It's Adopt-a-Shelter Dog Month and we'll be introducing you to extraordinary canines who need homes throughout October. Today, meet Rascal and Jersey, two pups who prove that two is definitely better than one.
The Australian shepherd mixes were surrendered together to the Wisconsin Humane Society in Milwaukee because their former owner couldn't find a place that would allow them both. The shelter can't bear to split these two, who are the best of friends, so they are hoping to place them in a loving home where they can spend forever together.
"Both adore attention and their personalities perfectly complement one another," says Angela Speed, vice president of communications for the shelter. "Rascal is adventurous and outgoing, while Jersey is sweet, submissive and exceedingly affectionate. When offered treats, Rascal executes his tricks with precision and focus, while Jersey drops to the ground and attempts to become the cutest sweetheart she can imagine – and she always succeeds!"

But that is what Greg Zubiak came across on Friday while hunting moose in the woods.
Zubiak told the CBC he found the animals huddled together in the cold weather with no help in sight. The hunter quickly stripped off his sweaters and bundled up the puppies before putting them in his truck and driving to Battleford's Humane Society.

The O'Jays Perform At The Lehman Center For The Performing Arts 1/14
Lehman Center for the Performing Arts celebrates its 31st season with the return of THE O'JAYS, on Saturday, January 14, 2012 at 8pm. Still going strong, the O'Jays epitomized the Philly sound with their smooth, rich harmonies, elaborate arrangements, and a touch of contemporary funk. With 24 Top Ten hits, including "Love Train," "Backstabbers," "Use Ta Be My Girl" and "For the Love of Money," they have earned ten gold albums, with nine going platinum; ten #1 hits; and induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005.
Lehman Center for the Performing Arts is on the campus of Lehman College/CUNY at 250 Bedford Park Boulevard West, Bronx, NY 10468.
Tickets for THE O'JAYS on Saturday, January 14, 2012 at 8pm are $65, $60, and $55 and can be purchased by calling the Lehman Center box office at 718.960.8833 (Monday through Friday, 10am–5pm and beginning at 12 noon on the day of the concert), or through 24-hour online access at www.LehmanCenter.org. Lehman Center is accessible by #4 or D train to Bedford Park Blvd. and is off the Saw Mill River Parkway and the Major Deegan Expressway. Low-cost on-site parking available for $5.
The O'Jays began in 1958 in Canton, OH, when five high school classmates, Eddie Levert, Walter Williams, William Powell, Bill Isles, and Bobby Massey, started a singing group after seeing Frankie Lymon and the Teenagers. A regionally popular group in Cleveland (and named after local deejay Eddie O'Jay, who gave them airplay and career advice), the group was together for a decade before getting a major break by teaming with young songwriters/producers Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff. A trio, after Isles and Massey quit, the group's first album on Gamble & Huff's Philadelphia International Records, 1972's Backstabbers, became a landmark of Philly soul and made them stars. The title song made Top Five on the pop charts, and "Love Train" went all the way to #1, with both singles topping the R&B charts. It was the beginning of a remarkable union that produced nearly 30 chart singles during the '70s, plus a series of best-selling albums and numerous #1 R&B hits. The O'Jays followed their breakthrough with another classic album, 1973's Ship Ahoy, featuring one of their signature songs (and theme song of the NBC hit "The Apprentice"), the #1 R&B hit "For the Love of Money." 1975's Survival was another smash, spinning off the hit "Let Me Make Love to You" and the R&B #1 "Give the People What They Want." For Family Reunion, the group incorporated the emerging disco sound with their own on their third Top Five pop charts hit, "I Love Music, Pt. 1."

I've used this mascara for years and it's my all time everyday favorite. It dries quickly without clumps and doesn't ever flake. It's waterproof and even sweatproof, but comes off easily with my regular cleanser. Best of all it's often on sale so I can stock up for very little money!
More reviews by andipromiseyouuu
formula is amazing! it's wash-off waterproof so when you go swimming or are working out, it stays put. It comes off easily in the shower or with makeup remover.
brush is a traditional mascara wand, it adds a little bit of length, but nothing special.
i would reccomend using this with a lash comb.
this mascara is ok. it is waterproof and doesn't flake. i like that i can wash it off with no problems. i don't like that it doesn't give any volume or length to my lashes...just color. it's a nice mascara for those days that i want to do a quick swipe and leave the house.
I have been using Avon's wash-off waterproof mascara in black for several years now. I've tried other brands including department store and always come back to Avon. It goes on silky smooth and is buildable. The best part is after the application - no smears, flakes or smudges. I've cried and it did not run and I've been in hot, humid weather and it stayed on, even swam with it on. Easily to take off as I just use mineral oil and it comes right off onto a facial tissue. Other mascaras flaked off and took several attempts to remove the waterproof formula. Avon has a terrific product with this one and it is often on sale.
YES this mascara is great on you lashes and bank account! my favorite from the avon mascara products, i have tried many. . . many . . .way too many mascaras, and this is the one i always fall back to; it does not flake, the color is good, lashes are separated, and it adds length. if you want a natural look for you lashes( like me, i can't stand it when someone with pretty eyes overloads on mascara)this mascara is the way to go. the formula is thinner which a lot of peeps seem to not care for, but hello thats why it goes on without clumps and is super smooth. leaves lashes feeling natural which i love. i would know my mom sells avon and i have tried every mascara that they have marketed
I gave this mascara a try due to the good reviews below. Luckily avon was having a sale and bought 3 for $1.99 each. I was really excited when i finally received my order and tried on immediately upon arrival. I have straight asian lashes and always curl first and then apply mascara. To my great disappointment, this mascara straightened my curled lashes almost immediately! Darn. But I kinda liked this mascara anyways. The formula is quite thin so it NEVER clumps. Gives a more natural look with pretty good lengthening but not much in the volume dept. It doesn't smudge at all or flake on me. I love that it really does just wash off with soap and water easily. It's a good everyday no nonsense mascara. But I don't think i will repurchase again because it can't keep a curl.

Love this mascara! It applies easily and enhances my sparse lashes while still looking natural. I have had no trouble with flaking, bit I did discover by accident that rewetting drops for contacts will remove it, so contacts wearers will want to be careful. I'm disappointed that Avon discontinued the navy color!
The mascara is ok. It is thin and liquidy, if you need volume, this needs several coats to do it. It doesn't clump. I think it might be better at length than thickness, simply by coating the ends of the lashes making them visible again.
It does flake a bit at the end of the day and I found my eyes a bit itchy and red rimmed (mine do that a lot --I have allergic sensitive lids -- usually waterproof works better) but as promised it comes off easily. That is it's best feature. That and the price.
I did have smudging on my brow bone (always happens)
and noticeable smudging UNDER my lower lash line (I only apply to uppers!) as a sort of "fall out".
The lower fallout of mascara flakes and smudges never happens with good waterproof mascara on me, and almost always with the normal non w/p mascaras.
Fallout, flaking and smudging happened almost right away, I think I got about 2 hours before it started looking bad.
OK but I won't buy again. I doubt I will even use it up. Back to my Cover Girl w/p Lash Blast and loads of Neutrogena waterproof eye m/u remover. Oh well.
This is now my HG mascara. I got this on sale for $1.99 on avon.com and after reading the good reviews here, I knew it would be great. It is perfect! Doesn't clump or smudge, goes on perfectly, make lashes look fully and longer. I just re-ordered it again on sale for a whopping $1.99. A must try! Don't waste your money on expensive mascara again.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
My mom got me this mascara and I really love it. Gives me great length (albeit not the best volume) and makes my lashes stand out. Washes off super easy in the evening, no flaking and its cheap!!

JERRY HODGES RETIRESMonday, November 3rd, 2014
Jerry's retirement from Project GRAD became effective on Friday, October 31, 2014. Jerry Hodges has been the Project GRAD since 2001 when it initially began. There is so much to be said for all that he has done as Executive Director of Project GRAD Knoxville.
We are going to miss Jerry terribly but we are so excited for what his next season where he will have all of his time with his handsome grandson and his family.
Congratulations Jerry! Enjoy your retirement……
Project GRAD Board Names Knox County Alum as New ChiefMonday, August 11th, 2014
The Project GRAD Knoxville Board has voted to promote Vrondelia (Ronni) Chandler as the designee to secede retiring executive director Jerry Hodges effective November 1. Chandler joined GRAD at its inception in 2001 after more than 20 years on staff at Pellissippi State Community College and has served GRAD as program director and associate executive director. She is a native of Knoxville and a graduate of Austin East High School, Pellissippi State and Tusculum College. GRAD is an acronym that means "Graduation Really Achieves Dreams." The organization works to increase the number of innercity students graduating from both high school and higher education.
2014 Annual Scholars Celebration Dinner HeldThursday, July 10th, 2014
The 2014 Annual Scholars Celebration Dinner was another success.
We were honored to have Tearsa Smith and Bo Williams (WATE TV anchors) to emcee the program this and they were dynamic as they kept the crowd entertained and energized.
A number is scholars who have successfully graduated from college participated in the program this year. It was great to have these scholars return to Project GRAD and give back by serving on the program in some capacity or by imparting wisdom by sharing their testimony with them. Shawn Hatmaker (Class of 2007 GRAD Scholar, Austin East Magnet High School) shared wise advice with the graduating seniors as he talked about the difference the Project GRAD continues to make in his life even following graduation from college. Shawn graduated from Tennessee State University in 2011 with a degree in Political Science and a focus on international relations and terrorist studies. He is presently working for Representative Timothy Hill as an Executive Assistant and is working to be certified in ministry as a Pastor. Other scholars on program were Jonathan Blair (Class of 2008 Fulton High School) and Christie Banks (Class of 2007, Fulton High School).
There's always suspense surrounding the person selected to receive the "Caught Doing Right For Kids" Award each year. The award recipient this year was equally surprised and very deserving of the honor. Rosalyn Tillman was the award winner this year and she was caught completely by surprised but was also very happy to receive the award that recognized her for service to kids and for always being caught doing what's right for kids. Dean Tillman (as she is affectionately known) has been the Dean/Principal of the Summer Institute at Pellissippi State since it began and is responsible for the success of the program.
Cody and Kensey Zimmerman closed the program with a beautiful musical selection. Kensey is a Class of 2007 GRAD scholar from Fulton High School. She graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Bachelor's Degree in Communication Studies in 2011 from the University of Tennessee. In 2013 she graduated with a Master's in Communication and Information with a concentration in Communication Studies from the University of Tennessee also.
There were 140 Scholars in this graduating class that met all qualifications of the GRAD scholarship and will be attending colleges/universities in several states this fall. Congratulations Class of 2014 Scholarship Recipients.

How can I avoid buying Koch gasoline?
If you live in an area where a Koch refinery is located, you probably can't, unless you buy an electric vehicle.
Minnesota Koch gas & oil:
"If you buy from Holiday or Kwiktrip you are very likely to be getting Koch gas"
Much of the
Kochs' (David and Charles) comes from industrial operations:
In the US, it has been estimated that the top one per cent own a third of total wealth, while the top five per cent own 59 per cent.
THE world's richest one per cent is actually richer than previously thought, according to a new study by the European Central Bank. (source)
Do you think the Kochs really give a rat's ass about
the working class? Other than using them to promote
their agenda (think "teabaggers")?
Chuckie Koch, or one of his minions, wrote an editorial which appeared at USA Today. In it, Chuckie spells out his version of what's wrong with America and the economy. You know the schtick: We need less (or no) government, we need less regulation, and if you're out of work, "Go find a job".
It demonstrates how out of touch with, and how ignorant he is, of the real problems facing Americans.
See for yourself. And be sure to visit some of the links at the bottom of the page (which is something Chuckie should have done before writing that tripe).

The Koch Brothers: The Extremist Roots Run Deep
Some women and men spend their lives rebelling against their father or mother, but others follow in their footsteps or yearn for their approval. Some become friends.
A few spend millions to make their parents' vision a reality.

The Koch political empire continues to metastasize into what a Washington Post investigative article on January 5 calls "a far-reaching operation of unrivaled complexity, built around a maze of groups that cloaks its donors, according to an analysis of new tax returns and other documents. (Climate Science Watch)
Koch-backed political coalition, designed to shield donors, raised $400 million in 2012.
(Washington Post)
As it turns out, Koch Industries' corporate PAC is a big supporter of many of the 20 "dissident" Republican House members who have been identified as the biggest thorns in the side of the Republican leadership on the shutdown and the debt ceiling.
In fact, KochPAC and the conservative activist group Citizens United both stand out for their support of members of this group.
Koch-funded and Koch-created AFP (Americans For Plutocrats) tells Republicans not to pass clean federal debt increase.
Corporations and the Plutocrats like the Kochs
say their money is simply "free speech".
We all know that's bullshit.

From Joel:
Great site! Thank god for the Koch brothers in an ocean of suffocating liberal cunts! We';ll use the list to make sure we support them by buying their products
My reply:
Joel, it appears to me, is from the right-wing bubble. He, too, demonstrates the effect of prolonged exposure to political propaganda. He is also apparently unconcerned about oligarchy. But it is still a somewhat-free country and Joel is entitled to his opinion. That may change if the oligarchs assume full control. Freedom is Slavery,
Ignorance is Strength and all that.
From Bob:
Dear Sen. Hagan I applaud you in your effort to get rid of the Koch brothers and the thousands of jobs that they brought to North Carolina millions that they pay in taxes and millions that they pay in payroll. Yes I would like to see North Carolina a wilderness where we would be free to live as we please . Without the Koch brothers feeding tax money into the welfare system the poor would have to leave. We will show them Kochs we can get along just fine without their silly work ethic and chance taking. I sure you can get DC to take care of us. God bless Miss Kay she will save us.
My reply:
Hi, Bob,
Thank you for visiting the website BoycottKochBrothers.com, and thank you for your comments.
Could you please elaborate on a few of the points you offer?
- How has Sen. Hagan tried to get rid of the Koch brothers and the thousands of jobs they brought to North Carolina?
- How much do the Koch brothers pay in taxes to North Carolina?
- Didn't North Carolina's Republican-led legislature enact tax breaks for people like the Kochs?
- Could you please elaborate on what you consider to be "the welfare system" (what does it include)?
- Regarding "work ethic": Are you aware the Kochs inherited their wealth? They didn't "work" for it. In fact, they stole part of it.
- Actually, it appears to me that Art Pope is the "Koch brother" who has been most actively at work in North Carolina promoting a right-wing agenda. (Pope sat on the board of Americans For Prosperity until he was appointed budget director of NC by Governor McCrory.)

The entire exchange with Bob can be viewed here.
From Cliff.
This web site is obviously politically motivated. The country is being destroyed by this kind of propaganda, and I urge you to count the cost of this kind of political agenda. We used to engage one another with an exchange of ideas, but now we destroy our political opponents. We are in the beginning of the end as a result.
Well, Cliff, if a desire to expose those who wish to buy the government is "politically motivated", then I plead guilty.
The Kochs have purposely undertaken concerted efforts to try to keep their political activities, propaganda, and influence secret. In a democratic society, we should have the right to know who's buying politicians, paying tens of millions to lobbyists and trying to dismantle government because they wish to continue their environmental assaults on the planet.
If you wish to see REAL political machinery in action, go visit the websites of any of the Koch-funded groups:http://www.boycottkochbrothers.com/kochgroups.shtml
I'd suggest you start at the website of Americans For Prosperity (which should be called Americans For Plutocrats http://www.americansforplutocrats.org )
I dont' know that we really ever "engaged each other".
The League of Women Voters used to sponsor the Presidential Debates. They abandoned it in 1988 because they "refused to perpetuate fraud".
Then there are the political manipulators and the rich -- like the Kochs (vis-a-vis their "Tea Party") -- whose objective is to invoke hate and promote division. The Democratic Party and the Republican Party are equally guilty.
What this country needs, Cliff, is a limit on campaign spending. And it needs viable third parties. We are no longer a democracy, for all intents and purposes. We live in (pick your choice) a corporatocracy and/or an oligarchy.
From the National Center for Public Policy Research:
My reply:
I advised them their group was listed on a page (near the bottom of the page) with the heading "(Not necessarily funded by the Kochs)" and that I have updated the page to include a link to an article about their group. Further, I noted their group is reportedly funded by Donors Trust, which is in part funded by the Kochs, meaning some of the money they receive may include Kochbucks.
From Bob:
Your flame war against the Koch brothers is out of whack. Of the top 10 political contributors over the last 25 years
7 of them gave predominantly to Democrat causes. There are at least 15 Unions that contribute more than the Kochs (all to the Dems). The #1 biggest contributor is an organization called ActBlue with 99% of their $114 million in donations going to Dems. The Koch brothers are 58 on this list. Here's a link to the list https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/list.php
My reply:
Unlike many, Bob did include a link to the OpenSecrets article.
Unfortunately, he apparently didn't read it. It plainly states that dark money groups such as the kochs' Americans For Prosperity weren't included. And, of course, the Kochs fund numerous other groups with their "dark money" contributions.
From B:
Hey, I notice there's no information about which oil companies the koch industry owned. When I"m buying gas, I want to know which companies I should boycott.
My reply:
Koch refined products are generally sold through wholesalers. In the case of gasoline, the Kochs may sell to many wholesalers who, in turn, sell to the gas stations. In areas where Koch refineries are located, their refined products may end up and many or most places. Here's an example from Minnesota. If you live in an area where a Koch refinery is located, the best way to avoid enriching the Kochs is to buy an electric vehicle.
From J:
The image on your site (now removed - but it was from this photo) is shameful. Making fun of the developmentally disabled (blog comment about the men in the picturel) is probably not the best way to market yourselves to those most likely to boycott the Kochs.
The image is one which has commonly been used throughout the web as an illustration of people being derided (e.g., teabaggers). My use of it was not intended to denigrate anyone, especially the two men in the picture (Dresie and Cassie). However, I have changed the graphic to include an image purchased from a stock photo supplier. . And doing a bit of background research is always a good idea. But I find your concern and comment most worthwhile for its thought-provoking aspect. What you indicated is that those most likely to boycott the Kochs possess human compassion, empathy, and concern for those who may be disadvantaged. In my own opinion, I doubt those qualities rank high for the Kochs or their supporters.
Related: Here's another photo of Dresie and Casie. (source)

From DR:
My reply to DR:
The Kochs have as much free speech available to them as you or me. But they want more. In fact, they want to reshape the United States into their distoted view of a plutocrats' Utopia. And they're trying to do it by using their vast wealth to disseminate falsehoods, distortions, and promote divisiveness and its resultant hate. Don't we aleady have an overabundance of ignorance and hate in this country?.
The Kochs' politician friends have already helped them beat charges of massive theft, thanks to Republican senators coming to their rescue.
Tell me YOU would get that same form of justice if you stole a loaf of bread. Can you naively believe they won't expect that same sort of quid pro quo from the politicians they are now funding?
As for rich Democrats, well, that's not news. Politicians routinely drive to D.C. the first time in a 12-year-old beat-up pickup truck. 20 years later, they fly back home in a private jet. That's the way politics works: Payola. And if you think Democrats are "in control", you are not paying attention. (Government shutdown, Proration, cuts to food stamps, not renewing extended unemployment benefits, state Republican politicians refusing to expand Medicaid, refusal to approve Presidential appointments, filibusters, Obama extending some tax cuts for the rich, etc.) As for me, I consider both major political parties corrupt and believe we need viable third parties.
And, DR, the Kochs are a major part of the problem. There needs to be some sunlight shone on them, because people need to know what they (and their fellow plutocrat chums) are doing. We do not need any more of an oligarchy than already exists.
From GR:
this is a most informative web site, and i will find it useful in my small effort to effectively boycott all things to do with Koch brothers profit. I will appreciate all information you can provide through this web site. thank you so much.

From Caroline:
Please, please get the word out that the Koch Bros/Tea Party's agenda is becoming more suspect every day. To destroy our government's economy as well as the world's for you own personal gain, and eventualy causing deaths, is somehow illegal, it seems to me. Destroying the middle and ower classes could border on genocide, if you check the legal definitions of genocide. That is not stretching facts at all. They are dangerous!
From G:
The Koch brothers are a danger to our democracy... they think their money can buy this country & they are a pair of evil fascist oligarcs. They should be in jail for conspiring to destoy this country... like the movie "Citizen Kane", where people were viewed as "ants", I'm sure that's how the Koch brothers see the 99%. I'm sick of their "organized crime" & they are no better than the mob.
From W:
More Koch-funded groups:
MIT, Lincoln Center, Smithsonian, Sloan Kettering, Museum of Natural History
[Indeed, and we discuss that here]
Occasionally we receive an email from a bubble dweller. It's usually simply, "Thanks for letting me know what products to buy". Never any reason, or rationale. It's simply an effort to poke -- a common occurrance from right-wing borg.
If you're a bubble dweller,you really SHOULD spend some time at this site familiarizing yourself with the Kochs. They don't care about you. They won't buy you a new pickup truck (unless, perhaps, you run for office as a Republican), and they have nothing to offer this country. Try to get past your master/serf mentality.

Greenpeace Updated Report:
Fred Koch, father of Chuckie and Davey, was a founding member of the John Birch society, a group which is, in my opinion, a white supremacist hate group. Chuckie and Davey grew up listening to their father's Bircher philosophy and that no doubt had a great influence on them, as they, too, hate Democrats and liberals.

As much as I adore Missoni visually, the structure of about 99.9% of the pieces drive me crazy. I get that the high points in the Missoni collections have always been about the knits, textures, colors, etc., but after noticing the terrible structure of the garments, the high points have never really sold it to me.
This morning however, as I was clicking through the Missoni website in search of a new bikini (no one has to worry about the structure of a bikini...remember, structure when wearing a bikini is all you, not the fabric), I completely got over this cold shoulder towards Missoni and now want every piece of the Summer 2011 collection.
Yes, the draping is still a little awkward to me, but the vibrancy and bold emotion that have been woven into the patterns of these garments are INCREDIBLY empowering as to say, "I'm so IT, I don't even need to think about how I'm wearing this fabulous garment over my shoulder right now. Here, I'll even toss it around a little bit to prove how much I don't care, that's how much you love it on me."

Wages go up for process control engineers like me.
I'm a process control engineer. I picked this job specifically because the demand was booming and the technical jargon on the postings scares even the brightest engineers away. I have steady work and we never have enough engineers. I get calls every week about new jobs opportunities. The demand is high and the supply is low. I'm making 15k more than I was 6 years ago and I haven't changed companies or positions. I have offers to double my salary and the only reason that I haven't taken them is that I was waiting for my girl to graduate. All this because I once worked summer on a production line, but someone came in to automate the process and I wasn't hired back. So I took an internship as an automation engineer and never looked back. The market changes so you have to adapt.

Seafood Markets in St. Pete??
Can someone please recommend a good, fresh seafood market in St. Pete? Reasonable prices would be great, but I am more concerned about quality. Thanks in advance!
A while back my boss mentioned a place on 62nd Ave N - the details are a little fuzzy but I think it's between 9th and 16th Street, in that little plaza on your left if you're heading west. Near the Buddhist temple? I thought it was an odd location but he's extremely picky and said the fish there is really fresh and reasonably priced. Sorry I can't be more specific - today's not a good day to ask him anything non-work-related :-)
re: carissarene
Fresh Catch Seafood Market. 1900 62nd Ave N St Petersburg
Bama Seafood in St Pete. Every other Friday they have an awesome shrimp sale. Gulf fresh still kickin' shrimp! http://www.bamasea.com/About/location...
I have also bought nice fish there
re: rhnault
I saw this special mentioned on another thread a little more recent than this one. Is this deal still going? Bama doesn't have much info on their website. Do they have a retail market?
re: juli5122
Thanks. I may go by today
Go To Mid-Peninsula Seafood at 600 49th St. S. It is not only a seafood market but also a seafood restaurant. Very good.
Another good place is Trappman's on Gandy Blvd. east of the dog track.
Save-On Seafood in Gulfport is terrific--sketchy neighborhood, but it is where some of the best restaurants in Tampa get their fish. It's super fresh and the prices are terrific.
Mid-Peninsula Seafood is good for lower priced fish. Reef Seafood has the freshest fish in the area. the owner is not the friendliest but who cares if the fish is good. Located across the street from the Lobster Pot Restaurant. Behind the store is the wholesale fish operation so you know the fish is fresh. Prices are fair.
i would rec. trappmans seafood on gandy blvd. it is right next to the crab shack, which is a great seafood shack. trappmans has some of the freshest seafood around. they also carry spices , sauces, some steaks, wine, some cheese, batters, etc. etc. .....they are always very helpful and can answer any questions you may have about seafood and/or preparation of seafood...

I got started this morning in good time, abut 5:40, and it was the same temperature outside as inside, 78 degrees. When I stepped outside it was like walking into a hot shower. It's amazing how much the humidity affects your sense of temperature. Anyhow, I started out, and when I got to Nebraska and 16th, the raindrops started landing on my head. I popped out my old hearing aids and put them in an unused doggie bag, and turned around. I made a total of 1.1 miles in 20 minutes, and by the time I got home I could wring my shirt out before hanging it in the garage to dry. In about 30 minutes we got another 0.6 inches of rain, so I turned the irrigation system off again. The rain sensor is still working but I feel really confident if I know absolutely we aren't wasting water.
After I got cleaned up and fed, I took the Stratus down to McBee's and walked home, which added another mile plus to my day. It turns out that the freon was low by half a pound, and the compressor may be getting old. A new one would be $500 if it quits working, but that's still cheaper than buying a new car. I got an offer from GM today - they will add $1500 to the balance on my GM card, so I could get almost $4,000 cash back on a new car. I guess I should have kept using the card and built the balance up to $3500, which would make the total offer $5,000 off, but then I might actually have snapped and bought a new Malibu.
I made more copies of some of the pass-outs for my Safe Driving class tomorrow, made up the name cards, and called all 24 potential students. One time I had five walk-ins out in Oldsmar, but I've never had that happen here - in fact there would have been 26 but one couple cancelled. At least no one told me they weren't coming, so maybe everyone will show up tomorrow. As near as I can tell, I'm ready to go for the next two days.
While I was doing push-ups today, I looked down (back) at my feet, and there was pillow of fat hanging down from my belly. People ask me where the loose skin is, and I sort of blow them off, but I think I finally figured out where to look for it. If I'm standing up it's not really noticeable, but when I'm stretched out it must hang down two or three inches. I think that qualifies as being in really bad shape. The only consolation is that I am still going.
Today I cut the grass in 80 minutes. I keep getting better because I don't stop to dig up sand burrs, and today the temperature at 7:00 was only 76 degrees and the cloud cover prevented any sun. I still had to tie a bandanna around my forehead to keep the sweat out of my eyes, but I didn't have to stop for water. Then I spent 55 minutes "gardening" with the weed eater and digging up nasty weeds. There's a lot of bending over and scrambling involved with the weeds.
I was surprised at the number of calories Spark gives you for pushing a lawn mower. According to my pedometer I only walked a little more than three miles, but it counted a lot more than walking three miles. Of course, I use an electric mower, and pushing it through the grass (I mow it three inches high) and dragging 150 feet of extension cord behind you takes more effort than just walking on a smooth surface.
After I was done with the weedeater in the back yard I started on the front, and then an electric edger I had seen at a thrift store came to mind, so I just stopped. The St. Augustine is crawling over the sidewalks, driveway, and street and I find that it's a lot of trouble winding line back on the weedeater spool. The edger has a steel blade that should last forever. When I took the BW to look for silk blouses I wasn't interested because I didn't really want any more stuff around - the 8 by 10 shed is already full, as well as the garage, and starting to be the attic. At any rate, I stopped and had a shower and shaved, made breakfast, and read the sunday paper.
Then I thought about it for a while, and finally talked the BW into showing me where the thrift store is. She waited in the Stratus with the dogs, and I went looking. Instead of a lot of edgers (they had six or seven when I was there before) there were only two. One had a cracked body and no price, and the other was marked $30 instead of $15, which the good looking Craftsman had been. They had a "half price sale" sign up in front, so I decided it wouldn't hurt to ask, and I did buy the edger for $15. After I got home I looked it up on the internet, and the recommended retail price is supposed to be $169, but you can buy a reconditioned one from Black and Decker for $65. You can also buy a new one from Amazon.com for $70, plus shipping. So $15 isn't bad for a trial, and I can always give it to the Sherrif's Ranch if I hate it.
When I tried to use it, I had a real problem because the grass is so thick that the guide (which is supposed to ride along the cement and keep the cutting blade in place) hangs up. I was forced to raise the guide and use it in the chopping mode, as if you were preparing a seedbed. I did get a lot of extra grass off the cement, but worked up a sweat again and later found that I could open the side and sharpen the blades. There was an almost 90 degree angle to the "cutting" edge. You just slammed a 3/32 inch flat edge through the dirt. I think that might be the reason someone got rid of it. I used a file and sharpened both cutters, but haven't tried the sharpened blade. If I use it fairly often it might be easier to get through the grass in the future.
Black and Decker sells replacement blades, so maybe I'll buy a new one if I keep the thing.
I got up about 5:50 this morning, and did my first walk with a little head start. I took a little longer today because my right foot hurt and I thought I might have pounded the cement too hard yesterday. The sun was just coming up when I got home, and the dogs were perfectly happy to see it when it did show over the trees. It was still 76 degrees when we got home.
After breakfast and reading the paper and collecting three pairs of binoculars (but forgetting the camera) the BW was ready to go by 10:00, and we took the fast way to the Tampa Convention Center - across the Courtney-Campbell Causeway and up I275 to the Ashley exit, then down Tampa to the waterfront and straight into the parking garage. We jaywalked across Channelside Drive and so didn't have to walk around three sides of the Center to get there, and were able to see the Gloria, the first ship, just coming in sight at 11:00AM which was the start of the arrival celebration. There were sailors standing on all the cross pieces (yard-arms?) on the front two masts, and one at the top of each of the manned masts. They played stirring music, and it came all the way in and tied up along baywalk, right in front of the convention center. The first hawser was ashore at 11:50, so it took nearly an hour just to get there and touch the dock.
The second ship showed up (could be seen in the distance) at 12:00. It was the US ship, the Eagle, owned by the coast guard, and it just came in to the basin, let the tugs do a three point turn with it, and then left again. I think it was the one that will tie up beyond the Florida Aquarium and the American Victory. By 1:15 we both had had enough sitting on stone steps, and the BW was willing to head for home. Neither of us was willing to wait for the third ship to show. They weren't sailing, but using their auxiliary engines for propulsion, and tugs for maneuvering. They (all three) have steel hulls, radars, and a lot of modern conveniences in addition to sails.
We took a shortcut home, but I don't think it saved us much time. It was only 28 miles back, but I just went a couple of blocks north from the water, picked up route 60, and came across the bottom of Tampa to the causeway. There were lights all the way to the causeway, but we hit most of them green and we didn't have to drive through downtown Tampa that way. We were home a little after three because on the way out we walked the legal (long) way and passed a Starbucks where the BW wanted a caramel frappachino. She also wanted to rest in the air conditioning for a while, and it felt good to me too.
All in all, it was a good Saturday with no rain. But tomorrow I need to cut the grass again.
I managed to get my walks in this morning, go to Home Depot and stock up, and go on down to the Pier for lunch with Chuck McIntyre. We both had Cubans and two beers. When I came home, I managed to succeed in putting together all the plumbing mess to reconnect the toilet and bidet without a leak, and to fix everything in place. I did have to grind a flat on a 1/2 inch fender washer, which I used on top of the new plastic fixture to both replace the nylon washer I removed and hold everything together. The BW is very happy with the result, but I didn't try to install the second one in the other bathroom.
I did take most of the stuff I bought at Home Depot back, and got most of my money returned. They're super good about returns, but I rarely take anything back and always feel guilty when I do.
Then I bought some chicken breasts at Sweetbay and made Italian Country Chicken Soup for supper. I thought it was OK, but the BW didn't like the peas in her chicken soup. That's bad, because I have nearly a gallon of soup left. I guess I'll be eating it for a while.
Tomorrow is our big day for seeing the tall ships sail into the area behind the Convention Center in Tampa. I hope we manage to get there successfully. Since I don't care whether I see them or not, I'm not too stressed out. I'll just go with the flow.
PS. I was only up 2 1/2 pounds last night, still in leeway, and back to normal this morning. Then today I was within my calorie allowance for the day, but I'm not sure how healthy the Cuban was.
Last night was a great meeting - in the Dockside Bar and Grill. It's in the Lake Tarpon Resort facing US 19, and the water comes right up to the embankment for 19. The resort is actually built over the canal with pylons and big decorative footings coming up out of the water. There are a lot of boats moored along both sides of the canal, and you can actually rent a pontoon boat to go explore a large fresh-water lake. I didn't ask if you need to be a guest there in order to rent a boat.
We had a private room with one glass wall overlooking the water, and a door that seemed to be soundproof. At the end of the meeting (which lasted 2 1/2 hours) I walked out into the bar and was almost knocked down by the noise. I guess they worked on the soundproofing.
Unfortunately, they have good food there. I had a Ruben, and it wasn't like the Rubens at Grant's Brewpub. This was not your "healthy" Ruben - it was soaked in butter. I felt bad about using up two of their napkins wiping my hands, but they have to wash them anyhow and I suppose the grease will come out. To help them go down I had two Yuenlings, from the oldest continuously operating brewery in the US, which were also great, and I ate all the french fries, which were actually like English "chips" - thicker than you usually see. Then I came home, with my inhibitions relaxed, and had two ice cream cones, and a frozen apple fritter that I had bought for the BW on Sunday. She told me that she was saving it for Friday, but offered it. I took it.
Then I got up this morning, and I was four pounds heavier than I was Wednesday morning. I also get to weigh in this evening, and to make up for yesterday I had a big breakfast and bigger lunch. I guess I'm suffering from a death wish. I have two hours left before I have to go get weighed, and I'm chicken to get on the scales and see where I am now.

". . . by simply working on our breathing technique we can induce better health both physiologically and mentally." L Ereira
We all do it, all day, every day. Even while we sleep. In fact we never ever stop doing it. If we did we would die. But do we ever think about it? Do we realise just how much of an impact it has on our bodies, our minds and our overall health?
It is the simple act of respiration. That's right – breathing! Believe it or not, there are different ways to breathe, which have different effects on the body and our health. But let's just take a look at two. Nose breathing which induces relaxation, calm, and improves health, and the other mouth breathing, which most of us do by default, because of the lives we lead, which contributes to many health concerns like elevated blood pressure and an increase in resting heart rate.
I would like to share with you an extract from my latest book Sports Pattern Release™. In this extract I explain how breathing effects the human body. I will then off you a simple breathing technique to support better health.
"Breathing is something that is all too often overlooked but is of the utmost importance in correct biomechanical function. The human body will sacrifice everything to maintain respiratory function and this includes posture. Nasal breathing is the way we are pre-programmed to breathe and mouth breathing is triggered by stress. Interestingly, when posture is poor, it is easier to breathe through the mouth and harder to breathe nasally. The reverse is also true, illustrating the close relationship between breathing and posture. Additionally, mouth breathers often breathe much less deeply, only using the upper chest, whereas nose breathers tend to use the diaphragm making full use of the lungs, oxygenating the blood and brain. If the diaphragm becomes inhibited through poor posture, stress or bad habits, the accessory inhibitory muscles will overwork, becoming overactive, leading to trigger points and chronic tension.

- Offline and farming until 28 May -
