WOW! That was a pretty impressive December party/meeting yesterday, there was tons of food, plenty to drink,bunches of corals, many a people, and the HUGE Raffle! It Was Big!!!
Like many of you after much preparation and packing of corals, I had a bit of traveling to do before getting to relax with my fellow reefers at the meet. Fortunate for me I was carpooling with the PNWMAS Corvallis Branch Kireek, Miles, and Lexinverts. All avid reefers with good conversation subject matter so the ride was painless.
Right before I left out the front door I had to check my PNWMAS page one more time and saw a couple new messages in the December meeting thread most noticeably this post here that caught my eye...
When I read this post online in the December meeting thread and saw this sign at The Premium Aquarium I was stoked! I love Garret and the TPA crew!
I decided that it isn't fair for me to go without letting my crew go as well. So, I'm gonna close the shop from 2pm until 4:30pm so that everyone can join in on the fun! We are all excited to see everyone!
I am really happy he is the cool guy he is and made the change in their busy work schedule for some fun with the PNWMAS Club.
Unfortunately I was a tad bit late on arrival and there was a number of people whom had already arrived. I am very grateful for our killer Board Of Directors and Office members, they had everything setup and ready to go ahead of time.
Raffles were promised and raffles were delivered!!! Look at this line up! Need,More, Tickets...
And the white elephant gift exchange was in full effect! This table had some of the gifts and there were a number still at another table, there were 20+ participants with varying gifts.
We packed the place, banquet room was full, and everyone was having fun.
A very nice venue that was pretty accommodating considering how busy they were. We had 4 tables for our meet discluding the raffle table and the gift exchange table. Very cool.
Kireek, Flashy Fins, KKnight, and Reefermadness saved me a spot at the end of the table, more good company.
So I am thinking I am going to start with the gift exchange and then move through the rest of the pics. Kinda backwards I know but I think it will work out just right here.
What the Hey, Gift exchange it is.
Gill&Fin received a stylish beanie to keep her head warm, VHO Actinic bulbs, and then some. You never know with this game do you?
Flashy Fins found Dori! and some sweet socks, I believe they have found their proper home right here, I have seen some colorful sock on this one.
Kireek with the book that ended up to be a very nice doctor Sues, hide it from the white elephant thieves. I mean "Who" doesn't like the classics?
Speaking of Dori and Nemo look what we have here. YouCallmenny here with a smile...He knows whats up, he knows.
Emerald with some Hikari frozen food packs, the corals and fish are gonna eat well tonight! I have recently been using a decent amount of there product in change over some inferior ones, this one has much less water fouling liquids and particles in the cubes.
IntoTheMystic got a whole lota kisses! Chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate. That will be an upcoming holiday diet for many of us I think. Just take it one Kiss at a time my friend and it will all be good.
Bycicle Bill unwrapped an automatic feeder, it sounded like something he had some extensive experience with and would use a backup...Sadly enough this was stolen from him in very short time, thats the way the White Elephant rolls. Sorry Bill.
Righttirefire had a brief run in with the Captain but his visit with Morgan was short lived, like a thief on the high seas the Captain Moran was snatched from him in no time. What can you do.
Sirena and the remote control angelfish, now you need the clownfish too so you can both get in on the interactive aquarium. The fish and corals will love it, I have been wanting to try one out on my aggresive powder blue but the tang is so dang fast.
Flash21 unwrapping his bottle of Aquavitro Fuel...That I stole very shortly after. I needed more of the stuff man, I hope you understand and there are no hard feelings. My corals thank you.
Bubbarockies left with a motion picture for the after party entertainment, its an interesting one that's for sure. Hope the Captain America works out for you.
Stylaster got a Brick of chocolate bars, there are certainly worse things thats for sure. I have yet to have an issue with having too much good chocolate.
Whoop Whoop!!! She found Nemo! And some stylish reef socks. I wish my kids would do this when they got their shirts and socks...Maybe I need to get ones with octopus, seahorse, and clownfish.
Holly Cap that was Fun!!! But what about those raffles?..
Lets see, I think Holly has that under control here.
I must apologize again for the pictures, there was less "posing" that usual and my angles were not were they should have been. That being said this is what I did capture. Bubbarockies snagging a nice gift certificate to good old Rocky Mountain Frags, there is some choice stuff there thats fir sure.
Miles was excited that he walked home with the generous frag pack donated by Paratore, Cody's Surprise! There was a few nice things in there yeah, Thanks Cody.
Look at the energy in this shot, ecstatic about it, KKnight won one of the Grand Prizes, the duel MP 40s! Talk about an upgrade, glad you have a tank large enough to use em cause they sure make alot of motion in the ocean.
And Say What!?
Once the winning number of the other grand prize Red sea Nano All In One was called people just looked, Cody still gathering himself in disbelief looking at his ticket.
And YES!!! Paratore is the lucky One.
Speaking of Lucky Ones...
This Gyre was won with just the free membership raffle ticket you get from being a payed member. It Pays to to be part of the official crew. I won an MP 10 the same way a few years back.CHEERS to you!
Congratulations too all of you who won at the raffles, there was alot of sponsors pooled into this one as well as some club funds to make this amazing thing happen, and boy did it happen.
Thank You Holly, Jorge, Miles, KKnight, Garret, MattV, TheClark, and Softy.
A Special Thanks to President Emerald, First Lady Sirena, Treasurer Mr.Bret, they put in a lot of effort into this particular meet and it sure payed off guys and gals. We Appreciate it.
It has been a good year y'all and I am honored to have been working along side a good group of people like this...Thank You.

For those of you who were not able to make it the PNWMAS September meeting this year was held at one of our club members homes Higher Thinking. Andrew and his wife Lauren purchased the house recently and opened their doors to our group for a very nice meet and greet shindig.
Right inside you walk right past a very nice fresh water planted tank. He gave a run down on how to keep an attractive shrimp aquarium, wich is also something he knows quite a bit about, I didn't get any close ups of this particular tank but I did get some shots of the others.
Once you walk past the fresh water tank you are just hit by this large reef just glittering in the middle of the room. YES!!! Are those Radions I see? Nice canopy, it looks pretty slick in person.
Higher Thinking even cleared some space right next to his tank for our cub frag tank. My good friend Miles and I got the trade tank going on for some coral exchange.
A very healthy spread of food was layed out before we had even gotten their by our generous hosts. Mac and cheese, sweet cornbread, 3 kinds of delicious pulled pork, Sirena's killer tortellini pasta salad, and
With OUR Name on them! Very Cool Lauren and Andrew, Very Cool.
Not only that but Andrew offered up his knowledge and time to give us all a refresher course on Calcium reactors. Conveniently he has it plumbed underneath his house were it resides in a separate closet that happens to be adjacent to were the meeting was taking place.
He did very well at the presentation, ran through all the basics, got into some of the technicalities, answered questions, and with some input form Bicycle Bill pointed out some tricks of the trade as well as thoughts on some reactor maintenance. Thank You Andrew, you did well.
AND let us not forget about the Big Raffle that went on. So many generous sponsors this year! In the pot at this September meeting were... Rod's Frozen Foods, The Premium Aquarium, Upscales, Avast Marine Works, Sea Horse Supply, Ocean In A Box, Barrier Reef, and the Golden Basket!
Not only that but there was tons of cool reef stuffs brought such as bags, buttons, hats, and various sample products from test kits to coral dips. Thank you Holly and Kim!
Kim even brought the Club T-Shirts for our members to grab one before we revamp the style...So much good stuff in one place.

Communities change constantly. People move. Families grow. New organizations arrive. The best Kiwanis clubs evolve with the times.
Kiwanis clubs change too as new members and leaders offer new ideas and visions of how Kiwanis can support the community's needs.
Community surveys help your club learn about its service impact, partnership opportunities and possibilities for expansion. Scheduling surveys annually keeps the club's service relevant and helps evolution feel natural.
To get started, download the rediscovering your community tool. It will walk you through the steps of conducting a helpful survey.
Brainstorm to identify community members who could provide the most useful information. These individuals may be partners or business and community leaders—anyone whose opinion will help your club understand where members' hearts and hands are most needed.
Put together small teams to conduct interviews. Look for members who are eager to learn and comfortable interviewing people.
Ask about the community's needs. What makes the community great? Where could it use improvement? How can Kiwanis help?
How can your club make itself even stronger and more relevant? Collect the input from the interviews and discuss ideas for potential new service projects or fundraisers, partnerships or sponsorships and even potential new members at the next membership committee meeting.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Bobby Yribarren of Fresno Pacific (Calif.) has been named the first NAIA National Men's Swimmer of the Month for the 2011 – 2012 season, the national office announced Wednesday. Yribarren was selected based on his performances in the month of January and was chosen out of a pool of candidates nominated by NAIA men's swimming & diving programs.
The 2011 NAIA All-American won all five of his events in the past month at two separate meets. Up against swimmers from former NAIA member and 2011 national runner-up California Baptist on Jan. 14, the Fresno, Calif., native won both of his events, posting a time of 9:34.01 in the 1,000-yard freestyle and a time of 4:41.70 in the 500-yard freestyle.
In a meet with both NCAA Division I Pacific (Calif.) and NCAA Division III UC Santa Cruz on Jan. 21, the standout senior took first place in a trio of events: the 1,000-yard freestyle (9:40.98), the 200-yard butterfly (1:54.96) and the 500-yard freestyle (4:42.89). Yribarren's performances have helped the Sunbirds finish unbeaten in dual meets this season for the first time in school history and allowed Fresno Pacific to vault back to No. 1 in the Coaches' Poll.
The next Swimmer of the Month award will be announced on Feb. 22.
Nominees: Travis Strachan, Union (Ky.); Mateo Maciuniak, Oklahoma Baptist; Matt Nellor, Concordia (Calif.); Jeremy Erbsen, College of Idaho.

Manhattan College Upgrades to 4K Television Studio with Blackmagic Design
Manhattan College is a private liberal arts college located in Riverdale, NY, a neighborhood in the northwest portion of the Bronx. In 2008, the college formed a new communication department, and as part of that initiative they began building a new, professional television studio for students in the broadcasting/telecommunications program. Their plan was to build the studio in high definition; however, due to the 2008 financial crisis, the decision was made at the last minute to make the studio SD instead of HD.
Associate Professor Michael Grabowski joined the communication department in 2010. With a background in television production, shooting documentaries and music videos, and television editing, Michael now teaches production while consulting on documentary story construction and trends in television audiences and programming. When he began teaching Manhattan College students in the SD studio, he lamented the fact that it wasn't in HD and that the students didn't have better equipment.
It took several years, but after putting in several proposals the department received the funds necessary to upgrade the studio to HD. While researching new equipment, Michael realized that Blackmagic Design's line of studio products would allow them to leapfrog over HD and upgrade the studio to 4K for roughly the same price.
Out with the Old, In with the New
"As I began my research I was at first looking to upgrade the studio to HD but at the same time I knew there were 4K field cameras coming on the market," said Michael. "I realized that 4K was going to be the new standard in studios, but not a lot of companies had come out with 4K studio equipment yet. Then Blackmagic Design debuted their Studio Camera 4K and the ATEM 2 M/E Production Studio 4K. I had worked with the Blackmagic Cinema Camera previously and was impressed with the image quality of the camera for the price. I realized that I would be able to get the 4K switcher from Blackmagic Design and be able to switch programs in 4K for roughly the same price I was going to pay for an HD switcher from another vendor."
As a result, the department installed three Blackmagic Studio Camera 4Ks with Vinten pedestals, an ATEM 2 M/E Production Studio 4K switcher with an ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast Panel, a Smart Videohub 40x40 router and four HyperDeck Studio Pro digital disk recorders.
Today, the studio is used by students in the broadcasting program at Manhattan College, as well as by a college-wide group that produces content in the studio for the campus television station, MCTV. Immediately following the 4K upgrade in 2016, the studio began operating in HD until they could purchase 4K field cameras, but it is now operating totally in 4K. Michael said now that they have equipment with resolution that he can market, he is aiming to bring in outside clients to use the studio as well, so that students can work as assistants on real-world projects.
The production center consists of a 37'x28' studio with green screen backgrounds, a news set, an edit lab and a control room. In the studio, the Blackmagic Studio Camera 4Ks are fed to the ATEM 2 M/E Production Studio 4K which allows the students to do the live cut of the show. From there the feeds are sent to the Smart Videohub 20x20 which is used to route the feeds to monitors throughout the set and the control room. The students also shoot projects on location in 4K using SD cards, then complete their editing, transfer the files to an SSD and play back the footage using one of the in-studio HyperDeck Studio Pros. For a program they actually shoot in the studio, they record directly on the HyperDeck Studio Pros, then bring the SSD into the edit lab or to a laptop to edit the footage.
A Seamless Switch to 4K
"I'm teaching two classes in the studio currently and I'm finding that the Blackmagic equipment is incredibly intuitive and easy to use, starting from the first time we used it," said Michael. "The layout of the ATEM control panel is completely in line with industry standards for switchers. Students are able to adapt to it instantly. Students who have used a switcher previously say the ATEM is easier to use."
He continued, "The HyperDeck Studio Pro works just like a tape machine where you have record and playback buttons, and you can also easily queue up clips. It's easy to use, which is our number one praise for the Blackmagic products, but the reliability is also huge. I have not had one glitch or one crash at all. The cameras also look incredible and give us amazing image quality. The large 10" viewfinder makes it easy for camera operators to see every detail as they are shooting."
Michael noted that the ability to use the products in SD, HD or 4K was a huge benefit as they moved forward with the studio upgrade. Another benefit the department experienced during the upgrade was being able to use some of their existing infrastructure with the new equipment.
"Because our architecture had already been wired up for SDI Interface, and because we had a superior engineer with Jeff Anderson of G-Force Engineering, we were able to use all the existing wiring to send 4K signals throughout our studio," said Michael. "We also had broadcast lenses, and we were able to adapt them to the Blackmagic Studio Camera 4Ks. It is great to be able to use the lenses that we already owned, and they help us achieve incredible cinema-like footage. We get a beautiful, shallow depth of field and the image quality is incredible.
"I believe we were the first college in the area to upgrade our studio environment to 4K," added Michael. "I found one facility in NYC that's ever offered a 4K studio and it's not a school. Other colleges have started to use 4K cinema cameras in the field but as far as a studio goes I think we are ahead of the curve. It's an environment that has really benefitted us, and something that other colleges and professionals can certainly achieve as well."

"I love the look of a plain page spread of my sketchbook, it gets me hungry to fill it with the people I see everyday on the trains, tube and buses in London. I go through the London Transport System armed with my biro or pencil and an A6 sketchbook looking at people's faces and I get high! I love everything about the human face and going through a multicultural city like London serves me with all I need to see, feel and explore. I love sketching on location because it trains my eye and hand co-ordination, something useful for me as a figurative/portrait painter. But most of all I just enjoy the experience of sketching with the people all around me watching, peeping, making comments, getting cross, smiling and best of all asking me to send the sketches to their mail boxes for their personal use!"

KENTWOOD, Mich. (AP) — A 9-year-old boy repeatedly stabbed by a 12-year-old at a Michigan playground ran screaming to his home and collapsed bleeding on his porch before dying at a hospital a short time later, witnesses and police said Tuesday.
Witnesses said the 12-year-old boy went to a nearby home after the Monday evening attack on Michael Conner Verkerke, called 911 and calmly turned himself in, then tried to flag down officers when they arrived.
The 12-year-old pleaded not guilty to a murder charge in juvenile court Tuesday, according to his attorney. He was ordered held in a juvenile detention center until a hearing next week. A motive for the attack still was being investigated, Kentwood Police Chief Thomas Hillen said.
Barb Poelman told The Associated Press she was sitting on her deck in the Pinebrook Village mobile home park in the western Michigan city of Kentwood when "we heard the kids run across the front ... screaming. He (Michael) ran with the kids that were with him."
She said the boy's mother was distraught, pleading for help as she lay on the grass outside the family's home.
"She was screaming, 'Where is the ambulance?' while her boy was laying on the porch bleeding," Poelman said. "The kids, I thought they were just playing."
Witnesses told investigators that four children were playing when one of them, for unknown reasons, pulled a knife and stabbed the boy in the back.
Glen Stacy, who lives nearby, told The Grand Rapids Press that the older boy approached him after the attack and asked to use his phone. He said the boy called 911 to report the attack and turn himself in.
Stacy said he also called police and described the boy as "very calm."
"The only time he raised his voice was when the police came," Stacy said.
When police arrived at the mobile home park, they first went to aid the stabbing victim, but the older boy wanted the officers to pick him up and yelled, "'Hello, I'm right here. You're going the wrong way,'" Stacy said.
Tiffany Armijo said her son was playing with Michael before he was attacked and that she had never seen the 12-year-old before.
"He was playing with Michael and his brother, and my kid, too," she said, her voice breaking.
She declined to discuss any details about the attack, but said Michael was her son's best friend and "a good kid."
"They always played together. He was at my house almost every day," she said.
Poelman said the boy lived with his parents and two siblings in the mobile home park. A man who identified himself as Michael's grandfather when the AP called a phone number listed for his home declined to comment.
Police said the 12-year-old boy was evaluated at a hospital after the attack, then taken to the Kent County Juvenile Detention Center.
Defense attorney Charles Boekeloo said he entered a not-guilty plea for the boy during Tuesday's hearing, adding that he may seek a mental evaluation to determine if the boy is competent to stand trial.
The Associated Press is not naming the 12-year-old because of his age. He is designated as an adult in the juvenile court system, which would allow the boy, if convicted, to be sentenced as a juvenile and then as an adult once he turns 21, according to Chris Becker, chief assistant prosecutor for Kent County.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Aug. 13.
Williams reported from Detroit.

Microsoft announced in a statement that the ECMA standards that cover the C# language and the Common Language Infrastructure will be covered by the community promise patent license. This is a legally binding document that cannot be withdrawn in the future; in other words, it's perpetually active. In a nutshell, this is what this means:
You do not need to sign a license agreement, or otherwise communicate to Microsoft how you will implement the specifications.
The Promise applies to developers, distributors, and users of Covered Implementations without regard to the development model that created the implementations, the type of copyright licenses under which it is distributed, or the associated business model.
Under the Community Promise, Microsoft provides assurance that it will not assert its Necessary Claims against anyone who makes, uses, sells, offers for sale, imports, or distributes any Covered Implementation under any type of development or distribution model, including open-source licensing models such as the LGPL or GPL.
This development comes courtesy of the Mono project itself, as Miguel de Icaza explains. "A few months ago we approached Bob Muglia and Brian Goldfarb at Microsoft with a request to clarify the licensing situation for the ECMA standards covering C# and the CLI (also ISO standards, for the ISO loving among you)," he writes on his blog.
Since Mono comprises a lot more than just the parts covered by the ECMA standards, De Icaza also announced that Mono will be split in half. "In the next few months we will be working towards splitting the jumbo Mono source code that includes ECMA + A lot more into two separate source code distributions," he explains, "One will be ECMA, the other will contain our implementation of ASP.NET, ADO.NET, Winforms and others."
Before we all start cheering and getting out the champagne, I do believe it would be nice to see someone with legal expertise to look over the Community Promise to see if there's anything unclear in there. One thing that bothers me about the Promise is that it only covers those implementations that implement all required portions of a specification; partial implementations are not covered. I'm not entirely sure what this means in practice, but it does raise a few questions.
In any case, it's a good development.

Without spoiling things, the end of Assassin's Creed 3 was fairly definitive in the way it closed down the whole series, so when Ubisoft invited us to take a look at a new Assassin's game, you can imagine our surprise.
First up lets get the truly exciting bit out of the way: Assassin's Creed 4 is coming to PS4. While Ubisoft hasn't specifically told us if the footage shown in current trailers is from Sony's new console, given the way it looks, we presume so.
Ubisoft also said it would ship on "all available consoles" in 2013. We can only assume, then, that this will be a game for both the Xbox 720 and PS4 and should, hopefully, be a launch title. It will also be arriving on PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
So what is Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag all about? Well the clue really is in the title, it's about pirates. Not your Jack Sparrow kind either, nor Robinson Crusoe style characters, this is proper real-life pirates with Ubisoft keeping things as historically accurate as possible.
The notorious Blackbeard is at the crux of the story, alongside some lesser-known pirates such as Charles Vane, Benjamin Hornigold and Anne Bonney. Ubisoft was keen to point out that not all pirates are necessarily as bad as the next, so we expect some will form the good guys of the game and others the bad.
You play the as Edward Kenway, the father of Haytham Kenway in Assassin's Creed 3. Kenway is an out of work British sailor looking to get up to no good in the bustling trade routes off the coast of Cuba and around the West Indies.
READ: PS4 - Everything you need to know
As you have probably already guessed, the new Assassin's Creed involves boats, lots of boats. You will be able to island hop across 50 different locations in the game, from hidden coves to small fishing villages. On top of this, there will be big bustling cities, like the pirate republic in Nassau or Havana in Cuba and even Kingston in Jamaica.
On top of the island hopping, Kenway will sail around the vast map on his ship, the Jackdaw. The boat will be fully upgradable, have a proper crew and feature an improved version of the already very awesome naval battle system created in Assassin's Creed 3.
As for Kenway himself, he is a pirate that has been trained by the Assassins, a skilled fighter and sailor and capable of all the acrobatics you have seen in previous games. He also carries a pair of pistols on his chest, which from the look of things, he can dual-wield.
Kenway will be able to leap from ship to ship and swim, a first in the series. In fact Ubisoft tells us that he will be able to use diving bells to go down deep underwater. One of the videos we were shown had footage of Kenway fighting a shark, which looked rather awesome.
READ: Assassin's Creed III review
These naval battles will be far grander in scale than previously and, Ubisoft promises, will make combat far more difficult. No longer will you be able to simply dispatch any foe in front of you, as some of the huge galleons that you will eventually need to take on will require time and investment in your own ship.
Alongside fighting ships you can - in a rather politically incorrect move - also go whale harpooning. You will have a spyglass to help you spot both whale and ship so you can make up your own mind as to which you attack. An innocent sea creature or a boat loaded with gold.
This is going to be a much more ambitious game than previous Assassin's Creed titles. It is a big open world for you to explore, a proper naval simulator and one of the first titles to run on new home consoles. Graphically it is already looking stunning and we really can't wait for Ubisoft to start rolling out more gameplay.
At the moment we imagine most developers are stuck under serious non-disclosure agreements about new consoles, so details are still quite thin on the look and workings of the new game. Hold on until E3, it's going to be one serious show this year and naturally Pocket-lint will be there.

In May 2012, Hearts On Fire was thrilled to open its first domestic store (The Forum Shops at Caesars Palace Las Vegas) featuring its new, first-of-its-kind retail concept – a concept that truly revolutionizes how customers relate to and buy fine diamond jewelry, with a sleek and modern store design and digitally savvy, innovative features.
After experiencing immense success at the Hearts On Fire Las Vegas location, Hearts On Fire continued to evolve both its selling and conceptual designs, with even more revolutionary enhancements in a Hearts On Fire King of Prussia retail store that opened in October 2013.
These new stores are just the beginning – the first two U.S. based stores in a full international retail expansion strategy designed to transform the way consumers relate to and buy fine diamond jewelry in premiere mall locations. Continuing in 2014 and years to come, there will be more HOF diamond jewelry stores opening in major metropolitan areas around the entire world. Hearts On Fire will continue to be sold in more than 500 authorized HOF retailers as well.

Earlier this week, a post of mine was published over at Think Simple Now: How to Overcome a Bad Day. I was happy to share it, because the tips work really well for me. But it came with a caveat:
I want to stress that what I'm talking about is your one-off, run-of-the-mill bummer times.
If you've been struggling with these for weeks or months, the tips may help, but you might also want to chat with a counselor. No shame in that game.
When I first wrote it, I thought it was just something I needed to put in, like how exercise videos always say "Ask your doctor before starting any fitness program." But lately, I've been reading a lot about depression, and more specifically bloggers dealing with depression, and my brain wouldn't let me keep it to myself anymore.
I know I've got a (self-imposed) reputation around these parts for being an optimistic, happy camper, but it ain't all roses and puppy dogs. So if you were reading this post with that expectation, you don't have to continue. You should! But you don't have to.
At the age of 17 I, along with a few others, were the victims of severe bullying at school. It was so bad it made it into the high school yearbook. This was before words like "cyber-bullying" were in our vernacular, but between school and my home computer, I felt constantly attacked.
I quit every activity except band (mostly because we had a trip to Hawaii coming up that I'd already paid for). I stopped playing the piano after 12 years of lessons. I gave away the lead in our musical to my understudy. I skipped classes daily. I stayed home at night instead of camping with friends.
My parents and I didn't have the best relationship, but they weren't blind either. They sent to my first psychiatrist where I was promptly diagnosed with depression and put on Paxil. I didn't like how I felt, so I quit taking them. After a few months, things started to get better and I went on with my life.
Then, years later, my marriage started falling apart. I'd lay in my bed and cry and cry, until I thought it was finally done. Then my eyes would well up again. I was a waitress at the time and there were no sick days. I'd go to work and break down while talking to guests about beer. It was a real downer.
I went to another psychiatrist. And then things got better a few months later. But this cycle continued. Again and again and again. And each time, it got worse. Where I once dismissed passing thoughts of suicide, I now entertained them. Wouldn't it be so much easier? When is this going to stop?
I called friends but, with the exception of one, felt like I was quickly becoming a burden. People can't drop their mid-day meeting to counsel me through my latest bout of sobbing. And I was seriously abusing my privilege to work at home. My boss understood, but when you're out of the office more than you're in, things get tense.
Something had to change. If this kept up, I was headed for unemployment at best and an early grave at worst. I had to change my attitude that this depression I was dealing with was just going to go away. I couldn't just "snap out of it" as an insensitive person once said. I needed to manage this.
And so I headed to counseling again. But this time I made several promises to myself. If I didn't like my counselor, I would find another one. I wasn't going to lie to my counselor, no matter what. (Why I'd lie to someone who's supposed to keep everything you say confidential, I don't know. But I did.)
And finally, I was going to go for as long as it took. No more six-month stints. If I needed years of counseling, so be it. I worked out most days. I ate well. It was time to dedicate my energy to the health of my mental self. Who cares if I ate five servings of vegetables when I was a curled-up, crying mess on the bed?
That was 2.5 years ago. I'd like to say that I'm depression free, but seriously folks, depression is like fibromyalgia or rheumatoid arthritis. You manage it. It never goes away. Most days I am A-OK. I'm the happy, optimistic good witch you read on this blog. But some days I'm in a hole that's so deep I'm almost sure I'll never get out.
Thankfully, those days are few and far between. Everyone's case is different, but I remember desperately searching online for any solutions, so here's a list of things that really help me manage my depression.
A good counselor. I know. Counseling is scary. There are stigmas involved with seeing one. It's not cheap. It takes time. But if you can afford it, if your health insurance covers it (which, in my opinion, it should), DO IT! Go.
A lot of employers have EAP programs that offer a few sessions free. Use this to find someone you like. Some counselors offer sliding scales for people who qualify. And keep going. When you feel better, keep going.
I spent two years going to therapy every week. That's a lot of time. But totally worth it. Since then, I've slowly scaled back to once a month. But I don't intend to stop. It's part of my life. It's saved my life.
Pop music. When I was young I hung out with punk rockers who made fun of my love for Bon Jovi, but I held on. I didn't care then (which makes me a little more punk, doesn't it?) and I sure as hell don't care now.
If it's Top 40, I probably love it. Yes, even Justin Beiber. And this never fails to make me bounce around like a idiot. A happy idiot.
Someone else with depression. It might seem weird that I'd manage my depression partially by having a close friend with depression, but somehow two negatives equal a positive.
One of my best friends struggles with anxiety and depression on a similar level to me. She gets it when I say I feel like I'm underwater and vice-versa. I have wonderful people in my life who have supported me with this battle and I owe them so much, but nothing compares to a person who's been in the trenches too.
St. John's Wort. I've never been a big fan of synthetic drugs, especially ones that have side effects like sexual dysfunction and suicide. But after months of therapy and still feeling like I'm walking over an abyss on a tight-rope, my friend told me to open my mind to drug therapy.
I sighed. "Fine. I'll open my mind up a little bit," I said, mocking her. But when I got home, my housemate's girlfriend said she brought me a present and gave me St. John's Wort. I love the Universe. I did a little research and decided to give it a shot.
With Paxil, I felt like someone had taken over the controls. I wasn't myself. But St. John's Wort has just taken that abyss I was balancing above on my tight-rope and made it more like a small canyon.
I can see the bottom. It's got a river and a few rocks. It'll hurt if I fall in, but it's not the chasm the Nazi lady falls into in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
Exercise. This is an exceptionally tough one to do once I've already hit the bottom, but it is one of the best preventative measures to be sure. It releases serotonin and gives me more energy. There's also the side effect of a more toned body and the ability to eat way more cookies.
I'm pretty sure Tony Horton would not be stoked that I use his P90X program as an excuse to eat dessert, but hey! Whatdya gonna do? I would totally recommend that program for anyone with depression. Every day is scripted out so you don't have to make any decision except to hit the Play button.
This movie never gets old.
This guy is hilarious.
Lay off the booze. Anyone that knows me knows I love beer (which has made gluten-free living so much more painful). When I was waiting tables, you could say I had a bit of a drinking problem as I could count the number of sober nights I'd had in seven years on two hands. Self-medicating much?
While that's changed quite a bit, I still notice that if I have a few glasses of wine a few nights in a row, I start to feel a little down. Not always, but sometimes. Alcohol is a depressant, and I clearly do not need any help in that department.
While I'm not going to swear off drinking entirely, I do enjoy the months hiatuses my husband and I take for his bike race training. And when I drink now, I try to keep it to a more reasonable amount and usually not day after day.
Art. I've spent a lot of time working through The Artist's Way, which really helped me feel in touch with myself and my feelings and all that other gooey stuff that makes life awesome. And when I'm feeling bummed, art really brings me back to life.
Sidewalk chalk drawings, paint-by-numbers, pencil art, knitting, crocheting, singing, dancing, gardening and baking (yes those are art to me), reading, writing, and staring at the ocean while stacking rocks on the beach. All of these soothe my soul and ease my depression.
Just accept it. A few weeks ago I was laying in bed trying to get my ass in gear. I had deadlines. There was food to be cooked and laundry to be done. But my body/mind decided it was a good time to cry. So I let it.
I didn't have a real reason. I could probably link it back to a movie that triggered some crazy emotional memory, but who cares? Tears fell. You know that scene in Fight Club where Edward Norton's character cries into Meatloaf's shirt? Yeah. Like that.
I let myself do very little that day and I just accepted that it was how it was and that tomorrow would probably get better. And if it wasn't, well the day after was a new one too. So, just take it easy man.
Looking for a cure for depression leads to more depression, in my opinion. You've got to accept it, manage it and live life. If you're looking for more help, check these out: National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, National Alliance on Mental Illness, Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance.
And if you're reading this and you have other ideas or resources, please let me know in the comments!
P.S. I was inspired to write this post in part by a book out right now called Crochet Saved My Life by Kathryn Vercillo. She's giving away a few copies right now (entry via blog post) and I hope to win one.
Honestly, between that and my sister-in-law telling me to, I don't know that I would've ever written this otherwise. It takes weird things to give you courage.

Unfortunately, as pleasant as the hotel may look, I had an awful night's sleep due to the unacceptable noise from outside my window caused by some sort of extraction unit or generator.
Even wearing ear plugs I could not sleep - I called reception to ask if I could change rooms and was declined; I was asked if I'd requested a quiet room. When checking out I was asked if everything had been ok - when I mentioned the noise problem, I was met with a stony silence. A repeated lack of concern from the staff it would appear. I had an important meeting the following day and the lack of sleep was obviously detrimental.

ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA -- We just want to thank Casey for his exemplary service this morning. We had a downed wire and he came out promptly to remove the wire and was so knowledgeable, helpful and very courteous. What a pleasant way to start our day. Thank you Xcel and thank you Casey!!!
MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA -- I received a bill in June 2016 for a True-Up amount of $385.00. I paid this bill. My July bill is $121.00. I understand kilowatt-hours, but to include an equal dollar amount for an energy charge is absurd (not including taxes). I think I'm helping to fund the new Vikings Stadium. I heard that stadium was cheaply constructed and falling apart which they showed on the news. Since the taxpayers helped fund that stadium, we should get free tickets.
AURORA, COLORADO -- Here is my review of Xcel Energy. My total cost on the bill I received is 152.77. My electric usage was 35.35. My gas was 37.52. That comes out to about 74.00. Now here comes the necessary???... EXTRA fees... that HAVE to be ADDED in. GRSA: Which charges the facility usage charge plus demand charge... 4.49... elec. commodity charge: This bogus charge RECOVERS... the cost of fuel and purchased energy used to supply electricity service to us...? (GREAT WORDING FOR THE TERM BEING CHARGED TWICE FOR THE SAME SERVICE...)
Demand charge: This charge recovers... the fixed costs associated with the system capacity necessary to produce and deliver power to the consumers (LUCKY US) THIS SOUNDS LIKE THE ELEC. COMM. ADJ. ALL OVER AGAIN.. (IT IS!) Purchase cap cost adj.:12.51... All rate schedules are SUBJECTED.... (FORCED) TO ABIDE BY THIS. The PCCA RECOVERS... (SAME WORD SAID IN THE SAME WAY AS ABOVE) COST to purchase electric generation capacity from other suppliers...? and is subject to annual costs... These are just some of the bogus charges we are being charged for electricity!!!
ALL THE ABOVE RULES ARE THE SAME THING!!! READ THEM!!! We are all so lucky in Colorado and other states I'm sure to be charged almost 3 times what we are using... What a BRILLIANT idea by this wonderful... company... Now the gas breakdown: usage charge: 8.33. Again this charge RECOVERS!!! (HERE IS THAT WORD AGAIN...) XCEL ENERGIES COST TO PROVIDE SERVICE... TO US...? (GETTING DIZZY YET OR ANGRY?) The pipeline pipes it in for us for one cost on my bill for 7.17 and THEN... another cost of 1.28 more. (I GUESS THE PIPE WAS SHORT AND THEY EXTENDED IT...)
Well last but not least: SERVICE AND FACILITY...9.34 FOR THE FIRST ONE 1.56 FOR THE SECOND ONE.... (I see these trucks parked usually at a park somewhere in the shade resting.. (I GUESS 11.00 IS NOT ENOUGH TO DO ANYTHING ELSE...) Every single charge is DOUBLED UP ON OUR BILL!!! All these phony charges are for the same thing! Hopefully everyone can see past this someday and take some action!!! It would be nice to pay for services rendered just 1 time instead of 3 or more!
LAFAYETTE, COLORADO -- I really can't understand how it is we pay nearly 10 times the amount shown right on the bill, for the energy used in our home. For instance, October 2011, $2.00 of gas & $7.00 of electricity cost us, wait for it, $78.00. You just have to love a monopoly, if you happen to own it, otherwise it sucks. Our son who lives 12 miles away in Longmont, in a home similar to ours, pays about $15-$20 per month for his energy due to Longmont's "Light and Power". Thanks so much to Xcel for overcharging us every month, and for fighting to prevent local municipalities from developing their own energy capabilities.
MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA -- I rent a little storefront in a small town from the local barber. My shop is open only two days a week and my light bill is very small. Suddenly in spring of 2004 my bill doubled. I called Xcel and they confirmed that my meter had been replaced. On advice of someone at their regional offices, I continued to pay my usual amount to avoid a disconnect until my meter could be replaced and tested, which took several months. Upon replacement, my bill dropped to the original amount. I expected Xcel to remove the overcharges from my record. Wrong. They said it tested accurate and they continue to press me for the back amount plus monthly penalty to this day.
My phone calls during 2004 made no difference, so I put everything in writing to their Credit Services Office in 2005, along with a letter from my landlord saying that there had been no changes to internal wiring to account for the jump in bill. I received no answer. The monthly penalty plus back bill has reached the point where they are threatening to disconnect this week It is not the money as much as the principle. I see other people have had similar treatment from Xcel.
ST PAUL, MINNESOTA -- I moved to a new apt. in Aug of 05. The mgrs subsequently sent notification to Xcel energy regarding my tenancy with instructions to begin service record for me. I never received a bill and made many attempts over the year to get Xcel to respond. In person visits had me being told they would send a bill - nope! Phone contact? Nope! Finally I received a bill that summer in July for the entire yr's charges. No apologies. No explanations. Just a demand for immediate payment. Being I am hearing impaired, contact is difficult so I resorted to using Xcel's website to make my displeasure known.
I felt that Xcel owed it to me after an entire yr trying to eat this huge charge since they were the ones who messed up. They refused to offer anything but a payment "spread out" not to exceed a yr... basically I was to be 'stuck' with a 'doubled' power bill. Because of my financial situation this was completely unworkable and since Xcel refused any but this option I finally agreed and got a bill for a doubled amount - which I paid. I never got any further bill and Xcel promptly 'lost' my acct again. Contact via website was a loser from the start and the only responses from Xcel was repeated billing for the entire amount - my power was finally cut in Dec 06 and I filed with the BBB.
Xcel then assigned me a customer advocate that basically did nothing but push the company 'spread out' plan line. With this going nowhere, I contacted an attorney who advised me to file with the attorney general and to also apply for energy aid. My aid was denied because I made too much - no luck there. To date I sit without power(luckily the heat is paid by the rent) and I am awaiting the results of the AG's inquiries and/or pressure. Suffice to say I am P.O.d in the extreme.
My treatment by Xcel was arrogant in the extreme and while I admit I did indeed use the electric since moving in, trying for a yr to get action is absurd and the unfriendly attitude is dismaying in a public utilities firm. Their website sucks and is gravely in need of work...especially for those who are handicapped and/or otherwise need alternate methods. Connecting with a problem was nearly unworkable because the website insists on things like phones etc when you may not have one..their inflexible pattern is appalling so be warned...
AURORA, COLORADO -- I moved into my apt on sept. 18th, 2007. I took over a lease for my ex- boyfriend. I turned the energy in in my name and two months later xcel added my ex's past bills to my account even though we didn't live together. First I was told to have him call and take responsibility for his bill. When he did that, there was no notes put in the file so it's a like he didn't call. I had him call again after that I faxed a copy of my lease to excel, like I was told to.
But I still didn't get his past due amount taken off my account. I received a call a day later telling me I need to fax a copy of my old lease from where I was living before I moved to my current residence, but since I lived with my mother they told me I would still be accountable for his bill because I wasn't on my mother's lease and I couldn't prove that I wasn't living with him. Even though the bill was in his name, under his social, I have to pay it cause I took over his lease.
Even though I had him call and give them a billing address for him, I still have to pay his bill because someone at excel added him to my account without my authorization. I cannot get my energy turned on with a better company because there is only one energy company in my state. So I have to pay someone elses bill for an apartment I wasn't living in when the bill was generated. When they tell me what I need to do to fix it and I do it then there is something else that I have to do. I have no way to fix it except to pay someone else's bill.
DENVER, COLORADO -- Five months ago my lease ended. This was a good thing considering my roommate was horrible and previous to my moving in had acquired a large bill with Xcel Energy. Long story short, currently I have moved into my own house, and have been paying Xcel Energy faithfully every month, she hasn't. A week ago I discovered Xcel had allowed my ex-roommate of over 5 months to charge her bill to my account. What did Xcel do? NOTHING! They said it could be considered FRAUD, I'd have to contact my BANK. In conclusion, they didn't help rectify the situation.
So, BEWARE currently their system allows you to pay over the phone by check, it doesn't tell you it will be saving the number so that anyone with your phone number can call and make a payment on the account with your card. OH AND... I called them five months ago to take my name off the account. I guess that TAKE ME OFF THE ACCOUNT is to VAGUE for Xcel to understand I don't want my checking account to be charged either. THE BEST PART, They are the only utility provider available.

A Los Angeles police SWAT team rescued 14 employees held hostage at a Nordstrom Rack store in Westchester on Friday, hours after gunmen stabbed one person and sexually assaulted another before escaping after a late-night robbery.
The crime forced the lockdown of the neighboring Rave theaters, where about 200 people attending movies were forced to spend most of the night.
"Rave cinemas keeping patrons in to watch Zero Dark Thirty and Gangster Squad," movie patron Jack Sheehan tweeted from the theaters about 2 a.m. Friday. "Nice of them but definitely ironic – cops or terrorists?"
Movie patrons had little idea what was happening at the Nordstrom Rack at The Promenade at Howard Hughes Center, adjacent to the San Diego (405) Freeway at Sepulveda Boulevard and Center Drive. As moviegoers were held in theaters, 14 workers at the clothing store were held inside the business until SWAT team members burst in to free them.
By then, the robbers had apparently fled, possibly in a white Ford Explorer that charged out of a parking lot as officers arrived. It was unclear if the men inside, the driver in a dark hooded sweatshirt and a passenger in a white T-shirt, were involved in the crime.
"White SUV! White SUV!" a police officer yelled over the radio to other officers, according to a scanner recording posted on Twitter by @Venice911. "White Ford Explorer, high rate of speed leaving the parking lot. Bottom level! Bottom level!"
Officers gave chase, but lost sight of the sport utility vehicle, which could have sped onto the Marina (90) Freeway or escaped along Sepulveda Boulevard.
A vehicle possibly involved in the crime was found abandoned on a street in Culver City, police said.
According to police, officers swarmed the shopping center at 10 p.m. Thursday when a man dialed 911 to report that his girlfriend had called him to say two gunmen had barged into the store. No customers were inside. The store was closed.
Besides the fleeing vehicle, officers saw a man exit the store, but run back inside when he saw them. A man leaving the store with a woman forced her back inside when he saw the officers, police said.
Police stationed themselves outside the building and called for a SWAT team, shutting surrounding streets and blocking anyone from coming in or out.
"Okay, so apparently something similar to the heist from Reservoir Dogs has happened across the street from work. And I'm still here," a concerned Justin Abrotsky tweeted from an adjacent office building. "Correction: With hostages and a standoff near my office, this may end up being a lot more like the plot of Die Hard. Still here. Yipes."
The SWAT team entered the Nordstrom Rack about 3:30 a.m. and found 13 women and one man in a bathroom and storage room.
Police said officers learned a woman had been sexually assaulted and a man had been stabbed during the ordeal.
Police and television news helicopters remained over the scene for hours. The Promenade remained closed throughout the day.
Hostages were taken to the Los Angeles Police Department's Pacific Division to be interviewed.
From their home on 75th Street, Westchester residents Carol and Doug Ziegler could hear the commotion at the shopping complex overnight and see police activity from their front window. By morning, Doug Ziegler said he had walked down the street to see what happened.
"We were up all night with the helicopters, so curiosity got the better of me," he said.
During the morning rush hour, northbound Sepulveda Boulevard traffic was backed up around The Promenade, where police blocked the entrances with yellow tape. News vans were camped out nearby.
Ziegler said years ago residents in close proximity to the shopping center were worried about crime there, but not so much in recent years.
"In the early days there really was a concern because there were a lot of lowlifes hanging out down there," he said, "Somehow they got it turned around. … I think that whole thing has been flourishing."

When Sue took me to Rococo Chocolates, it was the mug in the window that made my heart skip...
Yes, I bought it.
Carol... Now you have touched my weakest spot! My legs go weak when I see tea cups and tea sets.
I could never leave any of them behind, like you did. Instead, I'd buy 2 of each in case I wanted to leave as present, and keep one for me.
Is there any website that sells the cups you showed here today? Please, let me know.
What is it about cups? There's something about choosing which one to use each day. My husband laughs at how particular I am about this... I have a cupboard full (yes, all three shelves) of mugs & cups from all over the place. I buy them everywhere. I only have two that match and that is only because they were a gift...and I love them both :-)ReplyDelete
I love it! These cups are all wonderful! I send you a kiss, and if you can please pu translator in your blog, and I'm not very good with my English as I read ..... and I really enjoy your notes. I would then know about your work, to choose and buy one ...... In October I will travel to France and Spain. where you are?ReplyDelete
I had to shield my eyes through most of the post. "Must not look...no more room....must not look."
Oh I am envious of French Girl getting that Lovebird cup and saucer. That got my heart pitter pattering. :))ReplyDelete
I guess I'm the only one who is satisfied looking & not buying. I do love them but when you live in an apt. it does force you to choose. I think that's good. And how nice for your giftees....plus, you know that they have good homes. My mum collected tea cups & saucers & I can tell everyone, when it gets out of hand, it's not pretty.
As for someone asking about buying things online...just use the Googley-tubes with the names. Liberty & nearly everyone else has a site (& their own blogs, fer heaven's sake). Cannot decide if this is a good thing, a bad thing, or neutral.
Ciao-meow, C.
Susan & GG
Oh, cupaholism is a major problem here. I have cups tucked in drawers and cabinets all over creation. It's definitely a sickness. Lovely, Carol--that shot of the bow cup in the window is charming--did you paint it?ReplyDelete
In all fairness, you really need to post a little warning at the top of your blog:
Warning: may be hazardous to your wallet and your weight! Posts have been known to incite major acquisition sprees.
Your teacup-aholism is highly contagious! I am the stage in life when I wish to divest myself of the decades of acquired "Stuff". But now, I want that Harrod's mug and the Angelina, and the one you passed up...and even the rose in that still life!! With a couple of macs on the side, please.
Every once in awhile I go back to my series of still-life paintings, each featuring the same old Diner coffee mug. Friday nights in S. Jersey were Diner nights, after bowling.
Not at all tre' elegant...but what
can one expect from a S. Jersey Boy?
Could be worse Carol....I like your cupaholism very mush.....xvReplyDelete
... Carol, you still in London? Article online yesterday Wash Post on Eating in London .. I'm sure you have it all scoped out, but thought I would mention. Love the passion fruit tart post, such eye candy.ReplyDelete
the cup and saucer hang up i totally get! so clever of you to "recycle" them as hostess gifts. and i can now say that i am totally in love with miss (ms?) henny? i would love to have her around for those moments when a little no-calorie "pickmeup" is required!
and yes after this post, someone might have to do like a phd on what teacups mean to females and why!
Clicked on your blog link from someone's else's blogroll, who I visited after they were kind enough to comment on my blog. Small world, huh? Anyway, "Paris Breakfast", sigh, I hope to one day experience it.
These cups are fantastic. I would have came home with all of them.
These cups are divine! I know a few cupaholics myself actually, they can barely close their cupboard doors.ReplyDelete

This is a story that was posted on the WKYC.com website:
Jewelry is always a big seller for Valentine's Day, but for many "diamonds" are not in the budget.
Now there is a new 'type' of colored diamond not found in a mine but grown in a lab.
It's got all the brilliance of a 'natural' stone, but costs a whole lot less!
If diamonds are a girl's best friend, a discounted diamond could earn them a spot in the family.
So, for those looking for a fancy colored diamond, cultured diamonds may get you more bang for your bling.
"A cultured diamond has the same characteristics as a natural diamond. Same hardness, same refractive index, same brilliance."
But cost about two-thirds less.
Gary Kleinhenz, who is the president of Kleinhenz Jewelers in Westlake says, these diamonds don't come from the ground
They are grown in a lab.
"It's created under the same conditions that diamonds are underneath the ground."
The Gemesis cultured diamond making laboratory in Sarasota, Florida are where the diamonds are made.
The process starts with a tiny diamond seed that is placed in a growth chamber.
The chamber is capable of generating the 850,000 pounds per square inch of pressure and 2,700 degrees of heat necessary to make one diamond every four days.
"It is just crystals that grow upon crystals to create a larger piece of rough. The rough diamond is sent to the cutter to be polished into what you see in finished jewelry."
When you put a cultured diamond on a diamond tester- it registers as a diamond.
And when we held it under a blue light, you could see the the seed the diamond grew from, right in the center.
"The nucleus of a Gemesis diamond is a piece of diamond."
Right now you can only get them in yellow and orange.
Other colors will be available soon.
Industry leaders don't expect them to replace the white diamonds everybody loves.
"I think most people want the whitest diamond they can find and fancy colored diamonds are almost for a right handed ring or a cocktail ring, moreso than the engagement ring."
The Gemesis diamonds are certified by the Gemological Institute of America.
The key here is to know when you are buying one.
Make sure you are dealing with a knowledgeable jeweler who offers full-disclosure about where the diamond came from.

The styling duo created the Current/Elliott denim label in 2007 and infused the line with a Dust Bowl era grit and classic tomboy spirit think slouchy silhouettes and railroad stripes with vintage washes and a sense of whimsy that has become the foundation of their aesthetic as designers and brand collaborators.

'The Bachelorette' recap: A marionette admits his love for Emily June 26, 2012 By Amy Kaufman With hometown dates rapidly approaching, our "Bachelorette" knew it was time to get down to business in Prague during this week's episode. So did she ask her remaining suitors about their approach to child rearing? Grill them to see if they'd be open to moving to North Carolina with her? Ask if any of them have a 401(k)? Nay. She decided to figure out who the best kisser was. Listen, I get that the woman needed to get her rocks off. She is the chief architect of the what stores carry kate spade company's digital strategy, managing product development, revenue development, and audience acquisition. She spearheads media partnerships with content companies, social networks and academia, and fosters a company culture of experimentation and innovation.

'Bachelorette' recap: Emily forgoes fantasy suite in Curaao July 10, 2012 By Amy Kaufman OK, before I get into Monday's marvelous non overnight date episode of "The Bachelorette," a disclaimer: I knew Sean was going home Monday.

But more on that later. So even though I was aware Sean wasn't going to last long in Curaao, I couldn't help but root for the guy when he showed up in the kind of super low cut V neck that inspired that recent "Saturday Night Live" skit.

Wait, kilts? That's Scotland. But as part of a shameless promotion for Disney's new animated film "Brave" which is set in Scotland Emily's suitors wore man skirts while shooting bows and arrows.

I arrived at camp not too long ago and when they searched my car,one of the guys asked immediately "where's the weed?". They said that if we took it out and gave it to them they'd "yellow card" us and let us off with a warning. We didn't have any, they didnt find any, but as soon as they gave up I heard the CSC guy on the walkie say that we were yellow carded and to keep an eye out for us and anyone we interacted with.
Now I don't intend to have anything illegal on me at any time. I also know I can handle myself under the influence. Does anyone know what I should expect as a result of this? I don't see how they can conduct more in depth searches at the gate since they scan bands AFTER searches but that's the only reasonable thing I could think of.
