Honey Glazed
It takes time for anEnglish boxwood to make itself noticed,
Like a big fish that goes deep when everything is on fire.
The land surrounding the tent was all pages from a book –
A rare edition bound in vellum and gold, something you would
Swipe, a four-hundred-year old five find, in a cardboard box
At a stoop sale. Excuse my distraction. They are having a party
Above me and snippets sift down blown like black knives.
I am hurt at not being invited. But you say can you blame them.
A lady in distress said, "You're good with the vigilante groups."
I told her I knew the meaning of her words. She had her car
Handles torn off the night before. They had been tormenting her
For twelve years. I told her how sorry I was and ordered
A half-pound of turkey. Things are turning discursive
Here and there after fourteen years here in the city. I resist
Like a golden retriever spitting out a banana. I have nearly
Counted all the little black holes on the wall.
May it Serve You Well
I had too much cake, and I'm all sugared up.
Her accent gave her origin away – a lass in red.
The troubadours couldn't keep their distance,
A touch was like the watercolors of the distance.
You swallow what you are dying to ask:
Do you really not notice us? Does the pomade
You told the magazine you like
Not catch your eye in what you call real life.
You are the littlest one in the cast and feign
To divine the show engulfing all your admirers.
We brush it off, pretend that we are not your suitors
When the real action is the hope for your hand.
When word got out, the guard locked me away
In solitary confinement in the Red Castle's basement.
Nothing soft to huddle with, no one to confess to
Just these petty crimes that make you softly laugh.

Benefits open enrollment starts next week; watch for enrollment guide
Employees should watch for the delivery of their Enrollment Reference Guides as open enrollment for 2012 benefits gets under way next week. To enroll, employees will sign on to EBenefits, the online benefits system that was introduced last year. Enrollment ends Nov. 24.
A key goal in designing medical plan options for 2012 was preserving choice for employees. With this in mind, the University opted to continue the Copay Plan, even though it costs the University more than the Choice Fund with HSA and Incentive plans do. However, the premiums for the Copay Plan will increase by 30 percent, reflecting the higher claims cost of this plan.
Employees covered by the Copay Plan may wish to consider enrollment in the Choice Fund with HSA or Incentive plans, which both offer a lower premium for 2012 than Copay Plan participants have paid in 2011.
Employees will continue to be able to use the lab of their choice, but services through preferred, Tier 1 labs will be paid at 100 percent by the Incentive and Copay plans, while services at other labs will be paid at a lower benefit.
A tobacco-user additional premium will apply to all 2012 medical plans. Non-tobacco users can avoid the additional premium by certifying their tobacco-user status within EBenefits while completing the enrollment process. Tobacco users have the choice to avoid the additional premium by completing an approved tobacco cessation program.
PayFlex will be the new administrator for health care and dependent care flexible spending accounts (FSAs). PayFlex will process FSA claims within two business days and will offer enhanced technology, such as a mobile app for smartphones.
For more information about these and other changes for 2012, refer to the recently distributed Choose Well, Live Well newsletter, the Enrollment Reference Guide that will be mailed next week or the Benefits website at www.purdue.edu/benefits, beginning Monday (Oct. 24). These resources also provide instructions for using EBenefits, plus information on presentations, walk-in labs and other assistance available during open enrollment.
Important to note:
* Employees who do not certify non-tobacco-user status through EBenefits will be considered tobacco users, which will affect what they pay for Purdue medical insurance for themselves and their covered spouses/SSDPs and what they pay for any additional employee term life insurance they may carry.
* EBenefits will be available for 2012 open enrollment through midnight on Nov. 24.

We have been making big changes in our main living area of the house and now I am finally getting around to sharing some photos of our updates. I think it's really interesting to see how our needs have changed and how the space has developed over time. The first thing I wanted to show off are the awesome built in stairs that Eric made for under our staircase!
This is a project we have been wanting to do since we moved in. The previous space under the stairs was inaccessible and basically unusable and a waste of space. We had some bookshelves stuck back there but we really couldn't get to them and they didn't give us as much storage as we wanted. The new built in shelves are very wide and very deep and allow for plenty of storage for our games and extra kitchen goods.
The top section of the shelves will one day be a reading nook for Echo but for now it's a place to hide the cat food so Echo can't eat it (babies love to eat cat food, don't ask me why).
In order to be able to access the shelves we had to do a little furniture rearrangement and this is the new setup. It is a much cozier arrangement and allows for better conversation and a better spot to sit by the fire since the furniture is closer together now. We even found a nice little nook for Echo's easel and her little rocking chair.
The area by the front window has changed too since we swapped out the round table that was in this corner with the rectangular table that used to be in the dining room. Eric is now using this corner as his work desk for when he works from home. It's great because he has a lovely view out in to the front yard and plenty of light. He also sold his IMac and works exclusively on his new Chrome Book and his Ipad so he doesn't need much room. We almost never use the loft now because we have pretty much stopped watching tv altogether and Echo hates being confined in the small space up there, preferring to have free reign of the whole house. The consequence of this is that we are using our "formal" living room a lot more now and not really spending much time in the the loft. Plans for how to revise the loft space to make it more usable are in the works though.
We got a cool new firewood holder so we can have dry wood inside and it fits nicely with the new furniture arrangement (it needs to be filled up more though!). The house is starting to feel like a greenhouse because I had to move so many plants inside to save them from the freezing weather but it makes everything feel a little fresher and greener so that's nice.
Here is a picture of the new dining room arrangement. I actually think the round table fits better in this space. Unfortunately this area wasn't very clean for this photo, oh well.
I also felt the need to change out the art on the dining room wall so I got a huge poster sized print of one of my photographs and framed it for this wall. I'm loving the updated look. The glass in the frame is a little too reflective though and messes with the photograph, I'm working on a solution to this. I'm moving the art that used to be on this wall up in to the loft where I'm making a gallery wall.
Here is an aerial view of the new downstairs space. Sometimes I think it really helps perk up your spirits to rearrange and redecorate a space. I think this is just what we needed and we are appreciating our house in a whole new way now.

Bible Study from Calvary Chapel Newberg
with Tom Fuller
How's Your Reception?
Luke 11:14-36
There were plenty of questions about Jesus of Nazareth when He walked the earth. One thing was not in question, and that He was powerful. No one could deny His ability to heal, raise from the dead, and even take control of the uncontrollable—the demons who possessed people. The two main questions that remained unanswered to many Jews were: where does Jesus get this power, and if He is powerful enough to be the Messiah, Shouldn't He prove Himself beyond a shadow of a doubt?
You see, Jesus went about talking about God's kingdom in story form—He didn't out and out claim to be God's Messiah. And He went about demonstrating God's kingdom in action—simply speaking to the creation, which had to obey Him.
People were really starting to take Him seriously, but that raised in their minds a dilemma. Especially among the Jewish leadership who either had to disprove His bone fides as coming from God, or they needed to bow down and worship Him. So right after Jesus declares that those who shamelessly seek God will from God receive His Holy Spirit, certain people begin to question the source of the Spirit that Jesus operated through—and demanded that He prove who He was to their satisfaction. At issue is Jesus' authority. Let's see how it unfolds:
14 – 16
It's interesting to me the matter of fact way in which Luke presents this miracle. Here a demon has hold of a person so much so that he is prevented from speaking. Jesus drives the demon out and the man speaks and the crowds are amazed. But the amazement is also polarizing. For some, they begin to question the source of Jesus' power—and thus can avoid making a decision about Him. For others, they want more—though the reference is vague here, it appears that they were looking for some sign in the heavens.
Not ready to acknowledge that Jesus is acting from God, they cannot deny the miracle so they deny its source. Beelzebub means "The Lord of the Flies" and is derived from Ba'al, a Canaanite fertility god who had become associated with Satan.
So Jesus answers both assertions. First he takes on those who believe the power He wields comes from Satan and then really this sets up the battle of the superpowers.
17 – 23
Jesus challenges those that think His power is coming from Satan to really think about what that would mean. Satan will not work at cross-purposes to himself. Throwing out a demon is coming against Satan's work directly. Secondly, Jesus challenges them to think about not only Him but others who also are driving out demons. Jesus probably has in view here His disciples, who were given power over demons in Chapter 10. They will judge the Jewish leaders because they heard and understood that Jesus had come from God, not Satan.
So if the power is from God then they had better pay attention. Jesus says two things we can conclude. 1) This is the "finger of God" which is a reference to Exodus 8:19 when God caused gnats to break out on man and beast in Egypt. The Egyptian magicians could not counterfeit this miracle and so they said it was the "finger of God." Satan is allowed so much power, but there are limits, and ultimately Jesus is stronger by far. 2) Jesus says they've got to realize that the kingdom of God is here.
The struggle between light and darkness, the forces of God and the forces of Satan is at hand—and Jesus, like the stronger superhero, can come in, bind up Satan and steal people he has enslaved to a mind that is opposed to God. So if you are not getting in line with Jesus' mission—if you are holding back and saying He isn't from God, you are in effect scattering instead of gathering.
So then Jesus goes on to speak of the dangers of not making a decision.
24 – 26
In essence Jesus is saying that if presented with the way out of slavery to Satan a person then decides to not put their allegiance onto the Messiah—the forces that blinded them in the first place will come back with a vengeance and it will be that much more difficult for the person to respond to the gospel. Hearing the gospel and rejecting it is far worse than never having heard it at all!
27 – 28
I guess perhaps this woman was trying to reframe the debate about who Jesus was by focusing on His birth and His family of origin. But Jesus provided it as another opportunity to talk about the importance not of being born into a certain family, but having open ears to what Jesus is saying.
So now Jesus moves to the second major opposition—that of demanding a sign from heaven.
29 – 32
The people wanted Jesus to do something miraculous and big—like call down fire from heaven or show some big heavenly sign. Jesus points them back to history and how people who were not Jewish responded to God's messengers. Jonah was called by God to preach to the Assyrians in Nineveh. He refused, so got swallowed by a big fish and barfed up on the beach three days later. He then wisely went and preached judgment to the Ninevites. They repented (at least for a while). The Queen of Sheba had heard of the wisdom of David's son Solomon and so she came to see if it was true. It so blew her away that she said "I was not told even half" (1 Kings 10:7). In both of these incidents the non-Jewish person responded to the word of God in its wisdom and judgment. But among them now someone greater than Jonah or Solomon was present, and yet even the Jews were rejecting Him. He came preaching with great wisdom and speaking of God's judgment against sin, but their ears were more deaf than the Gentiles!
Jesus then finishes by warning how you hear His words.
33 – 36
Two things are at play here. 1) Jesus' words are light that is designed to be shown, and heard. It wasn't God's intent to hide what Jesus did or said. But 2) that light must also be received. If a person refuses to consider Jesus it is like closing your eyes to the light. What you end up with without the light of Jesus is darkness because, as God said of mankind, (Genesis 6:5) "every scheme his mind thought of was nothing but evil all the time." We are "evil" as Jesus Himself said in verse 13 of Chapter 11. There is no "inner light" that shines in us. There is no good in the heart of mankind. "All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." Without the light of the gospel we will move steadfastly away from God's value system into more and more evil.
I'm struck by something in this section—in verses 21 and 22 Jesus talks about a strong man who has captives and a stronger man who sets them free. As I mentioned, that is a reference to the ruler of this age, Satan, and the ruler of the universe, Jesus, who comes as a stronger man to steal us away. He does that directly here with the demon-possessed man by literally reaching in and yanking the demon out of the man—then encouraging him to fill that void with the light of the gospel. But notice what Jesus says in verse 22. The rescuer's act is to attack, overpower, strip him of his weapons, and divide the plunder. The weapon of Jesus is the gospel and the act of placing Himself on the cross to pay for our sins.
Jesus takes from Satan "all his weapons that he trusted in." So what are the weapons of the enemy that he uses to hold us captive? Let's look back at one of the few sections of Scripture that gives us some clues as to what happened to Lucifer that took him from blessed servant to arch enemy.
We find it in Ezekiel 28:11-19. The section is specifically a judgment against the city of Tyre and its king, but when you read it, there is much to apply to Lucifer as well.
Verses 11 – 15a tell us that Lucifer was sinless, wise, and beautiful (vs 12). That he had a place (Eden) and a prominent position (guardian cherub) and had access to God ("you were on the holy mountain of God"). So what happened?
- Vs 16: Radical focus on the self above all others. Greed took over completely. (this caused him to lose his position)
- Vs 17: Radical worship of the self above God (caused him to lose his place)
- Vs 17: Radical departure from the truth (light became darkness – did God really say?)
- Vs 18: Radical opposition to the Father, which will consume him and his followers forever (weeping and gnashing of teeth)
What are the weapons of the gospel? How is Jesus so much more powerful?
- Radical focus on others, a self-sacrificing love that led to His own death
- Radical commitment to humility (I am gentle and humble at heart)
- Radical commitment to the truth (I am the way the truth and the life)
- Radical trust in the Father, which consumed Him on the cross, but led to His victory
Though Jesus' weapons seem weak, know that He is indeed a super hero who can reach in and throttle the enemy whenever and wherever He wants.
So what else do we learn from this section? 4 more things.
- Don't rely on a sign to prove who Jesus is (forcing God to prove Himself to your satisfaction is like tempting the Lord)
- Don't rely on earthly relationships to understand who Jesus is (vs 27). Instead:
- Rely on what He says–that's how you understand Him (vs :28).
- Rely on what He's done—that's how you become related to Him. Know for certain that not only do you need to listen, but you need to act on what He says (vs 28, and the story of a demon leaving with nothing taking its place)

Original Review by Alan Rogers
Quand Les Égyptiens Naviguaient Sur La Mer Rouge (When The Egyptians Sailed On The Red Sea) is a French TV documentary from 2009 that follows American archaeologist Cheryl Ward as she builds a replica Egyptian ship (from around 1500BC) and attempts to retrace the voyage of a fleet of five ships to the mysterious land of Punt, thus proving that the Egyptians were a seafaring people. Directed and co-written by Stéphane Bégoin, the documentary, in typical Discovery Channel style, is a mix of following present-day archaeologists as they build a picture of events during the reign of Queen Hatshepsut (whose time as Pharaoh encouraged the establishment of trade relations) and of dramatic reconstructions of the period. Scoring the documentary is French-born composer Bernard Becker (El Guerrero Sin Nombre) who provides an interesting and effective score that is made up of two different aspects.
Becker seems to have decided to split the score into two different "sounds". One half the score has a particularly ethnic feel to it. Through the use of specific instruments (ethnic woodwinds, percussion) and musical style (melodies and rhythms), the composer effectively conjures up a sense of place both in terms of location as well as time. The opening track "Le Mystérieux Pays de Punt" highlights this, setting the scene for the documentary and the score with a breathy woodwind that plays out a seductive melody. The use of ethnic woodwinds and exotic rhythms is heard several times throughout the score (e.g., "A Bord du Navire" and "Les Portes du Temple"). A particularly effective use of the ethnic woodwind can be found in "La Reine Hatshepsout" and "Le Ciel d'Égypte". Solo woodwind plays a reflective, almost sad melody that seems associated with the Pharaoh Queen herself. [Read more…]

A common misconception is that hair loss is a problem that affects men exclusively.
Nothing could be further from the truth. While men are generally open about it, hair loss is a very much an issue amongst women as well.
In this series of posts, MyHeadcoverings.com hopes to make Women's Hair Loss more understood we hope to shine some sunlight and create a little bit of understanding of the wide variety of causes that go into Women's Hair Loss.
First off, it's true, men do suffer from hair loss more then women.
Statistics show that around 50 million men in the USA suffer from some form of Hair Loss. That's a big number.
However amongst women the number is also big. It's around 30 million.
Here are some basics you should know.
Every day a person loses between 50-100 hairs however there's no need to panic as normally the same number grows back. However, when something upsets the cycle your body may lose hair without the replacements coming in. The results?
Hair Loss.
What are some of the causes of this condition?
Well that's the point of our posts.
Lets start.
Some forms of hair loss are caused by trauma to the body, a child-birth or car accident or anything of the sort.
This form of Hair Loss is called Telogen Effluvium. And BTW, it can be caused by an anti depressant as well; check the side effects and you'll see hair loss is listed on most of them.
What this basically means is that the trauma, or certain drugs in the anti-depressant cause the hair follicles to go into the "Telogen" phase. Which means resting, as a result they aren't re-growing hair. The good news is that this form of hair loss is usually temporary and regrowth takes about six months.
For a woman experiencing hair loss who want's to try finding out the cause, well a starting point would be finding out if there's a good trichologist near you.
What that?
It's not a doctor, (though many dermatologists take the course),it's a form of dermatology that specializes in hair and the scalp; essentially a hair specialist.
One thing that most Hair Specialists will do right away to try figuring out what's causing trouble is take a hair biopsy in fact they're pretty simple they take around five minutes and are the gold standard in hair loss diagnosis.

Within music lessons, emphasis is placed on live performance and musical understanding. Pupils are encouraged to play a wide variety of instruments whilst studying topics ranging from African drumming through to the baroque orchestra. Pupils sing regularly as part of their class music lessons and all are given the opportunity to take part in productions and concerts throughout the year. Allowing pupils to explore their musicality through composition is also extremely important to us and each music classroom is equipped with eight iMac computers enabling pupils to hone their creative skills through using the latest Sibelius and Garageband software.
Each term has a department-wide theme which informs the area of the curriculum which is being taught throughout the age ranges and will be followed in ensemble and large-scale concert programmes. The three current themes studied in this academic year are; 'Revolution, War and Peace', 'The World; Explorations & Countries' and 'Shows, Festivals and Film'. Children experience a wide range of music ranging from Classical, Folk and Jazz, to, World, Choral, Pop, Rock and Musicals.

CM Punk cuts another master promo and The Wyatt Family dominates in their Smackdown debut!
Quick Results
Corpus Christi, TX
- Randy Orton pins Damien Sandow via RKO after Cody Rhodes distracts Sandow
- After the match Cody leaves with the MITB briefcase.
- CM Punk promo on Paul Heyman and Ba-Rock Lesnarrr! Punk is on a roll until Fandango interrupts him, dances on stage, comes down and gets greeted with an ass beating, followed by a GTS.
- Mark Henry & the The Usos defeat Wade Barrett & the Prime Time Players when Henry hits the World's Strongest Slam on Titus O'Neil for the pin
- Alberto Del Rio speaks with Vicky Guerrero in her office. ADR thinks he should be able to choose his opponent like Cena was able to. RVD interrupts, does his catch phrase, but gets denied by ADR. ADR says that RVD needs to prove himself to get a title shot.
- Damien Sandow is in the back looking for Cody. He stops and asks Sin Cara and gets pissed because Sin Cara just shakes his head like a mime. Funny shit.
- Alberto Del Rio pins Rob Van Dam via superkick while RVD was talking to the ref
- Sandow is still asking people in the back about Cody's whereabouts. He interrupts Mark Henry and Booker T in conversation. Sandow mentions Booker's loss of his GM position and Booker gets pissed. Henry tells Sandow to scram.
- AJ comes out dressed like DC's Harley Quinn and gives her "AJ's state of mind" address. She shows the crowd Dolph Ziggler's set of keys and says that she's ready to give them back and not burn his home down. Ziggler comes out and says he's passed out his keys out a thousand times and changed his locks a long time ago. AJ takes out Ziggler's suitcase and other personal belongings. Ziggler blows off all of her attempts to make him upset. AJ empties out the suitcase and ends up losing it. Big E Langston tries to calm her down and she ends up eating a HUGE Kaitlyn spear on the outside. Big E also gets dropped by Ziggler's Famouser.
- The Wyatt Family (Erick Rowan and Luke Harper) defeat Tons of Funk when
- After the match Bray Wyatt cut a promo. He talks about Kane and how he's always been waiting for him.
- Vicky Guerrero tells Damien Sandow that she's going to help him find his briefcase tonight.
- Christian pins Jack Swagger via Kill Switch
- After the match, Sandow rushes down and demands that Cody be arrested for grand larceny and that Vicky should fire Cody for being a thief. Cody comes on the big screen in front of the Gulf of Mexico and tells Sandow to come get his brief case. They follow Sandow as he heads to the outside. Cody makes Sandow beg and plead but throws his briefcase into the Gulf of Mexico anyway. Sandow jumps in water, claims he can't swim, then climbs out as the show ends.
Orton vs. Sandow was a rugged match. Lots of meaningful wear down holds from Sandow as he tried picking Orton apart methodically. Odd that Orton has never been the absolute number one guy in the company. His offense lends itself to him getting massive pops but for some reason is always second fiddle to Cena. I guess t-shirt sales and being the top Make a Wish Foundation earner is what really puts you at the top of the roster.
Another master promo from CM Punk. This is a clinic on how to cut an intelligent promo without using any catch phrases to get yourself over.
I still like monster heel Mark Henry a lot more than this tweener-face Henry. I suppose I'll be happy as long as he keeps kicking ass. At this point, they should just treat him like the Big Show and give him high profile feuds in the upper mid-card. The match itself was quick and entertaining. I hope the Usos don't go back into anonymity after their feud with the Shield runs its course.
We get our first RVD segment since his return. He did good and was able to get his catch phrase in there. I look forward to seeing RVD cut a serious promo for a serious feud.
Seeing Sin Cara in comedy segments would make me like him so much more. I think he should be paired with someone like Santino to form another comedy tag team.
I loved the chickshit heel stalling of ADR. The story of the match was that ADR would leave the ring any time RVD gained momentum. I hope these two wrestle again in the future. They barely skimmed the surface on what they could do together.
Didn't care for the AJ segment. I don't think the Ziggler-Big E feud doesn't need her to get over. People are dying to see Big E wrestle a quality opponent and they're going to get it with one of the best in the business in Dolph Ziggler.
I love that Rowan kept his lamb mask on until he was tagged in. Twenty years from now I expect the Rowan sheep mask to be the cool, obscure tattoo to get.
Christian vs. Swagger was a good match, which is what you can always expect when Christian is involved.
Didn't care for the final segment but I guess it's a Corpus Christi Bay tradition to do shenanigans like that.
Overall the show was okay. I'm disappointed that they didn't air the CM Punk-Fandango match that was mentioned in the spoilers this week.

My kids adore this youtube beauty. In English, I believe it translates to "chicky peeps." An entire song auto-tuned with lyrics about animal noises primarily the chick. You'll find yourself bouncing like you're listening to a Little Richard song. It's horrible, but cute, but horrible again then you hate yourself for smiling. But, I love the words for animal noises in other languages and this song runs through a whole lotta them. I remember vividly when I first took in this music. The internet was down. Brent was up early and flipped on some wee hour T.V. I heard a gummy bear singing from the other room something about le poussin piou. So don't feel bad. Enjoy.
Month: February 2013
Aromatic Bubble Wrap
The common blackberry settles in near trees and fence lines. When no one is looking, they grow and grow. They grow tall. They grow thick.
Some try hard to look like a tree, but I am not fooled. When the baby sleeps, I sneak out and chop those weedy pests into a soil enriching mulch. We're working on the "Yukon" paddock at the moment.
clearing after a meeting of the blade
looks like there were cows fenced in Yukon. Held in by using the lovely Oak trees
The blackberries seem endless reminding me of my favorite computer tidbit "perpetual bubble wrap." This bubble wrap is just as addictive as Asteroids but with a lovely smell while you clear the board.
As I hold my lawnmower blade on my hip, I think of the classic, pre-Rings, low budget film by Peter Jackson, Dead Alive. I say to myself, "I kick arse for the Lord!" and off I go.
please don't watch this if you have issues with cheap zombie movies involving gallons upon gallons of fake blood.
… and for your enjoyment should you not feel like chopping zombies … uh … blackberries with a lawnmower on your hip:
perpetual bubble wrap
Nutella Weather Station Says: Unspreadable
That's not a flurry of moths, it's snow. Nothing is sticking and I suppose by Midwest American standards, I should quitmabitchen. Brent has been doing his water hose draining routine ( whoa, that was not a potty reference ) to beat the night frost. So far, the water has drained and with a tweak here and there, the herd gets their fresh water. They don't drink much in the morning. Lately, they've been sleeping in, warming in the early morning sun. Brent, after setting up the temporary fences and rolling out the hay, calls them through and waits while they slowly waddle to their next strip of fresh green grass. I suppose they are not far from birth. Girl, I feel your weight.
Hello World!
We're back. The internet has returned. Though it didn't drown, it's disappearance was water related. A neighboring farm diverted flooding in their large chicken shed by digging a trench. A cable was cut. Our internet died. I saw some men fiddling with cables on my way home and told Brent. He went over for a chat and suddenly I heard my phone chirp. Then the green light of interwebular power breathed again.
Meanwhile, sun is shining and the grass is growing.
( photo B. Curtis )
Beef is coming!
I'm Convinced The Internet Drowned In The Gers
a race track in Vic
The interwebs are still a no-show for us. The men in hats came around and it no worky somewhere underground. Boo! We're not exactly sure what the fix is, but it won't be rapid. I think that through Brent's pasture improvement methods, water has finally found the means to be absorbed by the earth. An old cable that has not met these moist conditions cannot cope and has drowned. Just a guess.
a farmer's field that has flooded and spilled onto the road
Today is sunny. Tomorrow is sunny again. And then sunny and sunny. It's glorious to squint and be warmed by the sun.
We sit back and watch the grass grow hoping my shattered iPhone doesn't take another tumble or we will truly be off the grid, unplugged from the matrix.
kids after their picnic, climbing on the wood pile
Perhaps that wouldn't be such a bad thing.
Our Whacky Sit-Com Neighbor Has Found His Wings
… And he ( and hims ) shall take flight. Off to Australia. Back home, though this time, he brings a Swede. The malamute follows as well. A new adventure. Let's just say this out loud to remind him: Dude, where's the book? I've been waiting and waiting for CrappyBook Number 1. "Knitting In France" or "Farmer Spotting, How To Update Facebook and Increase Your Likes." or his children's book beginnings, "Cows Moo, Children Bother, Munson Poo, Ha Ha Ha" and "Willy Nilly Jennifer Tilly." Or perhaps his self help series, "Help, Some Lady Just Handed Me Her Baby and Doesn't Know The Cellphone Number of the Phone Her Husband is Carrying That Needs To Be Called Because The Cows Are Out and Other Ways To Empower The Power Within. "
Off they go and we will miss them. This farm, like any farm, is not our
venture absolutely. It is a life unto itself and as such, it takes in life and grows stronger. It takes the life and love that goes in and produces food for the people, the wild ducks, the worms, the cows, the cats, the mice, the fungus that links the grass, the clover and so on and so forth. These boys have done their bit. The farm marches on. Farewell friends.
If The Internet Suddenly Went Away For A Few Days, Would It Make A Sound?
This has never happened in the few years we've been here, but the Internet has left the building. It's gone, gone like sunshine before the month of may. I noticed its absence, but haven't missed it much because I'm forty with four, young children, a herd a cattle, a farm to help run and lots of set-up or pick-up work to get done. The Internet has always been by my side while I do and not do my work. When it's no longer there, I'm not upset or grumpy or wanky-righteous ( UGWR, Myers-Briggs rating ). I'm alone. I'm all by myself here in France with my family. Our farm. Our crazy renters in the villa. And our cows. And my cowboy. The cats. Tosca. The chickens. Okay, so not so alone, but the work I do continues, like always, and you don't know about it. Though you could should you pop over for a chat and some beef. Mr. Green is on, a glass of wine poured, book open, actually what's this "Internet" you speak of? Now if we can guess the next few days of weather, we can work out our work plan. The Internet is great and all, but when it's gone, wake up, look around and say "hey-yeah" to the real people directly around you. Despite what the interwebs say, this – these people around you – is called your " community." You might learn something. Or you might learn nothing. Or you might learn that you may or may not want to be living directly near your neighbors should the interwebs partir.
Our cellphone coverage is poor, so I'm standing in the middle of this field. It's gorgeous and yes, it's making sounds.
The worms are munching, the water is being absorbed, the crazy renters are gardening, the chainsaw in the distance is zibbing, the giant flock of birds are zigging, the camion is zagging ( must be the wine with lunch ), the geese are squawking and that gunshot? Yeah, I don't know what that was. Things are right in our part of France. Though my fingers are now too cold to register taps on my broken iPhone. Good day to you all in cyberland!

Just as technology has slowly permeated into every sphere of the industry today, it has also now made its way to the restaurant business, where it is mostly used by owners to manage and track reservations made by guests. Though this job was traditionally done by human employees attending phone calls and writing down the reservations in a planner book, there can be no denying that giving up this task to technology has had some astounding benefits for the industry, saving quite a lot of labor time and costs.
So where do ONLINE reservation systems fall in all of this?
But first, why are reservations so useful?
Reservations are a great practice followed at almost all restaurants in the world since they benefit everyone associated with the restaurant industry, from the owners to the employees, to even the customers. Reservations give the management a sense of how busy the day will be, and in the short term helps their staff prepare for a busy day, while in the long term it gives the management a sense of how popular his restaurant is and helps him think up ways to attract more customers especially on nights that are less busy to boost sales. For the customers, on the other hand, reserving seats ensures they'll be served at their desired time instead of having to wait if they were walk-in customers instead.
But there a lot more benefits taking this process online…
Having your customer's reserve seats online may seem like a deal that mostly for their benefit. After all, they no longer have to make phone calls or interact with employees to reserve seats but can get the task done 24/7 and in just a couple of clicks. However, the restaurant will benefit too, since moving the system online will make it easier to manage, accept or reject bookings requested by clients and reduces the time you lose on taking phone calls for reservations.
Nevertheless, how do you get started on online restaurant reservations?
Third Party reservation sites
A popular method of getting started with online reservations is to get yourself registered on third party reservation sites. The benefit of doing so is that since these sites already have a huge customer base that uses them as a search-engine-of-sorts for finding open tables at restaurants, your outreach is instantly increased. They also offer other neat features like planning calendars, a full booking system, etc. However, if their system is not fluid and top-notch, you could end up having to deal with customers on your own, not to mention that most even require you to pay hefty initial and monthly costs, something that not all businesses can afford to stop.
Google Adwords Click-to-Call feature
You could also rely on the Google Adwords Click-to-Call feature, a relatively cheaper alternative compared to third-party reservation sites. With this feature, whenever your advertisement appears on Google, a tap of a button will allow your customers to call you and book a table at your restaurant. Though no entirely an online process, it is still a simple, effective and popular solution.

Apple scored a major victory in court today against Samsung. And it extends beyond the $1.05 billion in damages the jury awarded the company for Samsung infringing on various Apple software patents. Any company that makes an Android phone should be feeling nervous right about now. In fact, they might want to consider ditching Android for Windows Phone.
"The jury found that user interface elements can be patented, and Samsung knowingly infringed on them – this should bolster Apple's case against Samsung and other Android licensees elsewhere," said Avi Greengart, research director for consumer devices at Current Analysis.
"If Google doesn't succeed in blunting Apple's IP with the patents it bought through the Motorola acquisition, Microsoft could be the big winner, Greengart continued. "Google distributes Android for free, but the IP licensing costs – from Apple lawsuits and Microsoft's successful IP licensing business – are getting quite expensive. If you're already paying Microsoft to build an Android phone, why not just build a Windows Phone?"
There's no question that Windows Phone needs all the help it can get in terms of market share. Ironically, Samsung, which already makes Windows Phone devices, may have just given Microsoft's chances a much bigger boost than anything Nokia may be announcing Sept 5th.
Not surprisingly, Microsoft's senior director of Windows Phone marketing communications, Bill Cox, tweeted the following shortly after the verdict: "Windows Phone is looking gooooood right now."
Carolina Milanesi, an analyst with Garnter, doesn't believe the Apple-Samsung verdict will change that much in the short term. "Samsung will appeal and then will go away and come up with a work around for those patents. Long term I think vendors will look at what they are bringing to market and will make sure to differentiate or pay their dues when that is an option."
In other words, mobile device makers will need to focus on making products that are truly unique. "Innovation and uniqueness should be at the heart of anyone's portfolio. This is what gets consumers to buy your products and at a premium and long term stay loyal to you."

Have you ever been in a place in your career or life where you just don't want to be? Perhaps you are stuck in a job that is going nowhere, or maybe you are in a decent job, but it just isn't what you want to do in life? It is difficult to transition to a new industry or job after one has built a 10 years career or longer in a particular occupation. You want to change and do something different, but that could present a significant cut in salary and starting at the bottom once again. Does this sound like you or a loved one?
Without a doubt almost all people rethink where they are in life as they approach a mid-career point. Some wish they could go back to college and start all over again and get a different degree or advanced degree to pursue an entirely different career altogether. Others know they are…Continue

I'm interested in getting into pharmaceutical sales and have the following qualifications:
1. B.S Biochemistry
2. CNPR Certified
3. Over 2 years of direct sales experience
Recent coursework with credits and certificates (will add to brag book) in the following:
1. Medical Terminonlogy
2. Pharmacology
3. Physiology
Some things that concern me are the following:
1. The sales experience is not Business to Business nor is it in a medical field.
2. I do not have awards for my sales experience because we are instead given more hours and small cash bonuses ( so nothing to add to my bragbook to prove my sales numbers)
3. I only have just over the minimum number of years in sales experience (just over 2 years)

My name is Derek and I have a very sincere and specific question for you. I'd like to explain to you my situation so the question comes off more clear and precise. I'm a 21 year old college student that is double majoring in sales/marketing. My freshmen year of college, I was striving to become an ER nurse, but changed directions the following year. I went into business, but knowing how competitive and social I am, I decided on sales. I reached out to any and all medical device sales reps that I could possibly reach (15+) of all different companies. Finally, I caught a massive break and was brought on board as an employee of a global medical device company.
I'm working alongside and getting mentored by a very accomplished manager within his distributorship. So for a year and a half now, I've been getting firsthand knowledge, and hands-on experience within…Continue

Nonstop2k is an emerging producer community that is running a new remix contest. You have three different genres to choose from: Trance (Rank 1 — L.E.D. There Be Light), House (Leventina — Night Shift) and Progressive House (The R3bels — Lifestyle). Good luck!
Here is an extract of the details:
Dear Nonstop2k members,
Hereby we present the very first remix contest of 2010! Just like last competition we have a blend of different genres to choose from. Since you guys suggested mostly trance tracks I have chosen the one that was requested to be remix most, Rank 1. In the hardstyle and house genres there were not so many suggestions, so I picked one of the 3 hardstyle tracks suggested, Lifestyle by The R3bels, and I picked the house track myself. The chosen house track is Leventina — Night Shift. This progressive house track has a nice trance-like melody and a steady progressive beat, which I think could be taken into many other directions. I'm eager to hear what you guys (and girls) can do with each of these tracks.
Happy remixing and that this year me be a productive year to all of us.
Listen the original mixes:
Rank 1 — L.E.D. There Be Light
Leventina — Night Shift

I like her dress for once but gosh she never makes it right for me. Those big half-sausages half-waves are exhausting and totally hide the style of her Nice and delicate neck line. And let's not talk about her accesoirizing: as dull and boring as she is. Plum with Plum on Plum. How many of those shoes has she worn in different colours?

The Duchess of Cambridge has a huge scar on her head due to a serious childhood operation that's why she doesn't like to wear her hair up. I'm amazed by the number of haters on this site! She has done for the British economy what no other princesses&queens have ever done in their respective country. She's beautiful,very stylish, classy and intelligent. She was a very smart student when in college, her grades were even better than William. But this is the role they want her to play so she won't outshine Charles&his freaking wife Camilla.ReplyDeleteReplies

Are you Kidding? What has she done soo much to her country that "no other princesses and Queens have Ever done"? She is the laziest of royal ladies out there, having had much more holidays than work done. What is the point of being so called intelligent, educated or whatever without having had a SINGLE proper job in TEN years before her marriage? If you are a Brit I'm really sorry for your country, because it is so unworthy of a future Queen to be only the one Who get the highstreet brands sold out in minutes because that's her biggest achievement for now.

|Come visit the Dead Acres Haunted Hoochie during our complete
calendar days of operation.
Over the years new buildings were added, and a non-stop supply of amazing skits and effects erupting with intensity. The Hoochie always pushed the boundaries of violence & gore, reinventing what is was to be a haunt, and coining the phrase extreme haunt. We do not disappoint. What does Hoochie mean? That was the question everyone comes to find out, but most leave with only more questions, primal fear, and wet pants. We are working hard to make you sick. Come visit us (Check our Hours and Times) at the haunted forest in Patatskala, Ohio.

Justine Coldwater drives the bookmobile! She talks about her sweet new ride (it replaced a sad old school bus), about her patrons, and the history of bookmobiles.
She drew the picture you see above!!
Original interview here.
Show Notes
49: Justine works in a moderately-sized middle-of-the-country metropolitan city as a bookmobile driver.
1:52 If it were the end of the world, Justine would drive around giving people books and talking about them. At the same time she had that thought, she looked on craigslist and found the bookmobile job.
3:35 Since Justine and I last spoke, she got a new bookmobile! She used to have a sad old bus that would break down.
4:00 No more holding her bus together with shoe string and chewing gum! They got a new bookmobile!
5:50 Justine describes the inside of the bookmobile. It sounds high tech.
9:15 They're out there four days a week.
11:35 The kids like the captain underpants books.
15:30 Justine has never felt unappreciated by her customers. Then we laugh at poor Dexter O'Connell, the referee from a few podcasts ago, who never gets thanks.
17:37 The new bookmobile was courtesy of an anonymous donor.
19:32 Bookmobile history and trivia… Bookmobiles started in the early 1900s!
21:54 They serve lots of people every month.
23:32 National Bookmobile Day is in April as part of National Library Week.
25:38 Justine has a huge following of German Bookmobile drivers on twitter. Follow her on twitter! @bkm_lyfe
27:58 Kid tried to hang onto the bookmobile. Gotta watch out for kids doing that. She went a little crazy on him.
30:30 She's not had any accidents but she has gone over curbs.
32:00 The old bookmobile went up for auction.
33:50 You could fit a mattress in the bookmobile aisle.
34:29 In Africa they have a camel library service.
35:05 The library cake. I'm not sure if this is what she meant…
36:22 Biblioburro – A movie about donkeys used as bookmobile in Colombia.
37:56 A librarian started a bicycle bookmobile in New Orleans.
39:37 The bookmobile exists because of the level of poverty in the community.
They have a little more flexibility in dealing with customers, lost books, late fees.
43:08 People know Justine so they don't feel embarassed putting 50 Shades of Grey on hold. Suzanne says I don't care what your income level is, you should be embarassed asking for 50 Shades of Grey.
Justine has shelves of dirty books. Straight-up erotica. Books with Fabio on the cover…
45:56 Fabio's face didn't get messed up too bad from the goose accident. http://www.esquire.com/entertainment/news/a43436/fabio-busch-gardens-goose-killer/
47:43 The bookmobile is the place for Justine. She finds the library itself to be a little dull.
50:55 American Library Association and Association of Bookmobile and Outreach Services if you want to donate!
Here is the Seattle bookmobile:
