pedestals,some rocks should be put in the container with water,that should not be misplaced. Moreover,the ebony pedestal with stone should be put on small table adjacent to the bright window;while the stone in basin should be situated at the winding balustrade. To speak of the stones of the bonsai, only those showing stratiform resembling the folds of mountains could manifest the momentum of nature;what is more the set-up of the bonsai should also be attentive. The flowers and plants growing on the stratified rockery should be compact with vigorous branches,and futhermore even a small spot of moss,a little stem of grass should also be laid out meticulously. With all these elaborations facing the bonsai, our ideological levels transcending the boundaries of the physical environment,get into contact with the vast ,boundless space of thousand miles away.
Therefore not only the glittering stones of the quintessence of mother earth are valuable,but those recorded the vestige of ancient history with the leakages and sores are also priceless.The long distant past, the time scale over which unpreditable changes occurred in matters left them retaining some indefinate duende. Ancients had a saying:the millenary turpintine dropped into the ground and turned to be amber.Also said that: the ice which had gone through thousands of years, changed into crystal. It is a metaphor about the spotless beauty of the unflawed limpidity of ice anologious to that of crystal. Such glacial beauty as a goddess of northland ,coupled with the remote indistinctness, seems having an aura of mystery. No wonder the mediums would use crystals as a vehicle to communicate with the unknown territories. Refering to practicality,in China at the Stone Age there were tools making of crystals,which have been produced at many places,almost in all provinces, in China. The rough classification of crystals is ___the nothern black,the southern white___. The southern area of China produces clear,colorless stones which are hard and as shiny as glass; the northern area of China produces crystals black in color. Some crystals are purple for the mixture of manganese;when the mixture is plant that the color would be dark brown being named citrine. Furthermore,the crystal with the mixture of other kind of stones, cross-grained, it__™s popular name is___haired crystal___, and the course-grained is named ___bristle crystal___. All the above mentioned is the main sorts of crystal which is a kind of common and ancient gems. China is a vast territory with abundant resourse, where produces many kind of stone with different temperaments, but only one kind of stone which would consubstantiate with human as an organic whole. Only jade was deemed having the affinitive nature with human.
One of the reasons is that jade is moderate in temperament with mild body temperature. It is suitable for wearing all the year round compared with other precious stones which should only be wore in summer, especially not to be wore in winter. It is because other stones__™ cold nature with the indistinguishable biting chill which could harm the health of the wearer. The innate sleek and warm character is the inherent virtues of jade.Such properties of jade could better the blood circulation of human body,could milden our nature,that was why the ancient people wore jades all the time. The other precious jewelry attracts people__™s attention by it__™s glaring luminosity. Ancients thought that such splendors were the remaining internal heat skimming over the surfaces of the stones,and such light is pleasing to the eye,not to the heart. The glory of ancient jade being latent within is a kind of solemn and quiet aura assimilating with the awe-inspiring bearing restrained inside of a sage who preformed an accommodating manner. Therefore the integrity of jade is much more superior to the general stones ten million times.
The photo shows a cup shaped container with the height of 12.3cm which was carved and polished from a jade. This is an antique of Han dynsaty(from B.C.206 to A.D.220).From it__™s partial erosion with brown and purple color,we can see that it is an unearthed relic,not being handed down from generation to generation. This was originally a treasure of the collection of Qing court;now in the possession of the Palace Museum. It is a wine container named ___Vessel with Phoenix and One-legged Dragon Motif___.Mostly the unearthed jades were furnishings and accessories,so it is rare to excavate a whole piece of jade curved in the shape of an utensil. Moreover,both the body and lid of the vessel without damage were skilfully and delicately carved the low relief of the variant dragon and phoenix pattern, contrasting with the three-dimensional sheep heads__™carving which symbolizes good luck.The handle of the vessel is cloud-shaped form and the bottom of it are three beast__™s legs. The whole vessel is the combined craftsmanship of sculpture,relief and linear engraving.It embodied the beauty of pristine and sprightly,which being constituted in a harmonious whole. It is a national heirloom for there is no other one in China. Furthermore,the finishing touch on the translucent aura of mystery by the hand of human,with the earthy flavour of it__™s being excavated from underground; consequently, there is certain inwardness between human and jade.They are interrelated and interacted on each other.
Therefore the ancients thought that jade is a living material and have strong affinity with human. When the jade was lay hidden in the earth,it would absorb the immediate elements into its body.Then the action of acidification in its body occurred,which led to the loss of properties of itself after a considerable period of time. There is a saying in the past: The buried jade,in the course of one thousand years, it__™s quality is similar to stone;two thousand years,it__™s appearance is associable with decayed bone;six thousand years without exacavation,it would decompose as mud. However no matter how rotten the jade is, as long as being unearthed,in the caress of human__™s hand, the character of jade would gradually recover. When the jade comes to life again,it would evacuate the differentiated matters out of its body,or would melt the absorbents into its veins,and then produce a kind of pulp to fill in the gaps. As a result,the original color of the jade changes,or beautiful patterns appears. Undergoing such noticable transformation in it__™s appearance, the whole body of the jade becomes even more grossy,much more glittering and translucent,coruscating extraordinary splendor. In the past,such action of transforming was named as___ casting off one__™s old self___,which in a certain sense is quite similiar with the transfiguration of a mortal who thoroughly remould oneself is reborn as a celestial being.
Therefore nothing can rival the sublime status of jade in ancient China, and the extent of using jade in daily life is vast,from the important affairs of state,such as sacrificial rites,grand ceremonies,royal engagements,the seals for the emperors,ect.,to folkways and civil life,for instance,betrothal gifts,study apparatuses,accessories,tableware, wine containers,even the ornaments of houses and chariots. Jade had blended in every aspects of life far back in history and could be considered as the prevailing custom of a given time. Therefore at that time wearing jade was the necessity for gentlemen and they would not put away the wearing jades without reason. Besides,the close affiliation of jade and human was personified as an affinity between oneself and the Sage whose virtuous spirit redolent of pristine ideals would always remind us of the continuing efforts of inner cultivation. By making unremitting efforts, we would some day turn into a Sage. Nowadays, in this modern world,most people adore the flashy beauty,and few people have a strong admiration for the inner beauty of the pristine stone.

The poem(s) are below...
All in one faded-black day
(but let None forget)
In my arms, her body lay
(my life was the price to pay)
A tragedy, through the lack of humanly shame
(do they know pain)
My darkly colleen has to suffer no more
(Robert nor do you)
Let me die
(please hear my haunted cries)
If I can not see Sophie tonight
(live on with my grey)
I'm just a mess of despairing words
And broken nerves
Another mourning, afflicted sight
(through decay, love can remain)
Solace, sympathy are just more lies
She is all I need
Until you decide she is just another sadist's toy
My Angel, why did you have to fly so far away
My Angel, just let one feather stay
My Angel has flown away
My Angel, why did you have to fly so far away
My Angel, just let one feather stay
My Angel has flown away
(My body is amortal, die I may,
Together, our hearts will forever stay)

Poem written near a Cemetery 2 of 2
On 13th February 2012
But nowhere in that cemetery I could find,
Flowers smiling on any Stone, Tomb or grave,
Whatever big may have been,
The status of those, who were buried there,
With or without any pomp and show.
Some of these yester year stars,
Were laid here with a simple stone,
Standing as a symbol of their death,
Without telling their simple stories and
And without telling much about their lores,
I came back again after searching a lot,
On the grave of this noble soul,
The small flowers were still busy in,
Swinging and dancing,
On the stone of Sophia Rees.
Those wild little yellow flowers,
Had called me from a distance,
Perhaps to convey the story,
Of this unknown noble soul.
I counted those tiny yellow flowers
They were six only all swinging in the air,
To find on whose stone they were blooming,
I started reading,
The faint and dim stone lines,
Where the engraved letters had lost their ink,
Wiped away by the passing of time.
But the first three lines,
Made me to stand on my toes,
I could read very clearly,
In the clear upper lines it was written,
"Sophia Rees Owen 31 years old
left this world on 27th November 1834,
Leaving her husband and six children.
She was a sincere friend and
Truly attached wife and Most devoted mother".
Something told me silently in my mind,
Why on this grave only,
The Nature had bloomed,
A bunch of smiling and dancing flowers,
This unknown lady of yester years
Was perhaps a noble and kind hearted soul.
May be Sophia was a lover of Nature,
May be a Poet, a Philosopher, a Painter or
May be she was a wonderful Singer,
Who wanted to sing some beautiful songs,
But before she could have tuned her instruments,
Was called by the God in Heaven.
What a strange thing it was,
To come and to watch in that graveyard,
Those little flowers and the grave of Sophia Rees,
Which I had noticed unknowingly,
From across the boundary,
While I was passing on the road.
These lines are my homage to that noble soul,
Who is spreading her smiles even to this day,
As if through these flowers,
She was singing some of her most dear song.
Kanpur India 13& 14th Feb 2012
"Text of the Stone on Sophia Rees Owen"
"In the memory of Sophia Rees Owen
The beloved wife of H T Owen Esqr.
Of the H C Civil Service, who died on the 27th

Her loss. She was a sincere friend, a truly

At night I see your smiling face,
As if the chains of our love were unbroken.
Your look of utter devotion pervades my sensibilities.
I know it's true for many have said,
That you died loving me alone.
Yet you never fought hard enough to let us know.
I guess that secret has gone with you forever.
I cry frequently when I reflect on those irretrievable moments.
At times I feel imprisoned in a bubble that no one can penetrate
Memories however can never be erased.
I have constant flashbacks to those days so many years ago.
I see you in my mind's eye,
You enthralled at the sight of your firstborn.
And your words "that's my precious"
Seem to reverberate in my brain.
Are you now watching over me?
After all, we were once man and wife.

So frigid was her immaculate body
Her last second in screams is all
I can see Love's revenge was my guilt
With you I'd rather let you die with Bound hands
Without you, Marie, like the psychopath's dream
Death is all that I can see; All that could redeem
Did anyone ask
Did anyone recall
The sweet taste of the poison
The swift slash of the knife
he penetration of the lead
The pain of her decaying heart
I can hear it's bellowing cries
But why can't you, Marie,
Hear my paranoid eulogies
Is the coffin too deep?
Was it so hard to solve
Was it so hard to see
That I strangled her so easily
My nails piercing her comely skin
Blood dripping like the pomegranate
I crushed with the shovel
I shattered her shins
The knife to slight her wrists
Didn't you see I did it all
The only witness
Couldn't say Is the coffin too deep?
The pain of her decaying hear
tI can hear it's bellowing cries
But why can't you, Marie,
Hear my paranoid eulogies
Is the coffin too deep?
Marie I cant stay
Earth is to cruel when
your coffin is to deep
Forever in death and in death alone
The pain of her decaying heart
I can hear it's bellowing cries
But why can't you, Marie,
Hear my paranoid eulogies
Is the coffin too deep?
You have gone down,
With the setting sun,
The shadow of you,
No longer hovers around,
Never to hear the beat of your feet,
Our touch of palms,
Can no longer meet,
No longer we hear,
The whisper of your voice,
God's cherished choice you are,
Your hour is here,
Your time has come,
This earth you once traversed,
Your seeds of love dutifully dispersed,
A peaceful pathway,
Leads to heaven's gate,
God has beckoned you,
There's no longer a wait.

The flowers
the flowers
are crying, you see,
as they cling to the wood
that encompasses me
and the heart that still loves
the now widow above
who will hopefully never forget
the husband
the husband
all covered in fleurs
who now sleeps in the earth
is still grateful to her
and the heart that still pines
for the lover enshrined
who has never once thought to regret
the moments
the moments
that love had endowed
the kisses
the kisses
that came with the vow
his lover
his lover
who will not allow
her memories--
to wither away,
unlike the fleurs
on destined day.

Dreamt of you last night
tossing and turning
reaching out
but you were no longer there
Pulled my pillow tight
snuggled farther inside my covers
was so empty and cold
not having you there
I've tried and tried to put you someplace else
try and act like I don't care
the only rest I get without drowning in there
Once again caught in your dream
you appear with that smile that brings me to tears
can still feel you wrapped around me
just like you were there.

I looked up to you and turned out just like you
You let everyone take advantage of you, me too
You didn't ask for anything in return
It went on for years and you still never learned
How could you be so strong?
Trying to fit in where you didn't belong
I loved the way you looked me in the eyes
Telling me you loved me as you began to cry
How could you be proud of me?
I didn't even graduate, I got my GED
Now that I need you, you won't answer the phone
You won't even open the door to come home
My life has been so painful in the last year
I need you more now than ever mother dear
No hugs, no kisses, no late night talks
No more going in town, no more walks
How can you leave your own child behind?
Leaving me in this world to seek and find
You promised you'd always be there
You said this while brushing my hair
In the last year, I got married and it fell apart
He committed adultery, got caught, and broke my heart
I need some advice on what to do
I need you to help pull me through
Again you said you'd never leave, never say goodbye
You broke your promise, but at least I know why
I miss you MOMMY, I miss your touch
God tell her I love her, tell her how much

Jon Huntsman Calls for 'Shared Sacrifice' (Where Have We Heard That Before?)
Filed Under Politics | 10 Comments
Jon Huntsman, the Obama administration's former Ambassador to China and an alleged Republican who is allegedly running for president, is going to be sued by Obama for copyright infringement if he's not careful.
Democrats already love him (and he hearts them back), but now that he's calling for "shared sacrifice" the Dems are going to get Chris Matthews-style leg thrills:
Where have we heard that "shared sacrifice" BS before? Oh yeah, from the guy currently golfing on the Vineyard and his wife who has reportedly spent about $10 million of taxpayers money on vacations all around the world.
Brilliant timing on your parroted empty rhetoric, Huntsman.
Maybe I'd be a little less putt off by him if he didn't give off such a mortician vibe.

What're you talking about? "Shared sacrifice" is totally unique and original! And since a Republican said it, we should all support it!
…I was gonna say more, but I nearly choked on the sarcasm.

The private sector has had to downsize and restructure to continue to survive in this economy. For some "Shared Sacrifice" how about the Federal Workforce get downsized by, oh, say, 9.1%?

"shared sacrifice = yoga "downward dog" position.
For those that may be unfamiliar. No thanks, we've already HAD easily three full YEARS of 'shared' sacrifice. And notice, never a MENTION of shared OPPORTUNITIES!!!
Let's ditch these pols behind. Let THEM continue their NLAGCGTW narrative -without- us!

Someone posted an ad on Craig's List directed at Michigan State University co-eds, describing himself as a wealthy gentlemen, seeking a young woman whom he could mentor and "share" his knowledge with. Meetings would be once a week and include dinner and entertainment. Once the mentoring and shared experiences of an evening per week are complete he would be willing to "share" his abundance of wealth on travel and extended vacations around the world.
With all of the "sharing" that Huntsman wants, I do believe he wrote this ad. Creepy!!!

by ANNE-LAURE AUTIN
Once your parents pass away, you realize you're next in line. My father was diagnosed with terminal cancer at the tender age of 64. Blood Line investigates how his inescapable disease and death affected not only our lives but also communication and identity. I saw my father's pain and felt my own. My subjects are my daughters, my flesh and blood, his descendants. He experienced, I processed, they embody.
*This monograph will be released and shipped in May 2017
9 x 10" perfect bound, softcover
48 pages, 18 plates
This monograph is available in two options:
OPTION I > Book Only (signed) - $28
OPTION II > Book (signed) with 8 x 10" archival pigment print, limited edition of 10 - $100
Anne-Laure Autin is a French artist residing in the Netherlands. Fascinated by the philosophical concepts of universality and relativism as a teenager, she studied theoretical mathematics and holds an MSc from the University of Leiden (NL). She is always inspired by contrasting juxtapositions, and embraces the duality of her search for truth and her love of human nature, where no logic is apparent. In her staged work, she seeks out the deepest, most candid and raw emotions from her subjects. Her sets are disarmingly simple so that the viewer senses true human connection. In reconciling authenticity and beauty, she makes conceptual work that is both soulful and highly intimate.
Autin's work has been exhibited internationally, in the USA at the Corden Potts Gallery in San Francisco, at the Center for Fine Arts Photography in Colorado, Soho Photo Gallery, as well as in Canada, in the UK at the Brighton Photo Fringe, and at the Berlin Foto Biennale. Her images have been featured on LensCulture, Musée Magazine, L' Oeil de la Photographie and Don't Take Pictures. She was a Critical Mass finalist in 2016 as well as a BPF OPEN16 Solo finalist.

The GAA's great brand divide
As Dublin's blue bandwagon continues its funding drive, many counties are struggling to secure sponsorship deals
How the other half live. As Dublin footballers jetted out to sunny Florida and the idyllic Cayman Islands yesterday and the county signed up to a partnership with Aer Lingus as their official airline carrier, it emerged that up to eight counties currently have no commercial sponsor with the new GAA season just over one month away.
The newly crowned All-Ireland champions have been engaged in a fundraising drive that could eventually yield close to €250,000 between sales of their commemorative DVD, their book 'A Rare Auld Season' and the €1,000 they are charging for commercial visits with the Sam Maguire Cup and representatives of the team.
With companies like Aer Lingus keen to attach themselves to the blue bandwagon that has been picking up pace relentlessly since September, the Dublin pot is expected to have a carry-over that will help them to fund additional ventures in 2012.
No wonder the recent Strategic Report, entitled 'Unleashing the Blue Wave' proposed that Dublin should explore multi-sponsorship at national level, a concept that would allow counties to stitch on additional, albeit smaller logos, to their apparel.
But Down, Sligo, Louth, Roscommon, Carlow and Westmeath are all currently seeking new backers. Meath may also be in the market in the coming weeks if Comer Group decide not to continue, while Galway football will continue with the Cancer Care West logo on their shirt in 2012.
No money is paid for this link by the charity, but a mutual fundraising drive has paid dividends for both parties. It was developed after they failed to secure a sponsor earlier this year in the wake of Aer Arann's withdrawal.
A glance at the current arrangements show that only five county sponsors have links to the construction industry, a far cry from the boom days when sponsoring a county team was another badge of distinction for building giants.
Two are in Northern Ireland, Creagh Concrete in Antrim and Tracey Concrete in Fermanagh. Slate company Tegral are still with Kildare, plant machinery firm Pat O'Donnell are with Clare and timber processors Glennon Brothers are new Longford sponsors.
Three of the counties in the market for new sponsors have just ended links with hotels, who are opting not to renew their involvement, another sign of a very challenging economic climate.
Loyalty remains a big factor in many cases with players like Tegral, Kerry Group, Avonmore (Kilkenny), Pat O'Donnell and Supermacs (Galway) all involved for the best part of two decades.
A majority of county boards contacted admitted that they have had to take a significant funding hit over the last three to four years.
In some cases that hit has been in excess of 50pc, but average is more likely to be between 30 and 50pc.
Some counties have privately admitted that they have not yet been paid for 2011 sponsorship agreements. Most counties can point to annual revenue from their main sponsor of between €50,000 and €100,000.
But as some of the smaller counties struggle, the market for bigger counties remains reasonably buoyant.
Vodafone's sponsorship of Dublin over six years is the blue-chip arrangement that could nett close to €6m.
The inter-county sponsorship landscape...
Cork -- Enjoy one of the most lucrative sponsorships -- with O2 -- that there is in Gaelic games.
Clare -- Pat O'Donnell is Clare's long-serving benefactor and the plant machinery supplier will continue in 2012 with all teams.
Tipperary -- Skoda and Tipperary signed a three-year deal prior to the 2011 championship that was estimated to be worth in the region of €200,000.
Waterford -- Mobile phone providers '3' have been in situ for two years, and look set to continue into 2012.
Kerry -- No change. Kerry Group continue their long-standing relationship with the Kingdom.
Limerick -- Sporting Limerick is the name, but JP McManus is the sponsor and has been for some years now. The money is already in the bank for next year.
Dublin -- The best blue-chip sponsorship in the game. Vodafone began a six-year deal with Dublin for 2010 thought to be worth close to €1m per year.
Carlow -- Stone Developments have withdrawn leaving Carlow GAA searching for a main supporter.
Westmeath -- Kinnegad's Hilamar Hotel have withdrawn after several years and Westmeath are currently in the market.
Kilkenny -- Glanbia, through the Avonmore brand, have been long-term sponsors of Kilkenny and will continue to the end of 2012 at least.
Longford -- Timber processing company Glennon Brothers have taken over from Longford Arms as sponsor in the midlands county.
Laois -- MW Hire have been sponsors for three years and will continue for another two.
Meath -- Meath are currently trying to establish if Comer Group will continue beyond the current two-year deal which has expired.
Louth -- McCabe Builders' deal with Louth is at an end after five years and their finance committee are exploring their options.
Kildare -- Tegral have been Kildare sponsors since the rules were relaxed in 1991 to allow branding on jerseys and have committed in 2012, with a new jersey already launched.
Offaly -- Carrolls Cuisine remain Offaly's only ever GAA team sponsors.
Wicklow -- Brennan Hotels are entering the third year of three with Wicklow.
Wexford -- Wexford enjoy sponsorship from the sports equipment retailers Sportservers, who have committed for another year.
Cavan -- Kingspan remain loyal sponsors of the team and Breffni Park. The deal rolls over from year to year.
Down -- The withdrawal of Canal Court Hotel in Newry has left Down in the market.
Armagh -- Morgan Fuels have been sponsors of Armagh for a decade now and have recently added the Athletic Grounds to their portfolio.
Monaghan -- Bankers Investec are entering into the second year of a three-year deal.
Derry -- Negotiations with bookmaker chain Ladbrokes are continuing in the hope that a three-year deal can extend.
Tyrone -- Transport giants Target Express came in two years ago to replace Rocwell Water. That term has ended, but the expectation is that they will continue in 2012.
Fermanagh -- Tracey Concrete are one of the longest sponsors of an inter-county team in Gaelic games. Their current term has ended and is now under review.
Donegal -- Donegal Creameries continue to be backers of Donegal football.
Antrim -- Creagh Concrete are on board for another year. Beyond that is up for discussion.
Galway -- No commercial sponsor for the footballers, but Cancer Care West are partners for a second year after the departure of Aer Arann. The link has proved successful, however, with a fundraising measure netting substantial money for the Galway Football Board. Supermacs continue a long relationship with the hurlers.
Sligo -- Since sponsorship was introduced Clifford Electrical was a guaranteed backer in Sligo, but after 20 years that relationship is now over.
Mayo -- Elvery's remain a constant partner to Mayo football.
Roscommon -- Another county recently plunged into the chase for new backers after Siteserve withdrew from sponsorship ventures in 2012.
Leitrim -- Bush Hotel are expected to announce a one-year extension of their sponsorship next month.

The Vijayanagar Empire
The Vijayanagar Empire
The Vijyanagar kingdom was started in South India on a humble note to resist Muslim invasion of the Hoysala territory by Mallik Kafur's destructive campaign. However, within fifty years, the Vijayanagar (a.k.a. Vijayanagara) kingdom came to be known as a powerful empire and reigned the Indian southern peninsula for nearly 200 years. It required four Muslim kingdoms to come together to destroy the unwieldy large empire at the battle of Talikota.
The big empire was visited by many foreigners who left vivid descriptions of the prosperity, strong powerful army and busy maritime trade. (See: Hu-En-Tsang.)
Their capital was at Vijayanagar on the banks of Tungabhadra river, which today (2000) contains many great ruins.
Krishnadevaraya of Vijayanagar was a great patron of art and literature and an accomplished poet himself in Telugu. The Hampi ruins are scattered over the area of fourteen square miles known as world's biggest open-air museum.

I've had my CRX-1 flatbar road bike for about 5 years now and it's great. Used to riding a mountain bike with gnarly wheels, I got sick of all the sissy road-bike punctures week after week. Felt like a girl.
It took me a year of flat tyres and walking around the suburbs looking for bike shops before I discovered heavy-but-tough Gatorskin tyres.
With these beauties, I've had one puncture in about 3 years. They're well worth the $60+ for each tyre when you consider that only 4 years ago I was getting punctures every – second – bloody – day. Whenever I ask the guy in the shop to replace my Gatorskins, he flatly refuses. "Not yet, Mate. there's another coupla years in those buggers!" I'm actually looking forward to having my bloody tyres changed.I don't really care about speed. But if you pump these puppies up to about 100psi, you can feel the road. A lot of people don't like that. Some prefer the bouncy-bum bounce of seat-pole shockies or the smoochy squidge of a thick gelatinous seat saddling their glutes. Not me. I like the feel of the road.
Some say Gatorskins give a harsh ride, but I feel safer when I can feel every single crack and bump in the road. Makes me feel I'm living dangerously on my 22kmh jaunt.
Yes Siree! I love my Gatorskins.
The other alternative is the Armadillo brand . . . famous for their reinforced, toughened walls for when you're really fanging it around the corners.
Either brand is good, but you won't come away with change from about $120 for the pair. Unless someone knows something I don't (which is highly likely).
The extra weight (they are tough and a bit heavy is saved by not having to take a bike pump with you!
One thing I hate to see trackside is a poor bloke changing his tyre.
"Got a pump, Mate?"
"Sorry, Pal. Don't carry one."
"No need – with … Gatorskins!"

When you think of Wyoming, you think of wide open spaces, cattle, and an independent spirit! Here are some phrases that you're NOT going to hear Wyomingites say.
Volunteerism is no stranger to the city of Cheyenne. More information is being given to the public on how they can do that and where.
If you're looking for something to do in Cheyenne this weekend, look no farther than Cheyenne's LCCC Shawn Dubie Memorial Rodeo.
Here are the results for Sunday, July 27, 2014 final rodeo.
On Saturday night, Cheyenne Frontier Days rounded out the night shows with a final performance by Tim McGraw---but before he took the stage, they announced two big acts coming to the Daddy of 'Em All in 2015. Country crooners Keith Urban and Miranda Lambert will be two of the acts we anticipate seeing next year.
The Daddy of 'Em All took the night shows up a notch with a mix of nostalgia and cross-over country when Joan Jett and Kid Rock took the stage on Friday night.
They do more than just hold up your britches. Belt buckles are identifiers for cowboys--trophies, awards, symbols of pride and expertise. They're qualifications. And at the Daddy of 'Em All, each cowboy has something on display.
The best variety in western footwear was seen at Cheyenne Frontier Days this year. cowboy boots, moccasins, motorcycle boots...black, brown, pink, stitched, painted, fringed, and more.
It was a great day of results at the rodeo at Frontier Park for the 118th "Daddy of 'Em All".
That one. The one with the big tongue, beady eyes, and look of despair. If I don't come home with this overstuffed dog from the ring toss game, my life might, in fact, be over.
$30 and one winning ring later, I take the dog home from the carnival grounds. Victory is mine.
