A peal of ear-splitting thunder echoed throughout the room. The atmosphere felt charged as the sky opened up and heavy splats of rain fell on the stones of the patio outside the glass doors.
Our eyes locked. I moved toward Moriah and ran my finger down her cheek and on to her lips. Her mouth opened and she sucked my finger, twirling her tongue around it.
I slipped a cuff on each wrist and raised her arms. She was just short enough that her hands didn't reach the ceiling. I ran the rope through the hook and pulled it taut. She stood almost in the middle of the room, her arms stretched high, standing almost on tiptoe.
"What are you going to do to me?" she whispered.
I stood behind her as I made a knot on the hook and lowered my mouth to her ear. "Give me a safe word. Give me a word that, when you say it, I'll stop whatever I'm doing and let you go."
"No, I want you to be able to say 'stop' without really meaning it. Something else."
Her hands now secured above her head, I walked in front of her. Reaching down, I rolled her cotton ribbed sweater up above her breasts, revealing a pretty lace bra. Her eyes widened. The rain was coming down hard, and the room darkened from the storm clouds.
I undid the button on her jeans, slowly lowered the zipper, and pulled her pants down toward her knees. She shook one foot, then the other, sending her slip-ons across the room.
I pulled her jeans off her. All that was left were her bra, panties and socks. And her sweater scrunched up to her chin above her small breasts.
Moriah had a look of wild passion in her eyes as she watched my every move. I left her there and looked around the room for some inspiration.
In the corner were my walking sticks, high-tech poles make of carbon fiber, with rubber-coated tips and leather-wrapped handles with loops that secured them to your wrists while hiking. I picked one up and walked back to Moriah.
She licked her dry lips.
Lightning flashed, followed quickly by the crash of thunder. The fresh smell of ozone filled the air. The excitement was palpable. The atmosphere was charged with electricity, both literal and metaphorical.
Moving back toward her, I undid my shirt and dropped it on the floor on top of her clothes. I took off my jeans, enjoying her sharp intake of breath when she saw my black G-string and matching bra.
Standing before her, I undid the clasp of my bra and let it fall to the floor. My breasts swayed, happy to be free. I lifted them toward her, massaging them as her mouth and tongue sought me out, eager to lick me. I laughed and pulled back, teasing her.
I picked up the hiking stick and pushed it up and under the front of her bra. I pulled hard, which allowed her small breasts to escape the tightness of her straps.
Her bra dangled haphazardly under her armpits, while I slid the pole down the front of her panties. She sucked in her stomach, as though fearing I would scrape her belly.
I hooked her panties on the tip of the pole, snagging them, and pulled down hard, poking a hole in the fabric. I yanked hard and pulled them down to her ankles. She kicked them off.
Moriah was completely nude now, swaying with desire. Her small breasts and firm pink nipples stood out on her stretched torso. I gazed at her wide hips and her triangle of pubic hair atop her shapely legs.
I licked my lips.
Running my fingers through her bush, I spread out the hair, enjoying the smoothness of it, so unlike my nearly hairless pussy. She opened her legs, inviting me in.
But I had other plans. I took the leather-covered handle of the walking stick and ran it from her ankle up the inside of her leg, straying over her pussy. And then down her other leg. She arched herself toward me, her legs opening as wide as she could in her position, which really wasn't very wide.
I took the handle to my own panties, pushing aside the crotch, and began to massage my labia with the leather handle, rubbing the end of it on my clit.
"Oh, yeah, this feels so good," I purred, eyeing her for a reaction. I pushed it further down, working the leather handle into my folds and to the entrance to my hole.
It was starting to feel delicious. I discovered I was wet.
I moved closer to her and thrust my hips into hers, the end of the walking stick now rubbing up against both our pussies.
"Fuck me now, Allie. Please," she begged.
Not yet. Taking the walking stick in my hand and removing it from my G-string, I put it to her mouth. She sucked it, licking off my juices. Standing back, I spread my legs and parted my labia with my fingers, giving her an eyeful. I took the end of the walking stick, now wet with my juices and her spit, and moved it inside me.
She was moving her legs together, trying to get some friction on her hot pussy. I watched her watch me as I slipped the handle in deeper, my lips getting more swollen as I rubbed my clit with my other hand.
I pushed it in further, feeling an orgasm building. I pulled it out. The juices ran down my thighs as I inserted first one, then two fingers in my hole, thrusting them in and out rhythmically. My fingers made squelching noises as I fucked myself.
I moved toward her, still massaging my pussy, and rubbed the wet handle against her pussy, running it along the length of her swollen slit, not allowing it to enter her completely.
Moving the end of it to her clit, I circled it. I could see her climax building. Her face was flushed, her breath came in short spurts, and her vulva was red and swollen. Then she came, her head thrown back, her body heaving, her arms stretched out over her head as her legs hung limply.
I kissed her neck and my tongue traced lightly to her mouth. As our lips locked, our tongues sought out the other's. I broke off the kiss and went back to my toy drawer, pulling out a short, black riding crop with six-inch leather strands. Her eyes widened as I flicked her gently on her stomach.
I wanted to tease her and have fun. I definitely didn't want to overdo spanking with this special new lover. We had never talked about pain play, and I didn't want to turn her off. Her eyes and her squirms told me I could continue….

Creek Fire: Watch illuminated boat parades, live entertainment this summer
Update: The Creek Fire event planned for June 26 has been cancelled due to rain, according to Kelley Gibson, Director of Communications and Engagement at Cultural Alliance of York County.
Previously reported:
As the sun began to set on a recent Saturday night, a crowd of about 150 watched as Codorus Creek in downtown York became illuminated in fire and lights.
At about 8:30 p.m., three floating fire pits were lit, and three kayaks and a sailboat covered in lights set sail for the first illuminated art boat parade.
Some might remember the fire pits from the Creek Fire events, which were held for the first time in 2012 at Foundry Park.
The event was originally organized as a way to bring attention to Codorus Creek and use an under-utilized space, the original organizer Jack Longstreet said.
"This is our wonderful urban water feature," Longstreet said. "People drive over it all the time, and they don't even think about it."
Samuel Clemens made an appearance at Foundry Park for Creek Fire
The second Creek Fire of the year will be held Saturday, June 27 at 7 p.m. Face painting and chalk art will begin at about 7:30 p.m., followed by the lighting of the fire pits at 8:30 p.m. and music from First Capital Brass from 9 to 10 p.m.
Creek Fire used to only include the floating fire pits. But on the fourth Saturday in May, local sculptor Clifton Santiago brought the event back to Foundry Park for the third year and added the illuminated art boat parade and live entertainment.
"Burning fire pits are nice, but it's not enough," Santiago said. "We want to bring people's attention to this part of York and get people to realize that this is a safe part of town."
The event in May kicked off at 7 p.m. with a performance from a Mark Twain impersonator.
Then, Santiago and other local artists prepared for the boat parade. He converted a kayak into a dragon boat, made out of packing material held together with zip ties. The parade also included a ghost ship, a colorful, whimsical creature, and a woman dressed in lights.
"The boats are so unique," Laura Church, of York City, said.
Church brought her three children to Creek Fire for the first time.
"The atmosphere is great," she said. "The kids keep saying, 'Another one, another one!"
After the boat parade, folk band Free Breakfast performed a set until 10 p.m.
Peter Boles, of York City, attended Creek Fire Saturday night and said the crowd was twice as big as last summer.
"It's turning into a really cool event, and it's going to be even better with time," Peter Boles, of York City, said.
Creek Fire will be held every fourth Saturday through September, with different entertainment each time, Santiago said. He hopes to book poets, dance troupes and fire performers for future events, but the summer lineup for the next few months has not yet been set.
Santiago also said he hopes to add more boats to the parade at each event leading up to the grand finale in September.
If you go
What: Creek Fire
When: 7 to 10 p.m. every Fourth Saturday through September

|FFTC Agricultural Policy Articles
Tahlim Sudaryanto
Senior Agricultural Economist, Indonesian Center for Agriculture Socio Economic and
Policy Studies, Ministry of Agriculture, email:firstname.lastname@example.com
Grand Strategy of Agricultural Development (GSAD) 2015-2045 is formulated as part of the constitutional mandate to achieve a dignified, independent, developed, fair, and prosperous Indonesia, no later than 2045 which coincides with the 100 years celebration of Indonesia. This is a momentous occasion to put spirit, and mobilize national resources to achieve the greatest vision as mandated by the constitution. The GSAD is a continuation of the Longterm National Development Plan 2005-2025 and the Master Plan of the Acceleration and Expansion of Indonesian Economic Development 2011-2025. Up until now, Indonesia never formulated any long-term agricultural development plan.
GSAD is formulated as a guidance and a reference for all stakeholders to create synergy, coordination, and complementarity and consensus to achieve a vision, mission and direction of development, agricultural development in particular.
Challenges and opportunities
1. Global climate change reduces the capacity to produce agricultural commodities at the national and global levels, and become a threat to food, energy and water security.
2. Scarcity on the availability and competition of land and water use creates difficulty on land and water extensification for agriculture which ultimately leads to global land and water grabbing.
3. Population growth and urbanization increase demand for food, energy and water, so challenges to achieve food, water and energy security become more difficult.
4. Science and technology innovation becomes more complex and exclusive, so independence on science and technology is a prerequisite to achieve food sovereignity.
5. Industry and trade of agricultural supplies and agricultural products are increasingly occupied by limited number of multinational corporations, so they treathen the existence of predominantly small-scale agricultural businesses in Indonesia.
6. Increasing demand for assurance and complexity of quality attributes create a tranparent and traceable global value chain as prerequsite for market access for smallholder farmers.
7. Pressure on a decentalized governance, people's participation, and governance reform, if it is not managed properly, can be a bottleneck for agricultural development.
1. Utilization of large and growing human resource, in particular demographic dividend, as a competitive base for Indonesia, include actors for both production (human resource) and development of value chain (unique social capital of Indonesia).
2. Utilization of Indonesia's comparative advantage as tropical and maritime country, as natural as the region with the highest productivity and effectivity in the harvest and transformation of solar energy into biomass feedstock of bioindustry, becomes competive advantage based on bioeconomy.
3. Utilization of increasing demand for food, feeds, and environmentally-friendly bioenergy, by developing bioindustry which produce those products in a complementary manner.
4. Utilization of new trends on appreciation of environmental and amenity services as an opportunity to develop ecologically balanced agriculture.
5. Utilization of advancement on global science and technology to develop location specific innovation on agricultue and bioindustry through development of innovation system with strong asset of reserach agencies and universities located around the country.
6. Utilization of land and water resources wisely which is still available in Indonesia, in particular in and out of Java.
7. Utilization of momentum on decentalized government, people's participation and governance reform to develop agricultural politic driven by and targeted toward smallholders.
Direction and conceptual foundation
As an integral part of national development, agricultural development is directed to achieve the objective of national development as mandated by the constitution, namely an independent, developed, dignified, fair, and prosperous Indonesia. In accordance to that paradigm then the GSAD is formulated with the perspective of Indonesia's agriculture which is independent, dignified, developed,fair, and prosperous.
The suitable conceptual framework to pursue that direction are:
1. At the national level, economic development is based on the paradim of "agriculture for national development" cum "development for agriculture".
2. At the sectoral level, "development of a sustainable agricultural-bioindustry system based on bioculture".
The paradigm of "agriculture for development" mentions that national economic development is designed and implemented based on stages of agricultural development and agriculture is positioned as driving force for national development. This paradigm at the same time should be balanced by the paradigm of "development for agriculture". This paradigm is necessary becouse agriculture should be supported by other sectors.
The paradigm of "agriculture for development" emphasizes that agricultural development encompases 10 functions, namely:
1. Development of human resources;
2. Food security;
3. Stengthening household livelihood security;
4. Potential bases of energy security (development of bioenergy);
5. Poverty alleviation and development of equality;
6. Natural environment services;
7. Potential bases for bioindustry development;
8. Creating conducive environment for development;
9. Strengthen economic resiliency;
10. Source of quality growth.

House Of Gozdawa is the contemporary legacy that pays tribute to all those that came before, the stories that were lived and apothecary knowledge that was passed down through generations.

The Ultimate Life Blu-ray Review
To give you the reader a decent explanation of the film The Ultimate Life I would need to start by giving you a review of the first film The Ultimate Gift, but I haven't so this review may seem a little out of context at certain points, hopefully that won't bother anyone. The Ultimate Life is the sequel to 2007's faith-based inspirational drama The Ultimate Gift. Given what I've seen of this film I am sure the original is similar in tone, with lots of feel-good (if overly obvious) messages about what money can (oil rigs, big houses) and can't buy (love, happiness), and how it's a person's friendships and family that count as their true legacy, not their monetary fortune. Not exactly The Godfather we're dealing with here and clearly aimed at an audience better suited in the Bible belt than the NY metro area.
THE ULTIMATE LIFE takes place three years after the events depicted in The Ultimate Gift, Jason Stevens (Logan Bartholomew) is juggling being the head of his billionaire grandfather's family foundation, dealing with a lawsuit from his greedy relatives, and wanting to marry his girlfriend, single mom/nurse Alexia (Ali Hillis). When Alexia takes off to work for a charity overseas, Jason is despondent until family friend Hamilton (Bill Cobb) gives him his late grandfather's journal to guide him. The journal chronicles Red's rags-to-riches story from poor Louisiana ice delivery boy to rich Texas oilman. Inspired by Andrew Carnegie, Red sets out to make a fortune, only to discover that being a billionaire isn't what truly makes him rich.
THE ULTIMATE LIFE is the kind of inspiring, feel-good, mildly sermonizing movie that would feel at home either as a Hallmark special or (if it had more overt references to God and scripture) as a Sunday School presentation. In those contexts, the movie provides exactly what you'd expect: a simple storyline with heartwarming lessons for men about how to be a good husband, father, friend, and man. But unless it's the object of a church-approved outing, the movie, directed by Michael Landon Jr., isn't nuanced or entertaining enough to merit the price of admission.
With its predictable plot and uneven acting (the cast includes quality veterans in small roles and a couple of unimpressive newcomers in bigger parts); The Ultimate Life suffers from being an uninteresting movie with an uneven plot that winds up talking down to its audience. This flashback to Red's ambitious journey to becoming a self-made man is far from Citizen Kane. It's just a corny portrayal of how money is great, but it's not what brings lasting happiness. Now don't me wrong, many films have similar messages and we laud them till the cows come home, but that's because when a film is done right you don't mind hearing the same message again. The Ultimate Life though fails at conveying that message and you're left with feeling frustrated at having given your time to it. Or at least I was.
The Ultimate Life is presented on Blu-ray by 20th Century Home Entertainment with an AVC encoded 1080p transfer in 1.78:1. This is a nice sharp and well detailed high definition presentation of this film. Line detail is precise and stable and the palette is expectedly vivid and brilliantly saturated. The Ultimate Life features a decently immersive lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix that affords good surround activity. But the film never really gets into anything too "showy" here, maintaining an emphasis on the dialogue, which is always presented very cleanly and clearly.
Special Features:
- The Heart of The Ultimate Life: A look at how the film was made
- Interviews with Cast members, author Jim Stovall and Producer Rick Eldridge
- Deleted Scenes
- "One Life" Music Video

Rocket Attacks Miss U.S. Navy Ships
From Samantha L. Quigley,
American Forces Press Service.
Washington D.C. -- (NNS)
August 19, 2005 -- No U.S. Sailors or Marines were injured in an apparent rocket
attack Aug. 19 that missed two U.S. Navy ships in the Red Sea port of Aqaba,
Jordan, officials reported.
"At approximately 8:44 a.m. local time, a suspected mortar rocket flew over the
USS Ashland's (LSD 48) bow and impacted in a warehouse on the pier in the
vicinity of the Ashland and the USS Kearsarge (LHD 3)," U.S. 5th Fleet officials
said in a statement. "The warehouse sustained an approximate 8-foot hole in the
roof of the building."
According to news reports, a Jordanian soldier was killed and another severely
wounded when the rocket hit the warehouse. A second rocket hit near a Jordanian
hospital and a third partially exploded, damaging a road and a car. A third
rocket reportedly landed in the nearby Israeli city of Eilat, with no casualties
and only minor damage.
The ships were in Aqaba supporting the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU)
training with the Jordanians, fleet officials said. The two ships, which
appeared to be undamaged by shrapnel from the building, have left the port.
Ashland is an amphibious landing ship; Kearsarge is an amphibious assault ship
that also serves as command ship of an amphibious ready group.
The U.S. military said the attack is currently under investigation. News sources
cite a Jordanian government release that states three Katyusha rockets were
fired from a warehouse in Aqaba close to the port.
Information available on the Web said the Katyusha was originally a World War
II-era Soviet rocket. However, references now to the weapon mean not just one
type of rocket, but a whole range of different artillery rockets, whether from
old Soviet or other-nation stock. The Katyusha reportedly has been used in a
number of insurgencies, including those in Iraq.

It has been a long day yesterday…. Right from interviewing some inters joining my team to attending Bangalore Barcamp - listening to some amazing talks by my friends. Barcamps hold a special meaning in my life and to prove that statement, I started blogging after attending Pune Barcamp 2007 which happens to be my first Barcamp.
As you would know I have been blessed to work with some amazing companies like Oracle, IBM, Motorola, Teleca & Huawei. Barcamp has thought me the art of sharing & learning, thus let me share with you'll key lessons that I have encountered & adopted during my 6 years of corporate experience:
- Truly believe in the company & project you are part of. Until and unless you are not passionate you can never give your best
- Instead of your manager, Plan & Strategies your own work
- Set targets & benchmarks for yourself. Timely keep a track on our scores
- If you feel insecure it's time to learn & work hard in improving your skill sets
- Do things the way no one ever can do it the way you do
- Instead of working hard, work smartly
- Network & build your brand
- Take ownership
- Help people working for & with you to grow, they will help you step ahead
- Present yourself & your work in the best way possible to management
- Let failures never define you, but help you get one step closer to success
- Last not the least – Learn, Share, Contribute, Support & Inspire people around you.
You will never be remembered in a company for your contributions, but for the way you treated people around. So have a true beautiful heart and don't ever forget to carry a smile on your face no matter what the situation is.
Yesterday across the dining table one of my friends said, "You sound very corporate".
Well I take it as a compliment because my Dear friends I know my business very well.

Laser tattoo removal is one of the best and most advanced ways to get rid of tattoos. If you are bored with the ink on your body, you can choose to remove the tattoo. Just like you would pay attention to the tattoo studio at the time of getting inked, you will have to spend more time in deciding on tattoo removal. In this post, we will cover 10 aspects of removing tattoos with laser that you probably didn't know about.
- Laser tattoo removal is not just effective, but it is also great removing all kinds of colors, with limited risks of scarring. Basically, there are two ways to remove tattoo with laser. The first one is called 'active' laser removal, which is better than other option of 'passive' removal. With Active Q-Switched laser, it is possible to remove all kinds of florescent colors, such as green and yellow, which are often impossible to remove otherwise.
- Laser removal is not suited for anyone who is prone to scarring. Do check with your doctor if you are susceptible to keloid scarring. You also need to understand that laser removal of tattoos can take much longer time and more sessions as compared to getting a design done. Depending on the size of the tattoo, you may have to take anywhere between five to twelve sessions, and there will be an ideal gap between two treatments, which means that the treatment can last for a few months. With people who have complex and colored tattoos, the requirement can be much longer.
- Well, no matter kind of tattoo removal you choose, there will be some form of pain, but laser removal is considered to be a step ahead of older treatments. If you are choosing a professional clinic like epdb.org, you will get a list of skincare instructions to heal the area. The skin after removal is vulnerable, and the service may suggest using a sunscreen and other ointments.
What else to know?
Tattoo removal is a complex process, and after every session, the skin may be red and inflamed, which would need extra care. Keeping the skin protected and clean is extremely important. Take your time to choose a tattoo removal service, because their experience and expertise is the key to better results. Hypopigmentation, which is mostly seen in people with darker skin, is also one of the side effects of tattoo removal, so talk to the experts about any other possible aspect that needs attention.

Pro 3D-Printing Pen Exceeds Kickstarter Target in Two Hours
Targeted toward designers and architects, the Lix 3D printing pen is a sleek and new stylish tool that promises to open up the design market to anyone interested in 3D printing.
"We have a small and lightweight product that is power supplied from any usual USB port. Lix Pen is very portable and comfortable to use. 3Doodler on the other hand, is heavy, big, difficult to use and is power supplied by standard power electrical outlet that is not practical," says co-founder Anton Suvorov, when asked how the product differs from the 3Doodler.
"We have created a slick looking and professional creative tool," he adds. "Lix 3D printing pen opens new possibilities to many other industries such as for stylists, architects, designers and anybody who are interested in 3D printing."

Bees Knees Day Nursery is based on the Annadale Embankment area of South Belfast. The introduction to the nursery came from an introduction to a web design company at another job in Belfast several months ago. I love word of mouth business. 9 times out of 10 in these cases the business is guaranteed because both myself and the potential client have been properly introduced and their needs are usually identified before i meet with them. The fact that i have been introduced via a mutual party means a certain element of trust is created before the job starts.
Katrina (from the web design company) emailed me a very short brief for the Bees Knees Day Nursery. For the new Bees Knees Day Nursery website they wanted a selection of images from each of the main rooms in the nursery.
Because of the inevitable curiosity of the children at the nursery i would be limited to the equipment i could use in the rooms. I would not be able to leave any gear on the floors or on shelves incase little hands would and find the equipment.
The rooms of the Bees Knees Day Nursery were small enough that i could get most of what i needed with the Nikon 24-70 F2.8 lens. I had to get a set of both wide and long images focusing on happy kids. As at the moment i only have one body and since i didnt want to risk bringing bags and kit in to the rooms with the kids i kept just one lens on. I have the D3s set up in such a way that i can quickly switch between FX and DX crops. This meant i was able to flick in to DX mode quickly for a tighter crop on the image. Yes the resolution would be reduced on the image but as these photos would be used on a website the file reduction in file size would not matter.
Keeping it simple would extend to the lighting as well. I decided to use just two speedlights, the SB-900 and SB-910. Even without umbrellas or other attachments the children were really curious as to what they were. I placed the lights quickly and tried to attract their attention back to their toys by playing along with them for a short time. Once the novelty of the lights vanished they quickly started looking at the camera. I had to leave the camera on a shelf for a little longer to continue playing with them. Again once the novelty wore off i was able to start working.
I kept the flash lights on 1/4 power to ensure enough light to properly illuminate the room as well as to ensure fast recycle times. Whilst i wasn't shooting in continuous mode i wanted to make sure when i lined up a shot again that i wouldn't have to wait for the flashes to recycle. 1 or 2 seconds recycle times means some times a photo can be lost if the strobes dont fire.
Whilst the young toddlers spent time looking at me when i entered the room the younger children, from 12 to 18 months wouldn't take their eyes off me. I would have to take a slower approach with the younger folk. Half of them were wary and the other half were nervous. I had to spend time with each of the children to help them relax. If i brought the camera up too soon i would make them cry so i had to wait until they were all relaxed again.
We also spent a short time outside. Thankfully the weather was amazing for play outdoors. Not so much for taking photos due to bright direct sunlight. As there were so many children running around i could not set up static lights, i could not risk them running in to the stands. So i opted (unusually for me) for on camera flash. I still had to keep a careful eye on highlights though. The sun light was so bright that i was shooting images underexposed so i would have a bit more room to edit during the post processing stages.
Working at places like the Bees Knees Day Nursery makes me really appreciate the fact that i have an amazing job. Children are often the hardest to win adoration or attention from so when you see those little smiles or a pair of eyes peeking around the corner of a wendy house you know the shoot is going to go ok.

Tarot Art Calendar 2006
The 2006 Tarot Art Calendar is a limited edition (up to 100 copies) calendar with original cards for each month by Leslie Cochran, and Arnell Ando of the Transformational Tarot.
By Arnell Ando & Leslie Cochran
Book - Self Published
Review by Bonnie Cehovet
For the past two years I have had a lovely Tarot Art Calendar hanging over my computer. Aside from helping me keep days straight, and allowing me to follow the cycles of the moon, it kept me sane. There were days when either the picture, or the text, was what I needed to see/hear to keep me grounded in this world.
I was ecstatic to hear that the calendar was going to happen again this year, and sincerely hope that this project continues for many years to come.
The calendar is 8 1/2 by 11 inches, and is done on sturdy, high quality, glossy cardstock. The calendar is constructed so that the graphic is on the top page, with the second (lower) page containing the text and the calendar itself. All twelve of the images used are original images, signed by the artist (six by Arnell Ando, and six by Leslie Cochran). Each artist has included a detailed description of their cards that truly show the depth of talent and heart that drive these ladies.
Most major US holidays are included, as well as Christian, Jewish, and Pagan holidays. New, Full, and Quarter-Moon phases are also noted.
Beginning the calendar year is the Star - showing a lovely Hawaiian dancer framed in an arch between two waterfalls. In the background we see lush green vegetation, with a blue star hovering above in a rainbow colored sky. From the calendar:
The Star - Aquarius - Happy New Year!
In the Temple of the Blue Star, the vibrant frescoed walls give way to the lushness of the tropical forest. Twin waterfalls frame the dancer in the grotto, balanced at the edge of a deep pool. In this contemplative place we are reminded of our own divinity, free to move between the earth and sky, under the endless pattern of the stars. Finally at peace with the mystery of all we cannot know, the Star imbues us with a healing energy, calm yet powerful, sparkling with a quiet brilliance.
- Leslie Cochran
My very favorite card - one that jumped right out at me and took my heart, was Arnell Ando's The World (April). We see a tree, with dark branches and a trunk that seems to be lit from within. From the right hand branches hangs a luminous spider's web. Under the tree sits a dark haired female figure, with an Ankh at her throat, wearing voluminous white robes edged in reddish/gold. Her arms are holding a globe of the world that rests in her lap. Around the edge of the globe there appear saw-like teeth. A smaller male figure in resting on the top of the globe, with his arms embracing it. From the calendar:
The World - Happy Earth Day!
Gaia cradles the World in her loving arms. Mankind is affectionately portrayed as the (Charlie Chaplin) "Fool" with an enormous head (full of ego). He is obsessively tinkering and puttering, trying to industrialize everything - going mad with hubris and compulsive progressing. Gaia loves and protects us all, despite our acts of destruction. May we all soon come to realize and give back to her this sacred gift ...
- Arnell Ando
A stunning Victorian based work is represented in the High Priestess (July), by Leslie Cochran. Against a backdrop of white cloud-like forms in a lavender sky, we see a lovely Victorian lady, standing, with a calm expression on her face, and her hands clasped in front of her. To her right we see a small window (framed as a mirror), with a crescent moon looking in, as a butterfly hovers near on corner. From the calendar:
High Priestess - The Moon - Cancer
The blues in a butterfly wing, a faded Chinese carpet or the deepening twilight sky, all evoke the aura of this strange and enigmatic woman. sliver of crescent moon framed in the window like a winking eye, leads us to the quiet blue realm of deep knowledge that is home to the mysterious High Priestess. Blue is also traditionally the color of water, a salty teardrop linking us to each other and to the vast oceans, rendering the earth an indigo marbled jewel. Int he meditative environment we can marvel at this connection. If we can "hold that thought" and take it out into the world, there is potential for transformation. The High Priestess is flanked by two stone faces; mirrored images yet polar opposites, their expressions caught in the "in-breath" and "out-breath" respectively, symbolizing both introspection and action.
- Leslie Cochran
Another lovely piece of artwork is The Wheel (December), again from Arnell Ando. Here we see a dark haired lady, dressed in a flowing lavender gown. She is seated in a light lavender chair, with a card in her hand and a large cat at her feet (yes, this really is a Siamese cat!). There is a large wheel behind her on the wall, with sections for Fate, Luck, Chance, Choice, Wish, Karma, Lose, and Win. In the background there is a table containing a lighted candle, a luminous globe, a black circle with the number eight on it in white, and what appear to be cards falling off of the table. the title at the top of the page states: "Presenting Fortuna, Our Lady of Destiny". From the calendar:
The Wheel of Fortune - Jupiter & Sagitarius (December)
The Wheel of Fortune visited me in a dream of a mysterious dark-haired teller of fortunes. I thought that I had better pay my respects and make this special tribute in her honor, on the chance that she came as a premonition for either you or me ... In the image she has drawn the Wheel of Fortune card, and holds it along with our fate in her hands. All around her are tools of deciphering the future. Would you take a spin on the wheel if it could land on any destiny? Would you risk what you have now for this turn of fate?
- Arnell Ando
There is so much more to see in this calendar - the depiction of Hell's Kitchen on the Devil, the Victorian era woman depicted on the Tower, and the large sleeping Black Bear depicted in the Hermit. This is a calendar to admire, as well as to learn from.

(HealthDay News) — For patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), isocaloric diets high in animal protein (AP) or plant protein (PP) are associated with similar improvements in metabolism and cardiovascular risk factors, according to a study published online in Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism.
Stephanie Sucher, from the German Institute of Human Nutrition Potsdam-Rehbruecke in Nuthetal, and colleagues compared diets differing in amino acid composition in 44 patients with T2DM. Isocaloric diets containing 30% of energy as AP or PP, combined with 30% fat and 40% carbohydrates, were compared in a randomized parallel group study.
The researchers observed significant decreases in uric acid in both groups, but significantly more in AP versus PP. There were significant improvements in hemoglobin A1c, diastolic blood pressure, and fasting non-esterified fatty acids in PP but not AP. There were significant improvements in AP but not PP for insulin sensitivity, C-reactive protein, and fasting glucose. In both groups, total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol decreased significantly, and there was a decrease from baseline in urinary albumin excretion rate in microalbuminuric subjects.
"Isocaloric diets high in animal or plant protein allow similar improvements of metabolism and cardiovascular risk factors in T2DM patients indicating that the differences in amino acid composition do not affect the metabolic responses to the interventions," the authors write.

Special Patient Population Recruitment Tool for Global Drug Development
COSTA MESA, Calif., February 25, 2013/PRWeb/–WCCT Global, a contract research organization (CRO) supporting Phase I – IV biopharmaceutical and medical device development, announces today the roll-out of their innovative special population Recruitment Management Tool (RMT) for early and late phase clinical studies and global drug development. Recruiting the right participants into a clinical trial is a fundamental and essential element for success that easily gets overlooked. WCCT Global has built a cutting edge recruitment tool in order to meet the needs of sponsors who have studies either competitively or non-competitively recruiting in any region of the country.
The WCCT Global RMT consists of a proprietary algorithm which combines multiple web technologies which enables recruiters to target specific patients needed for any project. Any geographic region or diagnostic category can be targeted. The recruiters can be centrally located while recruiting nationally, thus, expending fewer resources and reducing overall recruitment times. WCCT is likely to save sponsors anywhere between 15 and 20 percent in costs not only because of their advanced patient recruitment strategy, but because of their combined clinical trial project, data, and site management expertise.
Lee Barsky, Vice President of Program Management said, "I truly believe our new special population recruitment tool is raising the bar for all Contract Research Organizations' recruitment efforts. We are now able to precisely target the required resources to recruit specific patient populations anywhere in the US in record time." WCCT Global has been able to successfully screen and randomize multiple special population clinical studies including Asian-bridging studies, difficult asthma studies, ophthalmology studies, and infectious disease studies using this recruitment management tool and feels it is a must have for every clinical trial. WCCT looks forward to using their special population recruitment strategy for rare diseases and indications, in order to advance global drug development for these very rare and difficult to treat conditions. It is in this way that the CRO's special population recruitment methods can contribute to a much larger mission of drug development for patient populations that need more effective treatments the most.

A beautifully designed enchanting mobile by Djeco, this features a colourful birds theme. The mobile shapes are made in plastic hanging from plastic coated wire. It is light weight and partly assembled. Instructions on how to complete and hang the mobile are included and are simple to follow.
Code: DD04311
Customer Reviews 3.0 5 3.0/5 Based on 2 reviews
light safe mobile for nursery Reviewed by Anonymous on 17 Apr 2013
I really like the look of the mobile and like that it is not too heavy and therefore not a hazard if it falls- though seems to stick securely to the ceiling. A bit difficult to assemble- definitely assemble on a flat surface, that makes it easier. Also, some of the birds that are not firmly attached on the end of metal attachments can slide and cause the mobile to get off balance, but this can be corrected. Otherwise, am very pleased with the item.
Pretty but tricky to assemble Reviewed by giftshopper on 30 Nov -0001
The mobile was quite flimsy and tricky to assemble. Even after following the instructions carefully it did not seem to balance properly. The birds are sturdy and beautifully coloured but the structure could have been better. That being said, we hung it anyway and our niece loved it.

The SR-30 takes advantage of the .300BLK cartridge, enabling a 9.5" barrel to be as capable as an 11.5" 5.56mm SBR. The Mod 2 gas block is secured with a locking ring, which results in a more rigid barrel due to the elimination of taper pin grooves, and removes the need for individually fit gas blocks. An improved E3 round-lug bolt design enhances function and increases bolt life far beyond the industry standard. The URX 4 handguard reduces weight through use of negative-space mounting systems and an integral barrel nut. An ambidextrous bolt release, selector and magazine release offer left-handed users the ergonomic advantages inherent to AR-15 based controls. This also provides the right-handed users alternative methods of manipulation to increase efficiency of movement. The drop-in 2-stage trigger serves double duty as an aid to precision marksmanship while enabling surgical speed shooting at close range. KAC QDC-supporting muzzle devices are included, and the rifles are ready to host a suppressor with no permanent changes needed to ensure long-term reliability. Receiver end plate with ambidextrous QD sling swivel sockets, 6-position collapsible stock, fully ambidextrous lower receiver controls, extended charging handle latch, folding front and 200-600 meter rear micro sights are standard features of the SR-30. This is a two stamp rifle, please contact us for questions or details.

Will Wilkinson's response to Bryan Caplan's call for examples of the "libertarian penumbra," or views held by many libertarians which have little to do with liberty, is on the money:
I'll add patriotism and an inclination to traffic in bullshit evolutionary psych just-so stories, especially the bullshit just-so stories that rationalize sexist norms. I thought about mentioning blindness to the liberty-limiting aspects of structural discrimination, but this seems more like incoherence in the libertarian core, not non-liberty-related libertarian conventional wisdom.

Dr. Keisha McIntosh Allen
Now Assistant Professor of Education at UMBC
Dr. Keisha McIntosh Allen, alumna of Hampton University, received her Ed.D. from Teachers College at Columbia University in the Department of Curriculum and Teaching. She engages in critical research across the fields of curriculum theory, cultural studies, and teacher education. Specifically, she is interested in the ways in which existing knowledge systems support or constrain historically marginalized students', particularly Black male youths', opportunities to learn. Through the lenses of identities-in-practice and critical race theory, she examines the ways in which youth's identities are supported and constrained by Discourses such as curricula and the ways in which asset-based,culturally sustaining pedagogies influence how youth view themselves as learners and critically engaged members of society. She also theorizes how the knowledge systems teachers operate within support their identities as anti-racist, critical educators.
Dr. Nkiru Nnawulezi
Now Assistant Professor of Psychology at UMBC
Dr. Nkiru Nnawulezi earned her Ph.D. in Ecological-Community Psychology from Michigan State University. Her interdisciplinary program of research broadly integrates empowerment theory, organizational behavior theories, intersectionality, and the social-ecological model in order to understand the factors that promote or hinder the well-being of survivors who experience gender-based violence. She is primarily interested in exploring how social identity and culture influence Black women survivors' disclosure and help-seeking practices, as well as determining ways to improve how formal support systems and communities respond to survivors. Dr. Nnawulezi has secondary research interests in organizational diversity and inclusion, critical pedagogy, white racial identity, program evaluation and transformative mixed-methods. As a postdoctoral fellow, she plans to publish manuscripts from her dissertation exploring how the construction of domestic violence shelter contexts contributes to survivor empowerment. She will also begin a new collaborative projects examining violence against Black women.

Perfect dress for this dignified and happy occasion, and lovely hair!! I love it when Maxima dials down the crazy while dialing up the glam! She looks amazing here.ReplyDelete
That is a fabulous dress! And her hair looks fantastic. Great earrrings. When Maxima puts it all together, she's amazing.ReplyDelete
I am probably old fashioned but I don't like that heavy belt on the light flowing dress!ReplyDeleteReplies
Neither do I!Delete

So then I am old-fashioned too. I don't like the belt.Delete
it would not be Maxima style if something was not over the top 😃 in this case the big belt works in her favorDelete

Nice dress for a concert,especially for Liberation day to remember a very dark time in History.ReplyDelete
Wow wouldn't Maxima look wonderful if she cut her hair short into a bob?ReplyDelete
amazing dress and shoesReplyDelete
Beautiful! When Maxima shines, she really shines. Perfect from head to toe.ReplyDelete
Divino vestido y complementos. pero ese cinturón le quita elegancia al vestido tan espectacularReplyDelete
I do love this Cinderella look. The accessoires are classy and her hair is wonderful. It is in bob length, I am sure, a bob could do wonders to her.ReplyDelete
Beautiful and flattering dress. The belt seems a bit too out of place. Just because it is a fashion trend, doesn't mean it looks good.ReplyDelete
