He was always so happy
strong and bold.
He'd give you the shirt off of his back.
He had a rough life
growing up through the depression,
but like he always does,
he got through it.
He has two boys, of whom he is so proud.
Moved from Regina, to Victoria.
He had the best life anyone his age could have wanted.
But ever since his wife died,
he has not been the same.
But like he has always done,
he got through it.
Mind slipping,
just a little forgetful.
That's how it always starts out...
But like always, he powered through it,
until now...
He is not the same person that I used to know.
He been sentenced to the prison in his own mind.
Possessed by the thoughts of his dogs ashes.
He likes to play the blame game,
but we know he doesn't remember that it was him.
He wakes up in the night
shaking with pain,
tears streaming down his face.
There is nothing we can do,
Oh well...
Two more tylenol.
Hold on to hope
for as long as you can,
It's only a matter of time now.
He gets vocal, a very loud tone.
He'll block you in your room
and make false accusations
But we know that it's the pain induced monster in him.
Tick tock, tick tock...
You can't handle the stress anymore
you have to leave.
Just hope for the best,
maybe it will get better.
Surprise, it doesn't.
Your denial is foolish, everyone knows
what happens next.

Far away from this bonded crowd,
Far away from these layers of
Oh wings of the air glide me away,
To the world, world above the
To the giant mountains of mist,
Where sparkling houses of rain
be built,
World beneath where would be
And sun rays where will be cold
and soothing.
Where I won't be bound by laws,
And I could speak freely about
things I love aloud,
Yeah to the world with cloud
above the clouds,
Where everything just everything
will be allowed.
Sliding on morning dews that stays
till night,
Diving in the night's sky that looks
like morning light,
With no paths to follow,
I'll glide free and fast,
Yawing, pitching, bouncing,
Like the endless penumbra it's
unknown where I'll last
Yeah endless it is,
And it's unknown where I'll last

NOTE: I have placed this Poem as a Video Poem also on
[ This Poem is dedicated to Freedom of Expression
and Tibetan Dharma Guru Shri Dalai Lama to support
his struggle for the cause of Freedom of Expression ]
Take me away but I promise to sing a Song
Take me away from such a place,
Where feelings and emotions,
cannot be freely expressed.
Where new thoughts and ideas are crushed,
By the rod of power and corrupts.
Where mind do not get the opportunity to reveal,
its vast sea of beauty and varying colors.
Where love never flies freely in the sky,
while touching the unexplored lofty heights, and
wings of Poetry are nipped in the buds,
before they bloom and spread their smiles.
Where wind do not flow,
while touching the flowers and buds,
Where the butterflies do not have the freedom,
to show their varying moods and colors.
Where faiths have lost their grandeurs and glow, and
shrines are converted into suffocating barracks.
Where love has lost its magic of moving a heart,
to sing a song and dance on the call of its soul,
Where a vast sea of humans live,
without the freedom of expression.
Take me away from such a land and place,
Where people live in chains under iron curtains.
I promise I will come back to this land one day,
when the breeze will flow freely touching every heart,
When its people will have the freedom to fly on their wings,
I promise I will come back, to such a place one day,
When animals too would move without fear in their hearts, and
birds would be free to fly anywhere in the sky.
When the morning dew would greet the new rising Sun,
By glittering without fear, its silver and golden beams,
When flowers and buds would freely spread,
their alluring wings and fragrance in the air.
When the human mind would be free to explore and express,
its ideas and colors on the canvas of paper.
I promise I will come to such a land one day,
to Sing the song of joy and mirth.
Kanpur India 27th Aug. 2011
I am the hypocritical Christian.
I say I follow Christ,
But I'm still consumed by my demons.
I go to church on Sunday,
But I refuse to invite someone back.
I want to serve on mission,
But I'm too afraid to act.
They think I read The Bible,
But I just fall asleep in it.
They think I'm positivity and smiles,
But underneath I'm death and addictions.
They think I'm clean and pure,
But I'm broken and mistaken.
I say I'm not worthy of His love,
But Jesus will never let me be forsaken.
I pray long prayers,
But inside they're empty repetition.
It might look as if my faith is strong,
But my core is too easily shaken.
I say the things I'm supposed to say,
But don't follow His actions or obey.
I speak the truth the church wants to hear,
But deep inside on matters I don't know what to believe.
I walk in shame as if I'm not good enough
To be loved by God and saved through Christ,
But there is nothing I could ever do to earn His peace;
It's a free gift.
I accept;
Now forgiven, changed, and released.
Thank You God,
Thank You Jesus,
Thank You Holy Spirit!
In Jesus' Holy Name,
We pray,
Blowing through a vast crevasse –
from whirling tempest;
to calming balm on wounded skin;
to constant howl;
to sunlit kiss, onto warm lips –
I am a promise,
to the girl who waits,
within the cave, where no light shines;
where sucking blackness and decay
consumes and claws across
the barren expanse that is –
My inner child's mind.
Little Kristin, girl of 7
(when time stopped)
suspended upon a bony pillar, sits,
engulfed by craggy mountain walls –
The cave of sorrows.
A black pit surrounds the tower,
held hostage by those who would keep her silent;
(protecting the illusion at all costs)
she waits,
and as silent as the fear that creeps up
the lone pillar,
(coming for the light in her eyes)
killing slowly, methodically,
attacking light –
the light that creeps through cracks;
breaks through holes;
breathes life into darkness –
(minions of death vying to stay her shine).
Her holly-hobby night gown
(full of broken dreams)
tattered and torn,
crowns her dirty little feet.
A grayed white gag, beneath soiled cheeks –
(like apples, they used to say)
blackened by yesterday,
save for the dappled light that shines,
from green eyes –
just a glimpse…
then gone.
A tiny flame flickers, within small hands –
(holding what was stolen)
keeping the beasts at bay...
(lighting a Mother's way)
They say I was everything to the one in the photographs –
The light giver.
Light taken,
and given.
Her battery drained,
(strength offered to the shining moon)
then gone.
Permanently erased.
Eradicated, liberated (grace or fear?)
Strength was my gift born
from her weakness -
my birthright, and soul's mantra.
My soul was God's gift -
my strength,
was her gift –
I am battery doubled.
No more am I dirty black holes
hiding in shadow,
For I am wind…
I am nowhere,
And everywhere.
I am past, present and future.
My soul is freedom blowing through the cracks
left by the black maker (innocence taker);
into my darkest depths;
holding the little girl (lost, no more) –
kissing her face;
drying her tears;
leaving the cave -
carrying my child home.
Together we light
the ancient halls,
Where I am the light maker now.
Winding my way from heaven to
kissing the nose's of my five reasons
found –
My soul is wind
from the heaven's,
and these are the gifts
that my soul
Struggling to be part
Of your affectionate heart
But nothing to expect.
Searching my share of
Fragments with your mind stuff
Still longing for whiff.
Oh this life always
Mingling with equal heartaches
Destined to be parted ways.
Whether this thing exists
I still be longing with tears
My existence persist with tests.
Rushing biddable thoughts
All the years with struggles
Misdeeds cause bitterness.

Look! Tray For Magnets Over Stove
Look at this clever, pretty idea we just picked up from one of the entries in the Fall Colors Contest...
This is from the second Midwest entry:
• Rachel's Bungalow of Bright Ideas (click to see all the photos from Rachel's entry)
Rachel hung a vintage metal tray over her stove; we love how it not only beautifies her kitchen but also serves a practical purpose. She can clip recipes and notes on with magnets, and the tray comes down easily for cleaning. This is a lovely and practical backsplash; we're thinking about something similar now in our own kitchen.
Do you use something removable and washable as a backsplash behind your stove?

*slapping forehead* Perfect!
Useful, pretty, individual, simple to use . . . Falls under "why didn't *you* think of that?" (Brini Maxwell)
Well done, Rachel!
i love it
I think this may have just solved my backsplash dilemma (I have a huge unsafe electrical outlet right where a backsplash should go above the stove). Thank you, Rachel!
fantastic idea!
.... and i love that tea pot! where is it from?
I love the tray, how is it hung so that it comes off easily for cleaning?
The teapot is Martha Stewart from Macy's.
I just nailed through the tray and pre-drilled the holes in the wall. They are long enough nails and small enough holes that they fit snugly but it would be easy to pull the tray with the nails off for cleaning.
~ Rachel
This is a huge fire hazard, clipping papers above the stover's burners. Not a good idea! Not only that, but leaning and reaching way over the burners (which may still be hot even if they're off) to put up or take down notes isn't the best idea either.

My Mother's Warsby Lillian Faderman
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
An acclaimed writer on her mother's tumultuous life as a Jewish immigrant in 1930s New York and her life-long guilt when the Holocaust claims the family she left behind in Latvia
Like so many Eastern European Jewish immigrants of the time, Mary Lifton left her family in Latvia in pursuit of a better life in New York. She found work in the garment district, alongside many others from the Jewish diaspora, struggling to survive in nonunion shops, even becoming a small part of the labor union movement. Alone and subsisting on minimal wages, Mary was swept up by love in a steamy romance with a man who would force her into two back-room abortions and finally father Lillian Faderman, before disappearing from her life. But worse than his romantic betrayals, Moishe kept Mary from doing what she most needed to do: find a way to get her family out of Latvia before Hitler's Holocaust engulfed and destroyed them. In this carefully crafted and well-documented work of reconstructed memoir, Faderman offers an extraordinary lens onto the anguish of the Jewish Holocaust survivors on our shores.
About the Author
Lillian Faderman is an internationally known scholar of lesbian history and literature, as well as of ethnic and immigrant history. She is the author of such acclaimed works as To Believe in Woman, Odd Girls and Twilight Lovers, Surpassing the Love of Men, I Begin My Life All Over, and her memoir Naked in the Promised Land.

Intelligence agencies did a great job by nabbing top IM terrorists: R P N Singh
Union Minister of State for Home Ratanjit Pratap Narain Singh on Tuesday lauded intelligence agencies for achieving big success in nabbing Indian Mujahideen (IM) terrorists, and said the government will not take rest until it brings all the terrorists to justice.
"We have been successful in the last one-and-a-half years, where intelligence agencies have arrested many hardcore terrorists. With the arrest of Tehseen Akhtar alias Monu, who was apparently the new head of IM after Yasin Bhatkal, gives intelligence agencies a major success. Our government had introduced strong laws and steps, and the results are there for all to see, as we have arrested top IM terrorists like Yasin Bhatkal, Asadullah Akhtar alias Haddi, Zia-ur-Rehman alias Waqas, and now Tehseen, which have dealt a severe blow to them, we will take rest only when all the terrorists are brought to book ," Singh said.
When asked about Waqas being a prize catch as the threat perception from him was more, given that Modi was on his hit list, Singh said, "Waqas had been involved in all terrorists acts, hence, he will definitely face punishment. We are continuing our interrogation with Waqas as well as with Tehseen in order to find out that which cities were on their radar that they were planning to launch their strike and also find leads about other people in their group".
With the arrest of Tehseen, almost the entire top leadership of Indian Mujahideen has now been nabbed by the police.
Indian Mujahideen co-founder Ahmad Siddhibappa Zarar alias Yasin Bhatkal, Tehseen Akhtar alias Monu, Asadullah Akhtar alias Haddi and Zia Ur Rehman alias Waqas were the brains behind almost every IM attack on Indian soil.

My mother is a grandma and given the chance she'd do over 50gb a month! She learned about netflix and as a grandma uses her PS3 to stream Dora the Explorer ext to the grand kids. Not to mention her level 15 trophie ranking on PSN.Grandmas aren't all low bandwidth users some math the big boy in usage.--Sarick's Dungeon Clipart
Yes, it's unfair that grandma doesn't get to pay $5 for cable Internet, while the bandwidth hog pays $1000. But surely it's fairer to charge grandma $50 and the bandwidth hog $100, rather than charging everyone $60.
..and if they can't handle multiple customers having super/ultra-fast tiers, why did they offer it in the first place?
"When the president does it, that means that it is not illegal." -- President Richard Nixon
If you're willing to pay it, it's not too much.
That is the very definition of and inelastic item. People need insulin and to avoid death will pay whatever it costs to get it but that doesn't mean that the cost paid can't be excessive.
Don't eat the yellow snow!
Rocks are hard....
Comcast has no right to impede or otherwise interfere with a competitor's traffic or services requested by and routed to a Comcast internet subscriber. Comcast has no right to demand anything more.
> That's why I'd cap the MAX SPEED for those who would be willing to go with less at peak times.The technical limits of the cable system (i.e., coax cable that attenuates frequencies above 1 GHz) provide your suggested cap of MAX SPEED. The limitation is included in the design of the system. In old 300 MHz systems, an option for doubling bandwidth was to run two coax cables to everyone. Today, two options might be to: A) eliminate the hundreds of TV signals coming into our house (except the one or two that someone is actually watching) to make room for more data bandwidth, or perhaps B) replace coax with fiber.I wouldn't expect system capabilities or design to be affected by some percentage of people agreeing to a speed cap. That's just going backwards into bogus schemes that make the corporations a few extra million bucks.Build the infrastructure, free the bandwidth, and occupy comcast.
Cable operators would like for their rates not to go up as much as their consumers, but that's not an option when content owners want double and sometimes as much as 5 times what their previous contract required.
Because residential services are priced on the assumption that you will only burst to the max speed.
Max speed is not the only part of the equation. Average speed also matters. A 1.5 Mbps user who continually maxes out the connection is actually using more network resources than a 20 Mbps burst user who averages less than 1 Mbps.
But it still can't be unlimited, because the pricing of residential cable Internet is only made possible by the fact that people do not max out their connections.
Um.. If I'm paying for a 18mbps connection and I'm only getting 4, it becomes an issue. I should be getting at least between 12-18mbps constant, not whatever they feel like.
But you're not paying for 18 Mbps of sustained bandwidth. You're paying for 18 Mbps burst, and "whatever they feel like" average speed.Go to a Metro Ethernet company and see how much it costs to get 18 Mbps of dedicated bandwidth.
Did you read any of my post? I did not say I'm expecting 18Mbps all the time. I'm saying it should be at least in the same ballpark instead of half or less.
The problem is that you can never tell when a bandwidth hog will move in and wreck the calculations. Well, unless you put in caps, to keep the bandwidth hogs out.And you're opposed to caps.
..and the whole "bandwidth hog" thing is crap anyway. So, you have an OC3 connection feeding hundreds of customers that have purchased a 5mbps connection. Then a "bandwidth hog" comes in and uses a bit of it. Hey, he's paying for the 5mbps connection that you advertised. Then everyone's connection slows down because you failed to account for people actually using their connection speeds.
It's simple math. 5Mbps * 100 customers = 500Mbps.

In searching for the John Herrera whose wedding was held a few weeks after Johnnie disappeared (I'd be willing to be that this is indeed the same person the bachelor party was held for on 8/27/71.), I found out that this John Herrera graduated from Oxnard High School in 1965 and has since died.
Something bothers me about how Johnnie was reported missing. Not only was it five days after he vanished (I know there's usually a 48 hour waiting period before you can report an adult missing), but it was his brother who reported him missing. Wouldn't you think it would be Johnnie's wife who would have made the report?
Ms. Fenton told me that there were "indications" (her word, not mine) that Johnnie and his wife were having both financial and relationship problems and that people have suggested that Johnnie only married her because he got her pregnant. If things were that bad, could they have been separated and therefore not living under the same roof at the time? Perhaps he was living with his brother at the time? I just can't imagine a young woman (I'm assuming she was about Johnnie's age) with a baby whose husband didn't come home after a night out waiting five days without going to the authorities, even if they weren't getting along.
Does that strike anyone else as a little odd, or is it just me? I'm not making accusations, just observations.

From One Survivor to Another
"I am Adam Lanza's Mother" makes me so incredibly angry.
[trigger warning: child abuse]
I was that kid.
I was being sexually abused by a family member. I was depressed, suicidal, and I had an eating disorder. I had a chronic illness and I had so many good reasons to be in pain. I was in so much pain that I tried killing myself two times. I was hurting so badly that I used to entertain the idea of a Columbine style massacre.
I was Liza Long's son. My mom was exactly like her. There were moments when she stepped out, when she stopped being a parent and I was alone, by myself, with zero guidance. I was Liza Long's son, neglected and scared and desperate for someone to help me.
But I was only that son for a few moments.
The difference is that after stepping back for a few hours or a day to collect herself, my mom was a responsible adult and decided to keep being my mom.
The difference is that my mom never had fantasies of murdering, beating, or neglecting me.
The difference is that my mom realized that I was only a child, not some fucked up, self-absorbed, victimizing fantasy of a devil-spawn.
The difference is that when my mom knew she couldn't handle things, instead of publicly attacking a defenseless child, she had her friends and church help her.
The difference is that my mom recognized the power she had to help me instead of focusing on the few moments when i scared her.
The difference is that when I threatened to hurt her, my mom feared more for my safety than hers.
The difference is that my mom never gave up on me. She kept trying, taking me to counseling, leaving meals at my door, pushing through two line conversations, and crying with me.
And eventually, it worked. Eventually I got better. It took a very long time, and I'm still trying even today, but I did get better.
I got better because my mom realized the most important thing about raising a child who is in a lot of pain; he is hurting much more than you are, and he only has half of the tools to deal with it.
That is the difference between my mother and Liza Long. That difference is what stops kids from becoming monsters.
Liza Long has it all backwards. Monsters are made, not born.
My mom stopped me from becoming one.

Are we ready for contact with extraterrestrial intelligence?Español
The SETI project scientists are known for tracking possible extraterrestrial signals, but now they are also considering sending messages from Earth telling of our position. A researcher from the University of Cádiz (Spain) questions this idea in view of the results from a survey taken by students, revealing the general level of ignorance about the cosmos and the influence of religion when tackling these matters.
The Search for ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence (SETI) project is an initiative that began in the 70s with funding from NASA, but that has evolved towards the collaboration of millions of Internet users for the processing of data from the Arecibo Observatory (Puerto Rico), where space tracking is carried out.
Now the members of this controversial project are trying to go further and not only search for extraterrestrial signs, but also actively send messages from Earth (Active SETI) to detect possible extraterrestrial civilisations. Astrophysicists, such as Stephen Hawking, have already warned of the risk that this implies for humanity, since it could favour the arrival of beings with more advanced technology and dubious intentions.
The ethical and sociological implications of this proposal have been analysed by the neuro-psychologist Gabriel G. de la Torre, professor at the University of Cádiz and participant in previous projects such as Mars 500 or space psychology topical team project financed by the European Space Agency, who wonders: "Can such a decision be taken on behalf of the whole planet? What would happen if it was successful and 'someone' received our signal? Are we prepared for this type of contact?"
To answer these questions, the professor sent a questionnaire to 116 American, Italian and Spanish university students. The survey assessed their knowledge of astronomy, their level of perception of the physical environment, their opinion on the place that things occupy in the cosmos, as well as religious questions – for example, "do you believe that God created the universe?" – or on the likelihood of contact with extraterrestrials.
The results, published in the journal 'Acta Astronautica', indicate that, as a species, humanity is still not ready for trying to actively contact a supposed extraterrestrial civilisation, since people lack knowledge and preparation. For this reason, SETI researchers are recommended in this study to look for alternative strategies.
"This pilot study demonstrates that the knowledge of the general public of a certain education level about the cosmos and our place within it is still poor. Therefore, a cosmic awareness must be further promoted – where our mind is increasingly conscious of the global reality that surrounds us – using the best tool available to us: education," De la Torre emphasised. "In this respect, we need a new Galileo to lead this journey".
It was deduced from the questionnaires, which will soon be available to everyone on line, that university students and the rest of society lack awareness on many astronomical aspects, despite the enormous progress of science and technology. It also revealed that the majority of people consider these subjects according to their religious belief and that they would rely on politicians in the event of a huge global-scale crisis having to be resolved.
"Regarding our relation with a possible intelligent extraterrestrial life, we should not rely on moral reference points of thought, since they are heavily influenced by religion. Why should some more intelligent beings be 'good'?," added the researcher, who believes that this matter should not be monopolized by a handful of scientists: "In fact, it is a global matter with a strong ethical component in which we must all participate".
Gabriel G. De la Torre. "Toward a new cosmic consciousness: Psychoeducational aspects of contact with extraterrestrial civilizations". Acta Astronautica 94 (2): 577–583, 2014.

ThiIng is...all these comments above are from intelligent people, who care about decency and dare I say it, righteousness. Not in the religious sense. Don't let your eyes glaze over! Perhaps the plebs put there are not ready, ok definitely not! But they never will be! Like a mussel that will not open to let in the light. You may need a screw driver lol! But you guys sound more than ready to me, and are not alone!
Seriously, I'm sure that aliens walk among us. In many forms. Some have come recently, others Hundreds or thousands of years ago, staying and reincarnating as earthlings, still others just the descendants thereof.
The stupid thing is, if an intelligent life form comes from faraway, they have the technology and power to override government issue weapons. That is a given. Most likely the intellectual and emotional advancement to know better than to rape and pillage. Many assume violence on the part of " invaders" because of their own impure hearts.
It's also prety presumptuous to think they want the same resources as are commodities here, and who is to say they are not using the slag left from what is mined for their own projects for example, or some aquatic algae as rocket fuel?
It's stupid for earth dwellers to place the same petameters on another race that they themselves are limited to.
I for one would welcome some intelligent, compassionate beings who could scare the shit out of those who think they can run roughshod over you, my cat, the environment and not have any consequences.
Only one slight criticism carol, what makes you think ETs threaten Christians and Muslims etc? Have you not heard of the burning, bush, god in the sky clouds, the guiding star of Bethlehem, Mary's assumption?
Lots of reference to aliens, IMO, in a lot of religious stories.
(21) Carol Drummond |Friday 09 May 2014 9:43:05 am
The general population is not ready to communicate with extraterrestrials yet. We cannot communicate with each other without violent disagreement. We are far to primitive. A large proportion of the world still believes in Iron Age writings and myths. Can you imagine how Christian and Muslims would react to something so incredibly threatening to their belief that MAN is not the ultimate creation of THEIR particular deity...... The extraterrestrial would be a target for all the nutters out there!!! I am sure we will not be visited for many thousands of years until we are mentally and socially more developed.
(21) Kemal Gencay |Thursday 08 May 2014 10:58:26 am
Maybe this will broaden the outlook
(21) Moedji Raharto |Thursday 08 May 2014 9:39:56 am
To improve our readyness to contact with ETI, I agree through education, but it is also to improve our personality or character for better life due our population on the earth will be incease up to several billions in the coming several years. Our SETI project spend more time and resources which may compete with our basic need for a life. It will degrade our present situation into more chaotic situation. War and war again among the nation or group of society will be happen in near future.
(21) Blanca Padron-Delgado |Wednesday 07 May 2014 11:51:15 pm
I believe that most humans have little or no knowledge of the universe because our society's awareness is controlled by our governments ,religion and media.
Has no one here heard of Professor John E. Mack? He researched hundreds of patients recounting the same incidents know as alien abductions and verified that they were not mentally unstable and in fact that there was something very real happening to these people. He was convinced that actual contact was being made and that governments, scientists and doctors should investigate further. His patients told him how they were removed from their earthly environment, medically examined and some even had telepathic communication with the extraterrestrials. Unfortunately his life came to screeching stop when he was hit by a car while walking from a conference in London. Read the books!!

3 Ways To Spring Clean Your Financial House
So you've done your taxes (or at least filed your extension) and completed t annual spring cleaning. What's left? It's time to dust off the calculator, wipe the cobwebs off your filing cabinet, and clean out your financial house. With your taxes organized, it's the perfect opportunity to get your finances in order for the rest of the year.
How do you clean your financial house, you ask? Other than taking the cash out of your purse and putting it through the washer, here are a few ideas:
1. Clean Out Your Filing Cabinet.
You don't need to keep every document. Here's a list of common statements you should clean out.
- Tax Returns – The IRS statute of limitations on audits are 3 years from the date you filed the return, or 2 years from when you paid the tax, whichever is later. In some cases, if you filed a fraudulent return or no return, it is recommended you keep the records for 7 years. My advice: just keep your tax records forever. You never know when you need to look up some information, especially if you own investments. If the IRS ever comes-a-knocking, you want to be able to show documentation. It's a pain to deal with the IRS when you don't have documentation.
- Investment Accounts / Retirement Accounts– Just keep the annual statements, forever. You can throw out everything else (except for the tax statement), because the annual statements should outline all the investments and transactions. Just make sure that your statements document the amount paid for the investment, plus any capital gains, dividends, and interest (aka Cost Basis). You'll need this info for tax time, and it's a pain when you don't have it. Plus, you don't want to pay taxes on principal, and essentially get double taxed.
- Bank Statements – I would keep these forever as well. If you have an annual statement, that will suffice. I know it's just a bank statement, but if someone sues you, or you need to prove something to the IRS, you want to have these handy.
- Payroll Documents – At least 7 years. Even longer if you are a business owner. They can prove useful if you are in a dispute with an employee.
- Credit Card Statements – These aren't that important to keep around unless the statement has tax-related purchases. Keep them around for 3 years, and up to 7 years for taxes.
- Mortgage Statements – Keep them 7 years after the property is sold or when the mortgage is paid off.
- Life Insurance – Keep these statements for the life of the policy, plus 3 years.
- Medical records – Keep them for 7 years, especially if they are claimed on your taxes.
It is always better to be safe than sorry. Don't just throw statements away because you don't want them or seem like clutter. If anything, just throw them in a box. You never know when you need them. Also, just because you can access your statements online doesn't mean you shouldn't have your own paper or electronic copy. Many institutions only hold your statements for a few years, so if you don't download them in time, you may not be able to get them later. And remember to shred what you throw out – you can't be too safe in an age of identity theft.
2. Clean Out Your Budget.
This is a great time to cut out some of the fat from your budget. Below are a list of budget items that typically worth taking a look at and see if you can lower. Certainly, you'll have to do some research, but it wouldn't surprise me if you can save anywhere between $150 to $300 a month from a few easy adjustments. Many of these can be expenses can be shaved with 2 hours of work. Imagine saving $200 from 2 hours of work. That's a "pay rate" of $100/hr, and you only have to do it once, but the savings occurs every month!
- Phone Bill / Cell Phone – How many phones do you need, and do you need long distance on all of them? Downgrade your plan and save a few bucks. (saves $15/mo)
- Internet – Do you really need the fastest package? Try downgrading speeds or changing providers. Or share wireless with a neighbor. (saves $15/mo)
- Cable TV – How much TV do you watch, and do you really need all those premium channels? You can catch a lot of shows online and you can get HD for free on basic channels using rabbit ears. Plus you probably already have a DVD-subscription service, so how many movies do you really need to watch? (saves $30/mo)
- Credit Cards – Credit cards with high rates (15%+) means more of your payment goes to interest and less to paying off your balance. Try negotiating a lower rate, or transferring the balance to a lower rate card. (saves $50/mo)
- Insurance – Do some comparison shopping with your home, auto, health, and life insurance. Rate changes in combination with a change in policy terms can save you some scratch. (saves $50/mo)
- Eating Out – Honestly look at how often you eat out. Could you bring lunch to work? When making dinner, make a little extra and freeze the leftovers. It's cheaper and healthier than grabbing fast food on the way home. And what about those morning lattes? (saves $100/mo)
- Miscellaneous – Whether it is clothing, gifts, or car repairs, people always underestimate how much they actually spend on miscellaneous items. Just being conscientious of these expenses will naturally save you some money. (saves $75/mo)
If you are able to save a mere $250/mo, it's like giving yourself a pay raise of $3,000 a year. If you make $60,000, you just gave yourself a 5% pay raise. Stash that extra money away, and it'll make a huge difference towards your retirement or your kids' college fund.
3. Clean Out Your Investments.
With investments, it is so easy to set it and forget it. However, investments are something that should be monitored on a regular basis. It doesn't have to be every day (depending on what investments you have), but it should be at least annually. Here are a few ideas that will keep your investments in order.
- Consolidate Accounts – There's typically no need to have several accounts at several different institutions. For example, if you have 3 Roth IRAs at 3 different companies, you can consolidate them into one. It'll even save on annual fees, and you may even receive some discounts. Or you can open up a brokerage account, where you can have many different investments from many different institutions in one account. Less paper, less fees…it's a win win!
- Rebalance Your Portfolio – Make sure that your investments still meet your risk tolerance and investment objectives. As one investment (say stocks) grows more than another (bonds) over the course of the year, it will change the proportions of those investments relative to your portfolio. You may have more stocks than you want/need, and you may need to sell those stocks to bring your stock-to-bond ratio back on track.
- Sell The Losers – While you are rebalancing, take a look at the performance history of each investment. Performance does not simply entail rates of return, but also the amount of risk needed to achieve the return. You may be able to find better performers with less risk. Keep in mind to not compare apples to oranges. Stocks should be compared to stocks, and bonds should be compared to bonds, and so on.
If cleaning up your investments is too complex, and it is for many, it's a perfect time to look into getting some professional advice. They'll keep you organized so you don't have to do it every year.
Doing an annual cleaning of your financial house will help you have a pulse on your money. For the most part, we tend to not know what to do with our money, choose not to deal with our money, or are too overwhelmed with life to be able to manage it. Keep things simple, spend only 2 hours, and focus on one of these 3 ideas. Your money will thank you.

Snooki u are AMAZING im one of ur biggest fans!!!!!Me and my friend were wondering if could send fan mail 2 u and get a pic of Lorenzo??
i did
i have been watching tht like everyday u did good!!!!!
Nicole I do not no if you read these comments. I was just watching an episode where Gionni got all pissed off because you kissed Jenni and Ryder. I heard him say that He let you go out. Nicole dear run for the hills take the baby and leave. You have money. He is a control freak. Soon he won't let you see your friends and then he will be monitoring your every move mark my words girl. U might think u love him but he is a loser. There is nothing wrong with giving your girlfriend a kiss. He is definately not your type. You need a man that is compatible with you. If my fiance ever said the bullshit things he said to you. He would be gone. How dare he say you are a horrible mother and not the kind of women he wants. Tell him to go pound sand. Do not let him change or control you Nicole never loose your independance. U are so much better than him. U are strong beautiful and full of life and he will drain you and take that all away. Stand up to the Asshole do not let him treat you like that. He can't take away your baby. Never worry about that . U have done nothing wrong. Be strong girl good luck
well if you really care about Nicole so much than how can you even say so many bad things about the father of her child… Nicole is a very clever woman and I am sure she knows what's best for her and her baby boy… TV doesn't always show everything that has been going on in their life, so I think it should be up to Nicole whatever she wants to do she'll do it… She is a strong woman….
I watched you on wwe raw and wredtlemania. You were great you have skillz. And I watched the season 2 finalie of snooki and jwoww can it come back for another season

Being Sandra Bullock
7/26/13 in Locker Room | Jess | 35106 respect
In case you've missed them, don't forget to go take the opportunity to recast Nicolas Cage, Tom Cruise, Kevin Costner, Tom Hanks, and Sarah Jessica Parker.
Before you do that though, recast Sandra Bullock with anyone else in anything she's been in. Maybe you think someone else would be just as good or better. Or, maybe you just want to see a different perspective. Just pick a movie and recast! If the one you want isn't here, use it anyway!

Armando Fulgencio was a graduating senior at Turlock High School in 2006 when he took part in the THS Etiquette Program.
When 2003 Turlock High graduate Joana Morris attended a career fair at as a high school student she never imagined she would land a job with Bank of America. Just a senior in high school at the time she was hired on the spot as a bank teller. Now, nearly a decade later, she is an accounts manager with B of A.
Joseph Sheley, provost and vice president for Academic Affairs at California State University, Sacramento, has been named interim president of CSU Stanislaus.
Jill Stearns, the vice president of Educational Services and chief instructional officer at West Hills College in Coalinga, Calif., has been named the new president of Modesto Junior College.
The eCademy Charter at Crane opened at the beginning of the school year with high hopes and aspirations, and while it has not been easy launching the Turlock Unified School District's newest school, coordinator Manuel Cobarruvias said the year has been a success.
Three local educators from three different Turlock schools were named finalists for the 2012 Stanislaus County Teacher of the Year award.
The decision of the Denair Unified School District to spend federal Jobs Bill funding on giving three principals one-time bonuses of $10,000 each was met with questions by some in the community, but DUSD officials say the money was put to good use.
Walnut Elementary Education Center's Discovery Green and Gold teams had strong showings last Saturday at the Stanislaus County Office of Education's 2012 Elementary Science Olympiad.
Pitman High School sophomore Tim Truax earned the state title in impromptu public speaking at the California FFA Leadership Conference, held last weekend in Fresno. For the impromptu speaking category participants are given a topic and a few minutes to prepare before presenting a speech on that particular topic. Truax is now eligible to participate in the national competition later this year.

Just three weeks after California State University, Stanislaus' Warrior Day was cancelled, the annual festival has been reinstated.
Schools throughout Turlock Unified School District have been looking significantly redder this week and it's not due to early Christmas decorations. In fact, the extra hues of red throughout the district can be attributed to Red Ribbon Week, a week-long event that encourages students to be drug free.
Two weeks after parents and community members voiced their concerns about the Turlock Unified School District's lack of an accelerated math course at the junior high level, TUSD has Common Core Math 7 Honors and Common Core Math 8 Honors courses in the works.
Crowell Elementary School's Head Start Program has not only prevailed through recent budget cuts, it has thrived. According to coordinator of Turlock Unified School District Early Education Programs Judy Huerta, whatever funding they lost due to budget cuts, they have gotten back in recent years.
The feeling of frustration was palpable at Turlock Unified School District's meeting on Tuesday as the Pitman High School Band and the Board of Trustees attempted to meet each other halfway regarding transportation usage within the district.
Pitman High School English teacher Joni Busby can personally testify that kissing a pig is not as bad as it might seem. However according to Busby, it did not hurt that she did the oink-worthy task all for the school's Kiss the Pig Contest, which benefitted the American Cancer Society of Modesto.
With elections just around the corner, tension is building between community members and Delhi Unified School District Board member Jesus Rodriguez.

South Bend appears poised to back-track where busking is concerned.
At Monday's council meeting, members will be asked by the city's licensing director to suspend the enforcement of the busking ordinance.
That ordinance regulates street performers in the downtown.
It limits them to a specific area, and requires them to pay $20 for a permit.
Last month, a lawsuit was filed by the ACLU claiming that the rules violated the 1st and 14th Amendments.

Storage designs for large-scale video surveillance systems
Comparing traditional SAN designs vs. today's clustered storage solutions
Video data presents quite a challenge to this traditional storage design. The funnel design, which is rarely overwhelmed for business data, is poorly suited for the 100 percent write and sequential nature of video data and introduces risks for some of the data to be lost. Traditional designs tend to need either next generation networks such as 10 Gigabit Ethernet or proprietary, expensive storage networks such as Fibre Channel in order to meet the bandwidth requirements of large-scale video installations. Similarly, the master controller architecture is problematic for field maintenance since capacity, bandwidth, and performance changes are difficult, if not impossible, to dynamically upgrade in the field.
Clustered storage is optimized for video
Newer clustered storage architectures aggregate a set of distributed RAID controllers to provide large-capacity storage. While providing the same data protection as traditional designs, the clustered systems introduce a number of innovations that are particularly useful for video. Data is spread automatically across the cluster, performance is allocated dynamically without user intervention and the cluster manages failure conditions for drives, network connections, and complete controllers. In storage terms, these features are termed dynamic provisioning, automatic load balancing, and multi-pathing support. In the best cluster implementations, the bandwidth of all the clustered RAID controllers is aggregated together and available to all the incoming video data, thereby removing the traditional funnel limitation using cost-effective Gigabit Ethenet technology available today.
For video, this is the optimal architecture for providing the high-bandwidth that is essential for the always-writing, sequential nature of video data traffic. And because clustering provides high-bandwidth by aggregating many network links, the architecture can deploy off-the-shelf, Gigabit Ethernet switches and cables for low installation and support costs. Dynamic field upgrades are easily maintained by adding additional clustered components. A side benefit of the architecture is that automated system rebuilds, such as in the case of a hard disk replacement, are accelerated over traditional designs, because all system components contribute to a massively parallel recovery.
Total Cost of Ownership considerations for large-scale video deployments
For someone who is not a storage expert, there are management and support considerations between traditional and clustered storage systems that should also be thought through before deciding on a video storage system.
First and foremost, traditional large-scale storage systems were designed for specially-trained, dedicated storage administrators in Fortune 100 companies. Configuring these systems requires extensive upfront planning and training, often at the user's expense. Because of the fixed nature of the underlying RAID controller design, users generally purchase the maximum configuration upfront since early configuration decisions cannot be easily changed in the field. Like the most sophisticated scientific calculators, these traditional systems have a lot of specialized commands to learn. In most cases, field support is best left to the manufacturer and annual maintenance fees can be quite high.
In contrast, a storage cluster manages sophisticated tasks without user intervention and requires only a high-level understanding of capacity requirements. The expectation is that existing staff with basic PC server skills will manage the system on a daily basis and that any required field upgrades or replacements could be handled by on-site staff. The same customer or integrator that handles gigabytes of data today can effectively manage hundreds of terabytes with these new systems.
What to look for when evaluating clustered storage for video surveillance
Once you have made the decision to look at clustered storage systems, it is useful to understand differences in the available choices. Here is a quick guide on key features to look for when evaluating clustered storage systems for large-scale video surveillance installations.
* Complete Node Protection for High Availability - A clustered storage system should eliminate all single points of failure including the failure of an entire distributed controller node.
* Distributed RAID for Capacity Efficiency - A clustered storage system that uses distributed RAID will protect distributed controller nodes and provide up to double the usable capacity of a clustered system that copies (or mirrors) data between nodes.

BOCA RATON — The Boca breezes weren't carrying any FAU passes Tuesday, as Carl Pelini opted to give the 1-4 Owls the beginning of the week off before starting preparations for the team's game against Louisiana-Monroe next Saturday.
The Warhawks have been as big a story as anyone in the college football in 2012. Entering the season, the pundits predicted ULM would finish with FAU at the bottom of the Sun Belt. After a win against then-No. 8 Arkansas dispelled that notion, and down-to-the-wire games with Auburn and Baylor made it clear the Warhawks are likely the team to beat in the Sun Belt.

Normally, it would be cause for celebration. The Oilers are 8th in the NHL in goals scored. That means they should be within striking distance of a playoff spot, right? Not so fast. Even though the Oilers have over 80 goals, they are so transparent on defense that they have let in the most goals against in the league, with well over a hundred.
In the first game back after the latest road trip, the Oilers laid yet another goose egg, allowing the Phoenix Coyotes to embarrass them with one of their worst efforts of the year, losing 6-2. Further adding to the frustration is the habit the Oilers have losing the first game of a home stand, something they do almost every time they return from a road trip, short or long. Regardless, it was a blown opportunity to move closer to 8th place in the first phase of a five game stretch at Rexall Place.
Those that caught Dallas Eakins post-game comments after the Coyotes game heard him talk about the fact his players don't call one another out on the ice.The next game they played a superior team in Patrick Roy's upstart Colorado Avalanche, and eviscerated the visitors, pouring on the offense for an 8-2 shellacking that was mostly defensively sound. their focus.
It's as simple as it sounds. Let's say Nail Yakupov (who has gone cold once again–not one, ONE, five on five goal as of yet) is streaking up the wing when Gagner yells "YAK!" Just the simple mention of his name, snaps the player into focus. Eakins said that he didn't see that happen as a habit, and is trying to instill that in his players.
Sure enough, in the beatdown of the Avalanche, an astute observer would've seen and heard the players doing just what Coach Eakins asked of them. The result? Eight goals. Obviously, other elements of team play helped craft the dominating win, but can the boys sustain it? Prior to the offensive outburst, Eakins had Anton Belov sent to Oklahoma City, and Jeff Petry stapled to the bench. In their place, Philip Larsen and Martin Marincin (in his first NHL game) were recalled. So as to not start a revolution with his players, he brought the exiled players back into the line up for the game Saturday December 7th against the Calgary Flames. The Oilers scored a massive amount again–ONCE.
Clearly, the Oilers are in need of a skilled, forceful defenceman. Of course, Edmonton's need for a d-man is well known and has been a need for some time. But it is interesting that when Eakins recalls players, they tend to contribute to a win. Often, fans clamor for more time for the youngsters. Philip Larsen and Taylor Fedun, especially, have made an impact on the score sheet.
Eakins knows they need more time to refine their game. It's got to be maddening, though, when your veteran defenders are sometimes worse than those who have been toiling in the minors. They are getting paid millions to do their job, and so Eakins has an obligation to play them. However, I think the rookie coach has made it abundantly clear that players with bloated contracts will be asked to step aside if their play deteriorates.
Over the next few weeks, leading up to the Olympic break, the Oilers will need to assess their blue line. Bryzgalov, Dubnyk and Labarbera should be able to shoulder the load in net. But, they need to nail down their defense. It's too much to ask to expect our young core to carry the team. The team is scoring, and you can't ask for much more. You can, however, ask a LOT more of the defense. They need to stonewall our opponents. Breakouts are happening far too often, and the goalies can only do so much.
Long and short of it, the Oilers either need a more complete effort from their current defensemen, or they rebuild the blue line by trade and free agency this year. No one is prying Weber away easily, but there are tenacious d-men across the league who can be had by a savvy GM. Craig Mactavish was on the ball trading Pajaarvi for the explosive David Perron, perhaps he can perform another feat such as that. By the way, Tom Gilbert is having a great year in Florida.

Nearly 50 years ago, President John F. Kennedy stood in front of the old Hotel Texas in Fort Worth, talking to thousands of people who had waited for hours through rain and chilly temperatures just for a chance to see him.There are no faint hearts in Fort Worth, he told the crowd, before he was shot and killed later that day while riding in a motorcade in Dallas.That day Nov. 22, 1963 remains forever etched in the history books. And Fort Worth forever holds a footnote for being the city where President Kennedy spent his last night alive and delivered his last public speech.Journalists who covered the story, and local residents who heard the historic last speech, plan to share their stories during an upcoming Fort Worth Remembers JFK program at TCU.We want to preserve some history, said John Lumpkin, director of the Schieffer School of Journalism at TCU. Journalists need to tell their stories again so there can be some record on this important date of what their memories are and how theyve been affected through the years by Nov. 22 and the other events surrounding that.The Schieffer School of Journalism and the Star-Telegram are partners in producing the program. Organizers will provide free tickets to the event that starts at 6:30 p.m. Sept. 11 in TCUs Ed Landreth Auditorium, 2800 S. University Drive.Tickets for the event may be reserved at schiefferschool.tcu.edu starting Aug. 17.The Star-Telegram is the historical record of our community. When big events happen, people turn to the paper, said Jim Witt, executive editor of the Star-Telegram. We're honored to play a part in this program that will examine these events that happened 50 years ago.CBS Bob Schieffer, a former Star-Telegram reporter, will moderate the event and share his own memories of covering the story as well.Others participating will include historian Hugh Aynesworth, former Star-Telegram reporter Mike Cochran, former KLIF radio anchor Gary DeLaune, former KRLD radio announcer Bob Huffaker and actor Bill Paxton, who lived in Fort Worth at the time and was in the crowd witnessing the speech.Schieffer has talked about how he was the night police reporter for the Star-Telegram at the time of the shooting. In the newsroom, he was trying to help answer phones that were ringing off the hook when a call came in from a woman asking for a ride to Dallas.I said, Lady, you know, the president has just been shot, and besides, we're not a taxi service, Schieffer has recalled. She said, Yes, I heard it on the radio. She said, I think the person theyve arrested is my son. And it was Lee Harvey Oswalds mother.Schieffer asked the woman for her address so he and another reporter could give her a ride to Dallas.Cochran, who was 25 at the time, covered the presidential assassination as a correspondent for The Associated Press. His job the night before was to meet the president and his staff to answer questions they might have about Fort Worth. And he was to call the AP the next morning, when Kennedys plane left the ground for Dallas.I was back in the office when I heard the president was shot, and I immediately headed for Dallas, Cochran has said. It was an experience that was almost indescribable.Last year, officials in Fort Worth unveiled a Kennedy tribute an 8-foot sculpture, photographs and a water wall. The JFK tribute is downtown, in the area where Kennedy last spoke to local residents, across from the old Hotel Texas, which is now the site of the Hilton Fort Worth hotel.

XOCO Restaurant Review: Rick Bayless' young disciples-in-training --- you'll see them while waiting in (very) long lines --- present tortas, juicy with slow-braised meat, from the wood-burning oven and bustle to plate just-fried churros at this littlest --- not to mention, LEED-certified --- sister to adjacent Topolobampo and Frontera Grill. As for that wait, it's torture, if only because everything smells and, in the end, tastes so good. The focus is on spicy, smoky, Mexican street food. Our recommendations include the Cubana (smoked pork loin and bacon plied with black beans, avocado, jack cheese, Morita chiles, chipotle mustard and cilantro crema), and cochinita pibil, slow-cooked, achiote-swathed suckling pig with black beans, pickled jalapeños and a side of so-fiery habanero sauce. Chips, salsa and guac, which are additional, are requisite. In the afternoon, restorative caldos (soups) expand the repertoire. House-made, seasonal ice creams are a worthy indulgence, especially when Concord grape --- from Bayless' garden, natch --- is available. An array of fruity aguas frescas, roasted-on-site cocoa for hot chocolate, and cost-conscious (but craft) wines, beers and tequilas tie the package together. Carryout is not offered from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.; instead, food is brought to your cramped table in the narrow, brightly colored space.

August 13th, 2012 | Afghanistan Awards Behind the Cover Ganjgal Medal of Honor | Posted by Dan Lamothe
Last week, I reported for Marine Corps Times that Medal of Honor recipient Dakota Meyer acknowledges in his new book that he attempted to kill himself in 2010, one year after surviving the battle that led to him receiving the nation's top valor award.
The story generated a wide range of reaction from readers. Some blasted me for writing a story specifically about Meyer's struggles, even though he chose to speak about it freely in an interview and disclosed the suicide attempt in his forthcoming book, "Into the Fire: A Firsthand Account of the Most Extraordinary Battle in the Afghan War." Others praised the story and Meyer's willingness to share his struggles, saying it may help other people to open up about coping with combat stress.
Today, Marine Corps Times and Army Times alike take it a step farther. In both papers, we outline a variety of details in "Into the Fire" and what it covers. Meyer pulls few punches in the book, especially when outlining what it was like being on a battlefield under fire for hours while officers in a nearby tactical operations center repeatedly denied fire support.
With the assistance of his co-writer, author Bing West, he also lays out how the Army botched a Medal of Honor case for Will Swenson, a former Army captain who fought alongside him in the battle.
In Marine Corps Times, Meyer also discusses what it's like living with the Medal of Honor. It's a complicated world, he says, in which many organizations request his time and celebrity and he must deal with "antagonists" who question whether his actions in the Sept. 8, 2009, battle in Ganjgal, Afghanistan, have been portrayed accurately.
The book hits shelves on Sept. 25. In coming weeks, it seems likely that you'll hear plenty about it on national television and other media outlets.
Here's a video excerpt from our interview last week:
Tags: Bing West, Cpl. Dakota Meyer, Dakota Meyer, Into the Fire, Sgt. Dakota Meyer, William Swenson
The US Army has NOTHING to do with the Army Times, same with all the other Times Papers. Just saying.
Survivors guilt.
I hope he can find peace.
To Sgt D.
study the battle. the Army Times won't be as rough on the Army as they should. trust me on this. i'm sure you've seen privates court martialed for lesser offenses than what the officer at the command post allowed to happen on that day.
The Battle of Ganjgal has allot of secrets and cover ups, why is there still NO JUSTICE, for Dakota, Cpt Will Swensen, Ken Westbrook, Aaron Kenefick, James Layton, Mike Johnson, Edwin Johnson, and others on the ETT 2-8 Team along with many Army brothers that wanted to aide in the recovery of the fallen heroes…These Army men were told by the MAJOR in charge that day the same Major who denied fire support and air support, the same Major that is NOW A LT COL, and is the only person who escaped any reprecussions….NO REPRIMANDS, in fact he received the Meritorious Medal Award!!!!!!!!!!!!! As a family memeber of one of the fallen Marines, we are DEMANDING JUSTICE AND THIS STORY IS ONLY THE BEGINNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im very proud of Dakota Meyers and for what he did and sacrificed . He was sent to fight a political war were you cant do what it takes to win the war without pissing off someone in Washington .My son and him are from same town just a small town and Im so proud they both came home and I Pray to god for the ones that never made it that they are in heaven in a new body and will never fell the pain and suffering they had to go thru and for the ones that put down this hero" Shame On You" it is soldiers like him and the ones we lost that fights for our freedom so we can post things and do the free things we do
I cannot wait for this book to come out… I know his book will show just how major an effect PTSD has on our military!
This is one young Marine and patriot I would wish he could come to our small project in the capitol of Pennsylvania and speak to my small class (6) of teens and young adults whom have been sent to me to help them change their lives. Ther are all on probation for some offense, including repeat DUI.. because they feel lost and like their life is all screwed up. One of my student is a former 8 year Marine with a drinking problem… often leading to desire to die… Dakota could help this one guy by just coming and talking with us in private. This isn't about publicity or anything else.. this is a chance for him to do something for these six guys that he tried so hard but was unable to do for his buddies!!
