From far away the garden is empty as a hand
— EXCERPT FROM Beloved Again
BY Méira Cook
André du Bouchet
An unjustly neglected giant of French literature — and obliquely, of several other literatures as well — André du Bouchet was one of the greatest innovators of twentieth-century letters. Trailblazing poet, maverick philosopher, multifarious critic, trenchant stylist, fearless anthologist, daring editor, prolific diarist, intrepid translator in four languages, tireless explorer of nature and the visual arts, he was an authentic iconoclast who has yet to receive his due, especially in the English-speaking world. This anomaly seems all the more inexplicable, given his dazzling renditions of Shakespeare, Joyce, and Faulkner into French. We should also mention his lifelong attachment to the classic authors of nineteenth-century America, particularly Hawthorne and Melville; and in most of his writings, the elliptical syntax and halting dashes of Dickinson inform every page.

Philosophy taught me more about questions than about answers. In that sense, there was nothing literary about it, although it had everything to do with books and reading. Nietzsche had already been an important author for me in my adolescence and, naively enough, I had the impression that all philosophy would be like his: passionate, angry and almost poetical.

Arabic spontaneously imposes itself on French when I write my own work, despite the impression that these two languages fight against eachother in my head, each one wanting to impose its form on the other. The problem becomes different when I translate Arabic poets, especially the poet Adonis. The French language is being narrowed over time…

There must have been quite a bonfire. A thick plume of smoke must have risen into the still air of a sunny summer day in 1918, on the family estate in Normandy that Madeleine had inherited and where she lived for the most part without the company of her footloose husband. This last time when Gide had left her, he had gone too far, writing a dreadful note in which he said he was "rotting away," all his "vitality ebbing away… I was dying there and I wanted to live… I had to live and that meant escaping from there, travelling, meeting new people, loving people, creating!" And so while Gide was away, loving and living and travelling, Madeleine had taken the key to the desk in which the letters he had written her were carefully stored. She had taken those letters out, read them for one last time, and then consigned them to the flames.

Until 1998, I had mainly been learning about Tibet, Tibetan Buddhism and Tibetan culture in India and the Himalayas. Much of what I'd learned had come from talking to people and physically being in those places. Arriving in Oxford gave me a new experience of encountering Tibet, and ideas about Tibet, through a set of objects. For my first book about Tibetan visual culture after 1959, I had spent a lot of time interviewing Tibetan artists and had looked at their artworks in the places that they were made for, but in Oxford I was seeing museum objects completely disconnected from the people who had made or originally used them.

Author of The Museum on the Roof of the World

One thing I admire about the Japanese character is that people aren't overly dramatic. They don't exaggerate failures or successes. If something bad happens you won't find them moaning or complaining about their fate. They quietly get down to business to make things better. By the same token, they don't get overly excited about their successes either. People are humble.
When the earthquake, tsunami, and the explosions at the Fukushima nuclear power plant happened, everyone was understandably shocked and saddened and afraid. However, it felt like there was no wasted emotion on dramatics. There were rolling blackouts, shortages of all kinds, plenty of things to get upset about and complain about. But all effort was directed to helping those up in the Tohoku region. It was very impressive, very admirable.

Fiction Writer Thersa Matsuura
BY Greta Aart AND Thersa Matsuura
United States
My relationship to God, or the Divine, or the Universe, whatever you want to call it, has always been rather rocky. I can never get comfortable with one set of ideas about the divine, or one practice. When I hear how people want set rules and how they get comfort from staid ideas (in religion), I can never ever identify with that.
My relationship to the universe has been defined by confusion and chaos, great love too, and hope. Also much doubt. I have gone through many phases. As you mention, my memoir narrates my young life as the child of a minister and then my falling away from church, and then in my thirties coming back to an interest in theology, and ideas of God. Since I finished that book I have had many more phases and ideas.

Mongolia and Tibet have been deeply intertwined for hundreds of years, though their geography and language differ. Mongolian culture originates in the world's largest steppe, where shallow rivers diverge to flow either north into the Siberian taiga or east into the plains of Manchuria and China, and where animal husbandry rather than agriculture has been the basis of life. The Mongolian language is Altaic, related to various Turkic languages spoken across Central Asia. Tibetan culture is centered in the Himalayan plateau, a region of the world's highest mountains, containing agricultural river valleys and arid lake regions.

The esteemed Mexican poet, translator, and editor Pura López-Colomé walks the border between perception and imagination in her Villarrutia Prize winning collection Santo y Seña, carried over into English by Forrest Gander as Watchword. Gander, a poet in his own right, attempts to ease us into our encounter with López-Colomé in his Translator's Preface, where he points out that the literal meaning of Santo y Seña ("Saint and Sign") presents a telling issue, for the phrase has idiomatic meanings: "shibboleth," Gander says, or "watchword."

Picture number one: I lay in a box and rest. Forever. I thought western science would find some clever way to dispose of my body. It turns out western science doesn't attend to the dead, and so I end up impaled on the horns of a dilemma like Manolete on the horns of a bull: I rot or I get burned; either way I end up in a container. Whether this or the other has been the subject of many late-night talks with my daughter Yelena: Well, Mamita, you can't have it both ways.

Brooklyn-based novelist Siri Hustvedt engages in art criticism with interdisciplinary findings from psychoanalysis, neuroscience, philosophy, literature, and more.

Drawing inspiration from George Sand's writings, correspondence and other autobiographical texts, this literary biography is a sympathetic revelation of Sand's love relationship with engraver and dramatist, Alexandre Manceau. Although lesser-known than Musset, Chopin and Mérimée, Manceau was Sand's last lover, credited for having brought harmony and peace to her turbulent romantic life. He died in 1865 at the age of forty-eight. Contemporary French writer Bloch-Dano has also written biographies of Flora Tristan (Flora Tristan, La Femme-messie), Jeanne Weil Proust (Madame Proust), and Alexandrine Zola (Madame Zola).

John Gregory Dunne begins, "In general, it is bad business for writers to talk about writing." This book is based on a lecture series at Columbia University where leading industry practitioners take on the "business" to share about editing and creating magazines.

Gold bulls give up: COT Report
Looking at this week's COT report, long crude oil and short Swiss franc are once again in extreme territory. This is shown below:
CFTC COT (futures & options combined) – December 5, 2017
Notable extremes are bolded, and are highlighted when speculator positioning is more than two standard deviations above historical trailing 1-year and 3-year trends.
Changes in speculator positions are fairly limited this week. Beyond a drop in Canadian dollar and crude oil net positions, there are few big changes. The most notable change is the substantial decrease in both gold open interest (down by 25,318 contracts versus last week) and gold net positions (down by 55,142 contracts versus last week). While gold speculators had been doubting the inflation outlook in earlier weeks (unlike yen and Swiss franc traders), they now appear to be capitulating.
Gold speculator positions have lagged prices this year
Looking at how gold traders have been positioned during the past year, the consensus has failed to position themselves correctly ahead of large moves. Gold speculators were long gold in a big way ahead of the US presidential elections last year. As gold prices sold off sharply following Trump's victory, speculators were slow to reduce their net long positions.
By the middle of July 2017, speculators had reduced their positions substantially in anticipation of further gold weakness. Instead, gold surged from the low $1,200s to $1,350 by early September. By the time speculators had built up their long positions in the middle of September, gold had started trending down. From its most recent peak above $1,350, gold prices closed at $1,248 last Friday. This is shown below:
Missing the big moves
More recently, gold speculators have once again been caught on the wrong side of the trend. While speculator positions increased in late November, gold had already started to sell off.
Changes at the Federal Reserve not likely to drive gold in the short-term
While the US dollar has weakened significantly relative to gold over the past 100 years, gold has been fairly stable during Yellen's term. In a broader commentary on the US Federal Reserve, we argued that Janet Yellen's policies have been largely appropriate looking at gold prices as a measure of US dollar liquidity. While this doesn't absolve the Fed's poor historical track record in maintaining the purchasing power of the dollar, it does suggest that recent policies have been suitable for the current high growth environment.
Of course, the real test for any central bank is when prevailing economic conditions are not so benign. Looking at history, the Fed has mostly avoided hiking rates when growth is weak and inflation is accelerating. This explains why gold prices are the strongest when the market begins doubting the Fed's resolve to hike rates. As Jerome Powell is likely to maintain Yellen's policies and US GDP growth remains strong, the precious metal is unlikely to gain support from looser monetary policies in the short-term. Once growth inevitably slows down in 2018 and beyond, a new gold bull market is likely to emerge.


text: Hi there, So I bought an Mbox a couple of years ago and only used it a few times with my old G4 ibook on Panther. I now own a 24" intel imac and I'm trying to figure out how much I need to spend to get a working copy of Pro Tools for intel. My Mbox comes with Pro Tools 5.2.1, 6.1 and 6.2.2 and they all are PPC only. So is there a free upgrade to the universal binary version with what I have now? I see the free upgrade to CoreAudio Drivers but that I guess just allows my computer to use Pro Tools if I have a mactel if I don't install Pro Tools? Which I don't understand entirely. If there is no free upgrade to a working universal binary with what I've got then where should I pick up the upgrade? And what's a reasonable price to expect then? Also, if anyone else did this and has any tips I would sure appreciate them. Thanks

Amazon start suing people for fake product reviews on their website
Last modified: October 19 2015
Amazon, the world's largest online marketplace, is suing more than 1,000 people who it accuses of offering to write fake reviews on its website.
The web giant filed a lawsuit against 1,114 alleged fake reviewers, who it says are tarnishing its brand reputation with "false, misleading and inauthentic" reviews, GeekWire reports.
It claims the defendants - named as "John Does", the American term for an unidentified person - offer their false review service for as little as five dollars (£3.25) on the website Fiverr.com.
Amazon has a list of all the defendants' Fiverr account names and is seeking a court judgement to identify the people behind them.
It is one of the biggest legal actions seeking to uncover hidden identities on the internet, according to The Sunday Times.
The company says it conducted an extensive investigation, which included purchasing fake customer reviews on Fiverr. Those who offered reviews often promised five-star ratings and offered to let the purchaser write the review themselves.
Earlier this year, Amazon sued several websites suspected of selling fake reviews.
The legal action says: "Amazon is bringing this action to protect its customers from this misconduct, by stopping defendants and uprooting the ecosystem in which they participate.
"Although Amazon has successfully requested removal of similar listings from Fiverr in the past, the removal of individual listings does not address the root cause of the issue or serve as a sufficient deterrent to the bad actors engaged in creating and purchasing fraudulent product reviews."

At any rate, here we are at Show and Tell, because, it is, you know, Friday! If you haven't already, you might want to run over to Kelli's and get in on the fun. It's really not too late--I hope! Kelli is the creative lady over at There Is No Place Like Home.
My treasure for today is brand new!
Several years ago my husband suggested we start a collection. Somehow he had heard about Dept.56 and was fascinated by the idea of a New England Village. We had been on a summer trip to Maine and Massachusetts and were newly in love with that area of the country. So, we made a trip to a local store and picked out a lighthouse as the first building for our village. A tradition was born!
Since then we have added a building every year. Those, and a few figurines, are a cherished part of our Christmas decorations. I will show you the village when we go on the Christmas Tour of Homes with BooMama on Dec. 17. I know you plan on being a part of those festivities!
Anyway--This year we made a selection for the 2007 addition to the village. We chose a Flag Shop. It is very cute and will fit right in. However, that's not my treasure!
After we decided on that building, Lee found this cute print shop/newspaper--The Woodbridge Gazette. He ordered it, also. He knew I would love it. My Dad owned and operated two small town newspapers when I was a teenager. I spent many hours helping out at the Chillicothe (TX) Valley News. Lee was right--I love this delightful little shop!
Now, granted, my dad's place was not an 1801 version of a print shop. However, it was definitely old fashioned compared to today's computerized printing processes. I remember the old linotype machine and printing press. My Dad also hand-set a lot of his headlines and ads.
Take a look at this little "take-a-peek" window in the front of the Gazette.
Can you see the printer hand-setting some type! That could be my Dad--a century and a half later! I will really enjoy including this little print shop in the village this year along with the school, post office, church, lighthouse, etc. that we have collected over the years?
Update on my husband's computer--It has had a MAJOR MELTDOWN! The current prognosis is that it can be revived with major part replacements. It will take a few days. In the meantime we will be sharing or I will have to venture into "the scary room." That would be our home office that gets little use these days. I only go in there when I must. There is no telling what is in there! :-) The desktop computer hides out there. It has been so long since it has been used I don't know if it'll work. I may give it a try. If you don't hear from me for several days, send a search team! :-)

I'm a little late today, but here is my list of special things in my life that begin with N.
Nativity--The story of the Nativity is the most precious story.
What a glorious gift we were given on that night so long ago!
Naps--Taking a nap is a treat--especially on a cold or rainy Sunday afternoon. An afternoon nap is a gift you give yourself!
Napkins--Cloth or Paper--It really doesn't matter. If I'm using a napkin it probably means I have food to eat. We take it for granted. Unfortunately, for some having adequate food seems a luxury.
Nose--Although mine doesn't always work as well as I might like, it is a handy thing to have. It allows us the joy of savoring our favorite smells. Smells like. . . cookies baking, hamburgers grilling, lavender spray on clean sheets, sweet babies just after a bath, little boys who have been rolling in the grass, little girls who have gotten into grandmother's "smell good stuff," chocolate cake, chocolate ANYTHING, and . . .
Necklaces--Everyone can stand to have a little bling in their life!--Right? :-)

This is a part of what I've been doing for the last few days. I'm sure you can relate!
I am almost finished with the decorating agenda for the year. The first things I put up were these two wreaths. I love them so much because they were made for us by a dear friend the year we moved to this house. This is the tenth year for them to greet friends and family to our home. I have considered replacing them, but have decided that If I do just a little more sprucing up they will make it through this year.
All my decorating will be finished in time for this:
I would love to see what Christmas looks like at your house!
Some people are not going to believe this! I'm going to share a recipe! I know. I know. Somehow there is rumor among people I know IRL that I do not cook. Not true! I do. I especially enjoy cooking this time of year. I just have never cared for the idea of "fixin' (as we say in the South) supper!
So, for all the non believers--Here goes! I made these bread loaves for the sweet ladies in my Monday night Bible Study. We had some cranberry cookies a couple of times that they loved, So--I thought they might enjoy this little treat as an end-of-study/Christmas gift. What a precious group of women! I loved every minute I spent with them. Monday night just won't be the same--until we start another study after Christmas.
Cranberry Banana Nut Bread
1-1/3cups sugar
3 eggs
2 cups mashed bananas--about 4 large
3-1/2 cups Self-Rising Flour
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 cup chopped nuts--I use pecan/ walnut would also be good
16 oz. can whole cranberry sauce
1. Heat oven to 350*F. Grease--or spray--bottoms of two 8x4 inch loaf pans.
2. In large bowl, cream shortening and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
3. Add bananas, flour, soda, nuts and cranberry sauce, stir gently to blend. Pour batter into prepared pan.
4. Bake at 350*F for 1 hour or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cook in pans 10 minutes. Remove from pans. Cool on wire rack. For easier slicing, wrap loaves and store overnight in a cool place.
I like this recipe because it easily makes two good sized loaves. I have a good recipe that uses fresh berries. This recipe uses the whole berry sauce so chopping berries is not required. Since I needed eight loaves this was much quicker than using fresh berries--and still good! I actually made six small loaves with one recipe. So, if you're in the neighborhood, I have a couple of extras. Drop by--I'll gladly share!
Here they are all wrapped and ready!
But, nevertheless--look at this recipe I found after I was already making that batch of bread loaves!
Cranberry-Orange Bread
1 cup nut-like cereal nuggets (Grape-Nuts)
1 cup uncooked regular oats
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/3cup sugar
1/2 tsp. baking aoda
1/2 cup nonfat buttermilk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 tsp. grated orange rind
1/2 cup low-sugar orange marmalade
1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries
1. Combine first 6 ingredients in a large bowl, make a well in center of mixture.
2. Whisk together buttermilk, oil, and eggs, add to dry mixture, stirring just until moistened. gently fold in grate orange rind, marmalade, and cranberries. Spoon into a lightly greased 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch loaf pan.
3. Bake at 375* for 28 to 32 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack 5 minutes. Remove from pan to wire rack, and let cool 20 minutes or until completely cool.
I found that one in Southern Living. I think it sounds like a tasty as well as healthy choice. I may give it a try--after I find homes for these last few loaves in my basket! :-)
Yes, I am definitely enjoying preparations for this season. I have shopping online to do, more baking, a little more decorating, some blogging fun to participate in, and plenty of IRL traditions to savor and cherish. I pray that, through all the busyness of the season, my family and I will retain our focus on the reason for the traditions and activities--the very precious reason for the celebration.

Carolyn tolerated her surgery well and is recovering from the procedure. However, the surgery was not as successful at eliminating the cancer as we had hoped. Please continue to pray that her doctors will be led to the treatment that can provide a cure. We still pray for miracles.
I'm asking all of my blogging friends to pray for this precious little, twelve-year-old girl. Her name is Carolyn--Her mother Adrianne is in this picture with her. Her dad, Jeff is my nephew. Carolyn has a younger brother, Jacob. They live in the Houston, Texas area.
Carolyn has a very rare form of cancer that she has been battling for over two years. For several months she was "cancer-free." However, it returned with aggression about the time school started this year. She will have surgery tomorrow, November 21. This is not the first surgery she has had since the beginning of this journey. This surgery is, of course, a very serious point in her treatment.
Carolyn has fought this battle with great courage and faith. Her family has fought valiantly along with her. However, it has been a long and hard journey. She, her parents, and her younger brother would appreciate your prayers. I am praying for miracles. peace, and strength. Please join me in lifting Carolyn and her family up.
Pray continually.

For many years we went to a nearby state resort--just across the state line in Kentucky. I always considered it our family fall retreat. We went there almost every Thanksgiving for more than twenty years. We started going when our boys were very young and continued through the addition of daughters-in-law and grandchildren. Some years we were all there, sometimes it was just part of us, and a couple of times times Lee and I were by ourselves. We have many wonderful family memories of those trips to Lake Barkley.
Life has changed; in recent years we have spent the holiday at home. Our family was all together at our house last weekend. We enjoyed a non-traditional Thanksgiving dinner. BAR-B-QUE! We were traditional enough to have turkey in the form of this cute CHOCOLATE cake!
We didn't take a lot of pictures this year. I guess we were to intent on talking, eating, and playing. As I looked through the pictures, I realized that this is the best one of the day. Lee and I are never happier than when we have all four grandchildren with us!
Ella,Luke, Spoony, and Joshua!
What a group!
I hope you had a great and peaceful day with people you love!

Hm-m-m-m- Let's see, I'm sure there are some things in my life that I enjoy or treasure that start with the letter M. Oh yes, here we go!
1. Memories--I enjoy looking at photos from years gone by. What a flood of memories those pictures can bring. Of course, we can't stay in the world of memories. There are too many things that need to be done, and enjoyed in the present. But it is certainly nice to take an occasional side trip to the past and think fondly of those people, places, events, and things.
2. M and M Candy--Well, almost anything chocolate is totally terrific. This is just one example of chocolate goodness. AND--You know, it "melts in your mouth, not in your hand!"
3. Memes--Blogging is a wonderful hobby, pastime, diversion, etc. I'm glad I stumbled into this wonderful, friendly, sometimes wacky world. Memes help me get to know my blogging friends better.
4. Marriage--I have had an exciting journey for over 38 years with a wonderful man. I never could have expected or imagined the adventures, challenges, and blessings that we have experienced together.
5. Mexican Food--Good eating!
6. Marbles--You play Chinese checkers with marbles. Both of my six-year-old grandsons have recently discovered the game of Chinese checkers. Luke and Spoony are delightful and I love playing this and other games with them. Spoony and I are planning to challenge his brother, Joshua, and Luke to a game when we are together at Christmas.
7. Mail--Snail mail, email, and packages--I love all kinds! Actually, I can do without the Spam and junk kind! :-)
8. Mocha--As in White Chocolate from Starbucks. 'Nuff said!
9. Mattress--A good, comfortably firm one is my preference. Think I'll go find mine and go to sleep soon!

or you brought forth the earth and the world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
Psalm 69:30
I will praise God's name in song
and glorify him with thanksgiving.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving
and his courts with praise:
give thanks to him and raise his name.

Many people predicted that the fall colors that we enjoy every year would not be very vibrant. It appeared, for awhile, that those people might be right. We usually hit the peak of the color season several weeks before now. This year, however, the trees changed color very slowly. Some of them just seemed to be losing leaves with little change in color.
THEN, just a day or two ago, I began noticing a difference in the Autumn Glory Maple tree in our backyard. I began to think that, maybe, there was hope for color after all. This is what I saw off our deck yesterday:
Last night we had a storm--lightening, thunder, rain, and wind. The temperature dropped significantly during the night. I just knew the storm would strip the trees of the leaves before we had really gotten our fill of the color that was beginning to really pop!
This afternoon, as I drove through the neighborhood--This is what I saw:

On Sunday afternoons my older son, Greg, normally comes over to visit with his dad so that I can run to the grocery store and have a little time to do some of the things that need to be done. Often, Luke comes with him. The three men have an afternoon together.
This week when I got ready to go, guess what? My car didn't want to go! So--This little scenario took place in our driveway!
"OK. This is how it works."
Luke gets a basic electric current lesson and instructions in how to hold the jumper cable clamps.
"Be careful! Don't let these things touch!"
Greg gave Luke VERY clear instructions about how to hold those cable ends. He was rather vivid about what could happen if they touched. No way was Luke going to let those things get close to each other!
"Stand back while I attach them over here!"
"Oh, I get it, Dad! You're putting power from your truck into Grandmama's car."
with the vehicles and the camera!
Just a few minutes later I was on my way. They were ready for an afternoon of ice cream, football, and Chinese Checkers (Luke's new favorite game). What great guys!

"Are you sure you want to delete Housework permanently?
6. Calmly answer,
"Yes," and press mouse button firmly...

Here's my list of possibilities. At least they are my possibilities at this time. I may find others that also interest me. I will read at least two of these and add them to my Fall Into Reading list. In addition, I'll be reading some Christmas books--some new and some old favorites--with the grands.

Ella is at that very precious stage of life when a child can say the sweetest--or the "darndest" things. Ella is very exuberant and thoroughly enjoys life. I hope she never loses that characteristic.
Yesterday her mother came by our house to get Ella's brother, Luke . He had been spending some time with us after school. She left Ella in the car when she ran in to say hello to Lee. So, I went out to speak to the princess. She exuberantly greeted me--as if she had not seen me for months-- by throwing her arms out for a hug and yelling "GRANMAMA!"
Then, her very sweet little voice, she said, "How's Poppy today? Does he want to see me?"
She is very sure that seeing her would make his day. And--she's correct!
A couple of months ago Ella, and the people who live with her, came over to visit on a Sunday afternoon. She obviously had the Bible story from Sunday School on her mind. She said, "Sit down, Granmama. I'm goin' to read you a story."
Of course, I sat down. Never pass up the chance to have a three year-old "read" or tell you a story!
She picked up my Bible, opened it to the middle and proceeded to "read" the story. It went something like this. (Try to imagine the sweet little lisping voice of a three-year-old who doesn't quite have all the speech sounds or the grammatical nuances of pronouns, etc. mastered.)
"Moses was a little baby. He was in a basket. Uh, Granmama, do you know he Mama name?"
My mind went blank, so I stuttered a little as I replied, "It's, uh,--I can't remember, but his sister's name was Miriam. Didn't she watch him in the basket?" (Believe me, I looked it up later--Jochebed--Exodus 6:20; Numbers 26:59)
Ella looked at the Bible and said, "That's right. He sister name Mirum. He mama name sumpin else. And he in the basket."
"Uh, granmama, what he granfather name?"
"Well," I answered, "Ella, I'm not sure the Bible tell us that."
Now, it may be in some "begats" somewhere, but I wasn't going there with her! Besides I wanted to know what would happen next!
"Oh, Granmama, you know! He grandfather Jesus!"
"Now, Ella, Jesus was not Moses' grandfather."
Before I could go further she exclaimed, "Oh, yes it is! But what Jesus daddy name?"
"That would be Joseph."
"And, Granmama, what Jesus mama name?"
"Oh, that's right! Joseph he daddy and Mary he mama!"
"Now! Moses in the basket with he grandfather. Moses in the basket with Jesus, Mary and Joseph!"
With that she closed the Bible and looked at me with a smile of accomplishment. She had "read" me a Bible story.
That must have been some basket! I know Ella will get all those people straightened out someday. She will learn the difference in Old Testament and New Testament. She will learn the true story of Jesus and know that he died on the cross for her. She may even be able to remember Moses' mother's name when her grandchild asks someday! For now, I just thank God that she has parents who make sure she is having the opportunity to hear and learn those stories. She is blessed. She is a blessing.

I have trouble saying, "No!"--to books!
I was in tar*get the other day; taking care of business and in a hurry! I know better than to walk by a book display in any store. However, this particular time it was the shortest way to the area of the store I needed. Notice, I did not say the quickest way. because, of course, my eye was caught by a particular display.
There.It.Was. I know. I should have just kept walking and put the title on my Christmas Wish List--My husband ALWAYS gets me some books. But, I HAVE NO WILL POWER WHEN IT COMES TO BOOKS--especially Jan Karon books with Father Tim and possibly other Mitford friends in them! At least it was 30% off! (I know--but, it's a way to justify. OK? Let me live with my illusions!) No will power, I'm telling you! None.
This is the next book I'm reading!
AND--I'm going to enjoy every word of it!
So, what are you reading now?

Of course that means Show and Tell fun!
Kelli is the host.
You can go here to get in on all the fun!
Today I'm sharing a new treasure!
Well, yes! A friend from Bloggityville, USA!
How exciting!
in Becky's giveaway celebrating her 200th post at The Butler's Wife!
She made it, ya'll!
Wonder what how it would look on my dining room table.
This candle may be a little large--and it definitely needs some greenery!
How about a little sleigh with holly leaves and berries around a candle?
Let's take it in there and try it.
I usually have Santa on this table.
I can just imagine the chubby ole' gentleman
standing right in the middle of the runner!
It will be moved to a spot behind a couch
to make room for the tree in this area.
Now it is a place for displaying pictures of the grands.
At Christmas, it usually has Santas, Snowmen,
and a collection of pictures from past Christmases.
The runner could be a good addition to that display.
WELL! Can you believe it! Santa is so eager for me to put that table runner and all the other decorations out. He's trying to sneak in here before we have even have had Thanksgiving! Sorry, Santa! We're going to have to wait just a little longer!
is the Christmas Tour of Homes that Boomama! will be hosting.

Be sure to come by here on the tour
and find out where the table runner
will be spending the holidays.

Accounts receivables can be calculated by investment cost when the sales are in cash only.
It can be calculatedby evaluating the credits that are given to the customers. It has a great impact on administrative cost, financial cost and risk factors.
For collecting the payment against the every sale company has to spend some amount of money such as for traveling, giving commissions, etc.

Microsoft access
- You are creating a database for donations that are made to different non-for-profit agencies by different individuals. The database is made of three tables: Contributors (the list of donors with information about them), Donations (the list of generous gifts) and Agencies (the list of non-for profit organizations that receive gifts).
- Download all the files from the Midterm folder. Remember: it is best to first save them on your local computer before you open them and start working on them.
- Open the database named RRGroup. It comes with the Contributors table. This is the one you are going to do all work.
- Populate the Agency table with data from Agency text file.
- Examine the Gifts Excel file and based on that file design the third table (headings, primary key, data type). Save it as Donations. Populate it with data from the Gifts file. Remember about the Primary Key.
- Establish relationships between all three tables. Do all that is necessary to have them established. All of them must be "One-To-Many".
- Create a form for the Contributors table. Be sure it displays only one record at a time. Save it.
- Create a query with the following data:
- Name of the Agency
- Number of donors.
- Average amount of donation.
- i. Name this query "Average Gift"
- Create another query with the following data:
- Donor's last name
- Agency name
- Agency's city. Provide ability to enter the city you want to view in the query
- Amount of donation. You want to see donations over $50.
- You want to see those donations that need to be picked up.
- i. Attention: all the criteria must be "AND" – this query should display only those donors that gave gifts to agencies from an entered city and in the amount over $50 and gave gifts that need to be picked up.
- ii. Name this query "Gifts in a City"
10. One more query. This time no criteria, only 3 fields: Donor's last name, Agency Name and amount of donation. Save it as "Query for report".
11. Create a report for the "Query for report". Make sure that records are listed by Contributors. All other settings can be left as the default ones. Name the report: List of Contributions.

They run a confidential service where they offer very high quality writing services to the student community. They offer them at a good price and they currently have a very good online reputation because of it. They run their service on a very secure network so that no other third party may gain access to the system and know you used the service. SameDayEssay is an established company that has set up safeguards so that deadlines are not missed and so that students are always satisfied with the work they receive. They are very good, very popular and charge very reasonable SameDayEssay ratings.
Writing Quality
You may get to choose your own deadline, but how can they maintain the quality levels when you want your work so quickly? Some people think it is because the SameDayEssay company rushes the work and therefore you get a lower grade, but the fact is that the writer has already finished the qualification you are working on. Add that to the fact that the writer has to write about your subject many times per week, and add to the fact that the writer already knows what should be on the paper to score a good grade, and you come up with the answer. What you are getting is work from a highly qualified writer that writes essays for a living, and this is why you get great writing quality even if you only give the writers a very short deadline.
Your essay will be delivered with a free outline, free e-mail delivery, free title page, free customer support, free formatting, free amendments, and a free bibliography. That is all part of the service. You will get your essay as per the deadline, and it will be delivered via your email address.
Go to the SameDayEssay prices page and find the quotation tool. It shows you the total cost of your essay via a table. The quotation tool is free to use with no obligation to buy. One page at the standard quality will cost you $19.99 if you wait ten days for it. It will cost you $44.99 with a three-hour deadline. Those really are the extremes of their pricing plans, as there is a lot of middle ground where you can get a good price that suits your time scale. If you want higher grades, then go for the premium quality option. A premium essay page within 3 hours will only cost you $50.99 per page, which is not bad when you consider that it is only $7 more than the standard quality version.
Customer Support
You can call this essay writing service on the phone number that is listed on the top of the website homepage. Click on the contacts us link and you will find their online contact form that allows you to submit longer questions. The customer service department is very good at their job. It is obvious that they are highly trained and that they are very experienced.
Site Usage
Get them to write your admission essays, book report/review, lab report, results, reaction papers, literature reviews, movie review, case studies, introduction chapters, discussions, reference sections, article critique, results analysis, and your annotated bibliography. Those are just a few of the services that SameDayEssay offers and there are many more where that came from. They offer a wide range of services.

Mike Robertson
A student who overcame his own difficulties to help others has been named Highland Theological College UHI student of the year 2012. Mike Robertson (31) from Inverness has just completed a BA degree in theological studies.
Overcoming the challenges presented by having a visual impairment, Mike was commended for his excellent academic work, his determination to succeed and his dedication to others. On top of university work, family life and training to become a Church of Scotland minister, the father-of-three also found time to volunteer as a trustee of Carpathian Aid, a charity which works to tackle discrimination against disabled people in Romania. His support included encouraging a team of friends to travel to the country in July to attend a camp to help disabled and disadvantaged children.
Now he has completed his theological studies degree, Mike is undertaking the last year of his ministerial training as an assistant minister at Barn Church in Culloden. Speaking about his award he said: "Any degree level study, particularly the amount of reading required in theology, presents significant challenges for a visually impaired person.
"I went into survival mode at the outset, thinking the best I could do was scrape through. Receiving this award from the staff and friends who have supported me all that way is not just an unexpected surprise, but is in some ways even better than completing the BA itself.
"I don't feel any credit is due for my charity work as all I've done is follow my heart and passion. Again, I'm thankful to HTC because it was during my studies that I met fellow student Gary Torbet who founded Carpathian Aid in 1992. Our learning will equip us to be more effective mission workers for many years to come in our beloved second home, Romania."

I like to bake things that suit my mood and with the rubbish weather and dark nights who would ever turn down apple pie and ice cream? This flavour suggestion came from Kira and I'll be popping some of the new cake in the post for her to taste test later in the week.
But now it's confession time.......
I didn't really want new flavours, it was all a secret plot!
A friend of mine is turning 40 next week and I wanted to organise a special treat for her. I wanted her cake to be something she really fancied eating and could enjoy so I came up with the plan to ask for flavour help on Facebook! Luckily she completely fell for it and gave me a few suggestions. I even found out today how disappointed she was that she hadn't won the Facebook competition!
A group of us organised a surprise gathering today to celebrate the upcoming 40th birthday. After we enjoyed lunch the cake was brought out, chocolate and popcorn cake!
The cake was a caramel mud cake and was filled with a chocolate and popcorn filling. I also added popping candy to give extra 'pop'. The whole cake was then covered with chocolate ganache and simply decorated with toffee popcorn :-)
Happy 40th Birthday Belinda! Hope you enjoy the cake and have a lovely birthday xx

Forget it. You can no longer blame memory loss on getting older. So-called senior moments can also happen for people who are under extreme stress, suffering from a chronic disease, depressed, malnourished, inactive, overscheduled or just plain bored. If you are experiencing difficulty with memory, don't let it get you down. There are lots of things you can do to help preserve your brainpower and keep your mind sharp.
Whether it seems obvious or not, physical health plays a big role in mental health. Remaining physically active as you age will encourage oxygenated blood to reach the brain. Additionally, proper and balanced nutrition will provide natural chemicals and enzymes to keep your brain healthy. And proper sleep and rest will allow your brain to rest and function better.
Beyond that, myriad other pursuits can help grease the cogs, energize the brain and help with the flow of thoughts, including reading, social activities, puzzles, strategy games, entertainment and creative pursuits. There's no right or wrong choice. Think about your passions and skills, or perhaps passions and skills you'd like to explore. When you've chosen something, join a group or take a class. Free classes are often offered at libraries, senior centers and community colleges, not to mention online via webinars.
Card games such as solitaire, puzzles such as sudoku and crosswords, word scrambles, memory games, and cryptograms exercise the mind. There's a little something for everyone in that these activities are available in print and digital formats. Numerous computer cognitive brain exercises are available with or without access to the internet. Even the National Security Agency has lent an app to the mix: CryptoChallenge, which invites the user to crack a code. The app is free for download for iPhone and Android.
Lumosity is a well-known brainteaser site run by Lumos Labs. A team of researchers and game designers creates challenging cognitive and neuropsychological programs for both online and mobile use. They also offer free programs for all ages worldwide in English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean and Portuguese.
Fit Brains Trainer is a free brain-training app by Rosetta Stone Canada Inc. It's downloadable from iTunes and offers tons of games targeting major areas of the brain: memory, speed of thinking, concentration, problem-solving, language and visual-spatial. The user finishes a task in each category every day, and the app keeps a progress record.
Happify, another free app, offers activities and games for stress and anxiety support. It has quizzes, polls and gratitude journals, which work on the basis of positive psychology to control stress and emotions.
Stress and negative emotions affect memory and emotional and physical well-being. ReliefLink was designed to support and improve mental health, specifically to prevent suicide. In cases of extreme stress, the app helps by offering coping mechanisms and mindfulness and relaxation exercises. There is also a feature for listing medication and setting appointment reminders.
If you are looking for a way to learn and remember telephone numbers, bank information, quotes and useful facts, take a look at Eidetic for iOS systems. This free app uses spaced repetition and built-in flashcards to help you memorize important information.
Google terms like "brain games," "cognitive exercises" and "memory builders" to find many more online sites and downloadable apps. Some of these apps are free, others have free trials or free limited use, and others have generally low prices to register or download.
There may be some thought or memory loss with age, but keeping your brain busy will help to you keep the mobility, thought and independence that becomes very precious as you reach the golden years. If there is a concerning level of confusion or forgetfulness, it would be wise to consult your health care provider to make sure that there are no underlying health concerns, such as Alzheimer's disease or dementia.
It is a statistical fact that people who maintain a positive attitude generally live longer and healthier lives. It's never too early to begin exercising your brain. With these apps and activities, you'll be one step closer to feeling golden during your golden years.

A short ESRI animation explaining Geographic Information Systems in a specially didatic way. GIS is a system to record, analyze and present spatial information on maps, allowing better decision making using geography. Traders use GIS to choose the location of new stores to sell specific products to the local public. It's used by environmental organizations to mitigate the consequences of global warming. Electric companies use to locate specific parts that need repairs and to do them more efficiently. The police use it to identify patterns in criminal activities and plan operations more strategically. View information and trends is much easier on maps than spreadsheets. GIS is a software that runs on computers connected to powerful servers, which can now be accessed even by smartphones. GIS are informations about the real world divided into layers. Each layer contains informations of the same type.
In actual examples, Nike and Levis use GIS to expand its stores and to price their products. The Environmental Department of Ireland uses it to manage the conservation of national parks, maintaining biodiversity and historical monuments. The Department of Education of Ireland uses GIS to ensure the number of schools for children in certain neighborhoods. The Police Department of Northern Ireland was able to reduce crime statistics and also operating costs thanks to GIS. Resuming, better decisions from geography. Maps make sense.

I love Ava's art decorating my life. It makes me happy all day!
My windowsill: never free of my egg salt (and pepper) shakers and some random toys.
Clothes on the line. Anything better?
Maybe clothespins in a heart-shaped bowl. As if I could love laundry anymore!
Our wagon. Love.
The September Issue of Vogue. I haven't even cracked it yet. Waiting for the perfect moment alone.
More Ava and Jack art for me to enjoy. This metal board is from Ikea and we have it by our craft table in out living room/dayhome centre. So fun.
Our crazy cute wood chair from Kijiji.
Our new hooks for bags, hats, sweaters, etc. A big one for adults and a low one for kids. Peekaboo!
This "vase" used to be a lamp at my Oma and Opa's house. Now it's in Ava's room holding some beautiful silks from Dollarama.
Perfectly piled clothes in Ava's drawer. Will I ever tire of their adorable little clothes?
Ava's shirt we picked up for her Hello Kitty costume. And then, she can obviously wear it after. It has ruched sleeves, people!
Kids' bedding!! I love it. Our daycare kids bed.
Ava's bed with a quilt that I won.
My Ava.
Ava wanted me to include this picture of her dollie.
An empty bed with magazines and chic lit. Yes please.
Adorable storage bins from Winners.
A vintage 50s jewelry box we snagged for Ava at a Garage Sale.
This closet organizer from Ikea for all the random stuff I have no idea what else to do with. (Books I want to read, current purses, etc.)
My new polka dot pillow from Ikea.
No, this post was not sponsored by Ikea, but it could have been.

Amazing Blogger Award!
1. Favourite cartoon character: I totally don't have an interesting response for this. I don't, uh, watch cartoons. I'm gonna say Simon's cat.
2. Favourite thing to photograph: Food and my cats, especially Pablo. He's so photogenic.
3. Favourite thing to cook: Everything WF vegan? Hah, seriously I don't know. I like grain salads, beans, pasta dishes (veggie lasagne say whaaaat ;) ), grilling veggies... or, you know, just cutting up some fruit with a little bit of cinnamon, brown rice syrup, raisins and coconut flakes... or ribbon coconut. Omg. I can eat that by the handful.
4. Favourite way to exercise: REBOUNDING! Best thing ever, and so good for getting the lymphatic system moving.
5. Favourite movies: You've Got Mail, Kate & Leopold, Pride & Prejudice, 16 Candles, The Cove, Earthlings, FLOW: For the Love of Water, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Roman Holiday, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Becoming Jane, and Only You.
6. Favourite Piece of Clothing: Oh god, I'm really lazy right now and don't have any jeans (seriously, I had a pair of J Brands and they ripped right by the crotch after three months, then I got another pair and they ripped by the belt loop and at the knee, again after a few months. I've given up on jeans for now) so I've been living in lululemon pants. AH. I hate myself for that, but I don't have any other clothes to wear. All the skirts and dresses I've got have been worn out and stretched out from being worn and washed so many times. Oops. I need to go shopping.
7. Favourite Flower: PEONIES!
8. Favourite Breakfast: Papayas. Omg. BEST FRUIT EVER. It's so sad that they're so expensive and hard to find. This is why I want to live in Hawaii.
9. Favourite Book: Anything by John Green. LOVE HIM!
10. Least Favourite Food: Anything processed, non-veg, non-organic (nanners included. The organic bad boys taste SO much better) or made with white flour/sugar/corn syrup. Or pasteurized juices. Blech.
I'm tagging everyone on my blogroll AND everyone who comments on this post!
What's your favourite breakfast? Favourite flowers? Movies? Books? I wanna know!
4 comments:
I love Simon´s Cat - it is the cutiest thing ever! :)ReplyDelete
And I like your selection of movies - Pride and Prejudice, Becoming Jane, Breakfast at Tiffany´s..those are just gorgeous! And also Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, Cider House Rules, Forrest Gump and a lot of old movies, because I love their "retro vibe" :)
My fave flowers are probably sunflowers and yellow roses..and forget.me-nots, those are really pretty!
I enjoy books that much that I cannot tell my favourites anymore - I have just read to many :) But I like books by Haruki Murakami, Charles Dickens, Sarah Waters, Jane Austen or J. Coetzee among many others :)
Favourite breakfast is definitely oatmeal, but a sweet melon in the summer is a nice change :)
Ohh, I was already tagged for this and never got around to it--now I have TWICE the pressure (to be responded to with twice the laziness?). Adorable cat! And YES, sounds like you need to get yourself to a mall :DReplyDelete
I love photographing my pets too! They're just so adorable :D You should so not feel bad for only wearing lululemon pants! They are so cute haha. I need to get some of them myself. Oh and I'm moving to Hawaii with you :D Papaya's the best!! Favorite breakfast though is oats or granola.ReplyDelete

Awe! Simon's cat is such a cutie! Haha, his hidden treasure....ReplyDelete
You and I are SO alike! I love to photograph my pets too! Well, my cat usually. He is so photogenic! And so is Pablo! He is such a cutie. :) I love his long hair! Do you have to brush him very often?
Girl, we need to have a movie night together and we can watch PRIDE AND PREJUDICE!!! :D That would be SO amazing! :)

Chamber Concert: Voices & Percussion
Fri 12 Feb 2016 7.00 pm
St Thomas' Church, Pihlajatie 16, Helsinki
PERTTU HAAPANEN: Readymade Alice
SAMI KLEMOLA: Sostenuto
TIM FERCHEN: The Autumn; The Winter
etudes No. 2 and 3 from Etudes for Marimba vol. 1
MATTHEW WHITTALL: ad puram annihilationem meam
Antti Suoranta, percussion
Helsingin kamarikuoro
Nils Schweckendiek, conductor
For the first time, the Helsinki Chamber Choir performs as a whole in one of its regular chamber concerts at St Thomas' Church. Matthew Whittall's powerful and meditative work for choir and percussion contrasts with Perttu Haapanen's playful yet serious look at the various meanings of Lewis Carroll's Alice. Percussionist Antti Suoranta completes the programme with contrasting works for solo cymbal and marimba.
Free admission, programme 10€
In collaboration with: The Parish of Meilahti
St Thomas' Church and Meilahti Church
We have several good orchestras in our country, but only because composers know the Finnish Radio Chamber Choir do they not hesitate to write radical, unusual, rhythmically and tonally demanding thoughts and innovations also in choral music.

At our practice, we offer safe dental solutions to ensure that our clients are satisfied with their smile. Regardless of your procedure, we are here to help your oral and overall health.
Schedule an Appointment Contact us Today
The best way to ensure that you do not have any tooth decay, buildup of plaque or other issues regarding your mouth and teeth is to attend regular check-ups and appointments—usually every six months. Preventative dentistry allows for Dr. Kirian to make a regular assessment to recommend any treatment to help your mouth stay healthy.
We also focus on techniques and tips to develop lifelong oral hygiene habits for increased oral and overall health.
Just as we care about your oral health, we care about your child's oral health. In our office, we treat our pediatric patients with the same thoughtfulness and professionalism as we do for our adult patients.
Oral cancer screenings are done regularly in order to aid in early detection.
When one has a tooth ache, fortunately many times the tooth can be saved. A root canal removes the infected portion and allows one to keep your natural tooth.
Sometimes teeth are beyond repair and should be removed. Fortunately many times the tooth can be replaced immediately with a dental implant or a bridge.
Local anesthetic is used to provide a comfortable dental experience.
If you are a nervous dental patient, nitrous oxide can help you relax before your procedure. An odorless, colorless gas is administered through a nasal mask throughout the procedure. After your procedure is complete, the nitrous gas is turned off, and the effects dissipate quickly.
When operating on a small section, we may only need to numb a section of your mouth—and this is where local anesthetic helps! Local anesthetic is injected to numb the area to be worked on. Local anesthetic is effective within several minutes and may last for a few hours.
In any emergency dental case, we are here to help. If you are experiencing pain, or are experiencing a dental emergency, please contact our office, and we will find the earliest available appointment to help you.
