Chapter one Gribble It was a bright sunny Friday afternoon in mid June when Bobby, and his best friend Joseph turned their bikes into the driveway of the Hill house. Both the boys as Joseph said " guess ill see you later dude " and rode back to the Gribbles house as he pulled his bike into the drive way he saw John Redcorn exiting through his parents bed room for year know he had known that his very seductively beautiful mother Nancy had been cheating on his so called Father Dale.
He parked his bike in the open garage as be headed towards the kitchen as he opened the refrigerator door and grabbed a gator aid his mother walked in wearing a blue pants suit that she usually wore when she was going to be doing a field report for channel 86 news a job which although she did enjoy she secretly wished for a larger role in news casting world but sadly after he ordeal in Houston where she had gotten drunk during a parade and been fired their after she would be stuck hosting a failing news program for the rest of her life.
It was this fact of her life that had driven he back into the arms of her long time off and on again lover John Redcorn. As she fixed her earring she told her son that she was going to be covering a special report at the Arlen university tonight and that him and Dale should just order a pizza for dinner.
She said good bye and jumped in the back of John Redcorns jeep and speed off towards the freeway before Joseph had even been able to say good bye. Joseph looked out the door at the smoke from the burnout and said goodbye. He stood their looking at the place where his mother had yet again decided to run off with her lover to her job yet again leaving him home alone, it was fine though because it wouldn't be to long before his beloved father Dale arrived home.
Even though he had his ideas that John Redcorn might have had something to do with his conception he would never be able to see him as anything more then the man who threatened his parents marriage and refused to leave them alone.
Joseph walked towards his bedroom to play some video games when he noticed that his parents bedroom door was slightly ajar he approached it very slowly some how afraid of finding the aftermath of his mothers adultery. As he swung the door open his eyes beheld a sight that was sadly a to familiar to the boy, in the hurried that his mother and her lover had been in the had barley thrown the room back together.
Joseph looked at it with an expression that showed both the horrible sadness that he felt for himself and his father, and a since of mundane boredom that yet again he would be cleaning up after his mothers adulterous activities.
Joseph reached behind his parents dresser where he had stashed a roll of trash bags he had hidden. He began cleaning the room throwing away the used condoms, liquor bottles, and off brand imitation Mexican cigaret packages that only the cheapskate John Redcorn smoked.
He began making the bed as he looked into the bath room and noticed that his mother had left her complete outfit just lying on the floor. He muttered to himself " she can't even try to clean up" as he picked up the blue jeans and pink shirt he then grabbed her bra and panties as he threw the clothes into the hamper his mothers panties had failed to make it into the basket he walked over and grabbed them and as he picked them up he noticed that they were obviously still wet with his mothers sex juices the young 14 year old held them mortified that he was feeling the result of the his mother infidelity.
The youths eyes began to fill with tears as he threw the disgusting worn and used underwear into the hamper and ran off to his bedroom and began openly crying and screaming " why does she hate me so much why isn't my daddy anof for her " he laid their screaming and crying for about fifteen minutes before he knocked the remote controls off of his bed and the tv turned on.
As he sobbed he began to notice the television it was on TBS and they were airing a rerun of ' miss. doubt fire ' and that's when it hit him if his mother wouldn't be the women in his fathers life then he would be the women in his father life. Chapter 2 the hills Bobby threw his bike onto the lawn disregarding his fathers request for the thousandth time. As he entered the living room he said hello to lucky and Luanne, and his mother as be headed towards his bedroom. " we'll hey their Bobby I got you a present " lucky said as the boy turned towards his room Bobby stopped and looked at his uncle lucky with a smile " what is it lucky another coffee can lid firssby ?
" lucky just smiled " why no silly I got you the new spider man movie I heard that you didn't get to see it in theaters so I though you might like to watch it now ".
Bobby held the movie in his hands starring at its pg-13 rated glory. " lucky thanks mom can I keep it " he asked in a obviously anxious and worried tone. " we'll as long as your father Doesn't find out I don't see why not " Peggy responded and before she could her a thank you the boy had locked himself into his room and powers on his tv and ps2.
Bobby sat watching the movie for hours before his father called him out into the livening " Bobby you've been in that god danged room all day why don't you go outside and throw your football " Hank said as he wiped the grease off of his hands with a terry cloth. " ok dad " bobby scuffed off towards the kitchen.
Hank looked at his hands he had just gotten off of his job at stricklen propane Jojake the head mechanic had failed to show up to work to day a habit Jojake had recently acquired.
This left hank to work on the trucks himself.
Hank didn't mind this just another job to be done for his beloved strcklen propane. Hank had spent the last 10 hours at stricklen watching buck take " client after barley legal client " into his office hank didn't think anything of it he would always see buck as his beloved mentor and father figure even though buck had since become a drunken womanizer hell bent on extorting Hanks dedication leaving him free to spread his crabs all over Arlen.
Hank was his hard working patsy and was happy as long as he got to see stricklen succeed. Hank walked to the ally to meet up with his life long friends Bill,and Boomhour. Bill was at one time a fantastic young man with dreams of escaping his abusive father and becoming a war hero in Vietnam sadly just as he joined the army they stopped sending in troops this meant that the army had a surplus of cadets and since bill had dropped out of high school weeks from graduation he wasn't able to qualify for their officer training program instead Uncle Sam decided that he would cut the hair of many a solider any of which were just as qualified to do his job.
But Bill was happy in the begging as far as he was concerned he had a wonderful Job and his long time girl friend Lanoor whole he had decided was going to be his wife. Just over seventeen years later Bill had begin to realize just how sad and depressing his life rely was despite never taking a sick day or a personal day he had only made it to Sargent barber a largely ceremonial position as he was still cutting hair in the same chair he had been cutting hair in for the last decade and a half.
His ex-wife had taken half of his things in the divorce that had left him a clingy depressed man who formed extreme emotional attachment at the drop of a pin. Boomhouer was the complete opposite of Bill after high school Boomhouer had decided to attend college and got his degree in criminology he got a job on the Texas state troopers as a homicide detective this left him working large stints of time working undercover and air issuing stuff that he could never tell his friends despite us multable attempts to brig it up sadly they only seemed interested in the workings of hanks life.
This combined with the crippling depression he had from the Grissom fatigue of constantly being exposed to the gruesome scenes he saw on a daily bases. He had recently taken up using crystal meth as a way to dull the pain.
They three men stood in the ally together as Hank spoke " Dale called he's going to be a little late he had to clear out the dead puppies from the mega-lo kennels " the other two men just said yeap, and mmmhhhmmm respectively.
The three of them stood their drinking Alamo and watching the beauty of suburbia. Back in the Hill household bobby was concerned about his fathers request to go outside. " mom dad wants me to practice growing the football what should I do " " we'll honey why don't you go hide out in mine and your fathers bed room and work on your prop comedy for a little while " " that's a great idea mom thanks " bobby said as he ram towards their room seeing Hank, Boomhouer, and Bill standing in the drive way as Dale walked into his house.Bobby entered the bed room and began working over his ruten.
Over the years bobby had tried to work his comedy ruten from a clean perspective but in the last few months the other youths in his class had grown bored of his acts of green beans in the nose and whoppy cushions on chairs and seemed more interested in what was inside each others pants.
Bobby had stayed up late the last few weeks watched fox and HBO to gain inspiration.
He had worked out several new routines he planed on displaying at the up and coming school talent show. But before that he needed a closing act Bobby laid on his parents bed thinking about Spider-Man and how he could be part of his new act.
Bobby the noticed something sticking out from underneath his parents bed he reached down and pulled a pair of red cotton panties out. " ah a superhero mask" Bobby exclaimed as he quit threw the garment onto his face and head placing it so that his eyes were facing out of the leg holes and the crotch was right on his nose and mouth.
Bobby noticed a slight smell from them but it seemed distant like it had been dissipating for several weeks. Bobby quickly wrote down a seemingly hilarious joke. At that moment Hank opened the door and saw his son standing on his bed wearing his mothers panties on his face " gwaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh " hank screamed as he passed out. Bobby ran to his father and screamed for his mother as Peggy came into the room she stopped and just stared at Bobby and knew that as soon as his father awakened their would be nothing she could do to help Bobby his fate was sealed.

Just when you think life is boring, something always comes along to make life awesome.
Simpson's character Ned Flanders has always been a staple in my life, and I am pretty sure my nickname of 'Ned' might be derived from him. So obviously, someone had to pay tribute to this religious neighbor, but in the sounds of HEAVY METAL!
Get ready for the name folks. This heavy metal band is called 'Okilly Dokilly' and they all dress up as the friendly Simpson's neighbor, Ned Flanders.
These guys have been getting recognition in Time Magazine, national news networks, and everywhere on the internet. But why?
In a sea of different types of metal, these guys sure do stand out of the crowd.

Wikiquote:Quote of the day/October 15, 2008
|A nuclear war does not defend a country and it does not defend a system. I've put it the same way many times; not even the most accomplished ideologue will be able to tell the difference between the ashes of capitalism and the ashes of communism. ~ John Kenneth Galbraith

Is it a strange urge
to go barefoot in church?
Although broadly ignorant of customs,
I know it's okay in some places.
In some religions it might be a condition
of entry, for a place of worship.
But I'm not sure,
as I say, a lack of education
and of a will to research now
to know, leaves me in the dark.
if stumbled upon and seen,
will I be challenged,
forcibly ejected?
"And why mister?
Why'd you want to go barefoot
in church, in the first place?"
it's a sensory thing
is all I can think, in answer
to this particular question.
In the usual manner
entering a church –
shoes and socks firmly in place.
I kind of absorb something
of the atmosphere inside,
and this generates feelings inside of me.
"Well what kind of feelings are those, weirdo?"
I don't know.
Feelings of calm and peace?
There is beauty in the construction
and decoration,
I touch a wall,
feel the stonework.
Admire artwork,
consider inscriptions.
Enjoy the
Even in a small church,
there is a lot of empty space around me.
Anyway, so I did it.
I found a church.
Empty, yet with it's main door wide open,
which felt symbolic for the matter at hand.
No one inside.
With antenna fine tuned,
able to hear the advance warning of
somebody approaching from the outside.
I felt safe.
Shoes and socks slipped off with ease.
Socks in my pockets (ankle socks)
Shoes, on the floor, near my shoulder-bag.
I walked down the central aisle.
I walked into the chancel.
I walked up to the high altar.
I stood and considered,
Reviewed all sensations.
Back to the nave, more wanderings,
then sat.
Felt confident.
And also more connected to the experience
than ever before.
Although, would I like it
if everyone walked barefoot
in church?

Above small birds chirp and big ones squawk
though they can't make the "s" sound.
Little blue ones and massive gray ones.
So instead it's a din of guttural but how does
their gut, their collective stomach,
of shrunken former monstrosities sing in varied unison?
A cardinal is perched on a wire
where there may or may not be current running
calling to no one in particular and everyone:
"I'm here! Hello?" Tomorrow will be new
and the bird will decide not to seek for mates
nor seeds, he will leave behind his trappings
of normalcy and become a prophet.
Not sitting on an artificial line but diving
upwards while screeching into the air
so that he can rain back down in particles
of nonsense, but perhaps he'll reach
far enough off this earth and sleep early
and never wake up again and become nothing
which is closest to joy he doesn't think because he can't.

"I love Italian food for its simplicity. Italian cooking is about bringing out the flavour of the ingredients as much as possible. When it comes to food sometimes less is more.
I now visit Italy at least 6 or 7 times a year. I visit my suppliers as well as favourite and new restaurants.
At ASK Italian, we've worked hard and put in thousands of hours in the kitchen to create an authentic Italian experience. I think it shows in the atmosphere, the sense of style and the Italian spirit that's present in the restaurants. And, of course, it's there most of all in the food."

Previous Challenge Entry (Level 4 – Masters)
Topic: Christmas Tree (10/09/08)
TITLE: Himself At Last | Previous Challenge Entry
By Beth Muehlhausen
A gnarled, stunted little Douglas fir skulks in the shadows amidst his neighbors: magnificent, soft white pines and well shaped, very proper-looking Norway and blue spruce. He feels like a misfit with his bent branches and gaping holes, and yet he can't help the fact he's grown up crooked.
Of course little Doug holds as many high hopes as all the other trees. Each time saw-bearing shoppers at the Christmas tree farm approach his row, he holds his breath, hoping beyond hope to become someone's special, decorated tree. Each time they walk right on by without even giving him a second glance.
The first weekend in December is busy at the farm. Family members shout across the rows: "Come see THIS ONE! Over here!" Or, "What do you think about getting a Scotch pine this year?"
Doug stands proudly, looking his very best with a fresh coat of flattering, soft snow covering his boughs. A special little topknot of snow perches high like a whimsical winter hat. Perhaps someone will notice.
A couple from the City visits the tree farm that day. The two, in their early thirties, take their time strolling the aisles as if window-shopping along a busy thoroughfare lined with shops. Finally Anna points with her fur-edged glove: "Look! Over there! That's the tree I want!"
Who me? Doug stares back at the gleaming face. Is she pointing at me?
"You've got to be kidding, honey. That's a Charlie Brown tree if I ever saw one." Ronald chuckles his disbelief and points out Doug's deficiencies. "Look – it's misshapen and leans to one side and has branches missing."
"But I like it – it has character," Anna insists with a pout. "The rest of these all start to look the same after a while. This one is unique."
Ronald laughs. Puffs of white breath tumble into the raw winter air. "Unique is it, then! Hand me the saw."
Doug winces at the first nick of the blade. This is the moment he's waited for and yet – it means dying to his old life.
Ronald pushes and pulls; flecks of Doug's precious sawdust pelt the ground. Doug bears the pain of sacrifice well.
Finally the deed is done. Doug peers at his stump, wondering how he will ever leave. "There! Let me shake the snow off so you can see your prize, my dear." Ronald bounces the trunk on the hard ground. With only a couple of thumps, Doug's snow-coat falls off to expose his nakedness.
"I love it!" Anna persists. "See the adorable little pinecones? And those empty spots here and there will be perfect for my over-sized ornaments. I'm telling you, this little guy is awesome! No one else will have a tree like mine this year. He's a one-and-only!"
Doug beams inside. He's been chosen; he has a purpose. And although severed from his roots, he still feels very much alive. What will it really be like to assume the identity of a decorated Christmas tree; to experience the life he's been created to live?
Ronald drags Doug by one of his stout bottom boughs to the barn. There, Doug endures the torture machine: a jerky, violent shaking to rid him of dead needles.
With Doug strapped to the top of the car, cut-end to the front, Ronald and Anna zip down the highway toward the City. Dry, wintry wind stings Doug's wound. Bound by ropes, he drifts into a drugged stupor, preoccupied by pain and thoughts of his impending death.
Eventually the car stops. Doug peeks on either side; nothing but concrete and more cars in sight. Not a tree anywhere!
"Let's bring it inside, honey – I want to start decorating right away!"
As soon as Ronald screws Doug into a dish full of water, his trunk eagerly drinks a cup or more. He feels refreshed and ready for whatever will come.
First, strands of twinkling white lights are stretched across his boughs. "Ha, I love this tree, he's just right for the season…just look at him all decked in light," Anna insists with nods of affirmation.
Elongated red glass balls emerge from a sectioned box to wear curvy metal hooks. "Drippy, blood-red and perfect," Ronald adds. "Hang them here, there, everywhere – he's covered!"
Doug stands as tall as he can, proud to be himself at last. His other earthly life was only preparation for this. Now he's a symbol of Perfect Love, a shining beacon calling hearts to come Home.

The NFL's streaming test of a London game between the Lions and Chiefs went rather smashingly last year, so it's planning on doing even more in 2016. The league will reportedly live-stream all three games scheduled for London next season and is talking with both Apple and Google about rights, according to Reuters. Last year's contest was carried by Yahoo, and marked the first time viewers could stream an NFL match of any kind for free. As a result, over 15.2 million viewers saw at least part of it, with 2.4 million watching at any given moment.
NFL talking to Apple and Google about streaming London games
Nearly 15.2 million online viewers watched last year's Wembley tilt.

Yahoo was able to sell advertising slots to 30-plus companies for $100,000 to $200,000, so the league called the experiment a success. Neither Apple nor Google have ever aired live NFL events before, and winning the rights to the London contests would no doubt be a promotional coup for their respective Apple TV and YouTube services.

The upper doors - all four of them - are sporting RH's Ephram knob.
It's looking great! I know first hand how annoying it can be to finally finish up those last few touches but they really make all the difference. We literally had our kitchen window unfinished for the past year after we renovated (year!) and I just this past week finished trimming, caulking, and painting it. So take my advice and don't procrastinate :)ReplyDelete
YES! You are so, so close. I bet it feels amazing that you can see the finish line. We went with the duluth pulls too in our kitchen - aren't they dreamy?!ReplyDelete
Gorgeous! I'm seriously in love with your kitchen... Can't wait to see the fully finished product.ReplyDelete
Woo hoo!!! It's really looking great Jenn. You must be so happy every time you are in the kitchen. I know I was and still am - best $$ we ever spent on our house. Love those pulls - they are very similar to the ones that we have on our drawers but ours are a brushed finish. Also love what you did with the stools - go Chris! And since you haven't trimmed out the windows yet I'm assuming you'll be doing tile to the ceiling which is SO very exciting. Yay for updates!ReplyDelete
Beautiful! You guys have done an outstanding job!ReplyDelete

The LG G5 did a number on the Samsung Galaxy S7's camera this year with its modular upgrades and in order to fight back, Samsung had declared that it would be releasing a modular lens cover for the S7 series of smartphones very soon. As promised, Samsung has now released the lens cover which will allow owners of the S7 or S7 Edge to enhance the imaging capabilities of their phones.
The lens cover comes with a tele-lens, as well as a wide-angle lens so that the user can switch them according to the need of the moment. The package including the phone cover and the two lenses are currently priced at around $120.99. Considering that a retailer in Holland had listed these covers at roughly $170 about eight weeks ago, the official price tag seems much more reasonable now.
You are probably familiar with how the lenses work already, but just in case you are not, here is some know-how. A wide-angle lens is usually used for capturing landscape shots or group photos. The telephoto lens on the other hand is ideal for shooting objects at a distance, for example, the moon. Given how much people depend on the cameras of their smartphones these days; this is an excellent move by Samsung.

Google announced before that it is developing a Smart Contact Lens prototype containing a glucose sensor. The US-based company had earlier said that this lens won't be available to the general public for at-least next five years, it now looks like the wearable device may hit the market before 2019.
This was revealed in a recently uncovered patent application that showed off potential designs for how the search giant could package a smart contact lens. When reached for comment, a Google representative said that product releases can't be deduced from patent applications.
For those who aren't aware, the smart lens can measure glucose levels by analysing the wearer's tears. It is capable of generating a reading once per second.

IS-M - Is Serb > Murazor?
PlanetaryGenocide posted a topic in RussiaI didn't find a thread for this tank so here goes. I've only played a few games in it so far and I refused to play it stock because lol 175 pen in tier 10 games nice meme. I'm not really going to go over the stats because you nerds can look it up yourself, I'm sort of looking for other people's thoughts and impressions on the tank itself. Do you like it? hate it? think it's mediocre? Why? Against tier 8's, it's hilariously good. The side armor is too thick to be overmatched by anything and nominal thickness tends to negate the damage you get from HE spam (which has happened to me twice). It's hard to over-angle when side-scraping since the extra T H I C C gives you a lot of wiggle room. The curved shoulders on the front are pennable if whoever you're fighting can aim for them, but there's a sweet spot angle that lets you both hide the shoulders and still poke your gun out around the corner, while bouncing everything that doesn't have 270+ pen. Turret is pretty strong and can bounce some crazy shots, and the single weakspot (the cupola) is so flat and tiny that hitting it is more dependent on prayers to RNG than on careful aiming. You can pretty much ignore any tier 7's or 6's that aren't derp guns or behind you - I've had full side-on shots get bounced before from tier 7 heavies and the like, so even if you're in the open just angle yourself a bit and you're p much good to go against lower tiers. This was my first match in it and all I did for 80% of the game was sidescrape off a building across the bridge in the south: In tier 9s, it's... okay. Against dumber players in 9's you'll generally have no problem baiting shots into angled side armor - the lower plate, of course, is butter, and anyone who knows to aim for the shoulders will ruin your shit and probably set you on fire, but the tank is new enough that it's not a huge issue yet. Otherwise, I generally found success by watching the flanks for our bigger guns in brawling zones and bullying lower tier heavies or keeping higher tier heavies constantly turning their guns to deal with me. Tier 10s are generally crap but that's standard tier 8 tank matchmaking for you. At least there's 7 tier 8 tanks on the enemy team to beat up on. I don't have a real strategy for this yet since the thing is too slow to face off against mediums and the armor doesn't work against most tier 10 guns unless you're lucky or the enemies are bad - generally I just play it the same way I do in tier 9s, but with a more conservative and cautious approach. My main gripe with it is that the mobility is a little low - but I guess that's expected with the amount of armor it has. It generally does reach its top speed on hard terrain (which is like, 35kmh i think) but you won't be keeping up with mediums or anything. Oddly enough I haven't gotten shot enough to get set on fire a whole bunch yet, and while the gun depression is as bad as expected I knew what i was signing up for with a rear-turreted tank. For crew skills, I don't have them memorized right now but I have a fairly new crew in this - I think it's Sixth/snap/ORD/safe and then working on repairs. Equipment loadout is Rammer/Vstab/Vents, I carry 20 AP/8 APCR/2 HE, standard consumable loadout of medkit/rep kit/AFE. Oh, and for the past week I had two 1500+ base xp games and that wasn't enough for an Ace. Fun stuff, clearly people out there are having a lot of success with it so far. What do you guys suggest for crew skills in the future after BiA and repairs? I chose ORD just so I can get to the brawl slightly faster, but would clutch braking be a better choice? Does it get set on fire frontally often enough to make taking Preventative Maintenance an option? How do you tend to play it in heavily tier 10 matches, or on maps where the gun depression or lack of hard cover works against you? e: lmao 504 error when I tried to post - now I understand how people keep double, triple, or even quadposting their new threads. RIP

The Apartment of Dr. Vogl
The interior
is a part of
Guided tour 1
: The Kraus´ and Vogl's Apartments
(10 Bendova Street and 12 Klatovska Street)
From the originally spacious apartment at 12 Klatovská Street which belonged to the Vogl family only a dining room and a living room have been preserved. The adaptation of the apartment based on the design by Adolf Loos was made in 1928 for Dr Josef Vogl, a paediatrician and his wife Štěpánka, who was the daughter of the house owner. The interior was created in the apartment of the previous realization by Loos from 1908. At that time, the design was created for the family of entrepreneur Otto Beck. Otto Beck later moved together with the furniture designed by Loos to the Müller's house at 2 Náměstí Míru. Twenty years later, Adolf Loos redesigned the same interior of the apartment for the family of Dr Vogl and this time he included a doctor's office with a waiting room and an X-ray workplace. Unfortunately, the medical part of the apartment was destroyed together with the bedroom and the children's room which were in the private parts of the apartment and which too, disappeared completely.
The preserved salon still boasts its decoration by the cherry wood veneer with built-in frames for Japanese wood-engravings and featuring the adjoining strip of dark green wallpaper. In the axis of the front part of the living room Loos created a distinctive feature of his designs - a fireplace made of red bricks, above it there is a mirror wall, the whole of which is then lined by half columns covered with shell marble. The dining room offers a view of the walls with a yellow travertine tiling and yet another mirror wall which is positioned above the buffet counter. The Vogls fled to exile to escape the Nazis, after the war they fled from Pilsen for the second time, this time to escape the communist totalitarian regime.
The preserved premises of their apartment then served as offices as well as a headquarters and a meeting room. The current owner of the premises is the city of Pilsen. The demanding restoration of the apartment was completed in 2014. Both rooms are now furnished by the exact replicas of the original free-standing furniture. The design of repairs and restoration was created by the team of architects led by Professor architect Václav Girsa.
Candle Holders
The swan-shaped candle holders significantly do not correspond with rejection of decorativims. However, Loos did not use them for the very first time in the interior. They were also installed in Vienna and Brno.
The positioning of the mirrors above the buffet table and in the side part of the wardrobes creates an interesting optical illusion and makes the room seem wider. Moreover, light reflections add feeling of luxury and shine to the room.
Adolf Loos was inspired by many things, even in a kitchen. An example of his inspiration is a dining room chandelier which is made of bowl for egg whites.

Why International Women's Day may never make a difference
8th March is celebrated as International Women's Day.
On that day being an active reader, I felt tremendously positive reading many articles and seeing videos which talked about breaking stereotypes, portrayed satire to bring forth the idea of celebrating women every day, heard about challenges like #bratoss by iiSuperwomanii and received many wishes on Whatsapp, Facebook etc. (It is free to forward memes and messages, so why not do it?). I felt proud as a woman and hopeful for a better tomorrow for womanhood.
But after much introspection, here I am dampening your spirits to tell you that Women's Day will never make the kind of difference feminists yearn for.
When we talk of gender equality, one thing that most of us do not know is that our societies were matriarchal during the primitive ages. Women were the martiapotestas ( or the final authority) of the household. Polyandry was quite rampant. The simple reason being: Maternity was a fact while paternity could not have been determined. Women had the ultimate power to bear children.
However, this period slowly phased out as the pastoral ages came about. The strength of men was discovered during hunting and gathering and the women did what they earlier were known for: bearing and rearing children.
But what makes those times and the current times different is the fact that women are not treated the same way. According to behavioral psychology, one of the most common socialization agents i.e. things which directly influence our mental processes and behavior is media. Flicking through various Youtube videos, I came across an advertisement that made it pretty obvious why we think of women as submissive and belonging to the private sphere even in the 21st Century.
This is a commercial for Aashirwaad Multigrain Aata with starts off by showing a woman's multitasking husband, 'multi-Raj', where he is shown to be doing ultra macho work like coming from the gym, holding a huge pile of books and going to the office.
Then the woman in the background talks about her multitasking son, 'multi-Sid', who is again shown to be doing ultra clichéd 'boy' stuff like playing football and skating…or basically sports.
What she finally wants to convey is that for her Multi-family, she cannot use normal wheat and thus uses the 'said' multi grain aata. But this is not where this idiocy stops. The child screams 'multi-mom'! Like any other person, I expected a woman to come and do various tasks. But then.
That's right. Each one of the moms was getting rotis (flat breads) for her husband and son, because why not? That is exactly what every woman does right? She belongs to the kitchen? She fights her wars with grease and dirty pans?
Let me enlighten you with some statistics. This advertisement is on Youtube. It is the same video in 7 different languages of India:, Hindi, Bengali, Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi and Malayalam. Each video has roughly 1000-2000 views per video. So a good 7000-14,000 people watched the video.
Let us focus on the youth in India. There are 1.25 billion people under 25 years of age in India. 25% of the rural households own a TV set, while over 75% of urban households own one. Accordingly, a literate youth spends on an average of 98 minutes daily viewing TV. This advertisement was only of 30 seconds.
Best case scenario? There could be 1 billion youngsters (excluding the middle aged, the aging population etc.) in India (excluding 195 other countries) who saw this female anti-feminist ad (and may have seen it repeatedly on one channel too). And that was only best case.
This is exactly how the masses are always influenced: indirectly without even knowing that this is unconsciously being grinded into them. And then people ask why we have been evolving (read: very much evolved) into a patriarchal society.
We ourselves were the one inflicting the wrong upon ourselves.
International Women's day won't create the impact we want because only one day is present to curb the effect against this continuous everyday influence of such damaging media. One day does not make a difference and cannot bring about a monumental change. Moreover such articles, videos, ads and messages rarely make it to many people as they are on the internet, which is less accessible and a newer technology than the television. That restricts the access even more. The scales tip in favor of anti feminism additionally.
However, this does not dampen the spirit of feminism in any way. It is really amazing what all is being done. I am not overshadowing or mocking people who are working for equal rights. In fact, now entire governments are taking a stand. (like Iceland's decision to guarantee equal pay for men and women by 2022)
The fact remains that what is being done against feminism is far more than what is being done for feminism. Instead of eliminating the former, we are waging a war which is not doing any good but only creating myths ranging from feminism being about women being bossy and assertive to feminism only liberating women at the expense of a man's ego. It has been a long time and a lot has been done but without any equivalent results.
Time we change the plan now.
So maybe we start reducing the effect of such propaganda that the media is carrying out, maybe we start at home with our closed ones, maybe we start telling others what feminism is, maybe we fight with our boss for a good pay, maybe we do not watch films that objectify women, maybe we start being little contributors.
Meghan Markle was just 11 when she became a contributor. Just by writing a letter she made a huge company like Procter and Gamble change their commercial. So what are you waiting for? She talked about it here.
Find a commercial like that.
You do not want patriarchy to win and for feminism to became a far cry.

Tour The Course
Hole 1
par 4 • 408 yds
From the tee there is no trouble on the left but plenty on the right. Aim between the 150 marker and the left edge of the fairway. Same idea with your approach shop – stay to the left to be safe.
Hole 2
par 5 • 572 yds
Split the left and right traps with your drive up the center. The right trap is tough to reach off the tee. Your 2nd shot up the hill should be on the right third of the fairway to avoid a difficult shot over the waste banker on the left. Hit your 2nd shot at far as you can. The green is very long front to back so pay attention to the pin position on your approach shot.
Hole 3
par 4 • 403 yds
A good drive will carry the right fairway bunker and leave an easy second shot. If you?re in doubt aim left of the bunker at the 150 marker. Don?t go long on the approach shot. It?s a long way down to the woods.
Hole 4
par 4 • 367 yds
Aim your tee shot at the tall pine trees on the right hill. The only problems on this hole are the four bunkers on the left.
Hole 5
par 4 • 399 yds
Your tee shot should go over the bunker on the left but won't reach the one on the right. Aim slightly left of center on the drive. The only trouble at the green is the front right trap.
Hole 6
par 3 • 199 yds
The green is huge, probably 3 club lengths difference front to back. Check your distance closely. Don't go right over the mounds and path into the woods.
Hole 7
par 5 • 511 yds
Any shot in the fairway is good off the tee. Big trouble too far left and too far right. Most 2nd shots will go in the pond if you go at the pin unless you're an ace. Follow the fairway around the left side of the big oaks for an easy 3rd shot onto the green.
Hole 8
par 3 • 167 yds
Watch your club selection for distance. Too long is never a problem here. Short and right will cost you a penalty.
Hole 9
par 4 • 491 yds
Hit your longest drive of the day here up the middle. Stay out of the mounded trees on the right. Now hit your 2nd longest shot of the day and you'll get home. Hopefully the winds not in your face and don't forget to take in the view.
Hole 10
par 4 • 396 yds
This is a split fairway. The lower right fairway is shorter on this dog leg right but the trees and a trap block your 2nd shot to the green. The best way to play this is put your drive onto or over the top of the hill at the 150 marker or to the right of it on a long drive. A long drive left of the marker may put you in the woods.
Hole 11
par 5 • 536 yds
Down the middle is the best plan. A drive too far right may end on the mounds. Never cut the inside left corner to close or you'll loose a shot down in the woods. Cutting across the 10th hole to reach the green is O.B. A long 2nd shot should come in from the right side as everything rolls down the hill from right to left onto the punch bowl green.
Hole 12
par 3 • 203 yds
Distance, distance, distance. Watch your yardage. Add one club for a mild breeze, add 2 clubs for a moderate breeze, add 3 for a stiff wind.
Hole 13
par 4 • 289 yds
The landing area feeds the green from left of right. A long drive off the green tee can get you on in one. A lot of people go too long to the left over the fence. No charge for hitting the barn or silo.
Hole 14
par 4 • 399 yds
Your tee shot should go over the bunker on the left but won't reach the one on the right. Aim slightly left of center on the drive. The only trouble at the green is the front right trap.
Hole 15
par 4 • 373 yds
Aim your tee shop just left of center. A small brook runs diagonally across the fairway about 250 yards out on the left and 210 yards on the right. A long hitter should use a 3 iron.
Hole 16
par 4 • 414 yds
Play this one on the right third of the fairway all the way including your second shot. Everything feeds right to left. Stay away from the left side traps all the way and the steep bank into the beaver pond.
Hole 17
par 3 • 223 yds
Add one or two club lengths to whatever you think you should hit here. Don't be embarrassed to pull out your 3 wood or driver. No problems going a little long. Most shots fall short on the hill or in the trap.
Hole 18
par 4 • 455 yds
Now that's a fairway. It's wide so hit your driver as far as possible at the 150 marker. Play your 2nd at the right ? of the green. Most shots on the right hill will feed down onto the green. Avoid the sand trap guarding the left side.
Course History
In January of 2008, Kettle Brook was purchased by the Marrone family of West Boylston from Robert Moss. The Marrone family has owned and operated another Central Mass golf course, Wachusett Country Club, since 1939 and looks forward to expanding the family business to include Kettle Brook. All five members of the Marrone family plan to work at and contribute their time and energy to both courses.
The golf course is built on 213 acres of land with a large portion of it surrounded by the Kettle Brook Reservoir owned by the city of Worcester. The land was purchased from a trust in 1996 by Robert Moss. The course went through the local, state and federal permitting process and construction began in 1997 under the direction of renowned architect Brian Silva. The first 12 holes were opened for play in May 1999 and the final 6 in August of 1999. The snack bar was built and opened in April 2000 and the clubhouse in May of 2000.
The land the course sits on is the former Juniper Mist Farm, which was owned by the Ahearn family from its inception in 1866 to its sale to a trust in 1986. A brief history of the farm follows.
Thomas and Margaret Ahearn arrived in the United States in the early 1860's escaping the great Irish potato famine. They purchased a portion of this site containing 35 acres in 1866, one year after Lincoln's assassination. The original apple trees were replaced by a variety of crops. The farm eventually grew to over 200 acres.
Thomas's son John transformed the business into a dairy farm in 1912. It became a well known thriving dairy farm for the next 60 years. The farm sold milk in Worcester through the depression and the two world wars. The family's dedication and hard work paid off well for the Ahearn family. The farm under the direction of John's son, George, breeded many prize winning Holstein cows. They were pioneers in the newly evolving field of embryo transplants.
The farm was shut down in 1986 and the cows were auctioned off, some at over $100,000 each and were dispersed all over the world including Japan and Sweden. George sold the land to a real estate trust in 1986 and moved across the street where he always keeps a watchful eye on Juniper Mist Farm.

How To Deal With A Pregnancy Scare
Alexandra Smith is majoring in Psychology, with a minor in…
So you think you could be pregnant, but you're not completely sure how to deal with a pregnancy scare. You may realize you haven't gotten your period in a month, had unprotected sex, – on purpose or by accident (condoms can break), or had a drunken hook-up and don't even remember if he used a condom. Either way, this could possibly be one of the most terrifying feelings you have ever experienced. Your heart beats a million miles an hour every time you think about it, and questions run wildly through your mind.
Would I keep it? Would I get an abortion? Could I do that? What about adoption? Could I do that? How the hell am I going to tell him? How am I going to tell my parents? The first think you need to do is take a deep breath and calm down. We all know this is every girl's worst nightmare, but there are ways to deal with a pregnancy scare without going absolutely crazy.
First things first, evaluate how you've been feeling. Obviously a missed period is a red flag of possible pregnancy, but for some people, their periods are always irregular and missing one is normal. There are other signs in the early stages:
- Nausea
- Fatigue
- Abnormal food cravings
- Sore breasts
- Aches and pains in your back, head, or cramping.
- Bloating
- Heightened body temperature
- Mood swings
In addition to your feelings, think about your recent sexual experiences. When was the last time you had sex? Does the timing add up? Did you guys use a condom? Is there a chance it broke? Have you been on top of your birth control and taking it when you should be?
sponsored link
If you have been experiencing any of the symptoms, and if everything adds up, it's time to move on to the next, and possibly most important step. Talk to someone you trust. It is not fun, nor helpful, going through something like this alone. Figuring out how to deal with a pregnancy scare is hard enough, you need someone to talk to.
Whether it be your boyfriend, best friend, a co-worker, a cousin, aunt, or even your mom, talk to someone about what's happening. Not only can they help you figure out how you actually feel about the possibility of being pregnant, but the support will do wonders to ease anxiety and the fear you are experiencing. It helps to have a fellow woman on your side. They will ask you questions that you are probably too nervous to ask yourself.
Once you've come to terms with your current life situation, it's time to take a pregnancy test. You can either go to your local drug store and purchase an at-home pregnancy test, or schedule yourself an appointment to get tested by your healthcare provider. Both tests measure the amounts of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in your body, however, the at-home pregnancy test measures the hormone from your urine, while the test done at your doctors office detects it from your blood.
Advantages & disadvantages of an at-home pregnancy test:
- Can be done at home and in private.
- You can buy as many as you want to be extra sure.
- Fast results (usually 3 minutes)
- More room for error because it can be done too early or incorrectly.

Advantages & disadvantages of a blood test:
- More accurate
- Can immediately tell if there are any issues with the pregnancy
- Detect pregnancy about 3-10 days after conception.
- Usually more expensive
- Must be done in a doctor's office
Once you take the test, and get your results, the pregnancy scare is over – well somewhat. It can either teach you some lessons about being more careful when you do have sex and making sure you take your birth control correctly. If you're not on birth control, maybe you decide that you should be so you don't have to go through this again.
The alternative is that your scare is over, but now you have to deal with the fact that you are pregnant. What's next?
1. Evaluate your options. What you decide to do is entirely up you you. There is no right or wrong when it comes to learning how to deal with a pregnancy scare. Whether you've decided to parent, considering abortion, or are looking into adoption, it's important to really think about what it's going to mean for the rest of your life.
2. Be secure with your choice. These are HUGE decisions you are making that are life-changing not only for you, but the people around you as well. No matter what you have decided, make sure you are totally sure before jumping in with both feet. You might think you're ready to be a mom, or think you can handle terminating the pregnancy or placing the baby up for adoption, but picturing yourself doing it is much different than actually going through it.

Whatever you decide to do next, you need medical attention. So, see a doctor about the next steps. If you need help from a professional to really decide and be secure with your choice, don't be afraid to reach out.

One aspect that makes the skull so popular is its versatility. By pairing a skull with wings, hearts or butterflies they can be given a feminine look, whereas teaming them with flames, crossbones or snakes gives them a powerful presence that portrays strength and bravery.ReplyDelete

It's heartwarming to see activists way out here in Hawaii take up the civil rights struggle being fought right now in the continental U.S. over statues that honor the so-called "heroes" of the Confederacy. Those particular statues don't exist out here, but that doesn't mean we don't face the same underlying issues.
The fight is not, as white supremacists are fond of saying, over erasing history. That fight was lost–both in the Mainland U.S. and here in Hawaii–long ago. Statues and monuments play a role in teaching history, sure, but mostly they just honor individuals and events that the establishment cherishes.
In the southern United States, that meant cities and towns wishing to push back against the Civil Rights Era erected a ton of statues to Confederates (the majority of the statues under fire today in the U.S. went up during the Jim Crow era as a way of both reassuring whites who were frightened that a true meritocracy–one devoid of any race-based calculus–was on the horizon and intimidating black citizens who wanted an equal say in society. Removing these statues now sends a powerful message that white supremacy was and remains vile.
The same is happening here. On Sunday, Aug. 20, a group of activists marched on McKinley High School in Honolulu, calling for the removal of the statue of President William McKinley that stands there.
"He led the takeover of Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Philippines and Cuba," said Khara Jabola-Carolus, co-founder of AF3IRM Hawaii, in this Aug. 20 Hawaii News Now story. "His legacy is painful for people of color in Hawaii and throughout the Pacific."
It makes sense that AF3IRM is so prominent in this action. As their website notes, they don't mess around.
"Hawai'i is not the playground of the new gilded age," states the AF3IRM Hawaii website. "We are a battleground for indigenous, immigrant, and women's self-determination. We focus on fighting for improvements to women's daily lives on all fronts including the legislature, the city council, the courtroom, the boardroom, and the classroom."
But I digress. As President, McKinley built up the United States as a mighty world power by exploiting the resources and labor of conquered peoples throughout the Caribbean and Pacific. Honoring him now is an affront to our modern notions of justice and civil rights.
Of course, we shouldn't stop there. If McKinley's statue should come down, then so should the various statues and monuments honoring Captain James Cook around Hawaii. I can't think of a more blatant expression of white supremacist imperialism than a statue of Cook (of course, the issue of what symbols to knock down is highly subjective: a friend of the paper, when asked what he'd like to see go, said simply, "Knock down Waikiki and return the kalo!").
At the same time, how about erecting new statues that honor individuals and events that have been whitewashed? It's nice that Maui has statues of Queen Ka'ahumanu (though it's in a shopping mall instead of public property) and the Chinese physician and revolutionary Sun Yat Sen, but how about one of David Malo? And while we're at it, put up some sort of monument in Olowalu to commemorate the 100 or so victims of the 1790 massacre there.
"Olowalu is special," Native Hawaiian cultural specialist Clifford Naeole told me in 2016. "Olowalu is a place with significance. But Olowalu as a place is not really recognized. It needs to have its own sense of place. There needs to be an altar, a temple erected there, just like Wounded Knee."

« NCTE: Gary Paulsen Speaks...For a While | Main | Video Break: A Differently Wired Generation? »
Should Schools Embrace iTeen Cultureor Counter It?
A somewhat polarizing article in the New York Times says there's research suggesting that kids these daysimmersed in technology that rewards small doses of attentionare hard-wired for learning differently than previous generations. The piece profiles a talented 12th grader who spends late nights making short films for YouTube and playing video games, and whose grades are suffering because of it.
Some educators are embracing kids' new skill-sets by incorporating the technology they use at home into the classroom environment. One principal "asked teachers to build Web sites to communicate with students, introduced popular classes on using digital tools to record music, secured funding for iPads to teach Mandarin and obtained $3 million in grants for a multimedia center."
Still, others fear the technology is ruining students' ability to concentrate. From the article:
"It's a catastrophe," said Alan Eaton, a charismatic Latin teacher. He says that technology has led to a "balkanization of their focus and duration of stamina," and that schools make the problem worse when they adopt the technology.
"When rock 'n' roll came about, we didn't start using it in classrooms like we're doing with technology," he says. He personally feels the sting, since his advanced classes have one-third as many students as they had a decade ago.
The article gives a nice glimpse into tech-filled teenage lives (including that of a female students who sends 27,000 texts a monthor about 38 per hour!) and is garnering heaps of comments.

Hemsworth was a diva about the helmet too, but Hiddleston had no issues.
He could have worn it for fight scenes and done without it all the other times. As far as the helmet in Ragnarok, it was cheesy as hell looking.
The hair is something that is b.s., he said in an interview that even his daughter didn't like it either; but guess what Chris..your daughter isn't signing your check.
All the actors of the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit didn't seem to have any problems doing what was required of them for their roles (i.e make up), but Marvel kisses his ass and gives in??? Seriously????
In regard to the directors, they should have stayed with Braunagh throughout and Dark World would have been much improved (especially Malekith) and we wouldn't have had the lame ass sitcom that Ragnarok was.

As usual, Peter DeWitt's pieces on his blog Finding Common Ground always have a way of pushing my thinking. His piece last week, Body Language: What Are We Telling Our Students, really made me stop and reflect on the various was that we influence and connect with students. More specifically, it made me think about the ways in which we are able bring kids closer to us without even saying a word. The more I thought about it, the more I realized that there are ways that educators can connect with their students without saying a single word.
High-Fives, Handshakes & Fist-Bumps
There is a reason that athletes do this before, during and after sporting events. It psyches them up! They say, "I am excited and I want you excited too!" They're quick, they're fun and they take less than a second. So start tomorrow and watch the reaction you get. I'm betting the kid smiles and returns the enthusiasm. And really, isn't that what we are looking for?
Walk Beside
Oftentimes at school we need students to walk with us from one place to another. If this involves a large group of students, then a line makes sense. But, if this involves one or two students then I suggest asking the student(s) to walk right next to you. Having a student walk behind you just doesn't feel right. It means that the student has to see your back. It also implies that the student is not worthy of you. Now I realize that there are times when students will refuse. However, most of the time, if you ask them nicely (I feel like Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men) the child will walk along side you. And that can make all the difference for the conversation that you are about to have with them.
Happy Eyes
Children know what we are thinking just by looking into our eyes. They have craved eye contact ever since they were infants and now they have become experts. The other day I was attempting to take a nap on the couch but my son was having none of it. What he said next was unintentionally brilliant (he is only 3). He said, "Open your eyes so I can see you." He had it backwards, but there was a hidden meaning there. If we don't have our eyes open, if we are not truly looking at our students, they know it. And they dismiss us right away. On the other hand, I believe it is important that when we do make eye contact, we do so with happiness in our eyes and a gentleness in our soul. Kids will know, and they will feel it.
There are varying theories about personal space and how close we should get to students. I am of the belief that students, children, want to be close but they don't always know how and neither do we. It is important that we show them that we are comfortable in their presence so that they can begin to feel comfortable in ours'. If they see us start to lean in, then they will do the same, literally and figuratively. They will trust us more and they will start to feel like they can connect with us. And isn't that what it is all about?
Just Being There
Finally, I believe that one of the most powerful ways we can connect with students is by giving them a time and a place to just be. No words necessary. No lectures or advice. Sometimes kids just need the security and comfort that our quiet presence can bring them. They often don't have it at home. They almost never have it at school. And yet it is sometimes the one thing that can help get them where they need to be. Sometimes a quiet place, with someone who makes them feels safe is all they need. We can provide this.
Connecting with the children we teach everyday means everything. If we can't connect we don't connect. About 95% of our efforts to connect involve us talking and them listening. While our intentions our good, I think sometimes we talk too much. I think sometimes we need to try some of the strategies above that don't require uttering a word. I think it's at least worth a try.

Picture: X Factor' final four finalists, Emblem3 aka E3, seen carrying their guitar case while Christmas shopping at the Grove Los Angeles, California- 18.12.12
James Arthur's single 'Impossible' has returned to number one after being beaten by The Justice Collective last week.
Christmas week proved to be a little less elated for James Arthur as his single 'Impossible' was relegated to the second spot in the charts, beaten by the charity single from The Justice Collective, 'He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother'. Plus, in Boxing Day sales his card was declined three times. Embarrassing! However, to bring in the new year he's right back on top with 'Impossible' storming back to #1, which will hopefully set the tone for his 2013.
According to the Official Charts Company, the single has now sold almost 900,000 copies and is the fourth highest selling first single of x factor history, beating Leona Lewis' 'A Moment Like This', from 2006, but being curtailed from the top of that pile by Alexandra Burke, Matt Cardle, and Shayne Ward. Only 400,000 more copies to sell before reaching that coveted accolade.
Coming in at number two in the charts this week was the single from Will.I.Am and Britney Spears 'Scream and Shout', followed by Psy's 'Gangnam Style' with its 19th week in the charts, and 'Troublemaker' by X Factor's own Olly Murs, featuring Flo Rida. Dropping right down to fifth was last week's #1, 'He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother'.
2012, the year of Emeli Sande, was finished with her album, 'Our Version of Events' ,at number one after 46 weeks in the charts. Having sold 1.4 million copies of the record, it becomes the year's highest selling album. X Factor is still doing well in that category with Olly Murs coming in right behind her at number two.

We all know that Squatchin can take you into the woods; sometimes really deep into the woods. Into areas where not only Sasquatch live, but wild animals such as bears and mountain lions call home.
Are you prepared to defend yourself against a wild animal attack?
To date we have only speculation, as far as Bigfoot on human attacks go. But we do know that mountain lions (cougars) and bears will, at times, attack humans.
Now, many people will say that a gun is your best choice of defense against a big animal. And sometimes that may very well be the case; but what kind of caliber would you need to take down a full-grown grizzly? A gun could be as effective as an Air Horn in some cases. Now, if you are going to take a gun into the field, you should be sure to check your local ordinances so that you know the legal implications of being armed in your area.
Another tactic that has been used against nosey bears is simply to yell and wave your hands above your head, to appear dominate to the bear. Try not to show fear.
As I prepare myself for Squatchin' season... all these things come to mind...
What about mace or pepper spray?
I think carrying a can of spray is a great idea. The big cans can be holstered to your side like a gun, and the smaller ones will fit in a pocket or on a key-chain. After doing some research, it seems that there are advantages to both the large canisters and the small ones. The large canisters (10oz) spray upwards of 30-35 feet, which is a little farther than the small 1.5-ounce cans. The small cans are easy to carry and according to bear researchers, have proven very effective against bears.
In the early 1980's, Ely, Minnesota bear researchers did close-up field tests of pepper spray on wild black and polar bears. One of the brands they used was "Halt", which is primarily used against dogs and has a weaker concentration of capsaicin and shorter spay distance than the large canisters of Counter Assault.
Counter Assault is an EPA-approved bear spray that has a good track record with outdoorsmen. Carl Ramm of Alaska said he was "astounded at how Counter Assault instantaneously stopped a charging mother bear and turned her away."
What brand to buy?
Counter Assault Bear Deterrent contains 2% capsaicin, the maximum amount allowed by law. The spray leaves the can at 70 miles per hour, and gets in the bear's eyes, nose, mouth, and lungs for maximum effect. Experts consider it more effective than bullets against charging mother grizzles. Milder products like HALT Spray are not EPA-approved as bear spray, but these products have consistently worked on all the bears tested by Ely bear researchers. They claim that it is more effective than yelling or banging pots and pans. Despite the spray being limited to around 20 feet in distance, the small cans do have an advantage in that the stream of spray is less likely to blow back on the user.
In conclusion; we should always be prepared for the unknown when we enter the territory of wild animals. Whatever your weapon of choice may be, you should have a plan, just in case you do happen to encounter an aggressive animal.
Here's to a safe and happy year of Squatchin!
Remember to always check your local laws for rules and/or regulations on these products.

I am nodding my head so earnestly in agreement with frenemy Gail Heimann at Weber, my neck hurts.
Cannes Lions: it's a festival. You enter some work. Maybe collect a heavier-than-it-looks statue. You get a sense of what's on in the marketing services world. You connect with clients and maybe a prospect. You share some ideas on one of the stages.
And maybe you come back with an idea or two you probably wouldn't have had on your own, and some inspiration to make your next project a bit more impactful.
But for everyone in PR who makes creative work and pushes to get it made, Cannes Lions remains a joyful, dizzying, high-decibel celebration of the only thing that really makes a difference in the world and to the world: a good idea.

Since revelations of secret wait lists and veteran deaths at VA medical facilities surfaced two months ago, lawmakers on both sides of the political aisle have been pressing the Department of Justice to open up a criminal investigation into the ongoing VA scandal. According to CBS News, the FBI office in Phoenix has launched that criminal probe.
JUST IN: FBI Director James Comey says the Phoenix office of the FBI has opened a criminal investigation of the VA scandal.
— CBS Evening News (@CBSEveningNews) June 11, 2014
Phoenix was the first location where whistleblowers exposed potential criminal wrongdoing and stated veterans had died as a result of long wait times for care. As of now, we know the VA scandal includes more than 40 hospitals in dozens of states and that 120,000 veterans have experienced improper delays. The question now is whether the criminal probe will stop in Phoenix or expand to other locations embroiled in controversy.
UPDATE: More details:
Comey confirmed the bureau's involvement during a hearing before the House Judiciary Committee. Officials previously made clear that federal prosecutors were helping in an inspector general investigation, but the probe by Phoenix FBI agents marks a new phase.
The additional probe comes as internal audits show the expanding scope of the scandal where thousands of military veterans endured long wait times for VA medical care, and VA officials apparently covered up those wait times in order to make their internal numbers look better.
Lawmakers were moving on a separate track on Capitol Hill to address the scandal. The Senate was poised to vote by Thursday on a measure making it easier for veterans who have encountered delays getting initial visits to receive VA-paid treatment from local doctors instead. The measure closely resembles a bill approved unanimously Tuesday in the House, prompting optimism among lawmakers from both parties that a compromise version could be on its way soon to President Obama for his signature.

Brede Hangeland won't leave Fulham in January - because he owes Roy Hodgson one.
The Norwegian centre-half has been linked with a £6million switch to Tottenham Hotspur when the transfer window re-opens in the New Year.
Hangeland has helped the Whites to the fourth-best defensive record in the Premiership, conceding 11 goals, only bettered by high-flyers Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United.
He played under boss Hodgson at Viking, and the lanky defender has promised he won't jump ship and desert the man who brought him to English football.
"Obviously I'm here because of him," said Hangeland.
"I will always owe him, and will try and do my best to keep him happy every Saturday.
"I've got a contract for two more years, and the way things are going I can see myself staying here a long time. It's a great club."
