Artisan: Thistle Farms, Nashville
Founded in 1997 in Nashville, Tennessee, Magdalene is a two-year residential community for women with a history of prostitution and drug addiction. Founded not just to help a sub-culture of women, but to help change the culture itself, Magdalene stands in solidarity with women who are recovering from sexual abuse, violence, and life on the streets, and who have paid dearly for a culture that buys and sells women like commodities.
Thistle Farms began in 2001 as the cottage business of Magdalene, with the aim of helping women gain much-needed job skills and learn responsibility and cooperation. By hand, the women of Magdalene create natural bath and body products that are as kind to the environment as they are to the body. Into every product goes the belief that true freedom starts with healing and that love can change lives.
Why the thistle? Thistles grow on the streets and alleys where the women of Magdalene walked. Considered a weed, they have a deep tap root that can shoot through thick concrete and survive drought. And in spite of their prickly appearance, their royal and soft purple center makes the thistle a mysterious and gorgeous flower.
Artisan Sheila
While serving in jail, Sheila remembered a woman she had met at an outreach event for Magdalene, and wrote a letter to the judge asking if she could enter the program. The judge granted her request and changed her life forever. Sheila says, "My life has changed since Magdalene. I own my own home; I am married, and I have a baby. I am cancer-free. I had breast cancer while in the program -- My life is full now. Magdalene is what gave me my life; it is the greatest thing that has ever happened to me."
Artisan Grace
Grace came to Magdalene after using drugs and prostituting for 23 years. A mother of four, and a grandmother of eight, Grace says that working for Thistle Farms has changed her life. "I am an artist; I draw, I write poetry. Magdalene has given me a wonderful life -- the best life I've ever had. I am blessed to live in the brand-new transition house. I give thanks to God and Magdalene."
Artisan Katrina
Katrina, the mother of a seventeen-year-old daughter, walked the streets of Nashville prostituting and using drugs for nearly two decades. Now clean and working with Thistle Farms, Katrina says that she never thought her life would be this wonderful. "I now live a happy, healthy, and productive life. I went from living with my mom to living on the streets to owning my own brand new home. I love walking in the door of my house. It's my world. I never thought my life would be this amazing.

Picture: Natalie Portman - Natalie Portman arrives at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on a flight from Paris - Los Angeles, California, United States - Saturday...
Natalie Portman's passionate kiss with Chris Hemsworth in the new Thor movie has been exposed as a fake as the actor was actually embracing his real life wife in the scene.
The Oscar winner plays the Aussie hunk's love interest Dr. Jane Foster in this year's (13) superhero sequel Thor: The Dark World, but she was unable to attend a number of re-shoots as she was busy working on a new project.
Rather than hire another actress to stand in for Portman for a kissing scene, producers asked Hemsworth's wife Elsa Pataky to take her place.
Portman says, "It was for re-shoots (after the film was finished) and he was working in Hong Kong and I couldn't get there because I was working on my own film. So they put his wife in my wig and costume, that's why it is so passionate. It was such a perfect solution, wasn't it."

"What can I do to get better?"
Every trainer hears that question like Dan Quinn hears voices. The usual answers are "use less strength when you roll." Or "do some road work." Or "keep your hands up." All that stuff really doesn't matter though. Half the people that ask the question are looking for a short cut; what they are really saying is "You don't have to remember my name as I not going to be here next month."
The real answer to the question is don't quit. It is a cliché, but a black belt really is a white belt who never quit.
When a fight gets tough, one of the things I look hardest for as a ref is the moment a guy breaks. It isn't math, but some aspect of the body or face lets you know the fighter no longer wants to be in the cage; he is not a fighter any more. So I get him out as early as I can thereafter.
I have never been able to define exactly what is it you see. Is it a turning away from the opponent? Some loss of muscle tension? A change of facial expression? I don't know. Like Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart said of defining hard core pornography "I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced within that shorthand description; and perhaps I could never succeed in intelligibly doing so. But I know it when I see it."
These days hard core porn would have to involve a horse, and death (thanks for posting that Joe Rogan). But a fighter quitting doesn't just go back to MMA and boxing, it doesn't just go back to the Roman Gladiators, it goes back to the first time one living cell tried to destroy another over some choice molecule in the primordial soup.
Most fighters fight hard to the bitter end, but maybe 20% or so mentally quit – they want to be somewhere else. Some fighters have never quit. Sakuraba's clavicle is sticking out like an Aliens facehugger got lost on the way to the stomach, Renzo Gracie's arm is out of socket like Mr Fantastic, Forrest Griffin cannot remember his own name, and they don't tap.
I am not blogging this as, to quote Eazy E, a mother f****** role model. I was doing light MMA last week with a kid who has a fight next week and I got tired. My muscles were heavy and getting worse, chest was starting to hurt. I thought of the green kid, thirty pounds less than me, taking me down and punching me in the melon, and that it would be embarrassing. So I quit.
I didn't stop and go sit down. Instead I fed him an underhook, whizzered, held onto his other glove fingers inside illegally as hard as I have since someone tried to take my favorite Tonka truck at age five. Then I threw cheap shots. What I was supposed to do was keep pummeling, fight to get each other to the wall, throw knees, etc. But instead I quit and held on.
I quit because I was tired, and didn't want to be embarrassed by a little guy. Vince Lombardi said some stupid things, like "No one is ever hurt." But he also told the truth and never so much as when he said "Fatigue makes cowards of us all."
And that holds the key.
Gameness is one of the prized qualities in fighting. The will to win greater than the will to live. Many qualities in fighting are innate. Punching power is innate. Reach is innate. But gameness is earned, through the degree you push during physical training.
You are going to be doing PT or running or rolling hard in the next week. You will have the choice to ease back or push. If you push, you will get better faster stronger, but much more importantly, you will become just a little more determined, a little gamer. There is nothing more important.
Your success is determined not by the quality of the facility, the level of competitors produced there, or by the knowledge of your trainer. Your success is determined by how hard you work for how long. You may be training in a garage with some wrestling team buddies, and someone else may be at Ultimate Couture in a room with seven UFC fighters, but if you never quit, and he does, you will win.
If it was easy to never quit, everyone would do it. It is not a goal, it is part of a process. It is the process.

Thesaurus Main Entry: gameness Part of Speech: noun Definition: courage courage (Dictionary)the quality of mind or spirit that enables a person to face difficulty, danger, pain, etc., without fear; bravery.the thesaurus definition of gameness is courage AND it looks pretty hard to argue
9/25/09 5:58 AM by Orion
It takes courage to join an army and go fight on the front lines... many courageous soldiers have turned tail and run as soon as a mortar shell hit close to them.Courage does not equal gameness.

Share on Facebook Share on Twitter 0 Shares iStockphoto.com We don't know who came up with the myth that women love a heartbroken man, because we certainly don't. We squirm at this phrase because of the personal baggage it implies. If your ex shattered you, then we can't help but wonder how much you still dwell on the past and if you have any issues (like a fear of commitment) just waiting to come out. Everyone has experienced painful moments in relationships, and we understand that. But we're not still moping about our former failures, and neither should you.

Live, Love, Laugh
Where to start, I have a hard time sitting down to talk about myself. Shy and quiet are often words not used to describe me however I am until I get to know someone. I'm a nurse and I love my career. My greatest accomplishment in life has been my 17 year year old son. He has been my life and it's come to a point that although he still needs his mom he is growing older and it's time for me to venture out into the dating world again and start to live my life. So here I am never thought I would find myself on an online dating page but I'm at a lost of where to meet a decent person these days. I want to find someone who can make me laugh and enjoys life. Someone who will care about me as much as I care about them.

Customer Reviews of Microsoft Neoprene Laptop Sleeve - up to 15.4" screens
Good for the money.4/19/2009
Although some people prefer carrying handles, this is better suited to protecting your computer *inside* a suitcase. Don't expect to pack cables or a power supply with the computer.
Great Value3/24/2009
I thought for the price I would take a chance ordering this online and have been very pleased with it. It really only has room for just the laptop but that also keeps it from being too bulky. I'm very satisfied.
Fits perfectly3/21/2009
So far, I have not traveled with my Dell Inspiron 6000, but this case fits the notebook perfectly and is padded very well. The handles make it easy to carry and I am looking forward to traveling with it. The construction seems to be very high in quality.
Microsoft Neoprene 15" laptop case3/11/2009
Very nice case. Good padding on the inside and the handles make it easy to carry. Construction is excellent and it is attractive.
Barely got my money's worth3/10/2009
Great _simple_ sleeve but one of the handles was cut during manufacturing. I had to have someone stitch it up and take a lighter to it so it wouldn't fray. Wasn't too happy about that. Other than that I have to agree with all the other positives that people have mentioned. Just remember that it is a *sleeve* and not a case/bag/etc. BTW, if you're like me and not a fan of Microsoft it is simple to use an utility knife to remove all the Microsoft labels. ;)
Good value2/28/2009
This is a great product for the price. Like other reviewers, the only negative I find is that it is not quite large enough to carry anything extra. I wish that I had invested a little more and got one large enough to hold the charger, etc.
Great Buy10/27/2008
This neoprene sleeve is a very nice laptop case for the money. Fits a 15.4 inch screen perfect. The only negative is a lack of extra pockets to store anything besides the laptop. The otherside of that is that anything can be shoved inside the neroprene as it does stretch.
Sturdy case8/31/2008
This laptop sleeve is great and fits my 15.4" T42 Thinkpad wonderfully. There is a little extra space around it but the inside EVS bumpy lining does a great job of holding it in place without the laptop jiggling around. I ride to and from work everyday on my bike with a messenger bag, and having this sleeve makes me worry less about my laptop's safety. The full-length zipper across the top makes accessing and stowing the laptop really easy, and the handles are a great touch for when I'm slinging it around without my messenger bag.
Great for the price7/9/2008
Sturdy product but is not quite custom fit to my laptop, leaving a gap. Certainly acceptable for the price.
My new laptop case6/25/2008
This is the best case I've ever bought!!!!!!!
Great sleeve4/29/2008
Awesome sleeve. Very well constructed, with the "bubbles" fits the dell 15.4" perfectly, also fits the 14.1" got a few more of these for my friends.
Sturdy, simple case4/26/2008
I have found this case to work excellently as a simple, computer only case for a 15.4" laptop. The handles are sturdy and work well, and the padding adds a little bit of protection.
As Promised!3/31/2008
First I ordered this on a Wednesday and it was delivered that Friday! Buy dot com rules. Very nice sleeve for the price. Will be taking laptop on my trip to Key West in May via my Honda Goldwing Touring Bike!! This sleeve is just the thing to protect the laptop. Worth the money!
Nice design, great value3/15/2008
I bought this bag because I needed to easily carry my 15" laptop. Pros: it's slim, light, well built and seems to be protective enough for it's width. And it looks slick. Cons: there is no space for the charger or anything else that's a little bigger than a typical folder; also, it has no shoulder strap, if you want one.
Just what I was looking for3/13/2008
This laptop sleeve seems reasonably well constructed and fits my Dell Vostro 15.4" laptop computer like a glove. I just got it, so I don't know how durable it will be in the long run, but it provides some padding and protection, while not adding a lot of bulk. As usual, Buy.com's delivery was very speedy.
Awesome case.12/19/2007
There are a lot of the neoprene cases out there, and this is one of the best i've ever seen. Great build quality, and fits my Dell perfectly.1 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful

I believe that this team is so terrible that there's little prospect of cup contention within five years without taking educated risks. I think that playing it safe will get us to 8th place at best.
You can wait to make a trade until after Eller and Galchenyuk have proven themselves a capable #2 and #1, but if you make the trade now you're swining for the fences, because Plekanec should have higher value now, and a prospect now is worth more than a prospect in 2015.
You, on the other hand, hold the team in higher esteem, you believe it is already at the level of a bubble team, and thus a sequence of safe moves should be sufficient to propel us to the next stage.

United's Dreamliner makes inaugural flight
First paying passengers take wing from Houston
By Kiah Collier | November 5, 2012 | Updated: November 5, 2012 12:00am
Photo By Eric Kayne/MBIMembers of the media check out the amenities of the Dreamliner's cabin before the jet began a busy day: Houston to Chicago, back to Houston, then on to L.A.
Photo By Eric KayneUnited Airlines says its earnings were hurt because computer formulas allowed too many passengers to buy discounted tickets.
Amid the challenges posed by its 2010 merger with Houston-based Continental Airlines, United Airlines enjoyed a jubilant moment Sunday when it flew its first paying passengers aboard a new aircraft widely considered an industry game-changer.
Chicago-based United, which has struggled this year with technological glitches, poor on-time performance, consumer complaints and lagging revenue, is the first North American airline to receive the super-efficient Boeing 787 Dreamliner - the first commercial passenger jet with a fuselage, tail and wings made of mostly carbon fiber composite. At 7:28 a.m. Sunday, Flight 1116 to Chicago lifted off from Bush Intercontinental Airport.
United will maintain its growing Dreamliner fleet at its facilities at Bush Intercontinental, its largest hub, where about 60 pre-merger Continental pilots have also trained to fly the new aircraft on a flight simulator.
United and Continental airlines each ordered 25 of the mid-size, wide-body jetliners before merging. Because of production delays, United didn't receive its first 787-800 until September of this year.
"This is a very exciting day for United Airlines, a day we've waited a long time for, and we are delighted to have the 787 here," Jeff Smisek, president and CEO of the new United, said during a celebration that commenced at the crack of dawn at Gate 5 in Terminal E.
Use 20% less fuelx
Smisek described the Dreamliner as one of many planned investments to make United a better airline.
"If you want to be the world's leading airline, you need to have the world's leading airplane and we have that today in the new Boeing 787 Dreamliner," Smisek said.
With its lighter design and modern engines, the Dreamliner reportedly burns 20 percent less fuel than the similarly sized Boeing 767. Combined with the aircraft's lower seating capacity - there are 219 in three classes - the fuel efficiency makes it an ideal aircraft for international routes that don't generate enough demand to justify a jumbo jet that guzzles more fuel.
The Dreamliner's composite design also allows for passenger-pleasing features that industry insiders say may become a new standard. These include a much lower cabin altitude during flight, which is supposed to relieve headaches, dry eyes and other symptoms associated with time spent at high altitude. Windows are larger and ceilings are nearly 15 inches taller than those of the 767.
Aviation enthusiasts from across the country flew to Houston to catch Sunday's inaugural flight.
The Dreamliner is "definitely setting a new standard," said Thomas Lee, who works for a company that designed the Dreamliner's waste, water and electrical systems.
'A different airplane'
New Yorkers George Schaefer, a software developer, and Scot Titelbaum, a TV director, were planning to take the first leg of the flight and spend the day in Chicago before flying back to New York. After flying to Chicago, the plane returned to Houston before heading on to Los Angeles.
"It's a new design, it's new materials, it's just kind of a different airplane," said Titelbaum when asked why he wanted to fly it.
The second of five Dreamliners United expects to receive by year's end arrived last week and will start flying in the coming days as a spare, according to United, which announced it would fly its first batch domestically for a period of weeks before placing them on international routes in the spring.
A nonstop from Houston to Lagos, Nigeria, that United launched last year is scheduled to get Dreamliner service on Jan. 7.

"This year we've seen enterprises turn increasingly to Dell Services to help modernize and adapt their IT environments to manage the growing challenges and opportunities presented by these disruptive forces," said Suresh Vaswani, president, Dell Services, as Dell's CEO Michael Dell used his keynote at this year's Dell World conference in Austin, Texas to unveil a technical preview of its private cloud.
Customers from small businesses to large enterprises, across geographies and industries, selected Dell Services in 2012 to help transform IT and solve business problems, Vaswani explained.
"With industrialized service offerings that make it simple for customers to receive the level of service that's right for them, Dell Services offers consulting services and end-to-end capabilities that empower IT to achieve cost savings, growth and innovation," he added.
"At Dell World this week, we're talking about the disruptive forces that our customers are facing, such as cloud, social media, mobility, data and security, More and more, our customers are recognizing the power of information technology and services in enabling their business outcomes," said Viswani.
Examples of Dell Services milestones in 2012 include:
Security: Protecting Customers from Cyber Attacks
- Dell recently reported that security revenue for fiscal year 2013 third quarter was up 16 percent year over year. Dell SecureWorks has been a significant contributor, continuing to expand its role as a leader in Information Security Services since it was acquired by Dell in 2011. It now processes more than 30 billion events every day.
- In an effort to grow its services further for its customers, Dell SecureWorks is teaming with FireEye®, a leader in advanced threat protection, to protect customers from advanced cyber attacks. The company will manage and monitor the FireEye Malware Protection System™ (MPS) family of appliances. The FireEye MPS solution gives Dell SecureWorks customers an additional layer of protection against spear phishing attacks, web attacks and other obfuscated attacks typically used in stealthy and highly-sophisticated Advanced Persistent Threat campaigns, before they can compromise their targets. Dell SecureWorks will be the inaugural Managed Security Services Provider partner of the FireEye Certified Service Provider program.
Cloud: Ongoing Commitment to OpenStack
- Dell is seeing success from its focused efforts and investments in cloud, and reported that cloud revenue for fiscal year 2013 third quarter was up 30 percent year over year.
- As an early pioneer and an active leader in the OpenStack community, Dell is increasing its commitment to OpenStack as its open source cloud platform of choice for public and private cloud. While Dell will continue to offer outstanding overall solutions for any type of cloud that customers want to run, the company believes the open and compatible nature of OpenStack allows customers to take advantage of hybrid capabilities to move workloads between private and public clouds.
- Dell will build its private and public cloud platforms on OpenStack. As a first step, today Dell is releasing a technical preview of its private cloud, Dell Cloud Dedicated, with OpenStack.

Dell Cloud Dedicated with OpenStack also provides private cloud infrastructure that can meet the security and compliance needs of large enterprises and vertical organizations. Companies interested in participating in the technical preview of Dell Cloud Dedicated with OpenStack may email firstname.lastname@example.com for information.
- In addition to Dell's advancements with open source clouds, Dell also offers a VMware-based Dell Cloud Dedicated Service to deliver managed private cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service. Dell Cloud Dedicated offers all the benefits of cloud computing for customers with VMware requirements and is designed to meet the strict security and regulatory requirements of the most sensitive data, such as health care information.
- The company also has seen strong momentum in public cloud and its online ordering capability that enables customers to automatically provision Dell cloud and get up and running with preconfigured bundles in a matter of minutes. These bundles include security monitoring and around-the-clock support from Dell SecureWorks™, Quest Defender, SonicWall and Dell ProSupport™. Customers may also choose from additional options, including cloud security solutions from Trend Micro.
Application Modernization: Modernizing IT for Tomorrow's Business Needs
- Dell Services continues to enhance and refine its application modernization offerings to help customers reduce the cost of transitioning business-critical applications and data from legacy computing systems to open, standards-based platforms and agile cloud infrastructures. Since Dell acquired Clerity Solutions and Make Technologies earlier this year, Dell Services has won application modernization engagements across the globe, including assessments, re-hosting and re-architecture implementations.
- As organizations aim to better align business decisions with technology, Dell Portfolio Assessment services now offer the ability to define business capabilities and link them directly to technical assets. Dell Portfolio Assessment services help organizations better understand the application assets they have, create a direct link from the top-level business layer down to the applications' programs and source code, and create a comprehensive modernization roadmap for the future.
Global Support & Deployment: Proactive Support, Optimized Storage Solutions
- Dell is announcing new SupportAssist technology to provide proactive support for Dell PowerEdge servers, PowerVault storage arrays and PowerConnect switches. Available today to Dell ProSupport* customers, SupportAssist installs quickly to enable remote monitoring, automatic case creation and data collection, as well as proactive parts dispatch with customer consent.

The basic integration architecture, as defined by ESBs, hasn't changed for more than a decade. Most cloud integration providers still rely on an ESB architecture and their proprietary connectors. As a result, enterprise integration projects suffer from constraints of availability and reliability of these connectors that are not re-usable across other integration vendors. However, the rapid adoption of APIs and almost ubiquitous availability of APIs amongst most SaaS and Cloud applications are rapidly redefining traditional integration approaches and their reliance on proprietary connectors. ...

Settlement reached with Traditions Investment regarding mega-dairy
Attorney General Lisa Madigan is my hero and has announced the filing of a proposed settlement with Traditions Investment, LLC, concerning the construction of a mega-dairy operation here in Jo Daviess County. The settlement proposes to resolve a water pollution complaint filed last year with the Illinois Pollution Control Board against Traditions for allowing the discharge of leachate from silage stored at the site into the South Fork of the Apple River. The complaint also alleged a violation of permit requirements because Traditions failed to have the requisite National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit at the time the discharge occurred.
Traditions has informed the Illinois Attorney General's Office and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency that it is in the process of selling the site. The company is also removing the remaining liquid in the site's concrete basin and the adjoining earthen basin and applying it to agricultural land in accordance with applicable environmental regulations.
After battling this looming disaster for five years, we now get to heave a sigh of relief and a victory celebration. Before popping the first cork, we need to give thanks to some people who heard our cries for help.
Thank you to: Governor Pat Quinn, Attorney General Lisa Madigan, Division Chief Matthew Dunn, Senior Assistant Attorney General Jane McBride, and the Illinois Pollution Control Board.
Thank you for understanding that our water is worth protecting and fighting for.

Warren, Ill.

text: January 16, 2007 SistahCraft Knitblogger Meetup!Well, kinda. Today at lunch I happened to meet the fabulous Sahara of SistahCraft (and Knitty City in New York). I then spent the next half hour completely ignoring all other customers in favour of chatting with Sahara and trading tales of Retail Hell. (Sounds like rich NY customers feel just as entitled as rich Sydney customers!) She told me about all the other knitting shops she's hit in Australia, and I picked her brains about her impressions of them and us. Then, of course, it was time for the Obligatory Blogger Meet-Up Photos. (It's like a law.) Soon she was off to buy a new suitcase - seriously, she bought that much wool - and I reluctantly headed back to my desk. It was nice to meet you, Sahara!PS - She knit that awesome lace cotton dress she's wearing. And yay, we were shoe twins! Tweet | Google+ | Facebook Comments Hey there! It was great to meet you too! Thanks for your knowledge! Wait till my friends back in NYC see your store––there gonna choke! I'm trying to put the photos and post together, and Mr. K did buy another suitcase. I'll be posting from Hawaii, but hey––it's still relevant. » Sahara on January 17, 2007 Leave a Comment Please note: As this post is over two weeks old, your comment will not appear until it has been moderated.

1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser Q&A
1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser Question: front end noise.
noise comming from front end when I go over 10 mph it sounds like a bad tire humming I had tires checked and rotated still hear noise. I changed out the driver cv joint & the spindle thinking the bearing was bad. Plus replaced ball joint. Still hear the nioise. Any Ideas. Oh when the cvjoint was removed no transmission fluid came out. - joeyo2

Answer 2
I think you could have a failing wheel bearing. You could feel the vibration if you put your hand (carefully) on the suspension near the hub with the car running on stands. Always diagnose and find the problem before buying parts. I assume you've checked the transmission fluid and it's up to level.
