Just read a post on a leftist site I check every so often (the kind that wants to purge Democrats of, well, pretty much everybody left to help them win an election including, increasingly, Obama) about a lawsuit filed by one of the people who wrote on Arianna Huffington's website for free for years and the claimant wants a share of the money she's made from selling the website. If you don't know any of the details about this, count your blessings.
Anyway, one of the posters on this thread talked about the devaluation of writing, having been a professional journalist since 1974. [Sidebar: Another poster on another thread mentioned being targetted by J Edgar Hoover, and a third poster on a third thread referred to working on the McGovern campaign. How old are the people on that website?] In this internet age, people are able to write for free, so he no longer gets paid a dollar a word. His bitterness was clear although, in this internet age, obviously he could be making everything up and there's no way to prove him a liar. Personally, I find it easier to assume people are telling the truth and let lies reveal themselves, but I digress...
I certainly can't deny the idea that the internet devalues writing, especially in the 'opinions are like assholes, everybody has one' categories. Fortunately, it and other technological advances like it are also instrumental in fewer people knowing
how to read, so it balances out.
Every so often, an internet meme goes around, citing an actual test from a schoolhouse in somewhere, USA from the year 18-something aimed at sixth or seventh graders. As you've probably already guessed, the questions are difficult enough that very few college graduates could get a passing, and even fewer would have enough, well, education, to even have a grounding in those areas. However smart or stupid a student might have been, to pass those math questions would require not only an understanding of the questions, but all the math that leads up to them. Yes, most of the questions are relevant to today's students, or could be made so without making them easier.
Not many kids could make it that far in school - life was a lot harder in the year 18-something - but those that could would definitely have a grounding in the world that could take them far. You know, the thing education is there for in the first place. It provides opportunities to the bright kids (as well as the idiot sons and spinsters for the wealthier families) which can pay off in the long run. If Ma and Pa and the other kids can work a little harder and keep the farm going without Junior breaking his back 12 hours a day right next to them, the education would be an asset.
Yes, writing is devalued by the fact that so many people can do it, especially in public. It still seems better than the alternative. And with the onset of Generation... what are we up to now, "Z"? What comes after Z? Anyway, these kids with their video games and internet and rocky roller music and hula hoops aren't even going to a school where the basics of a classical education are considered remotely important. "There isn't enough diversity and anyway, math is hard."
Writing is hard too. Even if you don't have anything to say (does anyone?) to keep doing it, and do it well, is something you have to want to do. A dollar a word is a nice incentive/bonus (I would imagine) but it's not the reason for doing it. Even if it's garbage, the person's ability and willingness to write something more complicated than a tweet is itself a decent justification.
[A couple of days after writing the above] I've spend most of a weekend doing little. Went into the office a couple times for some work, a bit of editing on the works-in-progress, major or minor. Today I've killed a bunch of time on at theagonybooth.whatever, a site devoted to extensive recaps of bad movies/tv shows/cartoons/comics. Recaps, not reviews. They go into excruciatingly detailed recaps of the movies. Not scene by scene or line by line, but the writers take us through the movie/whatever chronologically, usually with hilariously-captioned screenshots. They comment with a film buff's eye and as someone who is not a film buff, they usually do so with an enjoyable style.
It's not scholarship they're after so much as a group of creative individuals sharing a common sense of... fun [it's late, I don't have a better word for it]. Many of the movies are stuff you've never heard of, with some interestingly off-the-wall choices [the 1910 version of "The Wizard of Oz" being a favorite] and have recently expanded to pursue a few other lines. There are some 50's comic books, some 80's cartoons and tv shows - as someone who has real affection for "Family Ties", I loved the eviscerations nonetheless and wish to God they'd do more episodes - a number of superhero movies (most of which I haven't seen, or saw only once). There are a number of movies known by reputation - Dune, Battlefield: Earth, Gigli (odd grouping, that) - and a large amount of Trek, which is where the site's title comes from. For a Trekkie, especially one who likes being poked fun at, every part of the franchise has quite a few recaps and they're worth it. The writers obviously work hard on it, and the work reflects their biases. They aren't writing about bad movies just to be writing about bad movies, they have a distinct point-of-view with standards to uphold. They certainly don't take requests.
The Trekkie thing is actually what led me to write this, because I just realized that - having spent a chunk of the day doing so - I'd rather read articles about "Star Trek" than watch any part of it except the handful of movies I've seen and liked. And even there I have no interest in anything other than the original series and the movies based off of it. Once in a while, I happen to think about some aspect of "Trek" trivia, which Wikipedia quickly satisfies. Otherwise the subculture is interesting to me in a way the source material isn't.
Parodies of "Trek" are funny though. The "Frasier" cast doing a Frasier skit, only with Trek humor, CPT Janeway reading all the Frasier lines and you-know-who dressed up as a Klingon? That's funny. A convention beseiged by Zombies in "Night of the Living Trekkies"? Comedy gold. I can watch those over and over. Otherwise, I may see II, III, IV and VI again sometime before I die, but I'm not worried about it.
There's certainly overlap between Trek and areas I am interested in (comic books, Star Wars), so it's not like I'm unfamiliar with the material, just that I don't get the interest others have for it. Years ago, this actually bothered me to the extent that I went out and rented a VHS copy of what's considered to be the best episode ever, "The City on the Edge of Forever". And the whole time, I'm watching what's supposed to be a sci-fi masterpiece and wondering 'how is Spock able to build those futuristic machines in the 1930's?' For that matter, what were Kirk and Spock doing there in the first place, since they would have blinked out when McCoy jumped through and changed time just like the Enterprise did. Remember, they tried to hail the ship and failed, leaving them no choice but to follow the Dr. into the past.
So - perhaps much like comic books and Star Wars for other people - I just don't get the appeal. Discussing Nurse Chapel vs. Yeoman Rand, the Borg, Tribbles, no idea what people see in it. [Picard versus Kirk, I get]
Here's the trailer for a small movie that looks like a generic slacker rom-com (as I say, I'm not a film buff) but uses the Artist Formerly Known As Shatner creatively.

Cozy at home – Saturday April, 17th
The familiar thud – rolled paper against wood – woke me up. I blinked two times and wiped away the sleep. Quickly I slipped out of my warm bed and went in the hot coffee – smelling kitchen to pour myself the black elixir in my big weekend cup. I decided for three warm samples of the delicious pastry collection I had bought on my way home from Greenpoint yesterday night. I loved my fully automated kitchen. With the first bite of the croissant in my mouth – Fortunato Brothers are the best – I opened the front door to reach for the Saturday edition of the Ledger. Brrr, it had become chilly overnight.
I choked on the buttery piece. There was an airmail letter in my post box.
Back under my cover, I placed the coffee beside the pastries and the newspaper on my night stand. Carefully I opened the blue envelope.
Alex, April, 08th
Today I start my last mission back to Africa and then I'll head for normal temperatures. I don't know yet how I will get home. I haven't made any plans, but I've met many interesting and independent people who'll help me to leave the region.
I hope that you'll wait for my return. Deep in my heart I hope we'll meet midway. I want to see you as soon as possible.
I miss you so much,
The nervous prickling I'd felt at the front door changed into cold showers during reading and now my whole body trembled. He still missed me. I sank deeper in the pillows and giggled like a school girl. April, 08th…exactly one month after he wrote the love letter. That was a good sign. God, I'd felt so different the last month. The first stormy billows of 'in love' hadn't passed away. They had grown to painful but joyful waves.
"I also want to meet you as soon as possible," I whispered. Nibbling at the blueberry muffin I inspected the envelope a little closer. 'Back to Africa' عدن Aden stood on the post stamp. After finding out Bobby's whereabouts I tried to learn more about the countries around the Gulf of Aden. I discovered that Aden was a seaport of Yemen and the historic center was built in a volcanic crater.
111-19, 67th Road, Forest Hills, NY. Bobby used my home address. My eyes snapped open. Why hadn't I noticed this right away? Was he safe? Would he really come home? I sniffed at the letter but there was no scent. I could only smell my coffee. Leaning the letter against my bedside lamp, I reached for the newspaper. I made myself comfortable, the Ledger on my knees, the scone in my left hand and the coffee in my right. What a wonderful Saturday. I couldn't wait for perfect Saturdays with Bobby by my side, sharing hot chocolate, the newspaper and feeding each other sweet pastries. I was happy, really, really happy.
Soon, very, very soon.

Well, yesterday was the big day....Everyone Draw Muhammad Day. And, as I do, I scoured the internet to see what was going on and what people were saying. You know, I was rather surprised. There actually WAS some good debate. And frankly SOME of the pictures were actually very well done and...*gasp*, even somewhat respectful. The majority, however, were just insanely stupid, horribly racist, and disgustingly bigoted. So were many comments left around the internet. Here is just a sampling, copied and pasted directly as they appeared on their original sites:
"***** Mohammed! This is a free country!!!!! and, I will say what I want. Censor South Park? Are you kidding me???????? This is going way to far!!!!"
Notice the stars? Ya...whatever word was there, and I presume it was fuck, was censored (not by me).
"Hahaha, I love it. Say, egc52556, were you not aware that almost EVERYTHING "sticks a finger in the eye of Muslims"? It's not like a cartoons of Mohammed can be stopped. I mean why not? the whole demeanor of the guy, the history of his antics, literally begs to be made a cartoon of, marrying a 9 year old, calling for the murder of Jews behind every rock, "No pictures of me", as if he was hiding from the "paparazzi" of the day, and then there's his promise of the "12 virgins", are you kidding me? this is a religion?. Let's hope Muslims finally get over themselves, if not, well maybe the rest of the civilized world will finally get it that Islam is a whackjob religion, as bad if not worse than Catholicism."
"Can you be a good Muslim and a good American? I doubt it."
"I'm sick of the Muslims getting preferential treatment....ooooo comedians can't mock you, but everyone else is open game."
I will now refer you to my previous posting on this blog.
"Welcome to America, stand up and take it, or LEAVE, it is that simple...take your extremest friends and go back to whatever country you came from....that is the essence of what we call "freedom of speech"."
"If anything happens to the creators of South Park, the world should go after all muslims...I'm sorry if you can't keep your extremest representatives in line, than all should pay the price..."
"Mohammed was a murderer, child molester, rapist, thief and liar, among his more notable achievements. He should be cartooned as a pig, a snake, some pestiferous vermin. He is, at present, undoubtedly much more concerned with the agonies he is suffering in Hell than with verbal or written insults. Islam is a religion of ignorance. Who in his right mind would follow a mohammedlike varmint anywhere, except to shoot it and claim the bounty?"
"The hysterical vapid extremists will scream no matter what. Let the cartoons begin."
"I think I'll draw Mohammed tomrrow... maybe I'll use some bacon as the medium."
"I think they are foolish for even suggesting they would kill anyone who drew their "god". Why? I know two things for fact. First, there are only 55,000 cops in Canada. Second, their are 33,000,000 Canadians, of which 3,700,000 are like me, a hunter; with lots of guns with scopes. You decide for yourself if killing one infidel is worth the fall out. Just a little food for thought."
"Good on you Molly Norris. Reveal through art the Muslim goat shagging wankers following the delusional ravings of yet another pediophile from a dark age. My check is in the mail."
"pbuh stands for poopy be upon him"
"I figure if the savages ever do take over, I'll just keep my head down and continue on pretty much as I do now. It's the gays, ecofreaks, multiculti demanders and vociferous atheists who are going to discover how the brave new world really works."
Oh GOOD, not only going after Muslims, but also adding in some gay bashing, and general hate against liberals.
"Generations of culturally proscribed first-cousin marriages have not served them well. It's like 'Deliverance', but with nuclear weapons instead of banjos. This will not end well."
"I'd draw something to show my support, but I'm not really sure I could draw a pedophile sodomite without violating some site more."
"Draw his head on a pig's body. That will get the IslamoFascists riled up."
"Filthy ragheads should be burned for the way they think"
Isn't that sort of a veiled threat?? Isn't this what the whole day was AGAINST??
"those people can kiss my ****. go bleed all over something else liberal scum. muahahaha"
Wow, and it comes back to us darn liberals once again.
"Screw Islam. Oh, and here is a txt pic of Muhammad:
It's a pig faced Muhammad...get it?!?! Turn your head to the left...
Mulsims: Take that!!!
Rest of the world: You are welcome!!!"
"i submit that it is worth drawing muhammad ******* a pig while eating bacon and drinking vodka while watching middle eastern burka ****, LOOK OUT they're showing their wrists! what ***** "
"The beast that Islam has become will be defanged and declawed!"
yo champs...islam *****.....get real go fish...also have a BBG sandwich ******* delicious.
"mooslame lol"
"They are the scum of the earth. But I'm not the least bit surprised that Christians are running to their defense, after all, they share the same vulnerabilities and expect us to respect their bronze-age myths."
"Islam means submission. Islam and Western Civilization are incompatible.
The time is fast approaching to decide if we will submit or fight."
"I have no respect for mooselimbs."
"Next time you read someone writing that pbuh crap, try substituting the onomatopoeia for spit in your mind. It makes it more palatable."
"In the words of the cave dwellers: "Let it be so.""
"After saying "Mohammed", I sometimes add "PBUH". The "P" stands for a word that sounds similar to "peace", but has a completely different meaning."
"Bees Piss Upon Him."
"Those with talent please draw the cartoons-mine is but a stick figure (with a goat)- and enjoy. But draw a bead on the American Leftist, traitor and Dhimmitude and show courage to our weaker brothers that they can rise to the challenge. When Mohamed and his demon worshiping hords swarmed out of the desert they swept MOST everyone out their way but only MOST. On every front the moon god ran into strong opposition from great leaders who stopped them-sometimes permanantly sometimes only for awhile. But they were often stopped.Now we need to roll them back, first sweeping the American Traitors, Dhimmitude and such out of the way. Draw a bead.
What is this even about??? I also love the persons posting signature:
"Let your sidearm be like Master Card:
Don't Leave home without it."
"Come on, if the KKK is protected under the first amendment then stupid-ass Mohammed is *definitely* fair game."
"I wrote to the Muslim Terrorist living in our white house and told him that his silly little allah is nothing more than a figment of someone's imagination. I told him that when he will stand before the only true God, (it is written that every human being will be required to do this), his silly little allah won't be there to help him. The blood dripping from his hands for all of the innocent murdered babies will be one topic God will take up with him. What a lonely, anguished spot he will be in."
Well, there you have it! Another successful day of promoting widespread Muslim bashing (and, of course, liberal bashing). So, was the day a success? Well, like I said, there was some good debate. A suprising number of comments I read on blogs and news stories were from people who didn't support the drawing of Muhammad as a protest, a sentiment I agree with. And, there was a good number of people who made very civil, very well worded posts of support for the protest.
Apparently, this is going to be an annual event. Great. We get to revisit all of this in a year! Oh GAWD!

Dual Double Barrel is a pair of sawed off double barrel shotguns featured in CrossFire.
The Dual Double Barrel deals high damage in close to medium ranges. But it has the slowest rate of fire than any other pistols and is also inaccurate at long range (due to it actually being a Shotgun). This gun has slow reloading time and low ammo count of only 4 shells with 20 in reserve, so it's not recommended to play with this gun in Pistol Only matches.
Despite occupying the secondary slot, it is still considered a shotgun and requires the shotgun mag item to increase spare ammo, and for this reason it does not receive ammo boost when equipping the D.E-Born Beast/Barrett Iron Shark/D.E El Dorado.

- CF Vietnam
- CF Philippines
- CF North America
- CF Korea
CF Japan
- CF Indonesia
- CF Brazil
- CF Europe
- If another player watches someone using this gun in first person view, the reload animation won't show, making players think that other players using this gun use fast-reload hack. This glitch has been fixed in recent patches.
- In CF West, the Dual Double Barrel was changed from a pistol to a shotgun on the May 21st 2014 patch. It is now much easier to obtain the Big Game Hunter ribbon.
- This is the only break-action shotgun in CF that uses side-by-side design (aside from the Dual Desperado which is quad-barrels). All other break-action shotguns uses over-and-under design.

Meet Alex and Mike Faherty, the brothers behind the newly launched Faherty Brand, and explore their beach oasis-slash-showroom.
Mike is the designer with a Ralph Lauren pedigree and passion for textiles, Alex is the Yale grad with a background in investment banking and private equity. The vision for Faherty Brand, though is a shared one, "The coolest thing about this company is literally that Alex and I have been talking about this since we were little kids," Mike explains.
Albert Einstein may have been talking about these two when he said, "Play is the highest form of research." A childhood in an idyllic beach town set the veritable stage for their vision. "We grew up in Spring Lake, New Jersey. About an hour and a half south of the city, two blocks from the ocean. Our lives were all around cookouts, bonfires and surfing. We were the youngest kids in a huge family, and growing up was really about these laidback, great casual moments."
"We wanted our life embodied in a brand," Alex explains, "We were like, 'let's just stay true to that and build a company around who we are and what we are interested in.'"
The initial launch is a line of one-piece, two-piece, high-waisted and vintage inspired swimwear with an emphasis on print, utility and sustainability — in equal standing. "They're made for women and their active lives at the beach," Alex explains. The brothers did market research with close friends and family and found that women were looking for bathing suits that stay in place, with adjustable straps and bra-referential tops.
As for the punched up hues and artisanal prints, Mike's years on the ground for Ralph Lauren were just the starting point, "I travel a lot, for work and for play, and I'm always going to remote lands to find indigenous textiles and grab inspiration from them," he explains. "You'll see all of it in the pieces, a mix of my travels through different regions of the world — Indonesia, Java, India."
As for eco-awareness, the fabric is created out of recycled bottles, "Through my background working with mills I was able to develop something that was luxurious, but inherently made from recycled materials." Faherty Brand will begin rolling out ready-to-wear including dresses, tees and shorts in the coming months, as well.

The FAILURE Of Establishment Christianity Against Satanism/Judaism
(Apollonian, 24 Jul 15)
Thus establishment Christianity has so utterly, grossly, abjectly FAILED against satanism, actually just helping satanism along in its murderous advance, laying the groundwork w. subjectism and esp. Pharisaism, esp. in way of Pelagianism, pretending to perfect freedom of will of human, thus fallacious/delusionary/hereticalist "good-evil."
For Christianity MUST MILITARIZE against the satanic/Judaic enemy--but establishment Christianity doesn't and won't, rather doing the opposite, helping Judaism/satanism, justifying lies and Pelagian heresy of "good-evil."
Thus Christianity to militarize, it MUST RATIONALIZE--which establishment Christianity doesn't and won't, failing even to pt. out the satanic enemy, not to mention the Jew. Establishment Christianity even pretends it's mere version/variation of Jew, refusing to face real Christianity is ANTI-THESIS of Jew, hence standing for truth (Gosp. JOHN 14:6), hence the necessarily under-lying OBJECTIVE (God-created) reality--against Jew subjectivism always justified in Pharisaism and Pelagianism.
For Jew "faith" means subjectivism, foundation of their LIES (Gosp. JOHN 8:44) and creating reality--against proper Christian LOYALTY to truth and honesty, reality not made subjectivistically; rather being provided, God-created.
Thus proper Christian militarization MUST ATTACK, BEGINNING w. the false "Christian" establishment and liars who pretend Christianity stands for anything but, first and foremost, precious, holy TRUTH (= Christ), NOT "love," or "peace," or "faith," or "good," or "happiness," or anything else.
For happiness of the proper sort is only properly achieved by Christian TRUTH TRUTH TRUTH (= Christ) and nothing else--not love, or peace, or faith, or (non-existent) "good," or anything else, and the Holy Spirit then, being what achieves TRUTH, is rational, integral HONESTY.

Fashion is a subject a lot of people think they lack knowledge of. When it comes down to fashion, you'll find that it's not hard to be fashionable.This article will help you build up that fashion sense.
Try to spend the vast majority of your budget on the essentials. This means investing in classic, timeless pieces. For example, a pair of basic black pants or a black skirt in a classic cut will be a great foundation for pairing with trendier tops and shoes.
Long hair can get in your way on a burden during a busy day. If you do not have time for a more elaborate style, pull it up.
You can very easily dress up darker colored jeans by putting on a dress shirt and classy high heels. Wear colored jeans if you want a more casual look.
Lighter washes and bright colors are much more suited for a casual looks.
Make a style that is fresh and unique. Truly original fashion comes from people who make their own style, not those who follow the trends. Having a comfortable personality is key, and when you create your style, you'll be praised on it's originality.
Create a unique style of your own. It may take a bold leap in personality to reach your own new heights in fashion trends, you will love the response you get as people admire your personal style.
There is no such thing as being perfectly fashionable. First of all, no one in this world is perfect. Second, any attempt for perfection sends the signal that you are trying way too hard. Amazing and memorable styles have come from models and celebrities who purposely leave something that isn't finished, such as wearing a messy ponytail or a bedhead look.
Don't have oodles of makeup inside your cosmetic bag. Just keep a few types of makeup products you use the season. Think about what you will require for work and what you will need when you go out on the town. Makeup will not last forever once you begin using it.Germs can grow in the cosmetics if it is just sitting there.
The old adage about avoiding white once Labor Day has passed no longer applies. Any color is fine, as long as it fits you. If you look fabulous in white, wear it any time of the year. There is no one with a real sense of style that will make a comment.
If you tend to have frizzy hair, do not rub your hair with a towel when you finish washing it. This can damage your hair much worse and lead to a "frizzier" appearance. You should hold it inside a towel and push down to get moisture off. When your hair is no longer sopping wet, brush and comb your hair.
There are a few essentials that every woman should have in their closets. It is important to have jeans hemmed for sneakers and some for heels, then a couple pairs of darker, dressier slacks. Also, you should always keep a black dress for formal events.
Do not strive for perfection in terms of fashion. Also, if you attempt perfection, you may look uptight. Some fantastic looks can be found on the greatest fashion ideas come from people that have flaws with their look.
Mousse is an excellent tool in adding volume to thin hair if used properly. There are plenty of people who like wearing big hair like celebrities did during the 80s, but it takes a certain look to pull that off, and most people don't have it.
Fashion Sense
Dress for your body type. You might not want to wear something like a blouse that's low-cut, but you may be more confident with your legs. In this case, you can slip on some elegant heels and keep you skirt length short to show off your great legs. Show off your best assets.
By utilizing the tips you've learned to the best of your ability, then you should be able to obtain good fashion sense. When you make the most of the ideas within this article, people will notice your new fashion sense, even if they do not entirely agree with it.
Get rid of tired clothing by donating them to a needy organization. There are a couple of great benefits from doing this. First and foremost, you are helping those who are less fortunate than you. Scoring some karma points is always a good thing. And with less clutter around the home, you can actually find good outfits quicker since you no longer have to rummage through every old item.

A High Surf Advisory is in effect today for the South Coast of Massachusetts in the areas of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket.
If anyone is planning on being at the beach or in the water, big waves and dangerous rip currents are likely in spots along the coast. According to the National Weather Service, those currents can pull swimmers out to sea.
If you find yourself in a rip current, instead of fighting it and trying to swim directly back to shore, it's best to swim parallel to the coast to escape it and then swim in.
With Jose heading up the coast and likely to be a tropical storm when it passes by, beach erosion will be another issue due to the large waves.
This is a point that has people thinking ahead like Scituate resident, Eric Mccroskey.
"We're really interested in storm surge and the rain levels we might get," he said.
The waves will keep building into the mid-week as the storm makes its closest pass on Wednesday.

Dear Families,
December is here! How did that happen?
The Trailblazers and Explorers have finished Phase 1 of our Family Study. We hope you had a chance to read your children's Family Stories. Phase 2 is the study of an important member of our classroom family – Myrtle the Turtle. This week we have read stories about all sorts of turtles, and we now know that Myrtle is an Eastern Painted turtle. We learned how to tell the difference between mammals (fur or hair), birds (feathers), and reptiles (scales). We spent some time doing careful observations of Myrtle, and then we did some observational drawings. We decided to create a "play-space" for Myrtle. We read about a turtle's outdoor habitat, and we went into the garden and collected rocks, sticks, sand and dirt. Then we carefully constructed a new habitat in a galvanized tub and let Myrtle get in and try it out. She loved it!! Here are some questions to ask your child about the week:
- What do Eastern Painted turtles look like?
- What is a baby turtle called?
- What is an egg tooth?
- hat do baby turtles do as soon as they hatch?
We carefully observed what Myrtle's favorite foods are and they are NOT CARROTS! On Friday we peeled many carrots, but we had to eat them ourselves!
Our "Homes" project is nearing completion in the Wonderers and Adventurers room. This week the children worked with wooden clothespins, markers, fabric, and yarn to create people to occupy their homes. Soon we'll add some furniture to our very special project. Meanwhile, family stories continue to inspire and entertain! Abby's mom, Leah, visited and shared the story of how Abby broke her leg in three places when she was just two years old. We all had an opportunity to look at the cast up close when we signed it on Wednesday morning! Maya's parents, Erica and Kevin, and younger brother Elijah visited on Tuesday afternoon and shared the story of a visit to Minnesota when Maya was two years old. Erica was performing there, and the family lived in a hotel room for two months! Erica shared her beautiful operatic voice with us – ask your child to tell you which fruit she sang about! In other singing news, we were delighted when Layla's big sister, Mariama, visited our classroom on Wednesday. She sang to us at quiet time, accompanied on guitar by our resident musician Brian Jordan. In other "family news," our Doll Story characters reappeared at Wednesday's morning meeting. While three of the characters were playing a game of family, one child was initially left out of the game. Ask your child to tell you about what happened, and about who the "upstander" was.
Our friend Jezabel, owner of Gavin's Cafe, also visited the Adventurers and Wonderers this week. She told us about her family in Argentina and shared a special song about our "manitos" (little hands) that she sang when she was a little girl! On "playground days" we often stop by Gavin's Cafe to say "Buenos Dias" to Jezabel, and we were delighted to introduce this community member to our classroom. In anticipation of our Friday baking project, the children took turns voting on Thursday morning to see whether we'd bake banana bread or pumpkin bread. Each child chose either an orange or yellow unifix cube to represent his or her vote. Ask your child to tell you about the final count – the vote was very, very close!
The Preschool/Kindergarten Winter Concert and Sing will be on Friday, December, 11th in the Garage from 9:00 to 9:30. All parents and family members are welcome to attend. The children are excited to share the songs they have been practicing this semester. There will be room in front of the audience chairs for family members who would like to sit on the floor closer to the students. There will be a sing-along at the end of the concert and we look forward to making music together with you!
Enjoy a Wonderful Weekend,
The Preschool Team

as someone who own a gold kakama,it depends on the lighting, shine a light behind the mask and it glows gold, shine sunlight on the face, it's fairly dull.yes, the 01 gold masks are kind of translucent.
They're talking about gold Kaukau's, of which I have 6, don't know why, just have 'em

Choosing an Online Home Loan Calculator
As the adage goes, something that cannot be measured cannot be improved. This fact is inclusive of most things in life including home loans. If you're looking to live a debt free life, first make sure you calculate how much you can afford to spend. A home loan calculator is a great tool that'll help you get an idea of the monthly and yearly payment breakdowns. The calculator allows you to assess your mortgage payment options.
While some provide a simple calculation of the monthly spending that you can afford, after you key in the interest rate and the other expenses, there are some others that are elaborate and help you calculate several things. For example, if you'd like to know the maximum housing loan amount based on the annual income and the ability to service the loan, choose from a home loan calculator that determines the affordability of your loan. All that you've got to enter is the monthly salary, the start interest rate, the loan term period and the maximum percentage of income that you can afford to spend, and you have a calculator that tells you the maximum loan amount that you can ask, and the maximum monthly mortgage payment that you can make.
You can also find out how susceptible you are to changes in interest rates in the market. Enter the principal amount, interest rate variation and the loan period, and you can know how changes in the interest rate can affect your monthly expenditures. And if you're an investor, you can look at a home loan calculator that gives you the potential yield from your investment.
Depending on the amount that you can afford, or the interest rate or the term period that's best for you, you can choose from a loan provider. And if you've already availed a loan, the home loan calculator can help you determine the monthly income that's need to stay afloat and avoid a foreclosure. There are several variants of the calculator, make sure that you are in tune with the method of calculation with the loan provider.
Rather than having to make complex calculations, where you often lose track of what you were calculating in the first place, or ask for help from your finance consultant, it's best to use a home loan calculator that can do all the calculation for you. You end up saving time, and energy using these calculators that can easily perform the most complex of calculations. But choose from a good website, rather than visiting the first site that's thrown up on the search result.

Nice to have a ride after a long time!
Though a short one, had a nice time raving up on the Tumkur road and climbing the small hill at Devarayanadurga.
I expected it to rain and have a cloudy day, but it turned out to be just opposite.
I don't like sunny days though...
Thanks to Meppa and vijay for the company.
Meppa had a good time with his new possession 550D and Vijay sure will remember his first "Ride*" experience for a long time.
*Ride means riding to somewhere else other than office/glossary shop/wine shop

The former Beverly Hills home of Elvis and Priscilla Presley is back on the market for a cool $US30 million, several years after it was saved from demolition.
In 2012 the French Regency-meets-modern home was listed for the first time in more than 20 years, then bought by Hard Rock Cafe founder Peter Morton for $US9.8 million.
Rumours suggested that Morton planned to tear down the house to build another bigger home on the valuable parcel of land which sits within the Trousdale Estates.
Strong opposition from locals residents prevented the redevelopment from going ahead. Morton instead renovated the property and sold it in 2014 for $US14.5 million to an unknown buyer.
Built in 1958, the newlywed Presleys moved into the house in 1967 and lived there until 1973.
The property has, over the years, become a pilgrimage site for Elvis fans.
The 500sqm, three-bedroom, five-bathroom home sits at the end of a long driveway in the exclusive Beverly Hills enclave of the Trousdale Estates.
The updates from Morton's renovation work include the freshly painted walls, new flooring and a modern kitchen.
Yet the home's structural bones remain, with typical midcentury features including the high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glass windows.
There is ample outdoor space surrounding the home, including lush lawns and a large patio with a fireplace, pool and spa.
Panoramic city to sea views can be seen from the patio and multiple vantage points throughout the home.
Other updates include an added laundry room and updated electrical wiring.
The property is listed with Mauricio Umansky of The Agency for $US30 million.

If someone told you this happened probably you would not have believed it. Check out this crazy hyena which seems to have been feeding on the guts of a dead elephant {INSIDE IT}.
The lion seemed to have stumbled on the free food but didn't notice the hyena.
The hyena waited for an opportune moment and dashed out for safety.
Man, that freaky..
As usual, you wont miss funny comments that people will make in such kind of situations. Here are some
"One lion to another: Did you hear this elephant laugh? No? Ok, probably just my imagination. Let's eat."
"So that's why the hyenas in Lion King lived in an elephant graveyard."
I imagine it ran away laughing hysterically.
Bizarre don't you think? Do share

You are in Paris for a few days or a week, right? So why on earth would you want to pour through 300+ listings? Paris Is My Kitchen was created for you food-obsessed travellers who are not interested in every place to eat, only the places to eat in Paris, right now.
Sadly and surprisingly to many visitors, great food isn't everywhere. Near your hotel isn't a criteria, you have to be willing to GO where the food is.
For each restaurant, I do my best to explain what it is, and what it isn't, so that you know what you are signing up for before you reserve.
These are my personal recs for fresh food and wine, and they must, be fun.
FYI: Restaurant solicitations are not responded to nor ever accepted.

18th Century Mansion Brocket Hall Goes Into Administration
April 02 2015
The owners of the 18th century mansion, Brocket Hall, have gone into administration as debts have overwhelmed the company.
Winding up Petition Issued by HMRC
Brocket Hall International Ltd, which runs a hotel, conference centre, two golf courses, and the Auberge Du Lac restaurant, reportedly went into administration yesterday.
The Joint Administrators, Alix Partners, said the business will carry on trading and they will continue to work alongside an experienced industry operator, whilst they explore all of their options with a focus on the sale of the business. The Administrators are ensuring they honour all bookings and deposits, and that the golf club memberships are unaffected.
Joint Administrator Peter Holder had this to say:
"Brocket Hall and its magnificent grounds represents a fantastic opportunity in the luxury hospitality and leisure sector. We are confident there will be a significant number of interested parties in acquiring this truly unique and historic estate."
It was reported that a poor period of trading lead to the business experiencing financial difficulties, which resulted in Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs issuing a winding-up petition.

- The passion. Nothing would have happened, and there'd be no Sugarwise if I had been sensible.

Manchester food tech startup Lo-Dough has become the first ever company to be awarded an official "reduced carb" certification by Sugarwise for its innovative low calorie pizza base. As well as 30% lower in carbs than comparable products, products carrying the coveted Sugarwise mark with a carb claim must fulfill the certifier's additional criteria of having no more than 10g carbohydrate in 100g.
Sugarwise is partnering again with 'The Eat Smart Show'. A unique event frequented by your target market. Over 40,000 health conscious consumers will be in attendance looking to purchase healthy, low-sugar products. We will be there and we would love you to join us!
A survey by Netmums, leading parenting website and Sugarwise, international authority for sugar claims, launches in Parliament today. Shockingly, while 80% of parents regularly look for low or no sugar products for their family, the manufacturers of lower sugar products are repeatedly told by retailers sugar is "not a priority". A new Alliance to target obesity is launched and members announced.
Sugarwise launches a new Alliance of stakeholders committed to tackling obesity at the EU Parliament. The Alliance will be dedicated to improving prepared food in the interest of public health. New data revealed by Euromonitor International shows average daily consumption of sugar in Europe is 30 teaspoons a day. Lidl, Danone, Sun-Maid, Cargill, and Mondelez are among those participating.
A recipe book designed to help people follow World Health Organization guidelines on sugar launches into major retailers across the UK on 28th July. This is the first time recipes have been independently certified by sugar claim authority Sugarwise. To make the grade recipes must be low in "free" sugars including honey and juice. The book includes advice from Cambridge scientists on sweeteners.
On Wednesday 28th June the launch of the new sugar label Sugarwise in Europe will be announced with the support of MEPs, WHO and EC Representatives. Sugarwise is the first tool that offers consumers a means of identifying foods low in added sugars, the new sugar label becomes available throughout Europe empowering the consumer to take control of their added sugar intake for the first time.
The Sugar Summit being held in Parliament today brings together influential stakeholders who together have the power to implement solutions to the sugar challenge. Convened by the mother who founded the Sugarwise marque and chaired by Keith Vaz MP, participants include Compass Group, Tesco and Caffe Nero as well as British Soft Drinks Association, and Unite, the largest trade union in the country.
A new test enabling scientists to identify added sugars in foods for the first time launches in Palo Alto. The Sugarwise certification program uses this test to award a kitemark to those products low in added sugar helping people quickly identify them. It has been hailed as one of the most important breakthroughs in our fight against the negative health effects associated with high sugar intake.
Sugarwise's unique technology - that independently assesses levels of free sugars - alongside its kitemark and proposed incentives could provide hope in tackling childhood obesity. A new partnership between the UK's major retailers, Guy's & St Thomas', FoodMaestro and Sugarwise has led to development of a ground breaking app enabling people to control their free sugars intake for the first time.
Sugarwise, the international kitemark for low sugar food and drink from Cambridge UK are to move their headquarters to the United States post Brexit. The recent FDA guidelines directing food and drinks companies to specify added sugars has generated significant opportunities in the US . Brexit, and the added interest by US brands to use the kitemark are the primary reasons for moving headquarters.

Sugarwise is the world's first certification for sugar claims in food and drink food and drink. The Sugarwise test is the only independent method for assessing added sugars in food and drink. Manufacturer supplied composition and recipe information does not need to be supplied to perform the independent assessment, that has the potential to enforce new sugar labelling regulations as well as reformulation targets on added sugar throughout the world, ensuring that all manufacturers comply and catching out those who do not. The kitemark positively highlights options low in added sugars. Sugarwise was the first company to relocate its headquarters out of the UK post Brexit, choosing the United States.

The Winner Is.......
What's your favorite period of history and why?
That, actually, is rather an easy one. The Revolutionary war era, and the late 1800's to early 1900's.
I like the Revolutionary era due to the nature of the political upheaval, and the way it was dealt with in the founding of our nation. Flooring. That, sadly, was also where our nation started down the wrong path. I intend to do a post on that someday....
The late 1800's and early 1900's were the old west and westward expansion days. From cowboys and Indians to cowboys and bank-robbers, to cowboys and.......Yeah, I like cowboys. That was the era of real cowboys. Most weren't saved, but the ones that were were, I believe, the toughest and best men this world has seen in a long time. I also like the clothes, tack, and weapons from that era. A Colt peacemaker with a five and a half inch barrel is still one of the best weapons ever to exist. Hats, boots, horses, snakes, guns, crooks, and all that sheebang - I love them all.
Well, that was nice and easy. Let's get down to a more gritty subject.
Sadie asked what my position on Replacement Theology was. This is a rather interesting topic. From what I understand, Replacement Theology states that Israel is no longer God's people, but the church as a whole is.
From what I understand of scripture, I don't agree with that. Granted, I don't believe every Jewish person that is alive today will be saved, but the Jewish people as a whole have not been chucked by the wayside. I think Paul made that very clear. Part of the whole reason stated that the Gentiles were let in was to make the Jews jealous and drive them back to God.
Granted, not all "Jews" today are really full-blooded Israelites, and I would say that those who weren't would - I guess - be classified under gentile.
That is my opinion as of right now. I did a minimal amount of study at one point, and came to this conclusion after some talks with some friends over this topic. Interesting subject though.
Aaaaannnnnnnnnd, one more for good measure.
Corey P. asked what was my all time favorite fiction book, and why.
Hmm. I haven't read a whole heap of really good fiction books. Most "good" books I have read have been books on particular interesting topics. The vast majority of fiction that I have read, falls under one author - G.A. Henty. I have read all of his historical fiction pieces, and a few of his straight fiction ones. Of his straight fiction, I would have to say that "A Final Reckoning" was the best. It is a tale of a British chap, who, after getting blamed for something he didn't do, heads to Australia for a rough, tough life as a sheriff in the bush, keeping down renegades ranging the open bush of Down Unda. The book ends in a showdown between himself and the British renegade who got him there.
So! That's all for now! Thanks for swingin by and readin!

David, just to let you know the reason why I asked is because we have some friends who sadly do believe in Replacement theology, and I was hoping that you all didn't. I am glad you feel the same way as we do. Keep standing firm!ReplyDeleteReplies
Aha. Gotcha. Well, at least I don't think I believe that way, although it is a little bit of a sticky topic. Lots of interesting ins and outs to it.Delete
Thanks for moseying this direction!
Ha! Spelled my name wrong ;) Don't sweat, I'm used to it (Daddy almost always asks me to spell it for him when writing my name!) (It's 'e-a-l' not 'a-e-l'.)ReplyDelete
Both Wars for Independence are my favorite periods of history...and WW2 :) I like cowboys too...in fact I'm scratching around with an idea for a TV-style Western. I wear my hat and boots about everytime I go outside :)
Replacement Theology...The Church universal (i.e. the elect) is, according to my understanding, Israel. Romans 9:6-8 "But it is not that the word of God has taken no effect. For they are not all Israel who are of Israel, nor are they all children because they are the seed of Abraham; but, 'In Isaac your seed shall be called.' That is, those who are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God; but the children of the promise are counted as the seed." I of course, don't doubt that many blood Israelites will be saved, but I'm not sure I quite understand your position. From what I said, do we agree or disagree? Just curious...Replies
Ooops, sorry. I went looking for how to spell you name when I typed it up, and must have got it wrong. *Sorry* :DDelete
Well, it's sorta a hard point. I don't think God has turned his back on Israel and made them just like one of us. Then again, we are his people now as well (gentiles I mean). So, It's almost a both-and. I think it would be safest to say, in one official statement, that God will save the elect Israelites, and the elect gentiles. That is the safest answer I can come up with.
So, I hope that is what you meant! Thanks for commenting!
It's okay :DDelete
Yes...and no. Certainly God saves the elect among the blood-decendents of Abraham as well as of the gentiles (wouldn't it be interesting to know whether or not we had Abraham's blood in us?) I would say that God was through with national Israel as His special people at the conclusion of the Old Covenant (culminating with the distruction of Jerusalem in AD 70). The Church has taken their place as God's special people.
I'm afeared that whenever I hear someone seem to put emphasis on Isreal/the Jews as being particularly special in addition to the church that 'dispensationalism' screams in my mind--even if it is unjust--which I believe is the case here. So I just wanted to understand a little better what you meant. I think we pretty much agree here...with this vague difference I'm having trouble grasping.
No, no, no! Rachael, I know that I am not apart of your conversation, and I do hate debates, but I must disagree with you! The church has NOT taken the place of God's chosen people. God chose Abraham, He chose Moses, He chose David, He chose Mary to be the mother of Jesus. The Jews are His chosen or "elect" people. And after they had rejected and rejected Him, He grafted us in. But He didn't just throw them out. They are still His elect. They are not an addition to the church, WE are the addition.Delete
I am sorry for butting in, but I really felt that that needed to be said.
Yeah, that's more what I am aiming for, but still taking into account that some "Israelites" today probably aren't really, due to bloodlines etc. In Romans it refers to us being "grafted in" to the branch. The Jews weren't entirely cut off, we just got into the party with them.Delete
So, to make it simple, since there is that whole "real Jew" deal, it is probably safest to say the elect Jews will be saved, and the elect Gentiles will be saved, and who those are with which bloodlines are God's business. I would have to agree with Sadie though that God hasn't whole-heartedly turned his back on the Jews, from what I understand of scripture.
Thanks for the dialog though! I enjoy these things. keep it up, and don't feel bad about butting in Sadie, it was everyone's conversation.
Well...I disagree, but I don't think is something to get our knickers in knot over. Anyway, if it all works out the same (i.e. all the elect--whatever branch they are--are saved), it doesn't really serve any purpose to wrangle over it, does it?Delete
Don't mind your 'butting' in Sadie, not at all :) Just for the record though--I don't disagree that God chose Abraham, Moses, David, Mary, etc. Nor that the OT Israelites were the 'chosen' people of God. They aren't an addition to us, nor are we an addition to them--we are the continuation of Israel; just under a different dispensation of the covenant. That's how I see it, but somehow I think you are going to disagree with me :) Either way, the elect of God will be saved...no doubt about that.

When describing their research, chemists often say that they operate "at the molecular level". This is entirely logical to them since they can synthesise molecules, can measure the properties of molecules and can rationalise their reactivity and structure. But for the general public it is hard to see the world at the chemist's molecular level since one cannot see molecules, which is why it is hard to appreciate the successes and discoveries of modern chemistry. Moreover, the public is often guided by the perception that "natural" is good and "synthetic" is not, a premise that this book sets out to challenge. Philip Ball conveys to the non-chemist a sense of the molecular world, and the different roles that molecules, natural and synthetic can take in this world.
He argues that it is not enough for chemists to preach the usefulness and myriad applications of their subject, but that we must explain the similarities between the chemistry that underpins life, and the chemistry that can be achieved using chemical synthesis, biotechnology and nanotechnology. He thus describes the molecular processes of biochemistry and then illustrates how today's research chemists can mimic this chemistry.
The book poses the question "what are molecules?" How do we know their composition and structure? Ball explains how early chemists found by experiment the structures of molecules and were later able to rationalise their structures and reactivity in terms of chemical bonding. He follows this with an explanation of how chemists were able to synthesise molecules, initially by accidental discovery in the case of Perkin's purple dye, and later by careful design and retrosynthesis; the recent total syntheses of taxol and inorganic molecular wheels are cited as examples.
Then Ball introduces the molecules of life: the cellular machinery of enzymes and DNA that underpin cellular life. Here he manages to introduce several complex ideas such as protein folding, molecular evolution and pre-biotic chemistry, while holding the attention of the reader and not resorting to scientific detail.
The molecular world of materials, in particular biomaterials, is explored next, using cellular proteins such as collagen, silk and tubulin as examples, and compared with the more familiar macroscopic world of architecture. Current developments in the assembly of biomaterials, using biotechnology and powerful new materials such as carbon nanotubes, are then compared, showing how chemists are able to learn from nature to make new materials.
After that we learn how cells make energy and how organisms achieve motion via molecular motors such as dynein, myosin and ATP synthase, and how today's chemists are able to use nanotechnology to make and observe our own molecular motors. The ability of cells to store and transmit information, via messengers such as hormones, is compared with the ability of modern chemists to design molecules that can interact non-covalently - the science of supramolecular chemistry - leading to the design of molecular electronic devices that mimic the action of the brain.
Stories of the Invisible is a lucid account of the way that chemists see the molecular world and how research is able to mimic the chemistry of life. There are places where the curious reader might wish for more elaboration or illustration of concepts that are referred to briefly, but the text is enriched with many historical and literature references, and is accessible to the reader untrained in chemistry for whom it was written.
