You could say it all started with the red-eyed tramp with the slimy fingers who put the wind up Neville, the part-time barman, something rotten. Or when Archroy's wife swapped his trusty Morris Minor for five magic beans while he was out at the rubber factory.
"The Anti-pope"
'Outside the sun shines. Buses rumble towards Ealing Broadway and I'm expected to do battle with the powers of darkness. It all seems a little unfair...' You could say it all started with the red-eyed tramp with the slimy fingers who put the wind up Neville, the part-time barman, something rotten. Or when Archroy's wife swapped his trusty Morris Minor for five magic beans while he was out at the rubber factory.

"Short, Sharp and to the Point"
Philosophy for busy people. Listen to a succinct account of the philosophy of Hume in just one hour.Hume reduced philosophy to ruins, denying the existence of everything except our actual perceptions themselves. The world is nothing more than part of my consciousness. Yet we know the world remains, and we go on as before. What Hume expressed was the status of our knowledge about the world - a world in which neither religion nor science is certain.

"A great study guide - or short summary of the book"
Looking at how Britain pays its way in the world today. Like Andrew Marr's History of Modern Britain or Michael Palin's Himalaya, the book will have a coherence and life beyond the television series, looking at some issues in greater depth, and telling additional stories to illustrate some of the ideas. This book is about the things that Britain produces in order to pay its way in the world, from physical goods that we can see and feel, to intangible services that are much harder to quantify.
"The UK's Income Explained!"
Philosophy for busy people. Listen to a succinct account of the philosophy of Kierkegaard in just one hour.Although Kierkegaard was not a philosopher in the academic sense, he produced what many people expect of philosophy. He didn't write about the world, he wrote about life - how we live and how we choose to live, particularly focussing on the individual and the notion of his (or her) existence.
"Very good"
Is the Greek alphabet all Greek to you? Is geometry your Achilles heel and does your knowledge of Homer have more to do with The Simpsons than the Sirens? From engineering and architecture to drama and democracy, the world around us is founded on the principles and discoveries of the Ancient World, yet our understanding of it is episodic at best. But it's never too late to learn....
"Light but not insubstantial"
Economics matters. But with confusing things like GDP and interest rates, it's often hard to get you head around. So What do you really need to know about economics?

Philosophy for busy people. Read a succinct account of the philosophy of Spinoza in just one hour.Spinoza's brilliant metaphysical system was derived neither from reality nor experience. Starting from basic axioms (assumptions), by means of a series of geometric proofs he built a universe which was also God - one and the same thing, the classic example of pantheism.
Philosophy for busy people. Read a succinct account of the philosophy of Leibniz in just one hour.Leibniz was the first great German philosopher to produce an all-embracing philosophical system. He came to the remarkable conclusion that space and time do not exist - they are mere superstitious assumptions. Only things exist and only God is able to see things as they truly are - from a perspectiveless viewpoint. Yet the infinite of ultimate objects that make up the world ('monads') are not material: they are metaphysical and thus not subject to the laws of cause and effect.
Philosophy for busy people. Listen to a succinct account of the philosophy of Berkeley in just one hour.Berkeley's philosophy denies the existence of matter. According to his work, there is no material world, only our own experience. So when you don't see something, it isn't there. Then how does the world persist? Because it is supported by the continuous perception of an all-seeing God. Berkeley's ideas appear to take empiricism to a ludicrous extreme. But is this quite so absurd as it seems?
Philosophy for busy people. Listen to a succinct account of the philosophy of Schopenhauer in just one hour.Arthur Schopenhauer, the 'philosopher of pessimism,' makes it clear that he regards the world and our life in it as a bad joke. However, if the world is indifferent to our fate it doesn't thwart us deliberately - its façade is supported by what Schopenhauer calls the universal Will. He saw this as a force that is blind and without purpose, bringing on all our misery and suffering.
Philosophy for busy people. Read a succinct account of the philosophy of John Dewey in just one hour.In early twentieth-century America John Dewey was regarded as the foremost philosopher of his age - no mean feat when his colleagues included the likes of Russell, Wittgenstein and Heidegger. Dewey produced a distinctly American philosophy, essentially different from that of his European contemporaries - his pragmatic theory of 'instrumentalism' or 'experimentalism', relying on modern experimental methods to prove truth and reality.
Media, Markets, and Morals provides an original ethical framework designed specifically for evaluating ethical issues in the media, including new media. The authors apply their account of the moral role of the media, in their dual capacity as information providers for the public good and as businesses run for profit, to specific morally problematic practices and question how ethical behavior can be promoted within the industry.

- Beautiful but not functional for me. Review by Lola2
While the boxy is pretty and I wanted to make it work I just couldn't. The bag was just too square for me and I didn't like the carrying of it. It was heady and combersom and too bulky

great products and a wonderful company! Worth every penny!(Posted on 3/20/13)

Current Record: beforeAddRelatedRecordbeforeAddRelatedRecord Delegate Class Method[Permalink]Return to Delegate class methods
SynopsisThe beforeAddRelatedRecord delegate class method can be implemented in any table's delegate class. It will be executed before any related record is added to that table's relationships. Since it will be fired for all relationships on the table, you will have to include logic to only execute if the relationship that you are targeting is being added to. Method Signature
It is quite common to return a permission denied error from this method after doing some checks. e.g.
ExamplesExample 1: Permission Check
The above example requires a little bit of context to understand. This method is defined in the 'users' table. There is a relationship between the users table and the programs table called 'program_roles'. It keeps track of the roles that users have with respect to programs. There is a mirror relationshp in the programs table that goes to the users table, also named program_roles. Both the users table and the programs table contain rel_program_roles__roles() methods to define who can and cannot add to this relationship. However these don't discern on the content that is being added to the relationship, so it is still possible that an ineligible program could be added to the relationship via the users table (or vice versa). So, in the users table we defined the beforeAddRelatedRecord above which checks the permissions of the programs table to see if that particular program can be added to this relationship by this user.

Flu season in Mid-South early, forcing several schools to shut down | Health
Flu season is attacking the Mid-South early this year, forcing several schools to shut their doors until next week.
Both Tennessee and Mississippi are listed at the top for the hardest hit states in the nation.
Right now at least three schools in West Tennessee have confirmed they will NOT re-open until Monday because of the flu - Whitehall Pre-Kindergarten, Trinity Christian Academy, and the University School of Jackson. All are in Madison County.
A school near Knoxville has also shut down with nearly 200 kids sick at home.
Experts said the flu thrives in dry conditions and on any object you touch!
With the holidays around the corner, the virus could spread even faster.
Doctors said if you haven't gotten your flu shot or nasal mist yet, then to do it now.
"A lot of the viral infections are spread person to person, hand to mouth. The best protection is hand washing," said physician Ken Devellis
If you do get sick, make sure to stay at home so others won't get sick!
Get rest, drink plenty of liquids, and take medicine to relieve those symptoms!
We are in touch with Memphis School leaders who have not seen any outbreaks yet.
They are monitoring school attendance and are in contact with the Shelby County health department.

I'd be happy to build ya one Alex! It would cost ya a bit more than normal cause I'd have to ship it (shipping costs) to an FFL in your neck of the woods so he could do a transfer for ya. But good ones normally only charge around 25 bucks for the transfer.

how did the shit residue get up there above the butthole? that looks like contact transfer, but she obviously didn't have any bottoms on when the shit came forth. it really does look real, the way it's all bunched up and then straightens out as it gets close to the butthole. i'm not saying it's fake shit, just a matter of whether it was hers or someone put it on her. it appears to have come out pretty straight forward. no signs of explosion, so where do the upper stains come from?

"On one occasion, Downing instructed Unger to beat an effigy of his mother with a tennis racket, as though killing her, and encouraged Unger to scream at his mother while beating her effigy," the suit said.
"Conversion therapy was, in Unger's experience, 'psychological abuse,'" it said. "By the time he terminated sessions with JONAH, he was deeply depressed and had commenced taking antidepressant medications."
Downing "picked apart every human emotion and childhood disappointment" of Unger, to present them as treatable origins of Unger's orientation, the suit said.
"I watched as grown men were frenzied into fits of emotional rage against their mothers and encouraged to act out physical violence against their parents in order to access their so-called true manhood and become more heterosexual," Ferguson told reporters Tuesday.
Unger's ability to have physical and emotional relationships with men was impaired and he was unable to work for a year, the suit said.
Bruck, Levin, Unger and Ferguson are "adjusting well" four years after their last conversion therapy treatments, according to Wolfe. "They have had time to get on with their lives," he said.

Today would have been my father's 75th birthday. I miss him so much there is a physical ache in my heart. He was my biggest cheerleader, the shoulder I cried on, my inspiration to do well, and my in case of emergency person. No matter what obstacle I faced, he knew exactly what to say and how to say it to enable me to jump over it and get back on track. He was wonderful.
He believed in me when I couldn't, shone a light when I was in the dark, made me laugh through tears, and loved my son in a way that made my heart sing. I have not written here all week because I needed to take a break, but I am writing today in honor of my dad. The fog has lifted and I am able to move forward because once again my beloved father has managed to help me.
My father used to always tell me I was going to be fine. I actually say it about myself a lot now. I am always fine. It occured to me this week however, that fine is not good enough. Life is a blessing and while getting through days just being fine is sometimes enough, we must strive for more than just fine. I want to be fine, fabulous, connected, satisfied, joyful, wise, and happy.
What I want most is to be happy. When I was little and my father would ask me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I woud always say I wanted to be happy. I have not been happy lately but that is going to change. I am in charge of my happiness. I can choose to be happy or I can choose to simply be fine. I will have down times of course, but happiness trumps it all.
Yesterday I managed to muster up some bravery and reached out to someone who matters to me, but I had pushed away. I extended a hand and it was accepted. We spent some time together and it great. Really, really, really great. Risk requires bravery, and bravery can bring rewards. Last night I felt really happy and it was a truly wonderful thing.
I woke up this morning and Googled the word HAPPY to find a quote of some kind to dedicate to my Dad for his birthday. My son suggested a video and it is so special I had to share. You may or may not have heard the song, or be familiar with the video, so sharing it makes me happy. Every single second of this song makes me happy.
I encourage you to visit http://24hoursofhappy.com because it will make you happy. Artist Pharrell Williams, who I have long thought was a genius, has created a 24 hour video. You read that right, 24 hours of random Los Angeles residents lipsyncing the catchy, groovy, and uplifting "Happy" from the Despicable Me Soundtrrack. It really is perfect.
Click through different times of the video, or simply watch when you can, but get through the 24 hours because there are some delicious people who will simply make you happy. If you start at midnight of the 24 hour version, the first person is Pharrell himself. On what is a melancoly day spent missing my Dad, it is now a day of happiness and joyful memories.
I am sad that my father is no longer living, but I am happy for the time we had together and that he was able to know my son. I am sad I wasted time allowing my past to effect my actions, but happy that I came through to a new day. I posted the official video below and I cannot imagine anyone will listen to it and not smile. Pharrell has made me happy.
The best way for me to honor the memory of my Dad is to be happy. It is lovely to donate my hair in his name, it is lovely to keep him in my prayers, it is lovely to teach my son all about him so he is not forgotten. What truly is required of me however, is to be happy because in doing so his dreams for me come true. That is a lovely gift I can still give to my Dad.
Happy Birthday to my wonderful father Robert Angel. Dad, I want you to know not only am I fine, but I am happy. I was quiet this week and found you in the silence. You came to save me like you always do. I feel you in my heart and see you in my son's eyes. Thank you for reminding me to be brave and teaching me to not settle for fine. Your lessons remind me to keep the faith.

I have not slept in two days. It is bad. I am exhausted. No physically, but mentally. When one doesn't sleep the only thing to do is think and no good can come of that. I am at a crossroads in my life and I feel like there is a fork in the road with decisions to be made. I am fighting my demons and for the first time in a long time they are winning and I am struggling.
I am blessed in many ways, but there are times when being able to see blessings and give them power over your choices becomes difficult. I am a great mother, but feel like I am not being a good mom at the moment. I am a great friend, but isolating myself. I am a great writer, but not focused. I am a woman who leans on God, but not feeling connected to faith.
I share everything here, maybe more than I should, and yet there is much more to be said. I am embraced and supported by my readers, but attacked and humiliated by those who don't agree with my writing. It is exhausting, confusing, and in the end I need a break. Not because I don't want to write about my life anymore, but because I feel a need to be quiet.
The stress is taking a toll on me. I am not being my best self because I am always worried about what other people think, and in doing so I have lost focus on what I think. I have always been someone who didn't really care what other people thought about me, but deep down wanted people to be kind. I realized while not sleeping that many people are unkind.
I am not being kind to myself, or people I care about. The demons I battle are guiding my actions and it has got to stop. I work hard to not allow my past experiences or relationships to define me, but for the past few weeks I have become the person I fight not to be. It makes me sad, angry, scared, and reckless in how I handle myself with people I care about.
I think the best thing I can do for myself is take a break. I have been writing every day for four years and I need to rethink how I live my life, rather than write about it. I don't know if this is fueled by the thought of my son going away to university, or because I allowed my history to embarrass myself with a man I care about, but either way, I am tired.
The simple truth is that in sharing myself I have allowed myself to be vulnerable, which is something I am not comfortable with. I like to think I am a tough broad but in the end I am sensitive and people are hurting my feelings. I am not as resilient as I usually am, probably because I am so tired. I am going to take a few days to rest, pray, and refocus.
It all sounds silly I suppose, and dramatic to be sure, but the truth is that when you give of yourself, sometimes you need to refuel your soul in order to continue giving. I will get over being hurt by a hateful few, I will survive the humiliation of being crazy in front of a man, and I will find my way back to faith because it is God who holds my hand through this life.
To the people who write to say my words help them, thank you. To the people who write to tell me I am going to hell, thank you. To my friends who are being patient, thank you. To my family who hug me from afar, thank you. To my son for everything, thank you. A couple days of prayer and quiet will get me back on track and I'll be stronger and better than ever.
By better than ever of course I mean a few crazy people on Twitter, demons from a history that no longer matters, and a lack of sleep will not break me. I have survived greater things and this too shall pass. Life really is a blessing and even when you live to be very old, it is never long enough, so count your blessings, put a smile on your face, and keep the faith.

November 22 marks what would have been my father's 75th birthday. He passed away from cancer and as the date approaches I find myself getting sad and angry. Sad he is not here, and angry cancer is such a vicious bitch. I am going through a transition of some kind and while not sure exactly what I am feeling, his birthday is making me want to find a way to start fresh.
I have been going through old pictures and the last time my entire family was together and all dolled up, was at my brother's wedding about 12 years ago. I found a beautiful photograph of my parents, sisters, brother, and me. I had a shoulder length bob and am standing next to my Dad with his arm around me. I decided then I was going to cut my hair back to a short bob.
My father's name is Robert, so a "Bob" made sense. I could tuck my hair into my pants it was so long and the thought of cutting it was scary. I decided to donate my hair to Locks of Love in honor of my dad. I made an appointment and tweeted about it so it was out there and I couldn't change my mind. Thursday was the day. I was nervous.
I called my stylist ahead of time and told her what I was doing and that she should not talk me out of it. I have spent years going in and insisting she just trim it, so I needed her to know I was really doing it and she needed to just cut it without talking about it. I walked in, she hugged me, and got to chopping without questions, but with encouragement and a smile.
When she did the first cut I started to cry. Not because my long hair was gone, but for other reasons. I cried for my dad, for cancer, for my son going to college, for the confusion of dating and pushing away a man I care about, and maybe just a little bit for my hair. Over the years I had somehow decided my hair had Samson strength, which is silly.
When I woke up today and remembered what I had done, I was in a bit of shock. I went to brush my hair and the long stroke I was used to now took a second, so I panicked. I took the picture from my brother's wedding and put it next to the mirror, and as I brushed my hair and looked at my dad I cried again. Not because I was sad, but because I was blessed.
I will look at that picture everyday and remember the haircut I have now is the style my father last saw me with. As his birthday approaches I will remember everything about my dad, and as he looks down to make sure I am okay, he will see my short hair and remember when we were all together. In going back I am able to start fresh, and be reminded to keep the faith.

I recently got a tweet from matchmaker and relationship expert Siggy Flicker telling me she was a fan of this blog and thought I was a brave and honest writer. It was lovely, and a big deal because I think Siggy is great and am a fan of hers. I first became aware of her through The Wendy Williams Show, and once I discovered her, I read her articles and thought she had an interesting perspective on dating and relationships. It was sweet of her to speak so kindly about my work and not point out the obvious, that my recent relationships have not ended well.
I reached out to Siggy and asked her if she would be up for an interview. Partly because she is fascinating and I thought you would enjoy meeting her, but also because I figured I could get some advice and guidance. She is a no holds barred woman and manages to be brutally honest without being mean. Unlike a certain matchmaker on Bravo, Siggy is classy, enlightened, experienced, and has a history that makes her an expert. I learned things about Siggy I did not know, and just loved her.
Siggy and I actually have a lot in common. We were both born in Israel, both of our fathers fought in the Six Day War, and both of our families immigrated to North America after the war. We are close to the same age, have the same boldness gene, both speak our minds, and are both quite funny. The big difference, and the one I am interested in, is that when is comes to relationships and finding someone worthy of you, Siggy not only has the answers, she has a way of speaking that makes you understand.
Siggy was raised to respect herself and not compare herself to anyone else. She didn't need to worry about what other girls wore, or how they did their hair, or who they dated. She needed to be the best Siggy she could be, and that would be enough. She went through her own trials Andy tribulations as a young adult, and even when things were difficult, she reminded herself there were others who were struggling more than her, and the key was to see her blessings and know that she was in charge of her life and opportunities.
Siggy met her first husband at a Jewish singles event. They were married, lived in Florida, and had two beautiful children. She was unhappy and it took her three years to walk away from her marriage, and how she managed her divorce is truly remarkable. Siggy describes her first husband Mark as the perfect ex-husband. They put the needs and feelings of their children first and have managed to do what very few couples are able to do, and that is raise their children as parents, even though they are no longer married.
Siggy wanted to be her true, opinionated, open, brazen, bold, uninhibited, and fabulous self. Leaving her marriage was a necessity in terms of her personal happiness, but she loved who her husband was as a dad and no matter how sad and difficult the divorce was, she remembered who he was to her, what he meant to her, and his role as a father. Not only did she maintain a good relationship with her ex, when she remarried years later, first husband Mark was best man for her second husband Michael.
Yes. You read that right. Her first husband was best man at her second wedding. Can you imagine? Can you even wrap your head around the message that sends to their children? She is my hero. I not only adore her, but I respect and admire these two remarkable men. It is her personal path and experience that make Siggy so great, and even though I am unable to relate to her divorce, I relate to her as a woman. Not only the woman that I want to be, but the woman I know I am. Siggy had some sage advice.
Siggy says that when dating, go out with married or unavailable friends. You wouldn't take a bunch of other candidates with you on a job interview, so don't take other singles with you to prowl. Never thought of it that way. Brilliant. Have a cheering section with you that builds you up and reminds you are worthy. When you meet a man, you not only want him to step up to the plate, you want him to go to bat and make a real effort to hit it out of the park. That hit home with me in a rather profound way.
When I spoke of my past couple of relationships, Siggy let me have it. She was firm and clear that I was not with the right men and that "rejection is God's protection". Love that. She told me I need to be selfish and do things just for me. Get out there and enjoy something I love and it would open my heart and mind. I'm not sure what that thing will be, but I will find it. She reminded me I need to be aware because I could go somewhere and perhaps not meet the man of my dreams, but I could meet his sister. We must broaden our perspective.
Siggy told me we need to look up and pay attention. People tend to look down and avoid eye contact, but eye contact is important. It is when we look that we will see possibilities, so we owe it to ourselves to look up and see what we are meant to see. Amen. When it comes to sex, Siggy used a fantastic analogy. When you read a book you don't start on chapter 8, so when dating, don't start with sex because you are skipping a lot of chapters. Take your time and let someone earn the privilege of being with you.
I spoke with Ms. Flicker for an hour and could have chatted all day. She was kind and smart and allowed me to look at my recent disappointments with a new perspective. Dating is hard and love is difficult to find, but the only way I will meet the right someone is if I don't give up. By the end of our talk she was trying to fix me up with someone, and even though I cried when I got off the phone with her, mostly from emotional exhaustion, I made a date for this weekend because she won't let me give up on myself or love, reminding me to keep the faith.

Someone recently posted on Facebook that one day they would blow their grandchildren's minds when they told them they were older than the Internet. Very cool and crazy. We are so dependant on modern technology it is hard to imagine how we grew up without the things we have. My son is part of a generation being raised in a world that has never been so small. He is more knowledgeable about technology at 17 than I will ever be.
I was speaking with my sister Roni today about how I needed a new phone and was sticking with the iPhone. We got to talking about technology and how much our Dad would have loved the iPhone. We chatted about how our Dad would have been fascinated with current technology. He would have loved, embraced, and mastered every new gadget. He was a tech nerd and it is so sad he missed out on this amazing time in our history.
We cried as we thought about what he was missing. Our dad loved the movie The Longest Yard and would have hated the remake. He read Tinker, Tailor, Soldier Spy once a year, and would have loved to see the movie adaptation. He would have loved Facetime and talked to his kids and grandkids every day, and thought a car navigation was awesome, but would only use it when he was alone so we would think he always knew where he was going.
He would have been thrilled when my son went to Israel and his heart would soar to know my boy is hoping to attend university in his beloved England. My Dad was an amazing man. Funny, smart, kind, fearless, bold, and in love with his kids and grandchildren. He took pride in the smallest things and encouraged us in all that we did. He was fascinated by technology and would be blown away by it today.
I miss my dad every single day. We all do. We wish he were still here to see the world changing and his grandchildren growing up. He always had an answer to every question and a solution to every problem. We were very similar and would occasionally but heads, but he was my hero and I love him. I would give anything to have him here and still cannot wrap my head around his dying when he was only 63 years old. He should be with us right now.
The technological advances in my lifetime are mindboggling, and the world will change in leaps and bounds in my son's lifetime. I pray my child is of the generation that sees a cure for cancer, an end to hunger, religious freedom, equality for women, equality for love, and an iPhone that does not have endless upgrades that make no sense. The world is amazing, technology knows no bounds, and cures are close, so I am keeping the faith.

This is a day to celebrate the service of all veterans. While Memorial Day is a time of remembrance for those lost while serving, today is about celebrating those who have served, dn those currently dedicating their lives to our freedom and safety. It is okay to wish people a Happy Veteran's Day because this is a day to salute the men and women of the armed forces.
I am in awe of those who serve and am grateful for not only their sacrifices, but those of their families. When someone makes the choice to be a soldier they take their entire family on the journey with them, and I thank every soldier and every military family for all that they do. Every single person who works in the military, and for the military, is a hero.
If you see a soldier today, thank them. If you are a soldier, I thank you. We are blessed to live in America and that blessing comes to us on the shoulders of millions of men and women who make sacrifices on our behalf. I hope you enjoy this day because it is for you. I pray you are safe and know that it is because of you that I am free to keep the faith.

From the moment I got pregnant I started to wait. It took me a long time, and a lot of infertility treatments to get pregnant, and when I found out I was going to have a baby my life became a waiting game. I was nervous during my pregnancy and so I would wait for my doctor appointments, and go more often than was necessary, just so I could be calm.
My son was due January 11th. I had him January 18th, and so I waited. I waited for him to sleep, waited for him to wake up, waited for him to walk, waited for him to sit, waited for him to talk, waited for him to be quiet. I wait for him to drive, wait for him to get home, wait for him to call, and wait for him to ask me for money. There is a lot of waiting.
Don't even get me started on my literal waiting on him. I cook his breakfast, lunch and dinner, bus his table, do his dishes, and have never once been left a tip. I do his laundry, pay for his gas, and still no tip. I wonder what would happen if I refused him service. Waiters do it all the time. Who am I kidding? I like waiting on him, I just don't like waiting for him.
I spend a lot of my time these days waiting for him to spend time with me. He is busy with friends, school, activities, and college applications. I know he has a lot of things going on, and wants to spend time with a lot of people during his senior year, but I want him all to myself. I am not sure what I will do when he goes away to school, and so I wait again.
It is one thing to wait for your child when you know he is coming home. Whether at school or out with his friends, I know he is coming home at some point and so it is easy. Stressful as he is driving himself around, but easy in that I know he will be tucked in his bed at night. When he is at university, which may be in another country, it will be hard.
I am not sure if my son knows how much waiting I do because there are times he seems to be unaware, and not particularly concerned with my waiting. Maybe when he has his own child he will get it, but maybe not. I raised him alone and God willing he will raise him with a loving wife and other children, so the burden of waiting will be shared.
This weekend was a lot of waiting. Waiting that involved crying. He went out on Friday night with friends. His night out turned into him coming home at midnight with three friends. They slept over and I made them all a huge breakfast on Saturday morning. My son went to drive his friends home and I did not see him again until after 11:00 at night.
Driving them home turned into hanging at the mall, which turned into lunch, which turned into hanging out at a friend's house, which tuned into dinner, which turned into going back to the mall. He came home exhausted and went straight to bed. He then got up at 7:30 Sunday morning and went to some trade show for vintage posters or something.
He got home just in time for me to start working. I have spent no time with him this weekend and it makes me sad. It also makes me a little bit angry. I want to be selfish and hide his car keys so he is stuck with me. I know it is silly, but I miss him. I want him to need me. I also want him to make me a priority in terms of his time, which is ridiculous.
He is a wonderful human being and I am blessed to be his mother, so I wait. I suppose motherhood is about waiting forever. I will now prepare to wait for him to visit, wait for his kids to come over, wait for him to look at his children the way I look at him, and know that I did my job right. Motherhood is all about blessings, waiting, and keeping the faith.

Part of what makes dating so hard is that you never know if what someone new tells you is true. You never know if someone you've known forever is telling the truth, so the expectation someone new will, is a leap of faith. It is not enough to just be attracted to someone. There has got to be a connection that involves a melding of lives. At least for me there does.
I am not interested in a sexual relationship that does not involve relations outside of sex. If I am going to be completely honest, which I always am, I am lonely. I like being alone, and have a full life, but when it comes to having a man in my life I have been lonely. It is not about sex, it is about life. I want to have a witness to my life and the search is exhausting.
I am realistic about love. Hopefully romantic to be sure, but still realistic. I believe love can be found and am certain I will find it, yet struggle most days to keep looking. It's not just exhausting to look for him, but is equally as tiring to keep yourself available for him to find you. When I meet someone who touches my heart I jump in without reservation.
People say things when they are beginning relationships that may be more about putting their best foot forward as opposed to complete honesty. It is not done out of malice, but out of a need to be accepted and respected. I am unusual in that I am honest, open, and unafraid to communicate from the very beginning. I don't want the confusion of dishonesty.
I am not good at guessing what someone is thinking. Assumptions are a relationship killer so I try to not assume, but if I am unclear on what someone is thinking or feeling, assumptions become required in order to calm my mind. I will be patient because the person I care about is worth it. I will not be stupid however, because I am worth it. It is hard.
When you date at this age it is not about coming in 1st place. We have lived entire lives already so a person's kids will come first. We are all working and supporting families, knowing we are getting older and will not work forever, so work comes in 2nd. With busy schedules, work, and kids, extended family comes in 3rd. If you're lucky you get 4th place.
The good thing about 4th place is you can see the finish line and know you will make it there. You will eventually merge with 1, 2, and 3, and there will be room for all of you on the podium. It takes a conscious decision to prioritize a relationship within an already full life. It is made more difficult if you are not used to having a partner in your life.
I will happily settle into 4th place because I know it is a steppingstone. A man in my life will begin in 3rd place because my son is my only family here, with everyone else in Canada. It is hard for me to be far from them, but the man in my life gets to skip 4th place, which is a nice thing. You see the finish line from 4th place, but it is hard to detect it from 5th place.
When the person you are dating chooses to make 4th place for everything else in his life, then assigns you 5th place, it hurts your feelings and makes you feel unworthy. Rather than striving for the finish line, you are faced with the decision of just throwing in the towel. In 4th place there is hope to medal, but it's a long shot for 5th place, so why bother?
The frustrating thing about dating is you can't assign yourself a position. Even if you are willing to come in 4th, which most women are not, you have to wait and see where you are placed. When you receive placement, you can decide whether you want to keep racing or give up and move to another race. For some they give up all together and just stop racing.
My son knows that no matter what my job, or who I date, he is in 1st place. Kids should always know the feeling of getting gold in their family. Work and family will always battle for their posiiton, trading 2nd and 3rd place often. Assinging 4th position to someone new is a big deal and requires you to not only see their value, but know you are worthy of joy.
I am not sure if it is insecurity, loneliness, history, or simply the need to have clarity, but I am not able to settle into 5th place. I want to be with someone who considers me a priority not an option. I have met a truly remarkable man. He is funny, kind, smart, and sexy. He makes me want to be brave and gives me clarity on my blessings, but he has no open positions.
One can be hopeful about getting a better placement, but waiting allows stress and drama to creep in. I wish it were easier but I cannot be any clearer. I will be sad if this ends, and so I hope. Hope he wants to find a place for me. Seeing the finish line gives one hope, but sometimes hope comes when you simply hear someone cheering you on.
Dating is hard and the truth is that position matters. I am willing to be in 4th place because I believe kids come first, appreciate the pressures of work, and long for my son and me to be a part of a family larger than just the two of us. I will never accept 5th place however. Loneliness is hard but if we value ourselves and find our position, we can keep the faith.

text: The pace of change and accelerated technology advances means new products/services or variants are being produced increasingly quicker as most companies try to compete in this new but constantly evolving landscape. We observe this every day and its placing a huge pressure on our organisations. This increased capability/reduced price and reduced time to market is now a factor in virtually every one of our industries. We have to compete, because if we don't then the customer base will quickly find those organisations that can and they will stop buying. Most companies address this by using traditional techniques to produce better/cheaper/faster without realising there are huge opportunities sitting "under their nose" if only they could look at their business through a different "set of glasses".

Two adults and a dog escaped unharmed from their burning home early Friday morning in La Pine.
The occupants of a home in the 15700 block of Burgess Road woke up around 2 a.m. to flames coming from the roof and wall surrounding a wood stove, according to a news release from the La Pine Rural Fire Department.
A rapid response from the fire department kept the fire contained to one wall and the attic. Two engines, one water tender and 14 firefighters responded to the structure fire, which is believed to have been caused by the stovepipe separating within the wall.
The Red Cross provided comfort kits, food, lodging and health services information to the occupants.

I think the assembly was much better to learn from this year. I'm going to try to slowly emerge to a nice person by using the steps they taught us.

Get more out of your old Sprint phone
Sprint today announced a new initiative that allows customers to activate old Sprint-branded handsets on a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO).
Sprint says that the program, called Bring Your Own Sprint Device, aims to cut down on the volume of cell phones being thrown away or improperly disposed of each year. Customers, of course, benefit by not having to pay the full retail price for a new handset.
Some MVNO partners, such as EcoMobile, already offer a similar reprogramming service in the past. With today's announcement, Sprint is giving a more broad stamp of approval.

Serge Thorn describes his experiences using the SEI's Quality Attribute Workshop technique, a systematic approach to elicit needed requirements that ensures all quality attributes are included in the final design.
Software engineering educators from 14 leading institutions in the United States and abroad gathered from August 5-7, 2013, at the SEI's Pittsburgh facility for the 10th annual Architecture-Centric Engineering (ACE) Workshop for Educators.
Cybersecurity experts from the CERT Insider Threat Center at the Carnegie Mellon University Software Engineering Institute will present a free virtual event on current research aimed at establishing best practices to mitigate insider threats. "Managing the Insider Threat: What Every Organization Should Know" will take place Thursday, Aug. 8, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. EDT.
209 attendees representing 20 countries and 117 organizations convened in Minneapolis to explore numerous topics pertinent to practicing software architects at the SATURN 2013 Conference.
The SEI often works to transition mature technologies and processes to the broad software engineering community, and to accelerate the adoption and impact of software engineering improvements. In that spirit, the SEI has made all of its SOA Migration, Adoption and Reuse Technique (SMART) resources freely available.
On January 16, 2013, senior researchers from the Software Engineering Institute (SEI) hosted "Architecting in a Complex World." The live, three-hour virtual event attracted more than 1,000 registered participants from 60 countries. The SEI researchers explored ways to overcome challenging aspects of complexity.
Two SEI books published in 2012 have recently earned favorable notice, one from Forbes Magazine and the other from Intel Corporation.

Non-Elastic Crew Socks (Pkg. of 2 Pairs)
Storekeeper's Special: Save 10% when you buy 2 packages!
Cotton crew socks with non-elastic tops won't sag because the cotton is specially knit at the top to stay up. Dress weight 99% cotton with 1% nylon in the heel and toe for strength. Machine wash and dry. USA.
- Soft and silky cotton
- Sized for a proper fit
- Crew height
Our men's crew socks for sensitive feet stay up without elastic.
Non-Elastic Crew Socks (Pkg. of 2 Pairs)
No longer fit since no size 11 anymore!
I have bought these and only these socks for 20 years. I always bought size 11 until a few years back when it became unavailable. Size 11 1/2 results in socks too large in the foot, in both length and width. They no longer fit well no matter how many times I wash them. BUT they are 98% cotton and I can find no others. Am allergic to nylon and to wool. Please reinstate size 11!!

Bad socks
These socks will not stay up at all and ride down into your shoe when walking. Not worth the price.

Irreplaceable socks!
My husband absolutely refuses to wear any other sock but these, and I don't know what I'll do if you ever discontinue them. He wants all cotton. Sport socks, like Nike? Too thick. Dress-type socks from dept. stores -- even Ralph Lauren! -- don't feel right, or have a smidge of nylon, or something wrong. I order at least a dozen pairs at a time and have for more years than I can count. All in the same color -- navy. Is he a stick-in-the-mud? Yes, he is, but he's my and Vermont Country Store's stick-in-the-mud!

These crew socks are too lightweight
I found the socks to be too thin and lightweigt. After a few weeks' wear, one sock has already developed a hole at the toe. It looks like I had to sacrifice thickness and durability to have non-elastic socks. I would hope that I could have non-elastic socks which were more sturdy.
June 19, 2013
Not satisfied with this product.
For many years I have bought the crew length cotton non elastic top socks from Vermont and was highly satisfied. I mailed a cop;y of the label of the old socks with my order.
The new socks are too long, don't fit as well and are uncomfortable. Has the manufacturer been changed?

BIRDSThere are close to 10,000 known bird species worldwide. Birds are important pollinators, seed dispersers and sometimes scavengers.
Invertebrates are a dominant force in the majority of ecosystems through their ecological function, species richness, and biomass; which is fitting since they represent over 95% of all known animals on the planet.

You can make an artistic statement with these balis! It's Impressions Balis. The prints in these balis are so vibrant they look like they are moving, with curves that swirl, creating an artsy effect when put together. Add to it the bright colors and your projects are sure to turn everyone's head. Impressions Balis match well with other Benartex balis.
