Excuse me, you dropped your purpose
Wouldn't it be great if it happened like that? If your "thing" – that thing you're looking for, to make you feel the way you want to feel, all day long – just fell out of your back pocket like a crumpled dollar bill? And someone could hand it to you?
That's how it worked for me. Or so I thought.
At age 21, life practically handed me a dream job in Hollywood, managing my favorite bands. As it turned out, what life really handed me was a one-way ticket to Doucheville: way too much access to parties, an insatiable ego, 5 different alarms just to get out of bed in the morning, and a monster cocaine habit.
And of course, I lost it all.
No, not the cocaine habit. (That came later, and not so easily.) But the job and the ego trip, buh-bye. Un- employed, lost, and afflicted with gout (yes, gout), I found myself living in an 8×8 pool house, praying for guidance, and strapping on a geriatric circulation boot. Sexy.
I don't want to spoil what happens next for me, but here's a preview of what might happen for you when you read it:
Thinking "If he can do it, I can do it."
Turning fear into fuel.
Tuning out the "I suck" thoughts and creating a new story, which you make true just by doing something new.
Creating space for the life you want to live and the feelings you want to feel. Even thought it might mean giving up the company paycheck and the health insurance. Or bringing home moo shu and lo mein instead of cooking family dinner. (No, you're not a bad parent.)
Changing patterns.
Taking little actions, making those a habit, and building them into something big… Instead of layering on more yoga and therapy and green juice and Om and affirmations and self-help and waiting for it all to take effect.
Finding your "thing."
It's not in your back pocket, but maybe it's in this book. Which is one step away from being in your hot little hands.

Back in July I realized after finishing my educational career that I missed writing. I began a blog to "release" those creative juices. The first blog was a bucket list in which I wrote the 10 things I would like to do if time and money was no issue. For a month I wrote pretty much everyday, but I found myself starting at #10 on that list, to make a career writing.
I don't know where it happened or when it happened, but I decided I was going to write a book. I quit blogging and for a month I did research on a book. I do know on the 3rd of October, 2011, I began writing my novel. I chuckle when I look at the original notes of my book and what actually ended up on paper. What is so funny, is the main character, John Fowler, was simply noted as hero. I had no idea who John was or what he was going to be about. It was literally on October 3rd, that John was created. I didn't know his convoluted back-story or that my novel would become a character driven novel. I didn't know about his murdered wife Sam, her killer, and a Virginian Senator that at times sounds like Foghorn Leghorn. I didn't know about any of these characters, but today I've got notes everywhere about them, and what they're going to do through my first four books.
I don't know how many times I almost threw in the towel, but each time I was about to, something was said from a friend, or someone at church, or just an innocent comment made by someone in passing that kept me going. Today I have finished a novel, and it's sitting in a publisher's hands.
I had a friend that asked me if it went no further have I acomplished something, and the answer is yes, I have. I was good with it. I was fine; win, lose or draw. Notice I'm using the word was. Something changed today. Today I was sitting in church and there was a guest speaker. Today the speaker said, "God knows your dreams, even the ones you dare not voice."
The dreams I dare not voice. So have I voiced my dreams? I don't know, I put it down on a bucket list, but it was something I said I would like to do if money was no option and time wasn't either.
So let me say it, loud and proud. I want to be a publisher author, and I want to make a living at it. Will I? Only God knows the answer to that question, but I can tell you, I'm going to do my best to make it happen. I may never be James Patterson, but by golly, James Patterson may never be David Carner.
So there it is. I don't know what's going to happen, but I do know I'm going to give this thing my all. If you'd like to help, it's real simple. When this book is published (we're being positive here) I ask you give it a shot and tell all your friends. Anything you can post or share online, in advance, I thank you.

It shouldn't be a surprise
You dream of a baby, you try for a baby, you get pregnant with a baby. Then you spend nine months reading and kegeling and buying teeny little clothes to prepare. There is even an ultrasound picture of the baby with cute little feet and hands to prove she is in there. Why, then, is it a surprise when you go into labor and it results in a child? Really!
Two years ago, I was just shocked to see Suzi for the first time. Although I knew I wasn't just getting fat, that there was a baby in there, it wasn't like I expected to see this little black-haired girl gazing up at me at the end of it all. Maybe it was because I had envisioned a blondie with blue eyes (like Jordan) and she wasn't one. Maybe it was because I really wasn't used to seeing newborn babies.
But last night Jordan and I were sitting at the movies together and my mind flashed involuntarily to the image of a fuzzy-headed black-haired baby. I thought, "wow--that could be Ivey!" I don't know what she'll look like. Even though she's been taking up residence in my belly for nine months and we've been closer than close, I don't know what to expect. I tried to explain this terrifying and exhilarating phenomenon to Jordan on the way home but he didn't get it.
Why is it so impossible to look down at my basketball belly and translate the feet and butt scraping by to a sweet tiny girl in a pink blanket that fits right in the crook of my arm?
I guess it's just too miraculous to imagine.

Jenny, I totallllyyyy relate. I still don't think it's really hit me that the end result of this is a baby. A living-breathing-human-honest-to-goodness-baby. It does seem funny that we've been feeling these little ones move for months now, and seen their shapes on the ultrasound, but it still doesn't feel REAL.
I don't think it will until I'm holding mine :-)

I totally understand. Even now, with my two kids and how many months or years later, I sort of can't comprehend it. I remember being pregnant and delivering them, but it almost doesn't seem real even in retrospect.
It's just too amazing and incredible to totally understand, I think.

I'm with you on this! We didn't even know whether Mikko would be a boy or girl, so it was all surprise and so surreal to look down and realize, "So that's what you look like." And Mikko in particular looked nothing like me at birth, so much so that I couldn't quite believe he was mine. He looked totally liked my husband's side of the family, so I knew he was Sam's, but...well, it was illogical since I had just pushed the kid out, but there you go!
The newborn thing is funny, too, because I wasn't sure what features were permanent and what was just from being scrunched up and wet for so long. Mikko had this Neanderthal brow that I was really concerned about. Funny in retrospect, now that it's (happily) gone! :)
Enjoy meeting your sweet new baby!

[Video] Heroes of the Storm pits Jim Raynor against Diablo
Want to see space marine Jim Raynor from the Starcraft universe take on Mr. Diablo from his own diablo universe? How about the fallen angel Tyrael from diablo universe taking on the Zerg form of Sarah Kerrigan? Maybe death knight Arthas going up against a starcraft Ghost? Yes? Well Blizzard has you covered, with Heroes of the Storm.
Everyone who's keeping themselves updated into the whole e-sports scene should have at least heard of what DotA is. It's Defense of the Ancients which was a free Warcraft 3 mod created by a group of users a few years back. It has since grown into a huge sensation played by over millions of people worldwide. Now Blizzard entertainment owns Warcraft 3 but not the mods, so the people at Valve (makers of half life, steam, portal, and left 4 dead) decide to pick this up and make an official free to play game called Dota 2 which now consistently racks up the highest volume players within the steam client.
Now Blizzard realized this and will not take any of it. So they are now coming out with Heroes of the Storm, which is supposed to be a MOBA (Massive online battle arena) similar to Dota but will include the high profile Blizzard characters like the ones mentioned above.
I have been quite deeply invested my time into DotA 2 with a few hundred hours in so I'm quite hesitant to move or even get excited about this. But we'll see, the draw of Blizzard characters is just very tempting. So hope this game is good and succeeds. I'll definitely try it out.
They haven't announced who the character list is but in the below video, they only have a 2 second segment that quickly flashes the silhouette of the characters. I can see Kerrigan, a space marine, a ghost, 2 birds maybe from diablo and another from warcraft, I see a dwarf, and angel, someone with a crossbow.
Watch the video and decide for yourself.

OAKLAND — A shooting following an argument in downtown Oakland on Tuesday morning left a bystander wounded, police said.
The woman who was shot was hit in the shoulder and was expected to recover.
The gunman got away after the shooting, which occurred about 10:30 a.m. in the 1300 block of Broadway.
A police watch commander witnessed the incident and pursued the suspect, but the gunman got away, police said.
Police said two men were arguing and one pulled a gun and began shooting at the other. The intended target was not hit but gunfire struck the woman, who was standing nearby.
The gunman ran away and the intended target also left before police could talk to him. With the help of witnesses, police later found a handgun they believed was used in the shooting in the 1400 block of Broadway.

text: Young Motorcyclist Decapitated in Freak Accident Driver of a Ford Taurus lost control, setting the tragedy into motion By Newser Editors, Newser Staff Posted Apr 13, 2017 7:14 AM CDT 54 comments A stock photo of a motorcyclist. (Getty Images/ninelutsk) (Newser) – A Ford Taurus crashed in a yard in San Bernardino, Calif., Tuesday morning, and the accident set off a series of events that ended in a freak tragedy. The Press-Enterprise reports that after the driver lost control and struck a mailbox, his car didn't stop in that home's yard but continued down Adams Street, ultimately hitting a wooden utility pole. The impact broke the pole in two, which moved a wire into the path of the roadway, reports the AP. Minutes later, a motorcyclist identified as Fabian Zepeda, 27, drove into the wire and was decapitated. Police do not believe the driver of the Taurus was intoxicated, and he has not been arrested.

Various tricks and techniques are taught by means of exercises. Hints are given in a separate section and a third section contains all solutions in detail. A dictionary section gives definitions of the combinatorial notions occurring in the book.
Combinatorial Problems and Exercises was first published in 1979. This revised edition has the same basic structure but has been brought up to date with a series of exercises on random walks on graphs and their relations to eigenvalues, expansion properties and electrical resistance. In various chapters the author found lines of thought that have been extended in a natural and significant way in recent years. About 60 new exercises (more counting sub-problems) have been added and several solutions have been simplified.

Grandparents Day 2016 will be Sunday, September 11!
Grandparents are one of those things that everyone has. If you didn't, you wouldn't be here. I don't know about you, but my grandparents and pseudo or adoptive grandparents have all made a tremendous impact on my life. Today I'll be sharing some grandparents day gift ideas, and throughout the week, I'll have more grandparent related encouragement to share but first
If you are a Grandparent or older adult: Would you commit to do something grand with the younger folks in your life for the coming year? Will you share your wisdom, perspectives and experiences with younger people and become an advocate for the children? Will you commit to praying for them and ask God to give you burden for the youth of today?
If you are a younger adult: Would you commit to doing something grand and connect with and serve with your grandparents or other older adults that you know? Grandparents, for the most part, love company and have lots of stories to share and wisdom to impart. Will you take the time to listen and make them feel special?
If you are part of a grand-family: I honor you for choosing to provide a safe and loving home to your grandchildren or other relatives in your care. You are doing something grand for those children/young people every day of the year. You may never know in this life, the impact you have had/will have, but it is grand. May the Lord bless and guide you and give you an overabundance of patience, wisdom and love.
10 Great Gifts for Grandparents:
- Does Grandma love bags? Vera Bradley is having a 20% off sale September 2-3 as well as free shipping on $50 or more.
- Create a custom Grandparent's Day Card with TinyPrints.
- Make a photo memory book, calendar, mug, throw blanket or other personalized gift at Shutterfly.
- Get them a devotional like Streams in the Desert (for her) or Jesus Calling (for Him).
- Make a gift like framed art made by you (or your kids). See our other home-made and kid-made gift ideas on Pinterest.
- Make a cake or cookies (this one always wins with Grandpa).
- Do they like to read? Get them a Kindle or an iPad, or buy them a subscription to Audible (for audio books).
- Buy a meaningful book and write a special not inside telling them how much they mean to you.Grandpa Green is one of our newest favorites.
- Make them a short movie, recording yourself, your kids, other grandkids expressing your love and thanks.
- Give them a phone call, or a visit. Time is often the best present.
Grandparents Matter
Your Grandparents have given you much more than you may now (or ever) realize. Don't wait to put flowers on their grave to tell them how much they mean. Reward them now for their sacrifices. Hug them, gift them, take them to dinner, listen to them, sit with them and hold their hand, sing with them, whatever you can do to show your appreciation for all they have invested.
What will you do this Grandparents Day to make your Grandparent(s) feel special?

This is The Phoenix Project RPG, a completely free, superhero expansion pack for d20 Modern. These rules layer on top of Modern with relatively few changes. If you know how to play Modern or D&D 3.X, then you can play this game with relative ease.
The site is separated into pages that more or less represent chapters in a book. The first seven of them—Character Creation, Ads and Comps, Classes, Skills, Feats, Powers, and Gear—provide all the information you need to make a character. They're in order of how fundamental they are to your character. Ability scores are the most basic stats you have, on top of which go skills, for example. The last three pages—Combat, GMing, and the Appendices—segue from game rules for everyone (Combat) to specific guidelines and tools for running the game (GMing and Appendices).
That being said, don't ever think of Phoenix as something that you have to read end to end in strict, linear order. It's a game, not homework. The whole point of arranging this information on a website is so that you can consult it, access it like a manual, so in addition to pages, the rules are also organized by "tags," which are key words that appear in the individual entries on the site. You can see the tags displayed in a cloud in the right-hand menu.
The difference between the two is that pages are strictly hierarchical and tags are messy and horizontal. If you want to know everything that goes under "combat," then look at the combat page. If you want to know every entry on the site that mentions the Stealth skill, then click "stealth" in the tag cloud, and a dozen posts will appear.
For a more detailed overview of the game, read our Q&A page.

Emma Henderson & Victoria Beattie
Clear summer skies are just around the corner and we couldn't be more excited to get whisked away, be carefree and inspired by our bucket-list destination travels. This month, Emma Henderson and Victoria Beattie of The Beach People, take us to the land down under, where they share their best-kept secrets and celebrate our A La Plage summer capsule collection and our exclusive Roundie towel collaboration to accompany our seaside escapes and beyond…
On Sundays…
Your morning routine always consists of…
Victoria - A cup of tea for myself and making breakfast for my boys, my husband Jesse, my son Theodore, and our dog, Duke. We usually go to Sunday morning service at our local church; it's a lovely way to start the day.
Emma - one of my three children waking me up and asking for breakfast. My husband and I try to convince them to snuggle in bed with us for as long as we can and then enjoy a lazy breakfast and a drive to check the surf. We also go to church on Sundays; the kids love it!The kids are dying to go out and play at…
Victoria - Theodore is obsessed with Emma's girls so it's usually a trip to a local park or farm with coffee and treats to hang with the cousins.
Emma – The beach is our happy place, the kids run free, play in the sand and explore the rock pools. I take a big bowl of fruit and we are set for the day.
We will always find you wearing...
Victoria – A floaty dress, hair loose and barefoot…
Emma – Relaxed linens that are loose and slouchy. I also love a good pair of dungarees.
A day by the sea or cozy at home?
Victoria – Always by the sea. In the summertime, I'm there for a swim and in winter for a bonfire and a sneaky glass of red wine.
Emma – I find if we have had a big day, I pile the kids in the car and we all walk along the beach to sooth the soul. Even if it's just for 20 minutes, it washes all of our worries away.
Victoria, your partnership with the Great Barrier Reef Foundation is so inspiring. Can you tell us more about it?
Victoria – Absolutely! We have partnered with the Great Barrier Reef Foundation to support their reef restoration and protection. Through projects like rehabilitating turtle habitats and removal of blue starfish (although pretty they are a pest), we are seeing the reef and its inhabitants restored and protected.
When it comes to the seaside life in Australia…
What the best part about living in New South Wales?
Victoria - The people are so beautiful, caring, kind, and considerate. The rich produce and the beaches are some of the best in the world. I often tease my friends in the cities with pictures of empty beaches and dolphins jumping on the horizon, ha!
Emma – We live in a coastal country town and everyone says hello as you walk by. So friendly. We are so close to Byron Bay, which is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, with its white sands, warm waters, and crowd-free scenery.
Favorite place for a weekend get-away?
Victoria - Yamba please! Or a stay-cation at The Atlantic Byron Bay for a night is lovely too!
Emma – Definitely Byron Bay. Great food, shops, and the beaches are next level.
A go-to local beach spot?
Victoria – My husband and I love to go fishing or stand up paddle boarding at our local creek. We also enjoy meals at the Halcyon House at Cabarita beach.
Emma – We love Hastings Point. It has a beautiful creek running out to the sea and a big headland. If the season is right, we take a picnic dinner there and watch the whales swim by.Most important essentials for an ocean adventure?
Victoria – A Roundie (of course!), sunscreen, and some goggles to see underwater…and my cute little boy Theodore in his adorable swimmers covered in sand and giggling…that's all I need.
Emma – Roundie! I love a big umbrella too so we can stay out all day.
On the success of The Beach People's Roundie Towel and your collaboration with Joie…
What made you think of making towels that are round?
Emma: Victoria and I were sitting on the beach watching our husbands surf and I simply turned to Victoria and said "Don't you think round towels could be cool?" After two years of hard work setting up the business, ensuring we had the perfect product with amazing quality, we launched in the summer of 2013.
What is the inspiration behind the brand's artful and eye-catching geometric designs?
Victoria: Different things inspire Emma and me; I love observing nature, culture, and people and their stories.
Emma: I'm inspired by fashion, architecture, and design.
Using our A La Plage collection as the main theme behind our collaboration, what stood out to you the most?
Emma: We loved the Santorini feel of the mood board Joie sent through with the island's bright whites and rich blue hues. It made us want to travel to Greece and jump into that beautiful Aegean Sea.
Take us behind the collaboration's design process and how you incorporated your vision with that of Rachel's to execute this design...
Emma: Rachel sent us a very inspired mood board of what Joie had in mind for a Roundie collaboration. The design team and I sat together and we mused through the images until we had a design that would suit both of our aesthetics. We love it and hope you all do too!
If you could take our Joie x TBP Roundie anywhere in the world...
Emma: The Greek Islands please…
From sisterhood to motherhood...
What is your relationship like as sisters working together?
Victoria: I love it! I get to work with my best friend every day. We are lucky to get along so well; we are polar opposites so we think that helps too. I was working in the office with the team today and Em rang to say that she was sitting with Daisy, her four-year-old, who was sick in hospital and was wondering if we could tag team so she could leave and feed her baby. I am now chatting from here with a sleeping Daisy, writing a speech, texting staff, and doing this interview. We just cover one another and make things work. As Mum's, it's a pretty sweet deal to work with each other. Our team teases us that together we are one super human. We're better together!
Emma: There would be no TBP without Vic! She is a real go-getter, which is completely opposite to me; I'm a bit of a daydreamer. And being sisters I can read her like a book without her even having to open her mouth! It's the best!
Between the two of you, who is more creative? Business-minded? Or equally both?
Victoria: Emma is definitely the more creative one; anything pretty that you see has come from her.
Emma: Victoria is amazing at branding/business side of things, that's where she enjoys herself the most. I love watching her do her thing; she is so wise!
What has motherhood taught you so far?
Victoria: To be selfless and humble.
Emma: To take each day as it comes, no two days are the same and although I may not be a perfect mother, love always wins.
What is it like having kids in the same age range?
Victoria: It's great as they play and Em and I can bounce ideas off one another. I'll ring her and say the baby woke last night and she'll give me a tip to try something new.
Emma: I love that we are raising our families together. If I'm having a tough day, I call Vic and say "can you feed all five of us tonight?" Ha! And the kids adore each other, which is beautiful to watch.
Best tips on balancing work life and family life? How do you enjoy the little things in life?
Victoria: Accepting that it's never going to slow down and that the best time to rest and switch off is now, right in the middle of it all. I have no trouble leaving my phone at home and spending time with the family. When I am on holidays, I switch off…no emails etc. I think the best tip is to not be hard on yourself, do your best, and give yourself a high five for being a great mum!
Emma: Live the life you want to live now. I love spending time with my children at the end of the day. There is always something to be done with three small children but I put it all aside and at the end of the day, we walk along the beach or do some baking or just hang out.
Any exciting summer travel plans?
Victoria: I am heading to New Zealand for a family reunion (my husband is a Maori/Kiwi) for three weeks. We are hiring a campervan and heading round the south island and surfing up the east coast. Family fun times!
Emma: We are off to Bali next week for a family holiday. We can't wait.
A secret you can share about the other sibling?
Victoria: Emma is so stylish! She is one of those people that always look good while I am covered in dirt and have chipped nails. She is always the lady, and the kindest, most thoughtful friend who is always baking treats for others and cooking meals for sick friends. Never too busy for anyone, she's also addicted to shopping and dark chocolate…naughty girl.
Emma: Victoria is the craziest animal lover!! She follows dog Instagram's and while we are in business meetings, she is looking under the desk at pictures of her dog Duke and smiling, it's hilarious! Duke is like her other child, ha! Victoria has the best sense of humor. Last Halloween, she dressed up as a ghost and hid in the warehouse scaring all the staff as they arrived at work. She is the life of the party and never misses a good time!

Drano Love
If only you could drown the heart in Drano,
unclogging the feelings stuck in your chest.
Feelings that will never find words effective enough
for containment.
These words need not be heavy,
since the sensation of danger is a strength in and of itself.
But they need to be colorful,
colorful enough to flash a message,
Help me help me help me
blinking like the light bulbs encircling a starlet's dressing room mirror.
While these shooting stars fly down to earth,
propelled by a chemical orbit,
your heart is overdosing on feelings.
Just as quiet.
Just as deadly.
Help me help me help me
It feels like when you swallow a twenty-milligram pill of Ritalin
and the yellow circle gets stuck in your throat.
Binding you, like a ribbon around a ballerinas' foot.
But only for a second.

As of now, no one knows how to break the grip of low incomes, blighted towns and popular anger in the U.S. and elsewhere. But a Venezuelan economist named Carlota Perez says that, if history is correct, things only look uniquely tough. In her view, government needs to step in now, trigger serious market demand, and dampen financial excess in order to ignite a new golden economic age.
Why it matters: According to Perez, the last couple of centuries have been cycles of such maladies, each time leading to a decades-long period of broad prosperity. If she is right, the question is: How and when do we get to the golden age part?

Why I need to live in France
Or Italy. Or Spain. The point is, I need to live in Europe. Most people think I'm crazy. What? Why would you leave the comforts of home? The place where you know how things work? But to me, that's precisely the attraction of living abroad.
Don't forget, I moved to Milan, Italy with two young children, just for the adventure and a chance to introduce my kids to the world.
So every dollar I save these days goes into my "Move to Europe" fund.
Paris is my first choice. It used to be Italy (we speak the language and know how the country works — or, ahem, doesn't work), but last fall, a trip to Paris changed our mind. Now that I wrote that, I realize that our trip to Italy last year was equally as memorable. Maybe I'll just have a flat in both.
I love the pace of life in Europe. I love the plethora of outdoor cafes, and the fact that they're always full, any time of day. I mean who just sits and relaxes and drinks a glass of wine at 3pm? Apparently, everyone in Europe. I've been called a "lush" for suggesting a glass of wine on a Wednesday afternoon at 3pm here in the U.S. We've been programmed differently. Relaxing is unproductive. But I dispute that. Relaxing is when my subconscious, creative thinking take over and that's what we're lacking in corporate leadership these days — creative thinking. I digress…
It occurred to me the other day when my son, a college junior, moved to New York for a summer internship. He's called (okay, texted) me every day with some exciting news — who he met, what he ate, funny things that happen only in NY. It was then that I realized how, like me, every experience is an adventure. Good or bad. It's the thrill of experiencing something new that feeds my love for food and travel. I think that's what sets adventurous people apart — we see the positive in every experience.
So imagine getting to do that every single day. Because that's what life in a foreign country is like for most people. It's not just experiencing new sights, or new foods or the trials and tribulations of daily life. It's meeting new people who all have interesting stories to tell. It's seeing new fashion, new architecture (Oh how I wish I had paid better attention in art history), new ways of doing things. Because that makes every day an adventure — a learning experience. There is no Groundhog Day, waking up and going through the motions of your every day life. Because living abroad, every day is something different.
Would it get old? Probably. Truth be told, it got old for me after two years in Italy. So if Paris gets old after two years, I'll go to Madrid. And then the Azores. And then Croatia.

It was a most moving moment. "Mothers of the Movement" lined up across the Democratic National Convention stage in Philadephia Tuesday night, sharing their grief. The Movement? Mic.com identifies them as mothers "whose children's names helped energize the Movement for Black Lives and the Black Lives Matter network."
According to the site, both groups were spawned out of the outrage generated by the 2013 acquittal of George Zimmerman, charged with murder for the fatal shooting of 17-year old Trayvon Martin in a gated community in Sanford, Florida in 2012. In the true Democrat style of never letting a good crisis go to waste, the DNC paraded out these women as part of their build-up for the evening. It was heart-rending; it was tragic. And it was despicable.
No parent should have to bury a child; no mother should have to mourn a life needlessly taken by violence. But there they were--eight women sharing their personal agony before the nation:
Sybrina Fulton, the mother of Trayvon Martin, who at 17 was shot to death "in self-defense" by George Zimmerman while transiting his neighborhood;
Geneva Reed-Veal, the mother of 28-year old Sandra Bland, found hanging in her Waller County jail cell after a traffic stop that escalated out of control;
Lucy McBath, the mother of Jordan Davis, a 17-year old shot during an altercation about loud music in a convenience store parking lot;
Gwen Carr, the mother of Eric Garner, who suffocated in a chokehold during a confrontation with police over selling untaxed cigarettes on the street;
Cleopatra Pendleton, the mother of Hadiya, a 15-year old victim of Chicago's out of control gun violence and failed gun control policies in that city;
Maria Hamilton, the mother of Dontre, shot 14-times by a Milwaukee policeman after the mentally-ill man grabbed the officer's police baton and attacked the him during a pat-down in a park.
Lezley McSpadden, the mother of Michael Brown, the 18-year old shot to death in Ferguson, Mo. when he rushed a police officer sitting in his car, and tried to grab the officer's gun.
Wanda Johnson, the mother of Oscar Grant, a 22-year old who was removed from a BART train for passengers' complaints of fighting, shot while struggling with police.
Only three of the women spoke on Tuesday night's program. They were eloquent, passionate, and pitiable. Fulton spoke of "common sense gun legislation," and "saving the children." In case you don't know, those first four words are code for doing away with the Second Amendment. McBath vowed to "keep telling our children's' stories," hopefully so that no others have to lose a child to urban violence. Reed-Veal, the mother of Sandra Bland, gave a powerful address, speaking about her daughter's unlawful traffic stop in Waller.
That traffic stop went south when Bland got mouthy. Was her death--suicide by hanging in the Waller County Jail--tragic? Absolutely. Was it preventable? Undoubtedly. But how did Sandra Bland come to find herself in jail; just where did that traffic stop go wrong? When Bland copped an attitude with the officer.
I ache for the losses of these women but I must also question the circumstances that placed their children at odds with society that resulted in their tragic deaths.
What did these mothers teach their children about respect? Not just for parents, but for any adult or elder or person of authority? At what point did these kids decide it was okay to defy a policeman or escalate an argument with a stranger in a parking lot? What ever happened to common, genteel decency between human beings?
Where are the fathers of these children? Why is there no Fathers of the Fallen Movement for men who've lost sons and daughters? Where were the fathers of these eight young Americans last night? I saw no audience-scans by the TV cameras for these women's husbands in the audience. Were they not a part of their children's upbringing? Not to sound like a civics quiz, but—if not, why not?
If the Democratic party wants to heal this nation and truly unite our peoples, then let it begin by enabling families to mend; let it begin by encouraging families to remain whole. Call me old-fashioned, but kids need to be raised by a father and a mother—there are two kinds of discipline at work in that dynamic, velvet and iron—and they both require equal parts in a child's education on how to behave in polite society, or even in impolite society.
Why is the Democratic party more concerned about funding for abortions and a woman's "freedom to choose" than in investing in the nuclear family? Instead of continuing the shameful bribery begun by Lyndon Johnson's welfare programs that rewarded unmarried women for having children out of wedlock, why are married couples penalized for staying together, IRS?
As the Party of Hope, the DNC has been full of disappointments this week. But parading the mothers around, whose motherhood was snatched from them prematurely, is a new, all-time low.
Oh, and that 'hands-up, don't shoot' malarkey is a myth, based upon a lie.
Michael Brown never said it as he was lunging for the Ferguson PD's pistol.

Sub-$1,000 price with widescreen monitor. Lenovo Care tools (aka ThinkVantage utilities). Lots of included software. Decent expansion space. Dual-core AMD X2 processor. Windows Vista Premium-ready.
Some software is trialware and bloatware. No DVD burner. Only 90-day Norton Internet Security subscription. Could use a multimedia card reader.
Bottom Line
Looking for a little more than a basic PC, but want to keep it under $1,000 complete? Take a look at the Lenovo 3000 J115, a basic business PC that's grown up.
Lenovo continues to branch out from its ThinkCentre model line with the basic 3000 series of desktops. Last year's J105 system has been replaced with the Lenovo 3000 J115 ($678 direct, $917 with 19-inch widescreen LCD monitor). The J115 represents a great value for the small-business owner. It's powerful enough to handle most general business tasks without the hassle of the specialized hardware found in more corporate-oriented PCs. In addition, it offers upgrade capabilities to handle your digital life. The J115 is a good business-home multitasker.
Similar Products
My J115 review unit came with the base 2-GHz AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ dual-core processor (you can upgrade to a faster X2 4200+ processor for an extra $150). However, the 3800+ processor (along with 1GB of system memory) is enough for just about all general business tasks, including light desktop publishing and graphics work. The 1GB system memory also allows Lenovo to set the integrated nVidia GeForce 6100 graphics to 256MB, allowing the system to be Windows Vista Premiumready. The J115's 160GB hard drive has plenty of space for both business (spreadsheets, advertising materials, invoices) and pleasure (games, videos, music). About the only thing missing is a multimedia card reader to load your digital camera pictures directly from a card.
Unlike some consumer models, the J115 has plenty of space inside for the additional drives (there's one free SATA port and one free IDE port), though you will need a screwdriver to open the case. If you want to upgrade beyond the included 1GB, you'll have to swap out the existing memory. Still, unless your day-to-day tasks include working in Adobe Photoshop and video editing, it's unlikely you'll need to add more memory.
Lenovo packed in a subset of its ThinkVantage utilities, including the excellent Rescue and Recovery utility, which can help back up your system locally so it can be recovered in case of a software failure such as a virus or malware intrusion. Other included software runs from useful (Picasa, WinDVD) to semi-useful (trialware versions of Paint Shop Pro and CorelDraw Graphics). I wish that the Norton Internet Security subscription were longer than 90 days. Make sure you renew, or install your own after 90 days.
The Lenovo L192 19-inch monitor has 1,440-by-900 resolution, giving it a 16:10 aspect ratio that is ideal for viewing spreadsheets as well as the occasional DVD. It's not a mission-critical display suitable for a high-end graphics workstation, but then again it adds only a little over $200 to the price.
Compared with its big brother, the ThinkCentre A60, the J115 offers great bang for the buck, especially if you don't need the specialized security features of the A60. It's also a lot cheaper than the corporate-inclined Editors' Choice Dell Optiplex 745. If you need a bit more power than a basic clerical PC, but don't need the specialized security hardware found in more corporate-oriented PCs, the Lenovo 3000 J115 is a happy medium. It's a good fit for someone who needs a PC that can handle both business and home activities.
Compare the desktops mentioned above side by side.

'Rio' Helmer Carlos Saldanha Sets And Staffs Up BottleCap Productions At Fox
EXCLUSIVE: Carlos Saldanha, who co-directed Ice Age and then helmed two Ice Age sequels in addition to Robots and Rio, has formed BottleCap Productions. The label is Fox-based, where Saldanha made an exclusive five-year deal with 20th Century Fox and Fox International to develop both live-action and animated projects.
Saldanha has hired former Scott Free exec Maresa Pullman as his VP, and promoted Jessica Roberts to Creative Executive. Pullman, who will report directly to Saldanha, most recently worked at Scott Free where she helped develop the Duplass Brothers' Cyrus, and co-produced Jake Scott's Welcome To The Rileys. She also worked closely with Ridley Scott on a number of projects, serving as an executive producer on Scott Free's short animated film featuring the Coca-Cola polar bears. She also worked directly under producer Michael Costigan, working on such films as American Gangster and Body Of Lies. She began her career in the WMA mailroom and also worked for manager Margaret Riley. (more…)

Writing stand-alone series or over arcing series…the difference between crazy and totally bonkers.
Let's get two things out of the way:
We writers are a special breed. It's not really all that normal to spend all our time with people who don't exist. So, deciding to be a writer is its own brand of crazy. Writing an over arcing series is just plain insanity.
I once swore I would NEVER write a werewolf. EVER. While I enjoy paranormal, thinking about that kind of world-building gave me a headache. I remember watching Trueblood and was like, LOVE it, but yeah, I don't want to go there. When we found out Sookie was a Fairy, I was like, WHAT? Yeah, ever writing about them either.
Then I was asked to write in Milly Tadien's worlds. Both in Paranormal Dating Agency and Sassy Ever After. Not only am I writing about werewolves and fairies, but I created an entirely new created called a Wolfairy!
When I first started in the Paranormal Dating Agency, I had no idea that my planned 4 book series would turn into an over arcing storyline that spans all 4 books. You see, I'm a huge fan of series. I love taking a secondary character and giving them their own story. The majority of my books are set up that way. A series of books about cops. A series of books about sisters. About brothers. About firefighters. But they don't have to be read in order. Each book is a separate storyline and isn't dependent on anything from the book before it, or after it. So, when I sat down to plot out the first book in my planned series, imagine my surprise when I realized while each book has a problem to solve, and a new budding romance, the Wolfaires won't be safe until the end of the very last book.
I realized this was going to happen the second I had my hero claim his mate. Why? Because he did so a little begrudgingly. He'd heard about this the Legend of the Wolf and the Princess, but he never expected that he'd be THE wolf. And our heroine didn't even know she was a paranormal creature until after she'd been claimed.
The hard part is remembering all the rules in this new world I created. It's also challenging to remember all the important details. I keep a hand written legal pad for the series where I write down all the key players, elements, and what was resolved and what's still unanswered. But sometimes it feels like it's a moving puzzle and I'm missing half the pieces! I'm also slowly revealing details about the Royal Fairies and King Lear during each book. With each new pairing, something new is discovered.
I'm finishing up the last book right now and while it took me a while to reconnect myself with not just the characters, but all the details about the world and how it's changed, all making sure that EVERY SINGLE thread is closed before the end of this book.
It's been an overwhelming process, and this isn't the only series I've done this with, but I question if I want to do it again. However, when I look back on this series, I'm in awe of what I created. I never thought my mind would work that way…
Proving, I'm totally bonkers!
Or totally brilliant. You choose!


text: Something about these photos by Karin Nussbaumer really makes me think of Easter. It might be the pastels/yellows or the fact that I need a serious lie down after all the easter chocolate I've just inhaled and there are a lot of images of lounging around here. Either way, lovely atmospheric work.

A promotional party or event is mainly a marketing and public relations tool to drum up interest for a product, service or some other type of business. Promotional parties can run the gamut from trendy to highbrow to grunge. The key to the party is having it both appeal to the audience that you are hoping to attract and pushing the product in a way that creates interest.
Appeal to the Market's Tastes
A promotional event is nothing if no one shows up or leaves early because they don't like what they find. To get people in the door, and to get them to stay once they are there, you need to give them something they want. If you study your target audience, you should be able to learn what things will most likely appeal to them. For example, provide live music--but be careful whom you choose to provide it. A band covering classic rocks songs, for example, would create quite a different mood and atmosphere than, say, a small jazz combo.
Offer Free Stuff
From free food and drinks to free branded items, such as water bottles or key chains to a raffle-style drawing, free items, or the possibility of free items, will bring people to your event, or can at least entice them if they are still trying to decide whether or not they want to go. "Brand" anything that you give out; that is, make sure the items have your company's name, logo and general contact information on them.
Provide Ways for Attendees to Get Involved
To make the experience better for your attendees, and to make them more likely to talk about it afterward, include ways for people to get involved in the event happening around them. From drawings on the half hour to a face painting station at a family event, to the opportunity to try something out that is related to the thing that you are promoting, such as including a rock climbing wall at a rock climbing event, getting people actively involved will make the event more memorable to them.

Fraud is an unfortunate feature of business that every owner must deal with. Fortunately, well-intentioned employees notice more than their bosses do and come forward with observed accounts of fraud. This is known as whistleblowing, the act of reporting evidence of fraud or misconduct internally within a company or government. Whistleblowing has a very real impact. Research shows that 65% of employees who observed wrongdoing reported what they'd seen, costing a typical company about five percent of its annual revenue. What's more, about one in five corporate fraud cases reported in the United States between 1996 and 2014 was brought to light by a whistleblower — that's 20% of corporate fraud cases over 18 years. Whistleblower law firms exist to protect the whistleblower under federal and state law. Almost half of employees who see malpractice choose not to report it due to the fear of being retaliated against. No matter what, though, you need to say something when you see something wrong, which is also why you need the help of a whistleblower lawyer. There are some benefits to reporting fraud, known as qui tam lawsuits. A qui tam lawsuit is a civil lawsuit brought by the whistleblower under the
