Using Eulogy Samples to Write a Eulogy Speech For a Beloved
Delivering a eulogy can be a very hard work for any one asked to give it. It can be emotionally overwhelming that doing it would be very difficult. However, one must remember that a eulogy is a tribute to the deceased, something which is done as a last gesture of love and care for the loved one who has passed away.
For any one who have a hard time formulating the eulogy they would deliver, it is a good thing that there are eulogy samples available from the internet. These samples may have been done by professional writers or by individuals who have also lost a loved one.
Eulogy samples are helpful because they give a general idea of how eulogies are supposed to sound like. It may contain the general thought; some may even contain a detailed outline of how thought and ideas should flow. Some even went as far as containing fill in the blanks type of compositions where all you have to do is fill the spaces with the name of the deceased. Unfortunately, this last kind of eulogy samples is usually frowned upon because it takes out the personal part of the speech. However, there are some people who use this.
In writing a eulogy, the very difficult parts are the start and the ending. It is not that difficult to fill in the middle part because it can already be pre-determined by the early parts. However, the middle part is the more important one because it is where you have to say all the important things about the deceased.

BDKwrote a review of Giro Wind Vest - Men's on May 7, 2016
Beware the Fit
Fit: Runs large
Tried this one on in-store and absolutely necessary to size down at least one size if you like a form fit. Me: 40" chest, size medium wearing race fitted jersey, fit great in shoulders/chest/back, very loose in torso. Tried size small and torso was awesome however crouched in riding position it was too tight across back and through chest/back. Hope this helps anyone looking to purchase!

MKdocs project documentation
Enabl.ist last edited by
project documentation
It would be great to have a documentation app. Cloudron seems to be using it themselves already https://cloudron.io/documentation/ that shows quality
fbartels last edited by
Hi @Enabl-ist,
the purpose of mkdocs is to locally create static pages which could be uploaded to your webserver (for example in Cloudron to the Lamp App, the "Surfer" app probably suffices as well). While mkdocs has a built-in server command, according to their docs this is for preview only.
nebulon last edited by
As @fbartels already explained, mkdocs is really just a static docs generator and thus not exactly suitable as a Cloudron app as such. I will mark this as solved since mkdocs generated content already can be served up as explained above.

Hi @fbartels & @nebulon, thank you for your explanation. I will experiment with a wiki app to see if that will do.

Religion is Bad. Atheism is Good! This website explores those two irrefutable facts as well as general science and debunking.
Tuesday, 21 May 2013
To Whomever It May Concern:
When you ask me to respect religion because people believe in it, I want you to remember something. I want you to remember that long ago your ancestors were not Christian or Muslim. They had their own culture and customs native to their heritage. Through military conquest religion spread itself through the Old World, and those distant relatives were faced with a choice: either accept Christianity/Islam or die a painful death. This was how most major religions today achieved their position of respect.
After Europe had been fully indoctrinated, the papal Doctrine of Discovery gave the authority to all good Christians to conquer the native peoples of the New World and claim that land for God and the Church. Millions died mercilessly and were even tortured by Christian heroes like Christopher Columbus.
Now, thousands of years later, when we no longer have to respect these beliefs upon pain of death, we are told that we should respect religion. We are told by those within even the non religious community that we should show respect to these ideas that have gained a place of vaunted privilege in our societies which are built upon the graves of any who dared question or challenge the authority of divine providence.
You think you are being rational. You think you are being reasonable. What you are really doing is propping up the last leg of human slavery to bad ideas and providing intellectual cover for religion to keep a place of honor and respect it never earned.
Please, stop protecting religion in the guise of false humility. Be honest and firm with your beliefs and never expect anyone to respect your ideas unless they earn it, and always be willing to be wrong. That is what it means to be a free thinker.

There was last-gasp heartbreak for Burnley's U18s after conceding a 90th minute equaliser in the 3-3 home draw against Wigan Athletic.
The Clarets, who led 2-0 with just 10 minutes gone through a Tinashe Chakwana brace, had their lead pegged back before a Latics' own goal looked to have earned a fourth win in five games.
However, the visitors struck late on to earn a dramatic share of the spoils.
The young Clarets started off on the front foot and took the lead with just seven minutes gone, when Chakwana, pictured above, tapped in from close range following Dwight McNeil's corner.
Within three minutes Burnley doubled their lead after Chakwana latched onto Tristan Jumeau's pass, before finding the top corner with a sweet strike.
The visitors, seeking a lifeline, came close just before the break when forward Callum Lang hit an effort just wide of Connor King's goal.
However the Latics did come out on the front foot in the second half and got what they deserved as Lang played a neat one-two with Chris Sang, who slotted home past King.
Michael Duff's side were further punished on the hour mark when Lang was found unmarked in the area to fire home and level the scores.
Burnley regained the lead when Chakwana charged down Anthony Platt and the defender could only scoop the ball straight over Theo Roberts in the Wigan goal.
And despite threatening a fourth goal, it was the visitors who struck in the last minute of the game, as a Latics midfielder weaved around the edge of the area before firing home.
BURNLEY: King, Clarke, Younger, Wilson, Koiki (Trialist 45), Jumeau, Shrimpton, Yari, McNeil, Chakwana, Wood (Trialist 45).

You know green tea is good for you. You may not, however, understand how impressively far its benefits go. The key ingredient behind those benefits is a polyphenol—a kind of antioxidant—called EGCG. Though scientists still aren't quite sure how, this molecule has been shown to fight a wide variety of dangerous human invaders, from antibiotic-resistant infections to deadly viruses such as hepatitis C and even HIV. In 2016, scientists added one more virus to that already impressive list: Zika.

While North and South Korea consider the possibility of reopening cross-border talks, the two countries' hackers are conducting a proxy war in cyberspace.
In recent days hackers from the South have poked fun at the Kim dynasty, rulers of North Korea for more than 60 years, and their Northern counterparts retaliated by temporarily disabling a popular South Korean website suspected of being behind the attacks.
Pyongyang reportedly warned of "grave consequences" for South Korean hackers found to have tarnished the name of the Kim family.
Users of the South's dcinside.com website claimed responsibility for hacking into Pyongyang's official Twitter account, @uriminzok, and its official website, uriminzokkiri.com. They posted messages denigrating the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-il, and his youngest son and heir apparent, Kim Jong-un.
The Pyongyang regime launched Twitter and YouTube accounts last summer in an attempt to harness the propaganda potential of cyberspace, although very few North Koreans have access to the internet. The Twitter account now has more than 11,000 followers, although it has been inactive for the past three days.
One tweet posted by hackers urged the North Korean military to "point guns towards traitor Kim Jong-il wasting fortunes on nuclear and missile weapons instead of feeding his people".
On Uriminzokkiri, hackers called for an uprising against the ruling dynasty. "Let's create a new world by driving out rebels Kim Jong-il and his son Kim Jong-un!" they said.
The first letters of an apparently adulatory 12-line acrostic sent to the North's website spelled out derogatory remarks about the ruling family.
The hackers' coup de grace came when they posted a video on the regime's YouTube account to coincide with Kim Jong-un's birthday on Saturday. The short animated film shows the younger Kim driving a sports car along a railway track laden with birthday gifts, mowing down his impoverished countrymen along the way.
The Seoul-based Free North Korea Radio said North Korean officials had questioned the operators of Uriminzokkiri, based in the Chinese city of Shenyang, over their failure to prevent the attacks.
Much of the disruption has emanated from South Korea, but the North reportedly employs a team of expert hackers who are thought to have disabled dozens of South Korean and US websites in July 2009.
North Korean hackers are thought to have retaliated in the latest cyber exchange, temporarily paralysing dcinside.com through a DDOS (distributed denial of service) attack.
Yesterday the site marked its return to service by issuing a challenge to the Pyongyang leadership: "Come out, Jong-il and Jong-un! Let's fight!"
The propaganda wars are not confined to private citizens: the Korea Times reported plans to launch propaganda audio and video webcasts targeting the few North Koreans with access to the internet.
Not all South Koreans support the online onslaught against the North. A 54-year-old man allegedly violated the South's strict national security laws by posting about 100 messages in praise of the North Korean regime on his blog and Twitter account. He also accused Seoul and Washington of fabricating the March sinking of a South Korean warship and said Pyongyang had been provoked into attacking Yeonpyeong island in November.
The justice ministry in Seoul has threatened to punish South Koreans who try to connect with North Koreans via Twitter's reply and retweet functions. South Koreans are banned from unauthourised communication with North Koreans, and offenders face a prison term.

Haven't you always wanted to sleep in a rusty car lofted over Amsterdam?
I'll be honest; the conceits of some of these hotels are so extreme, I'm not sure I'd really even want to stay in them. From rusty lofted cars to beds made of ice, Reuters has dug up some of the strangest hotels in the world:
A car, with an interior that has been converted into a bedroom, sits mounted on 12-foot-high poles outside an Amsterdam hotel. Italian artist Federico D'Orazio turned the small family car into a cosy love nest to encourage more love in the city of Amsterdam. (Robin van Lonkhuijsen/Reuters)

Photography by Debbie McCuish
A few weeks ago I was wanting to find a Wednesday Addams style dress. Like a little fashion miracle I soon found one when I was shopping in H&M so I snapped it up as quickly as I could. The crochet collar and cuffs are so pretty and I love the way the dress nips in at the waist.
I wanted to turn this cute dress into a more luxe look, so I styled it with my faux fur coat, fedora and thigh-high suede boots. This was the first time I had worn my new Ted & Muffy boots out and I couldn't believe how comfy they felt. You might want to check out the shoe brand's website as they are offering 25% off as an introductory offer.
Thanks so much to Debbie McCuish for her fantastic photography. We had so much fun shooting on such a sunny day (another miracle I've had as the weather has been mostly awful lately!) It's the first time I've worked with a photographer since I moved here and I've really enjoyed coming across new locations. Glasgow has so many interesting things to look at, like these grand arches on John Street. We also walked to the top of the Gallery of Modern Art's clock tower which is beautiful too.
Find out where else we explored in my next post!

Learn about Carignan — taste profile, popular regions and more …
Responsible for some of the most stunning old vine red wine on the planet, Carignan has an amazing capacity to survive dry, arid climates and still produce lovely, mouthwatering wine. In Spain it goes by the name of Mazuelo and while it may have originated there in the province of Aragón (with Grenache), its popularity lies elsewhere. It spread across countries that border the Mediterranean Sea, becoming ubiquitous throughout the south of France. Today it flourishes as a blending grape in the Languedoc-Roussillon and also growns in Sardinia, mainland Italy, Turkey, Cyprus, Croatia and Northern Africa. Likewise, producers in the New World—namely California and Chile—bottle excellent single-varietal Carignan wines.
In the Glass
This is a medium-bodied wine with dried cranberry and raspberry fruit. It can take on an attractive savory quality with alluring notes of baking spice, black tea, black licorice or earth.
Perfect Pairings
Try Carignan with seared ahi, roasted turkey or duck, lamb gyros or chops, aged Gouda or Manchego and cured meats.
Sommelier Secret
Historically Carignan did not enjoy the respect that it does today. In the mid 20th century, Carignan covered nearly 140,000 ha in Algeria, where it was made into low quality bulk and blending wine to supply mass-market demand.

Play Ball!
After being constricted to shooting inside dark dungy for almost two months covering college and high school basketball it was time to get out side in the nice weather (well kind of nice) and shoot some baseball.
I head over to Perrysburg High School to shoot the varsity baseball game. My original plan was to do a remote some were but I got there a little late and there wasn't a really good spot to put it because most high school fields suck with shooting positions.

The #16 Ohio State Buckeyes were in town so I couldn't pass down the opportunity. Little did I know would this be the best two days of shooting hockey that I have ever had! I covered #1 Notre Dame a few weeks ago and nothing compared to the big hitting Buckeyes of the Big Ten.
I got to the the arena pretty early because I wanted to set up a remote but I forgot my cable from the pocket wizards to the camera. Go figure! I guess next time I should check my bag before I head to a shoot next time.

If a few days ago I went on economic and governance issues, associated to the rescue of some Spanish motorway concessions, now I think back on the same kind of issues. It is hard not to do that, because we are real time viewers of the Irish bailout. To this new crisis, it comes to my mind two quite synthetic images of the situation.
On one hand, there is the image of the recently deceased Spanish filmmaker Luis García Berlanga and his film called "Plácido". I remember one movie scene in which there is an auction, for a beggar as a prize, with a banner who says "A poor at your table". In this case you know who the beggar is, and how their neighbours, richer than him, have invited him to dinner to wash their consciences and their souls in an attempt to be good Christians and so, of course, to earn Heaven, which is what really matters. This first idea has the stakeholders of the crisis.
On the second image that I imagine, appear the methods in use. In the 80´s, there was a very popular ad on Spanish TV where a helicopter, loaded with tons of butter, came down to public schools and swimming pools to hand out this delicious cream (for free). The butter brand was called Tulipán. In this case, the European helicopter will provide resources to the Irish state.
All these issues are starting to seem as surreal as a Berlanga movie, as we see how the states are willing to help everyone, banks, countries, car manufacturers, infrastructure concessionaries, etc.. Everyone except the individual citizens. Let's see some data, the amount of Ireland's rescue is not clear and it seems to be between 50,000 and 100,000 million euros. We can suppose that it's going to be 80,000 million euros. This money is going to be given to pay the debt left by the Irish housing crisis, which has caused the devaluation of the housing assets.
On the other hand, we have 4,500,000 Irish, implying that the bailout of banks is equivalent to distribute 17,700 € to each of the Irish citizens, this figure is surprising though there are other sources that say that it could be 60,000 € for each Irish person. So, with these numbers, a doubt rises, supposing that it's necessary to pass the money helicopter, why not distribute it directly to the mortgages owners, rather than on banks in terms of book value of mortgages? Perhaps it is nonsense, but you could give 17,700 € to each Irish person, and you can push them to amortize their mortgages in price, not in time.
This way of doing things would get some positive impacts, like money entering into the banks improving their financial results. There would also be a minor underestimation of mortgage assets because it would help people on not having to sell their homes, which would result in a lower supply of housing, which in turn would keep housing prices and thus there would be a smaller impact on banks accounting.
In addition, this would introduce a greater volume of money supply in the economy. Suppose a mortgage of 150,000 € and 25 years for paying it. Eliminating 17,700 € of principal would make available 75 € to every citizen each month, what could have a great impact to consumption and to taxes. As a requirement, to avoid speculation, I think that housing assistance should lead to a commitment for not selling it in the long run. That period could be the mortgage term; in addition it's necessary to implement the much announced reform in bank systems.
Obviously, this raises an equity issue, because those who have not purchased a home are not enjoying such support. I think that governments could compensate these people through an equivalent sum of money in education services. This would also help to lead productive factors into new sectors with quality jobs.
Summing up, this whole post is to polemicize a bit, since I think that growth model based on debt seems to be outdated and that the capitalism of the benefits and the communism of the losses are becoming very unpopular.

Karl Mattson's sour gas escape pod, Rolla B.C.Monday, July 23rd, 2012
Pod at Sweetwater 905 Festival 2012.
Karl Mattson, an artist and filmmaker from the town of Rolla in Northern B.C., produced this "escape pod" artwork last year. I saw it a few weeks ago on the concert grounds of the Sweetwater 905 Festival. It may look like a space capsule playhouse for kids, and sometimes it is, but it was actually built as shelter from the very real danger of highly toxic sour gas leaks, as well as a protest against the inadequately regulated gas industry in Northern BC.

Though Ducted Fans UAVs as of now are not very common, my personal opinion is that this will change in the future, since they have certain advantages over other concepts.

Last Saturday I helped out at the Scarman House kitchen for Warwick Conferences. It was my first time entering a big restaurant kitchen, like the ones you see on cooking shows like Masterchef.
|From this website.
I was just helping out packing lunch. Adding into a paper bag a sandwich, one fruit, a cereal bar, a bottle of water and one pasta pot. How healthy, I know.
|From this website: http://alcalde.texasexes.org/
The kitchen smelled really good. Despite being big, it wasn't very busy, not like in Masterchef. There were a few chefs, people in charge of doing the dessert, there were kitchen porters, but nope, nobody was screaming.
I spent about 4.15 hours packing 200 pack lunches with a new friend from Spain, with the chance to smell good food and to eye on good desserts in their -19 degree celsius fridge! Time well spent alhamdulillah.
Hope to get more opportunities like this to earn extra cash!

Carbonite missiles were missiles used by the Missile Attack Launcher to destroy large amounts of infantry in shorter time than with the standard ground concussion missiles. Releasing a flash of supercooled carbonite upon detonation, the sudden decrease in temperature was capable of slowing down vehicles and infantry squads. Carbonite missiles were most devastating when used against infantry, as the blast of cold was very effective both at killing soldiers quickly and at making them less able to fend off other attacks.

Derek Goodwin has been quietly waging one-man campaign to clean up waterways.
PARIS BOSCH finds out how Derek's mission started and what plans he has for the future.
Lismore is a city full of people who care about the environment, with thousands turning out recently to march against the evils of coal seam gas.
In this city of environmentalists, its surprising to know that one man has spent more than half a decade waging a war against one of the region's most pressing environmental problems, largely on his own.
It was back in 2008 when Derek Goodwin began his personal crusade to clear out and destroy feral plant pests.
He says it sprang from concern for the wellbeing of children, after a Catholic parish hall located near the overrun Hollingworth Creek decided to establish a childcare centre.
"The area behind the hall was terribly overgrown, so much so that you couldn't even see the creek because of all the lantana and exotics that were there."
"The thing about these exotics is they're so thorny you simply can't be near them, and I thought that's not the ideal situation so I started to clear it back to make it safe for the children."
Six years later and Derek is still going strong, spending hours each day clearing feral trees, weeds and rubbish from around local waterways.
One of his biggest challenges comes from prolific coral trees that have infested the land.
"Once coral trees get in they're like a virus that takes over the whole area. They'll outgrow any native plant and immediately shade it out, so nothing else has a chance."
"It's also virulent in the way it spreads. It has thousands of seeds per tree and can grow off itself, so if any part of the coral falls into the waterway and is carried to a bank, well you've got yourself another tree. It's an enormous task, but it really is important to get them off the waterways."
To date, Derek has successfully cleaned up several kilometres of riverbank.
More recently he's turned his attention towards restoring a 10 hectare lot known as Duck Pond, so local residents can once again enjoy it unhampered by corals and other feral weeds.
"So far we've cleared around 50-60 per cent of what we call the eastern area, but it's a many, many year project as a lot of it is done by hand. You have to poison the corals, cut them down, clear them and then replant indigenous trees so it's a long process."
According to Derek, it is seeing the difference his work makes encourages him to keep going.

Through the gift of wisdom, the Holy Spirit perfects the acts of the virtue of prudence, and prudence in turn tells us which means to use in any given situation.
- Frequently we must make a decision; sometimes it is an important matter, at other times much less so. But in all of them, our holiness is in some way involved. God grants the gift of wisdom to those who are docile to the action of the Holy Spirit, so that they may make decisions quickly and correctly.
- This gift is like a supernatural instinct for knowing which way gives most glory to God.
Just as prudence is present in all our actions, so too the Holy Spirit, through the gift of counsel, is the Light and permanent guiding Principle of our actions.
- The Paraclete inspires us when we choose the MEANS to carry out God's will. He leads us along paths which involve charity, peace, joy, sacrifice, fulfilment of duty and faithfulness in small things. He marks out the path for us at every instant.
The gift of counsel presupposes that we have used all the other means necessary to act prudently: to obtain the necessary data; to foresee the possible consequences of our actions, to learn from the experience of similar situations in the past, to ask advice when the moment comes.
- This is natural prudence which is then reinforced by grace. Along with supernatural prudence we receive this gift of counsel which allows us to make a sure and quick decision regarding the means to be used, or the reply to be given, or the way to be followed.
The gift of counsel is a great help in keeping a true conscience, and not letting it be deformed.
- If we are docile, the Holy Spirit will illumine our conscience with light and advice. Our soul will not deviate or make excuses for faults and sins. Rather it will react with contrition, with a greater sorrow at having offended God.
- This gift illumines brightly the soul which is faithful to God, in such a way that it does not apply moral laws wrongly, does not allow human respect to sway it, is not carried away by fashions and trends of the moment, but is ruled always by God's will.
- The Paraclete counsels us, directly or through others, regarding which is the right path to follow, a path which may well be different from the one suggested by the spirit of the world. A person who ceases to apply moral norms to his behaviour, whether in important or not so important matters, does so because he places his own will before the will of God.
SOURCE: ICWG, vol. 2, n.90
"Holy Spirit, Love of the Father and of the Son, inspire me always as to what I must think, what I must say, what I must write, how I must behave, what I must do to work efficaciously for your glory, for the good of souls and for my own sanctification. (A. Riaud, The Holy Spirit Acting in Our Souls)."
Cordially inviting you to like and follow http://www.facebook.com/Catholicsstrivingforholiness and share our posts to help more people in their Christian faith and life. Thanks! Fr. Rolly Arjonillo.

Where the Heart Is
Find Out
This practice is owner/operated by Michelle Reisinger, graduating as
of her class from
The Florida Academy of Massage
after completing 540 hours of training. Michelle has been licensed and Nationally Certified with the
National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork
(NCBTMB) since 1999. She did let this certification go in 2013.
In 2004, she received an additional 500 hours of clinical massage training focusing on
orthopedic evaluation
procedures to accurately determine the source of pain and/or dysfunction and
advanced manual therapy techniques
to treat the problem.
In May of 2005, she became the 63rd
Nationally Certified Medical Massage Therapist
(NCMMT) in the nation after meeting the requirements of experience, advanced education and the passing of a national certification test consisting of 150 questions.
Michelle utilizes different
manual therapy techniques
according to the findings of ongoing basic evaluations. If the treatment does not render a decrease in pain symptoms and an overall improvement in function, she will reevaluate and switch to another form of treatment.
Michelle loves her chosen career. She decided to enter the field of clinical massage therapy due to injuries she received and the chronic pain that resulted.
Over the years, she has striven to learn all she could to understand the physiology behind pain and the dysfunctional patterns chronic pain causes.
Armed with this understanding, she was able to apply the numerous manual therapy techniques she learned in more specific manners, thereby achieving the specific results required to achieve long lasting decrease in pain and increase in function.
Due to Michelle's own battle with chronic pain, she has an acute understanding of the emotional impact of chronic pain. She is better able to recognize the many ways chronic pain affects the emotional well being of a suffering person. She therefore is better able to treat each person with a higher level of understanding and compassion that many other massage therapist's are unable to comprehend. She is not only able to offer expertise in the management of chronic pain, but is also able to offer hope. She no longer suffers with chronic pain, and is able to share her own experiences as to how she overcame chronic pain.
Michelle does realize there are certain conditions that will not allow for a totally pain free life, but she is able to help the majority of people live a functional, relatively pain free life.

Several times a day since I've had my tummy tuck my 4 year old Garren comes in to check on me, not out of concern, but curiosity, kinda like seeing a carnival freak show.
"Mom, can I see the bruise on your bootie?"
"Mom, can I see your blood thing?" (my stent drain)
"Mom can I see your new bellybutton?"
"Mom, can I see your gold tooth?" (not sure how my crown worked it's way into this)
The day of the procedure I came home and the kids were dying to see me. Before they came in my room my mother warned them, "Do NOT touch your mother because it will hurt her, she's in pain."
Garren's standing over me going thru his checklist of things to see for the first time and he was just so cute I couldn't resist cupping his little face in my hand. He said, "Mom! Don't touch me! Are you in pain?" Poor kid thinks he's the reason for my pain. (If he only knew)
Ok, gonna show some of my photos under the fold, if you're squeamish don't look. Any perverted comments about my backside will be deleted.

No don't say that…then we'll have to witness the removal and aftermath of that surgery. ew!
Anyone can find a prurient aspect to those pictures has a s-e-r-i-o-u-s problem!
MCPO..do you use words like "prurient" when you speak? I think I will call you Mr. Shmarty.
Kare-kare- Why yes I do. You may thanks the Jesuits who "stressed" vocabulary in my all male high school.
"Country-assed" is considered a proper synonym for "rural".
the word budge always sounds strange to me and I always have a hard time saying humiliated.
all male high school, ouch.
Kare-kare – Only for two years. The gender segregation wasn't bad but, the Jesuits were!
The gender segregation wasn't bad but, the Jesuits were!
Priests and gender segregation – Like peanut butter and jelly, what?
Was that salacious?
Oh dear…methinks another trip to the dictionary might be in the offing.
Never happened to me. As Dom Irrea says, "What? Little Dominick wasn't good enough for you?"
How's it go…? Half Nelson…Full Nelson…and Fr. Nelson? Can't remember the positions cuz I'm a girl…I'll have to ask my brother.
It was Fr. McGrath at St. Francis. He smelled of Irish whiskey and cigars.
this is what I was getting at…
Father Nelson …
Two dads from the neighborhood were standing around watching their kids play on the playground. These guys are always trying to top each other with new jokes.
One of the dads, Pete, pipes up and asks Bob if he knew anything about wrestling. Bob proceeds to tell him a thing or two, and walks up behind Pete and puts his right arm through his right armpit and his hand on Pete's neck.
"What's this called?" Bob asks.
"That's a half-nelson," Pete says as his right arm was pushed up over his head.
"Very good, Petey," Bob replied. "Now, what's this?"
He did the same exact thing to Pete's left arm leaving him with both hands over his head while standing behind him.
"That's a full-nelson," Pete said, trying to figure out what Bob's joke could be.
"Right!" Bob said. Then, remaining behind Pete with both his hands forcing Pete's over by putting pressure on his neck, Bob bent Pete over and began grinding his hips into his ass.
"So what's this?" Bob said.
"I don't know," Pete admitted.
Bob shouted, "It's a Father Nelson!"
As for the teach…he retired a long time ago. He also ran over his grand daughter with his truck and was devastated. She only suffered a broken arm but that ruined him. It was a total accident.
Kare- kare – that joke is O-L-D! One more of those, and I'll have to call Dr. Lou Czar to counsel you! ;-)
No no…please don't. I know it's old. Quick throw some big words into the mix and we can move along.
I'm perspicacious enough to see through your diversions!
Thank you hot stuff!
Where the hell are you?….isn't it past ur bed time?
I'm in Pennsylvania. I'm one of those Appalachians that Obama finds so bitter. My tee-time tomorrow isn't until 10:30, so I'm up.
I must have scared off Kare-kare when she realized that I'm a gun-toting, Bible clinging hillbillie.
I'm impressed by MCPO's brobdingnagian vocabulary…
Nah…I'm still here. I took a popcorn break with the older kids. They never say thank you.
Shouldn't that be "Bible-clinging hillbilly"??? (i.e. with a hyphen and a "y"?) Where's Muslihoon when you need a grammar check??????
I just saw the picture of you with your dad – quite fetching!
Had to look that up.
It means the same as gi-normous, right?
quite fetching!
My Dad, right? :)
PJM go to bed!
Kare-kare – Just as I was starting to flirt. . . you chase off the big sister!
you chase off the big sister!
She is bruised and my mother will be leaving tomorrow…it's time for her to rest. Just cuz it's her blog doesn't mean we need her. Sheesh!
Well, I'm going to bed. I'll be dreaming about Kare-kare. . . hitting a perfect 3-iron to the green on number 10. Zzzzzzzzzzz
Night Puddin…..
Lance is lame (runny poops) and the chills…I think he's gettin sick. He drank a glass of wine to please me but I think that made things worse. He is in bed like a baby (whiner whore skank) and hopefully he will be normal tomorrow.
I am making cupcakes for L's graduation and I am picking up edible flowers for the decorations…you think that will be a nice touch? I hope..I gotta drive to O.B. for them. I think it will look pretty on top of the cupcakes…I will take pic's.
I can't believe she is leaving for school…it will be cool!
My goodness…it's 10p and I'm so tired. Night sweetness! I need to get up and go running in the morning, it's weird I am starting to crave it. I never thought I'd be a runner…crazy?
It means the same as gi-normous, right?
Yep. Now, for the big money, give me the etymology.
So, did your putter stand on end dreaming of Kare-Kare's Number 10 hole?
Night Puddin'
OW! Ow! OWIE! Ow.
Shoot, I need a drink.
Dang, it's ten in the morning.
Merciful Heavens! The pain kinda reaches out right through the monitor and grabs you.
Here's hoping for a quick recovery, PJM.
Remember to save any leftover happy pills for all your friends!
Anyone can find a prurient aspect to those pictures has a s-e-r-i-o-u-s problem!
I guess I'm just sick.
As there seems to be some confusion over the word "prurient," let me illustrate.
update from pajama momma: gah, you're right rittenhouse! I deleted your link cuz I'm mortified from it and fixed the photo myself.
omg aunty!!!
whyy is this hapning to you?
c"est tre grave quand meme d voire
I have been examinating out many of your posts and i can state nice stuff. I will definitely bookmark your site.
Bitcoin has experienced incredible growth in the last few years and there will be those that will claim that the success is about to burst and the currency crumble. Many of us continue to believe in the concept of an independent currency system away from the reach of the banks. We do not accept that crypto currency is past it's best. We shall be staying with Bitcoin and I am quite confident that Bitcoin will keep rising more rapidly than previously. High street banks are naturally concerned about the growth of crypto currency. Their worry is driven by the reality that crypto currency does not incur large fees. Bitcoin fees are a small part of the transaction compared to the fees that conventional banks charge. The use of a manual site like Bitcoin Surfing will offer you the opportunity to see what new deals which are available related to bitcoin. Bitcoin Mining is a good way to start building up your Bitcoin fund. Open a free crypto-currency account with Coinbase and you will be given $10 worth of Bitcoin for no charge to get you started. There are a lot of offers to get you involved in crypto currency and Bitcoin Surfing is the best way to start. The best thing is it won't cost you anything.

The truth is we all did that at some point, some are still doing that (well, this is for you). I was so guilty of that, especially during my secondary school days, I'd always wonder why I wasn't as smart as most of my mates, I kept comparing and was never satisfied. Guess what? It didn't help, I could have used the comparison positively but I didn't, I mean I could have used it as a motivation to get better, instead I was checking for what they had which I did not (as if that's what it takes…SMH). Apart from that, there were other times, I would wonder why I couldn't just be like this other person, and it never brought positive results. I was just wallowing in the disability of being able to see the unique qualities I possess.
Just imagine comparing these two fruits, Pineapple and Watermelon, wondering why the latter isn't as tasty as the former. The fact is each person has its unique purpose and quality, when you compare the two fruits, you should bear in mind that they possess diverse attributes and benefits that differentiates them and these has made each of them unique. Imagine if we were all the same, the world would have been overly boring. Nothing exciting, special, amusing and challenging, I mean, Life is all about these.
Now that there is a befitting introduction. These are the reasons you should stop comparing yourself to others.
When you keep comparing yourself and others, you drift away from your purpose and goals. While you try to be as good as or better than someone else, you find out you want to do everything the person does. Studying a course just because someone doing very well studied the same course is a befitting example. Make choices based on what you really desire, not because you think things would turn out well when you do so.
There's nothing you can do about this, some people are more privileged than others. It could be wealthier parents, social connections and even individual gifts or talents.
There is always going to be someone doing better than you and if you constantly judge yourself by those standards, you can never feel good about yourself. You might give up on your aspirations because you have lost the confidence to achieve them.
You can't. Of course, you can change every other thing (cars, hair, clothes, friends), but who you really are? No, you can't. You are you, embrace it!
Comparing yourself with someone is bad enough, then when you compare a person's best attributes to your worst, that's not it at all. Each person has his/ her bad side, stop hurting yourself by comparing your worst attribute to his best. Also, you are not certain about what this person is really going through in his closet, a person's life isn't based on what we see every day or what they tell us. There are difficulties and challenges that someone might face but you won't know, even if you see him every day. Everyone is fighting a battle you know nothing about.
Jealousy isn't a pleasing feeling, it makes you feel bad and worked up. You're always bitter and appear unpleasant. Comparing yourself to others will bring about jealousy, if you don't stop. Your friends might even into rivals (maybe not deliberately), for some, it could just be a twinge of jealousy. When a person you compare yourself to achieves something spectacular, even if you try, you can't be entirely happy. You might even feel he is trying to spite when he tells you about his accomplishments. What if his accomplishment/success influences you by creating opportunities that will turn out well for you?
Letting go of comparisons will help you define success for yourself, because the only real measurement of success is yours. You should focus your time and efforts on yourself (improving yourself). Sure, you might find someone's life interesting, but don't try to live their life, it's theirs, you should live yours.
Stay happy!!!

What Next Hypothetical WAR?
As I always draw to the end of one of my projects, I always get the question "What will you write about next?" or "You've covered everything already, how do you keep coming up with stuff to talk about?" Well the future of a blog regarding a single topic, such as a game, depends on the growth of the product. Hypothetical WAR has the plus of not only being able to discuss the present and past features of Warhammer Online, but also the possibilities for the future – the blog is based off of theory crafting after all. Has my blog impacted the way Mythic and the Warhammer community thinks and acts? I can only hope. I like to think viewing my blog is a big taboo at Mythic =D "Hey Bob whatcha looking at? Oh my gosh is that Hypotehtical WAR?!" "No! Gosh no! I was just… browsing some… baby-seal-clubbing sites!" "Oh ok, that's much better. Stay chipper, Bob."
As for my future plans, or the questions I get "Do you have something else planned?" and "How much longer are you going to keep going at it?" the answer is twofold. First off, I do have another big salvo at Mythic planned; however, its still in the brain-factory so I'm not quite ready to start talking about it. Secondly, after this upcoming project we'll see what the state of Warhammer is and if I can keep dreaming up unrealistic possibilities 😉
Regarding this project, I reach out to my readers and ask for anyone with artistic talent, time to share, and a love for Warhammer to contact me. I can write, I can think, I can envision, but I can't draw. While nothing may ever come of what I've thought up, perhaps we can show Mythic that the community still has passion, still has the will, and has an untapped reservoir of ingenuity. So once again, if you have artistic talent and want to contribute to a feasible possibility of WAR's future let me know.
Where's the love for the Alt-aholics?
Back in the Q&A pre-1.4 someone brought up the age old request (as in since November 2008 when the Black Guard and KotBS came out) that we be allowed to make 12 characters per server because… we would like to try out all 12 classes and not have to play 10 on one server and 2 on another. We asked, Carrie said 'Oh I didn't know people wanted that' (probably because the only class she likes is the DoK) and she made a note in her phone or whatever to up the character amount to 12. Well… here's my @Mythic – whats the status on those 12 character slots per server? I saw no mention of it in the Producer's letter and that would at least be welcomed as progress in terms of Community-Mythic communications.
Wrap-up & A look Ahead
Today marks an end of my second mini project of expanding the RvR fight into the PvE lakes – this time I took on the approach of separating the high RR players from the little guys, with the intent of both giving newer players a fighting chance in T4 (and thus an incentive to play on) and to give high RR players the opportunity to fight in new locations. Population concerns were brought up regarding the viability of such thinned out tiers with the games population numbers so low. While I understand the concerns – I do not feel that we will be getting any more new players in T4 as time goes on because it sucks getting raped as a Anni-clad trooper by someone in Doomflayer or Warpforged. In my maps I tried to illustrate locations which had something of value either in terms of lore or defensibility. While it wasn't something I delved into, a system could be implemented where the fight in T5 would influence the outcome of T4.
Moving past my T5 Parasite project we enter the present and future. Finally the annual Mythic Holiday of Thanksgiving-February has been broken. Read more…
'Warpforged' T5 – Elf T1
For the last leg of our T5 journey we go to the realm of the elves, the place where my journey began – the Blighted Isle and Chrace. These two maps differ significantly from the battle for one main reason – they are significantly larger. Where much of the Dwarf T1 maps are lost to mountains and the Empire T1 map lost to ocean and mountains, the Elf T1 zones have less terrain lost to undeveloped oceans/mountains. For this reason I have opted to increase the BO count in these zones from the typical 6 per map I used in the Empire and Dwarf maps to 8 per map. The change isn't large, but opens up the arena into a larger battleground over more locations. Read more…
'Warpforged' T5 – Dwarf T1
Today we take the RR91+ journey to the land of the Dwarves, infested by the bloody Greenskins. We enter the realm of Mount Bloodhorn and Ekrund. In lore, Ekrund has already fallen; in WAR, Mythic has given Ekrund a second life! Despite the small size of these RvR lake, so much space is wasted in mountains and undeveloped portions of the map. For this reason it was very hard to choose locations to fight at, in particular the Greenskin storyline is terribly cramped in these zones and finding locations that were spread out was very difficult. Hopefully the result I produce spreads the fight out enough to not make the zone tight and cluttered. Read more…
'Warpforged' T5 – Empire T1
Time for the beginning of the last leg of this journey. Today we enter the realm of the Empire v. Chaos T1 pairing and reshape a portion of it for the purpose of a T5 battleground for players who are RR91+, and what better place to duke it out than where it all began. Because the maps in this tier are so small, I have reduced the amount of BOs down to 6 per map, but have kept the amount of chapter hubs at 2. In these small maps the battle will be smaller, more frequent, and more fierce. Let's take a look at the sites. Read more…
'Doomflayer' T5 – Elf T2
For the final installment of the 'Doomflayer' T5 we venture into the realm of the Elves. Oddly enough these are probably among the two most desolate zones in the game – the Shadowlands because everything is in ruins, and Ellyrion because its open rolling plains. That being said it was pretty difficult to find key locations of interest to fight over, the solution created very elongated maps – particularly in the Shadowlands. Going for 9 BOs per map and one chapter hub I had to opt for the 4/5 and 5/4 splits but that shouldn't be to grave of an issue. Onto the locations! Read more…

As I mentioned before, I only brought the Urban Decay Alice in Wonderland eye palette with me here to NYC, forcing myself to create looks using that. Here is what I came up for today:
Started with Primer Potion. Used Muchness all over lid. Applied Absolem to inner 1/2 of lid, Vorpal to outer half. Used Queen to line upper and lower lids.
I really like the Queen shade. It's a very workable plum that would probably look excellent on any skin type. Some people may be frightened of the brightness of Absolem, but it actually goes on rather sheer, and is easy to build up, if that's your thing.
I'm headed downtown, so be sure to check in often. If you're not following me on Twitter, why not?

More Games for the Ballet ClassroomClassroom Planning Creative Teaching Ideas Intermediate & Advanced Classes Pre-Ballet Teaching Tips
Games in the ballet classroom can be very effective teaching tools. As the students take advantage of a time of rest from their technique class, you can continue their ballet education through creative, team-building, skill-developing activities. Explained below are some great ballet class games that will teach vocabulary, direction, rhythm practice and choreographic skills. Most are intended for the older students, though they can be modified to suit your younger students as well.
"Which Battement Is It?"
Use flash cards with the names of the Battements that your class knows or is learning. Divide the class into teams. Each team draws a card, and has about 20 seconds to decide how to do the exercise named on the card.
The first team gives you their card and then shows their exercise. They show it En Croix, or in whatever pattern you ask them to use.
The other teams must identify the exercise by its complete name. Everyone does that exercise. Then the second team shows their exercise, etc.
This game gives practice in
- identifying the movement by seeing the name, and
- identifying the name by seeing the movement.
For more advanced classes, use two or more cards and have them create Enchainements of the Battement exercises.
This activity is good for learning technical corrections. Once the Battement is identified and practiced, students can be asked how to improve the movement. Give them one correction to work on each time they repeat it.
"Galloping Battements"
A "connecting step" must be chosen for this game, such as Side Gallops, in a circle holding hands. Other possible steps: Walking, Running, forward Gallops, forward Gallops with a partner, Polka, Chassé, Temps Levé, etc. The connecting step can be done in a circle or diagonally.
- Do the connecting step four times with the right (counts 1-4).
- Do Battement Tendu Devant, and Battement Tendu Degagé (Glissé) Devant with the right foot (cts 5-8).
- Do the connecting step four times with the left.
- Do the two Battements Devant with the left.
- Repeat all, doing the Battements Derriere or A la Seconde the next time.
Any two Battements can be used. Students should clearly show the difference in height. Saying the names of the Battements as they do them will help them to remember the terms.
For extra challenge in a teen class, alternate between two different connecting steps, changing off on part 5, or on both 3 and 5.
Note that it is more difficult to do a straight leg Battement and a bending leg Battement in a sequence than to do two straight ones or two bending ones.
"Let's Move!"
Students work in pairs. Each pair is given a step or exercise to show, and a pair of directional words to use. One shows the Devant form, and the other shows the En Avant form. Or De Côté and A la Seconde; or Derriere and En Arriere.
The rest of the class can be asked to name the step, and the direction each dancer is showing.
Some steps and exercises will look the same, such as Battement Tendu. Most center steps will be different.
"Using the Compass"
Have the students practice Battement Tendu En Croix on their Dancer's Compass charts, saying the names: Devant, Under, Derriere, Over.
- First, they do it En Face with the right foot. Repeat with the left foot.
- Now try it facing Downstage Right.
- Repeat, facing Downstage Left.
This should help them to realize that the direction of a step is named from the dancer, and that Devant, Derriere, En Avant, En Arriere, Dessous, and Dessus can be done facing any of the stage directions. For example, Glissade En Avant can be done in all eight stage directions. En Avant means forward of the dancer. This may or may not be forward on the stage.
This activity can be used with almost any step. All of the Compass directions can be used, but it may be confusing to use more than two or three in any one class session.
"Can You Hear the Step?"
Clap the rhythms of a Chassé Coupé, a Balancé, a Glissade, and a Pas de Bourrée. Each has its own rhythm pattern. Glissade and Chassé Coupé have a similar meter, but the accent is in a different place. The other two are quite different. Balancé is a 3/4 meter with three even steps: "one, two, three." Pas de Bourrée is intended to be danced as a triplet rhythm with two upbeats: "and a one."
- Practice with the class until they can clap the rhythms with you.
- You clap a rhythm, and the class dances the step as you clap.
- Divide the class in Half will clap a rhythm (chosen by them, or by you), and the other half must fit the correct step to the claps.
Do They Understand? Some students may not realize that the clapping sounds represent the instant at which their feet connect with the floor! Quite often those with little or no Ballet experience will assume they are to be in the air on the claps.
"Clap and Dance!" For Teens
In older classes, the students could be asked to combine the step with a second step of their own choosing.
Instead of working alone, dancers could work in pairs, or teams. Students often find it easier to be creative with a partner, or a team of three or four dancers. ·
On their second tum the team could choreograph and be ready with a nicely choreographed ending using the last four measures of a 16-measure sequence.
A suggested format for the finished 16 measure sequence:
- The assigned step for 4 measures.
- A step or Enchainement of their own choosing for 4 measures.
- The assigned step is repeated for 4 measures.
- An ending of their own, using the last 4 measures.
A complete dance for recital or demonstration can be arranged by combining the created sequences of the different groups of students in the class.
"Spot and Turn"
- Dancers stand one behind the other in two rows. The rows look at each other, then at the walls, etc.
- After four "spots" do a walking turn (3-step turn) away from the other row. Repeat the four "spots" starting with a look at the wall. Do a walking turn back to place. Continue through the music. Chaîné or Posé turns can be used. For challenge, call out a different turn each time they start over.
Enjoy these great games with your class and then comment below to share your experiences! For more ideas for games, especially for the younger ones, see Games for the Ballet Classroom.

Solar energy certainly comes with a huge range of advantages. Not only are you protecting the environment, but you are also getting your energy much cheaper as well. A lot of people are worried about investing in solar energy because they believe that the money they spend could be better spent elsewhere, but in reality, solar panels and other renewable energy source installations pay for themselves after a couple of years alone.
Renewable Energy Sources
When you look at the benefits that you get with solar energy panels, the most important thing to remember is that it is truly a renewable energy source. You have all of the energy in the world at your disposal and it is available to you on a day to day basis. The best solar companies will work with you to make sure that you are updated every step of the way with your installation, and solar energy will be around as long as we have the sun and that is expected to be for at least another 5 billion years!
Energy Bills
Your energy bills will drop significantly. This does depend on the size of the solar energy system that you have, but savings are guaranteed. If you don't use as much electricity as you generate then you can export some back to the grid. You will receive payments for this and you can even take advantage of this even more by buying energy from the grid at night and selling your excess during the day.
Solar energy can be used for a huge range of purposes. You can generate electricity or even heat energy. Solar energy can provide energy to areas that do not have access to the grid and it can even be used to distill water in regions where there is very little. Solar energy is also becoming more apparent in buildings, such as solar panel windows and so much more. By investing in solar energy, you are ultimately moving your home into the future.
Contrary to popular belief, solar panels don't require a lot of maintenance at all. You actually only need to keep them partly clean, so if you clean them up a couple of times over the year then this will be more than enough. There are also plenty of services out there that can be utilized as well, including solar panel cleaning services and so much more.
So as you can see, solar energy is taking the world by storm and by investing in solar energy now, you can be sure to benefit for years to come. Solar energy panels can also help you to sell your home for a much higher value and this can help you to invest in an even bigger property at a later date. Ultimately, solar panels are worth their weight in gold and by investing in them for your home, you can not only set a good example to your children, but also to others who want to change the world.
