Radio Disney is selling its Boston station
Salem Media Group is buying Boston's WMKI 1260 for $500,000 from Radio Disney. In an application filed Friday with the Federal Communications Commission, Radio Disney sought to assign the 5,000-watt station to California-based Salem, which also owns WEZE/The Word 590, WROL 950/The Spirit and WWDJ/Radio Luz 1150 in the Boston market. Salem Boston's operations are based in Quincy.
Last August, Radio Disney said it would sell WMKI and 22 other stations out of 24 in its broadcast network(BRW 8/18/14). It retained a station in Los Angeles. WMKI's local staffers were all let go last September and the station has been running in the automated mode since then. Ironically, Salem owned AM 1260 from 1978 until 1997 when it sold it for $5 million. The station converted to the outgoing Radio Disney format on November 21, 1997.
Salem owns about a 100 stations around the country. It's widely expected that the latest Salem's local addition will result in another news/talk station in Boston and possibly become Rush Limbaugh's new local affiliate after he ends his run on WRKO 680 on July 3rd. Another Quincy-based station, WMEX 1510, which relaunched its new talk lineup this past Tuesday, declined to carry Rush locally. However, as of this week, WMEX's midday 12-3pm slot is still airing tape-delayed Glenn Beck show. Utica-based host Bill Keeler was supposed to do have a new show in that time slot but is yet to debut.
Salem's radio portfolio currently includes its "The Answer" conservative talk brand which is carried on about two dozen of its stations. The national lineup includes several Salem Radio Network hosts, including Bill Bennett, Mike Gallagher, Michael Medved and Hugh Hewitt all of whom were previously heard locally on Salem's AM 1150(currently Radio Luz 1150) signal from 2003 to 2008.

Pawlenty to skip GOP endorsing convention, going straight to primary
ST. PAUL --Former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty has announced he plans to skip early June's Republican state convention and go straight to the Aug.14 primary, drawing sharp criticism from another GOP candidate in the race and the Democratic party.
Pawlenty's decision means he won't be seeking the party's endorsement.
In a statement Tuesday, his campaign said the two-term governor entered the race too late for to have a "fair fight" for the endorsement.
Hennepin County Commissioner Jeff Johnson, viewed as the front-runner for endorsement, said in a statement Tuesday, Pawlenty "claims to be the 'A Team' and the only strong Republican in the race, but a strong candidate would be able to win the support of the most active Republicans in MN. If he can't even compete for the support of his base, he'll be a disaster in the General Election."
The Democratic Governors Association said in a statement, "recent Wall Street lobbyist Tim Pawlenty, who represents the perfect ideal of everything voters are rejecting in the Trump-era, will forgo courting base Republican activists because he is afraid he will lose the convention process."
Also in the Republican race is Woodbury Mayor Mary Giuliani Stephens.

And here are some of the Girls just hanging out!
After eating all the pizza we could and sharing with one another we went out side, on pizza hut's front lawn and started diggin into our first lesson. What did we learn? SOOOOOOOOOOO gald you asked! :)
First we learned that Guys are different than girls! DUH! Right! We talked about why it's good to be a girl! And shared some prayer requests! Sorry I didn't get any outside pictures. It was a beautiful day!
Psalm 139:13-14
For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
Hope you have a Beautiful Week!


text: Two heads often are better than one, it is said. However, the old adage does not go far enough, at least when it comes to group diagnostic situations, where pathologists, radiologists and surgeons at a hospital review a case before deciding on a course of treatment. During such collaborations, two, four, six or more heads will be involved, along with twice as many eyes.The challenge comes in presenting the complete diagnostic picture to all those viewers, noted Tedd Kelemen, clinical product manager for Olympus Canada Inc. "The pathologists are going to get their crack at it. They're going to present data in one way, shape or form. It's generally going to be visual data."Imagery of a cell is captured and displayed via an Olympus microscopy imaging system that uses a Toshiba HD camera and display. This presentation has been handled in various ways in the past, but a new approach now is possible, thanks to technical advances. Olympus has incorporated a high-definition camera and display from Toshiba into a microscope imaging system. The system enables a group of clinicians to view a pathology slide on the screen almost as though the slide were being seen in a microscope by each group member individually.Although pathologists often capture data using a digital camera, in the past their first option in presenting that data was a report. They would embed their images in a document and deliver the report to the tumor review board. Unfortunately, this took time and also required the pathologists to anticipate questions. If someone wanted to look at part of a slide at a magnification that differed from the one in the report, he was out of luck.Toshiba uses a proprietary prism block technology to divide incoming light and route it to red, green and blue CCD imagers to ensure that each color is captured at full resolution.Pathologists had another option. They could set up a microscope in the review room, hook up a video camera and feed the 30-fps images to a display. However, generally such cameras were analog, and they captured images according to the NTSC standard. As a result, the resolution and the contrast were often limited.Connecting such a camera to a new high-definition display did not help and sometimes led to problems because the aspect ratio of new displays is 16:9, whereas the camera would be outputting 4:3 aspect ratio images. This difference could change the shape of images on the screen, a potential problem because cell shape is important in pathology.As a final option, pathologists could elect to use a multiheaded microscope. Olympus itself makes such systems, which can have as many as 18 heads. This solution requires plenty of space, special tables and technical support, but it does have the advantage of being accepted for primary diagnosis.Sufficient detail, contrast and color are important when viewing a slide, but these are not the only key parameters in a group diagnostic session. "Speed is very important. They need to be able to see the whole slide at all the magnifications the microscope has," Kelemen said.After evaluating various solutions, Olympus developed a microscopy imaging system based on a high-definition camera with a display from Toshiba. The 30-fps camera outputs data in a 1080i format. It has three CCD sensors with a prism block that ensures the right optical alignment of the sensors to one another. Because of the nature of the audience, the alignment has an offset of a half pixel of the green to the red and blue."The human eye sees more green, so when we do that half-pixel offset, that makes it the best possible image quality you can get to the human eye," said Gary Pitre, Eastern regional sales manager of the Imaging Systems Div. of Toshiba America Information Systems in Irvine, Calif.The 42-in. LCD display that presents the data has a maximum resolution of 1920 × 1080 pixels, a contrast ratio of 1000:1, brightness of 600 candelas per square meter and a viewing angle of nearly 180¼.The product has just been released and now is undergoing initial evaluations by tumor review boards and other parties. So far, these efforts have generated a very positive response. "Everybody agrees it's the best live visualization tool they've ever seen. They have no issues about being able to diagnose from what they're seeing on the display," Kelemen said.In addition to clinical settings, the system could be used in a teaching environment, allowing students and instructors to see the same specimen. One possible future enhancement would be the addition of the ability to snap a picture, but Kelemen noted that this would have to be done in a simple manner so as not to interfere with the system's primary intended use, which is visualization.Contact: Gary Pitre, Toshiba America Information Systems Inc., Irvine, Calif.; e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com; Tedd Kele-men, Olympus Canada Inc., Markham, Ontario, Canada; e-mail: email@example.com.

Judgment is the issue
Jerome Armstrong comments on Bill Clinton's suggestion that it is time for Democrats to put forward a plan for Social Security:
Clinton will be dead and gone before Social Security needs to be changed, but he's decided that he's had enough of seeing Bush get his ass kicked by Democrats over the issue of Social Security. Did the Republicans come up with a plan when the Clintons tried to reform Healthcare? No, and that's why Bill Clinton got the Democratic Congressional leadership's head handed to him after the '94 midterm election. Now though, Clinton is supplying Republican talking points:
Former President Bill Clinton: "[I] Think [Democrats] Need To Come Up With A Plan Of Their Own." (ABC's "Saturday Good Morning America," 5/7/05, Via ABC News' "The Note," 5/5/05)
President Clinton: "I Think The Democrats Should Say What They Are For On Social Security In The Next Couple Weeks ... The Democrats Should Have A Plan And They Should Talk To The President And The Congressional Republicans About It." (ABC's "Saturday Good Morning America," 5/7/05, Via ABC News' "The Note," 5/5/05)
Let me guess, Hillary has a plan; let me guess, it raises taxes; let me guess, the Clinton's are going to find a way for themselves to shine while the Democratic Party gets beat again.
The Democratic Plan is already in action-- it's called Social Security.
The Democrat's problem has been that they have been all to willing to lend the Republicans a helping hand just when they are most in trouble. They don't have the killer instinct when it comes to taking advantage of the blunders of the opposition. Does this mean that they are wimps? No, it just means that they, generally, think beyond the simple calculus of political advantage over the opposition and factor into it the greater needs of society (i.e., they are the more responsible of the two parties). Clinton's suggestion that Democrats should have a plan for Social Security is not, in itself, a bad thing. Democrats should have plans for all the major issues of the day.
So what is the problem with Clinton's suggestion? Is it simply, as Jerome suggests, that Clinton is trying to use the situation to the advantage of his wife at the expense of wider Democratic goals? I prefer to leave questions of motivation out of this. Clinton may honestly believe that it is to the Democrats advantage to counter Bush's privatization plans with plans of their own. Unfortunately, like so many short-sighted Democrats of recent years, Clinton doesn't appear to understand that just offering a counter-plan provides justification to the Republican initiative.
And that, I think, is where Democrats get into trouble. It's not that Social Security doesn't have problems that need addressing. It's that Democrats allow the Republicans to frame the terms of the debate and to set the agenda of what will be debated.
Regardless of whether Democrats take up Clinton's suggestion or not, they will still give the appearance of being purely reactionary in their public policy. Bush made Social Security his #1 domestic issue. By offering a counter proposal, the Democrats would, more then anything, validate Bush's assertion that it is the #1 domestic problem facing the country today. But by offering nothing they will also be validating that agenda, albeit indirectly, by ceding to Bush the authority to set the agenda.
This is where Democrats need to fight back, not on whether Social Security needs to be fixed but instead on Bush's placement of it at the top of the domestic agenda. We need to question Bush's judgment when it comes to setting priorities. Why has Bush devoted so much energy to this issue when there are much more pressing problems clamoring for attention (e.g., health care, the national debt, etc.)
And Bush's questionable judgment isn't limited to Social Security. Dubya has a habit of focusing on the middling problems while shoving off the bigger problems to someone else to solve. We see this domestically, but we also see it in foreign policy, where Bush chose to move Iraq ahead of issues like the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, North Korea and yes, even international terrorism (though he used the latter as an excuse to justify his invasion of Iraq).
Bush repeatedly demonstrates poor judgment when it comes to setting the agenda of the US government, both foreign and domestic. By offering a counter-proposals to Bush's initiatives, Democrats are simply validating his agenda decisions. By ceding to him the authority to set the agenda the Democrats are giving up on the most devastating critique they could make of his Presidency.
Social Security faces problems, but they are not the most pressing problems we face domestically. Bush has chosen to make it the #1 issue through a combination of incompetence, ideology and as a payoff to the special interests that back him.
Iraq was a problem, but it wasn't the most pressing problem we faced internationally. Bush chose to make it the #1 issue through a combination of incompetence, ideology and as a payoff to the special interests that back him.
Judgment is the issue.

Westerman Named to House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee
WASHINGTON – Congressman Bruce Westerman (AR-04) has been named to the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, Chairman Bill Shuster (PA-09) announced Friday (January 13).
"Congressman Westerman brings a wealth of relevant experience to the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, and his engineering background in particular will provide us with a unique and fresh-perspective," Shuster said. "Bruce has proven himself to be a problem solver and a hard worker since taking office, and I look forward to his contributions as we work to ensure America has a 21st century infrastructure."
An engineer and forester for 22 years at Mid-South Engineering in Hot Springs, Westerman is a registered professional engineer and forester. In 2013, he was named Engineer of the Year by the Arkansas Society of Professional Engineers.
In a statement, Speaker of the House Paul Ryan called Westerman "the perfect choice" for the committee.
"As a professional engineer by trade, Bruce is the perfect choice for the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee," Ryan said. "His first term proved he's a thoughtful leader with innovative strategies. I know Bruce will play an important role on this committee while continuing his good work on the Budget and Natural Resources committees."
Westerman said he would work to improve infrastructure across the Fourth Congressional District as a member of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.
"Transportation and infrastructure are issues of vital importance to the Fourth Congressional District of Arkansas," Westerman said. "With our district's varied infrastructure, it is important to have a voice on the committee of jurisdiction. That is why I advocated joining the T&I Committee. We must work to improve maintenance along the Fourth District's navigational channels, find a permanent solution for funding our roads and bridges, and protect our important pipeline and railroad infrastructure. I want to thank Chairman Shuster, the Steering Committee, and Speaker Ryan for this appointment."
In addition to Transportation and Infrastructure, Westerman will continue serving on the House Committee on the Budget and the House Committee on Natural Resources. He began his second term in the U.S. House of Representatives on January 3, 2017.

The easy answer is: you try something new!
Today I want to share with you a Math Curriculum that is working for us at the moment. We have used it on and off for the last year and a half with success. So in June, we decided to fully commit to it and adopted Mathematical Reasoning as our Core Curriculum for my 4th and 6th graders.
Before I tell you the pros and cons, it's important to realize that we are an unique family. What might work for our family, might not be a perfect fit for your family. Then again, what I share here today may be just what you needed to hear to have the courage to implement some changes and see your children finally enjoying math.
If you are new here you might want to read some of my Learning Log posts to see how eclectic our home education is.
My Learning Log posts are shared once a month and contains a list of sort of the resources we use in our home education. I list the books that all my children are reading or listening to. I list the curricula we are using, if we are using one at all and for what subject. I list the websites we use as math, science or history. I list the books I am reading. The resources I found that are new to me and the kids. The unexpected websites the children are using to learn music or computer coding. The activities we are participating in.
My Learning Logs could be a great resource for your family.
Consider subscribing to my blog to be notified when I post my Learning Logs. (I really got the idea for it, a few years back, from Christina Pilkington. Check her blog out!)
As you can see we, as a family, peruse the internet a lot. We have 4 computers, 3 tablets and 2 Kindles. My DH (dear husband) is a self taught computer geek – our own personal IT. :) We are not very traditional in our school at all.
I would say that the most consistent and traditional part of our homeschooling is our math curriculum.
I love FREE resources (one reason we use the internet a lot) and have a hard time actually buying curricula. Don't get me wrong. I love curricula. I just don't have enough money to spend on all the curricula I would like to try. I have a hard time committing fully to only one curriculum when there's so much good stuff out there. (I love to change things around. A lot.) So I usually research a lot, and sit on my decision for months, sometimes years before making the jump.
I received my first Mathematical Reasoning book, level D, grade 3, for free from a friend. She had bought it for her son as a supplemental resource and really never used because he was doing well on Singapore Math Curriculum and really didn't need any extra work.
Mathematical Reasoning book, level E, grade 4, was given to me by CriticalThinking Co. as a complimentary copy in exchange for this review.
Mathematical Reasoning book, level F, grade 5, I purchased on Amazon for a discounted price. I think I saved $5.00. Yes, I like to save as much as I can. :)
Below you will find a list of reasons why I actually spend money on this math curriculum and it's making all the difference in our home education.
Here is my list of pros:
1) The books are full of illustrations and color.
They might even remind you of one of those supplemental books used by public school students that are sold at Walmart. (I have nothing against these either. They are a great resource and have used them with my kids before. I believe you can use anything to teach your kids). However, Mathematical Reasoning books are more elaborate and for the visual learner they are paradise!
We tried Saxon Math at one time and the gray pages were a complete put off. I know that the newest editions might have a bit more color. But usually it's one extra color besides the black and white. This is ideal for the logical learner who is no nonsense and wants to stick to the point of the subject of math.
But for the visual learner, colors all over your page is a boost to his energy and thinking processes. For this, Mathematical Reasoning was a win win for my creative visual learner children.
2) The problems presented in the book are very close to real life situations.
Diners, yard sales, football games, cookie and pizza sharing are all situations that will cause you to use math. Because many of the word problems are presented in this format, my children can see quickly how math can be useful in their daily life. An extra bonus is that those word problems are illustrated with colorful charts and pictures.
3) Puzzles and games throughout the book.
My DD11 had a collection of Mathmania books that she would work on in her free time. As an unschooler wanna be and an eclectic MOm, I know there's no such thing as free time.
Every experience is a learning opportunity.
The time she spent playing games, calculating prices, figuring out puzzles and challenges she was practicing her addition, subtraction, multiplication, division skills and so much more.
Mathematical Reasoning books are filled with challenges, puzzles, games, crosswords (using numbers) that entice and challenge my children to do one more page. Some of those games are Balance Benders style pages (like the one pictured above) which are basically algebra concepts being taught in a fun way.
4) Mathematical Reasoning teaches critical thinking.
Another huge bonus of this curriculum, is that it teaches critical thinking instead of just exercising the kids in math drills. For me, more important than memorizing mathematical definitions or facts is knowing how to use them. Many times we know how to do something but we have no idea there's a name for it. (think cooking skills, gardening etc) That is much more valuable than knowing definitions and theories but having no practical skills.
"These highly effective activities take students far beyond drill-and-practice by using step-by-step, discussion-based problem-solving to develop a conceptual bridge between computation and the reasoning required for upper-level math." from the Publisher's website.
I want my kids engaged using the skills they learned not busy wearing themselves out doing math drills. My Dad said it rightly, "If he knows how to solve this problem, after 4 or 5 he's done. There's no need for him to do 30 of them."
I have used repetition before, as punishment, with a child that was making mistakes due to inattentiveness. The goal was for him to practice focusing and paying attention at what he is doing. But once he proved to me he was focused, we moved on. We don't fill out pages just to say we finished the book.
5. The material is presented in a Spiral concept.
I have used another Math Curriculum that I loved but unfortunately it did not have the spiral concept.
What is the spiral concept? Nothing more than presenting the same topic over and over again so that the student will not forget it.
Now because Mathematical Reasoning is full of games and challenging puzzles, this way of doing math is not boring. My children are not doing another fraction drill, they are solving a pizza sharing situation or comparing who has eaten the most pizza slices if the pizzas were cut into a different number of slices.
Because the topics are spread throughout the book instead of divided into units or chapters, my kids are even allowed to skip that topic completely (Gasp!) if I know they have mastered it.
6) Affordable price and compact material.
Each book is about $40.00
That is not bad for a curriculum you will use for a whole year!
Everything you need to do math is in one huge book (about 300-400 pages). No extra workbooks, quizzes, textbook, manuals or answer keys.The answers are at the end of the book.
Of course, no math curriculum is perfect! (Although Mathematical Reasoning is close!)
Here are the cons I found with this curriculum:
1) The Binding is not strong enough!
What? Am I complaining about the binding? Yes!
Mathematical Reasoning books are THICK. The level D book, grade 3, has almost 400 pages. My then 8 year old son was not gentle with this book. He dragged it around the house. He worked on it on the floor, the desk, on his bed... and the covers fell off.
I like the thickness of the book. I had rather have a big thick math book, than a book split into many unit books. But the binding design needs to be revisited. Maybe a spiral binding would work. I don't know. I know that the one they have now, it's not working.
My DD11 has been using her book for the last 3 months, has completed 1/2 of the book and it's already showing signs of wear.
2) There's no Teacher's Guide or lengthy explanations.
Before I explain this con, I need to say that this was really NOT a con for ME, but I see how it could be for another parent.
I hate Teacher's Guides or any manuals that give a parent a script to read when teaching her child, or a manual of how to or what to do next. I never buy them. I never use them. I know I may sound weird but I had rather have the freedom to choose what's the best way to learn than to use a script. A manual robs me of the joy of teaching and learning.
All that to say that the explanations in the books are minimal. More like examples to follow than an elaborated explanation of the concept being introduced.
Most of the time, they were enough for my children. When they couldn't grasp the concept I used other resources. But I have done that with other curricula so I don't think it's a flaw of Mathematical Reasoning. I think it's a flaw with the parent or child.
Some parents may find Mathematical Reasoning a challenge if they don't like math, don't understand it or are afraid of it. This curriculum is very parents' hands-on. You might have to help your child work out some of the puzzles or challenges. You may find yourself explaining how to factor a number or reduce a fraction.
If you skipped why our family is unique at the beginning of the post, you might want to read it now to understand why Mathematical Reasoning worked and is working for us.
3) There's no HOW TO to solve puzzles and challenges.
Sometimes I found myself cornered by not being able to solve a problem. The book does provide answers but not HOW TO solutions.
Because I enjoyed the challenge, we kept working on a a puzzle for a couple of days until we found the solution. That just helped fixate the knowledge or concept being taught.
Again if the parent has low mathematical thinking skills or interest, this book might be a challenge for her.
4) There's no Mental Practice allotted in the book.
Unlike Singapore Math and Saxon, Mathematical Reasoning does not include mental math in their books. BUT that doesn't mean you, as parent, can't turn some of their exercises into a mental math practice.
Just like we did with Singapore Math, sometimes I turned word problems or exercises into oral drills or quizzes.
And here I come to the end of this review. I hope this post was useful to you.
Overall, I really like Mathematical Reasoning curriculum because it is very flexible, colorful and engaging.
My DD11 and I have finally stopped fighting over math. She's finally realized she can do math. This is a great and important step for a child to engage into doing a skill. If the child keeps failing, it's difficult to find the motivation to continue.
My DS9 can do his math as quickly as he likes. I actually let him pick 4 pages to do a day. Some days he picks more, some days I sit with him and choose the pages for him.
At the time of this post, both children are half way through their books. DD11 is working on level F (5th grade) and DS9 is working on level E (4th grade). We will probably be heading to 6th grade level math together in 4 months.
I hope you try it out if you are looking for a curriculum for your visual and creative child. Or for your math aficionado that loves to play games and puzzles in his free time.
Please let me know your thoughts in the comment section. I will be glad to answer any questions.
I received one complementary Mathematical Reasoning book in exchange for my review. This blog is my own personal opinion.

Following the advent of special economic zones (SEZs) and a liberalised trade policy regime under which import duties are being brought down, the Revenue Department on Thursday notified timelines for various activities undertaken by 100 per cent export-oriented units (EOUs) in a bid to cut down their transaction cost and lend transparency in administering procedures.
Accordingly, the permissions to be given by the Customs/Central Excise authorities in the field to the 100 per cent export-oriented units are now set as prescribed timelines with a view to precluding arbitrariness by the officers and harassment of the exporting units.
Procurement Certificate
The circular of the Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC) issued here prescribes that certain permissions such as issue of Procurement Certificate for duty-free import of goods, issue of CT-3 Certificate for duty-free domestic procurement, issue of certificate for broad banding of goods and exports are now required to be accorded the same day when applications are sent by the EOUs.
Similarly, other permissions such as execution and acceptance of B-17 Bond, warehousing of goods, issue of re-warehousing certificate, permission for re-export, extension of job/sub-contract are required to be given within a day.
Thus, under the new circular, issue of licence for units under EOU/Software Technology Park (STP)/Electronic Hardware Technology Park (EHTP) under Section 58 and Section 65 of Customs Act, 1962, the time for disposal of applications would be five days, while for extension/renewal of licence and broad banding of licence the permission would be granted within three days.
Again, permission for job-work/subcontract by the EOUs/EHTP/STP units would be granted within five days, while permission for re-export of rejected raw material/capital goods/consumables or renewal/extension of job work/sub-contract in case of no change in the application would be granted in a day.
These proposed timelines would be exclusive of holidays. It is clarified that where any deficiency is detected in the application or any additional information/action is needed, the proposed time period would apply only after correction of deficiency and re-submission of the complete application.
Reacting to the notification, the Director General, Export Promotion Council for EOUs and SEZ Units (EPCES), Mr L.B. Singal, said that this has been the long-standing demand of the exporting community as the delay in getting required permissions from Customs/Central Excise authorities was adversely impacting on the functioning of these exporting units.
Improving Transparency
He said the new notified timelines would go a long way in bringing about uniformity in the field of implementation of 100 per cent EOU scheme, reducing transaction cost and improving transparency so that EOUs could carry on their day-to-day operations in a methodical manner.
Mr Singal also recalled that the notification issued on December 27, 2006, about implementation of the SEZ Act 2005 and the SEZ Rules 2006 would certainly result in smooth functioning of SEZ as the SEZ circulation draws attention to Section 51 of the SEZ Act 2005 which provides that in case of any inconsistency the provisions of the SEZ Act should prevail.

Discussion: Why Rereading is Getting Harder
Has anyone else had a problem getting into rereads? Or are you feeling drained by things coming out? Even better: can you recommend me something that's different?
6 comments:
I've been trying to reread one old favorite every month this year. So far, I haven't had trouble getting into them. Maybe because it has been so many years since I originally read them. I do feel guilty about rereading when my TBR shelf is full of new books, though.ReplyDelete
Aj @ Read All The Things!Replies
Oh that's a great goal to set for yourself. I definitely think that putting more time between reads helps; at least for me, with my poor memory, I forget a lot about details and plot after about two years, so it can become like reading a book for the first time.Delete
It's so hard to divide time between new books and old, well loved, books. Hopefully someday it will become easier to choose, haha. Thanks for stopping by!
You didn't like Lady Midnight ? WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH SAM ?!ReplyDelete
*clears throat* let's be serious now. I'm not a rereader because I don't want to change my opinion about a book I loved (except for ASOIAF, I don't think I can grow out of it). What you said about YA is completely true. I've been in a slump for two weeks just because I can't find a book with an original concept. They're all about the same things (especially in YA fantasy, the girl who wants to take back her kingdom ? Boring.)
Hum... a book that's different... Have you read Stolen by Lucy Christopher ? I know you're not really into contemporaries but this one is pretty interesting. Or Gilded Cage, this book is amazing.Replies
Haha, right?! I loved it the first time but something about the reread... idk it just didn't hook me the same at all. Hmm that's fair; normally when I reread I change my opinion for the better, but now that I'm not enjoying them as much it is something I need to worry about to. Haha yeah I've read GOT several times (it's the rest of the series that I have a hard time continuing with for whatever reason...).Delete
Hmm it sounds super familiar and looking it up the cover is super familiar as well, but I can't place whether I actually read it or not. It's possible I borrowed it from someone, or from the library, but never read it. Definitely adding it to my TBR; thanks for the rec. As for Gilded Cage, I got halfway through an ARC but for some reason I put it down before finishing. I absolutely need to finish it though, especially if you liked it!
I don't reread all that often - never really have, aside from HP or certain passages of other favorites.ReplyDelete
Thank you so much for commenting! I love to hear from you and try to respond to comments once or twice a week. Thank you for your patience :)

"Waiting on" Wednesday is a weekly meme, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that showcases upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating!
I first heard about it from PageTurnersBlog.
My Waiting on Wednesday this week:
Ripple by Mandy Hubbard
Publication Date: July 21, 2011
Lexi is cursed with a dark secret. Each day she goes to school like a normal teenager, and each night she must swim, or the pain will be unbearable. She is a siren - a deadly mermaid destined to lure men to their watery deaths. After a terrible tragedy, Lexi shut herself off from the world, vowing to protect the ones she loves. But she soon finds herself caught between a new boy at school who may have the power to melt her icy exterior, and a handsome water spirit who says he can break Lexi's curse if she gives up everything else. Lexi is faced with the hardest decision she's ever had to make: the life she's always longed for - or the love she can't live without?
From Goodreads
I still have yet to read any mermaid/siren stories even though I've talked about how I'm super interested to read one! Still, I'm going to add this one to that list, because it sounds really really awesome. I love the colour of her dress on the cover (I can only imagine what it will look like in print), and the little bit of something on her calves is so subtle you barely notice it, but it still makes you wonder (click the picture to see it better).
What upcoming releases are you looking forward to this week?

In the last installment of the charming Winter Street trilogy, the Quinn family braces for the storm of the century.
Unlike the first two novels, which span just a few days over two consecutive Christmases at the Quinn's historic Nantucket inn, the finale covers much of a year and shifts the focus from patriarch Kelley Quinn to his four children. Youngest son Bart is still missing in action in Afghanistan—the light in his childhood room has remained on for the past 18 months. Eldest son Patrick is serving the last few months of a prison sentence for fraud, while his wife Jennifer's patrician life is crumbling thanks to prescription drugs. Kevin, the flaky middle son approaching middle age, is finally coming into his own with a successful beachside eatery and a blooming confidence—he's finally proposed to girlfriend Isabelle. Lastly, Ava is in the enviable position (or not, depending on her mood) of dating both carpenter Nathaniel and vice principal Scott. Adding to her romantic confusion, she meets Potter, a professor at Columbia, who offers her a vision of a life beyond the island. As the Quinn children finally iron out their lives, Kelley confronts the end of his own—his cancer, thought to be in remission, has moved to his brain, with increasingly debilitating results. All is brought to a frantic head on Christmas Eve, the date of Kevin and Isabelle's wedding, when an impending snowstorm strands the guests off-island. If this all seems a bit soapy, Hilderbrand's tight pacing and breezy tone keep the story from heavy-handedness. But be warned: when Bart's MIA status finds resolution, tears may be shed.
A series only works when the characters are worth following over the long haul, and Hilderbrand is a master, making for a satisfying conclusion to her Christmas at the Inn story.

Minnie Mouse birthday card
My Granddaughter's 3rd birthday is coming soon. I dusted off my cricut for this one. Using the Mickey & Friends cartridge I cut out Minnie Mouse. I used a glossy black cardstock for the base of the image. It sure makes the other pieces "pop". The roses are a border image from that cartridge also. I flocked the roses then added glitter to them. The Happy Birthday is from the Beyond Birthdays cartridge.
The background paper was some that I had made for me at a convention 2 years ago. I had been hording it for a special occasion and decided this was that occasion.
My cricut started making this "clunking" noise while it was cutting. Sure hope my baby bug is not getting ready to croke!

&Tradition VP6 Topan Pendant Light
The painter-turned-architect Verner Panton slated himself as a visionary of the moment when he designed the hotel and restaurant Astoria in Trondheim, Norway in 1960. After he covered the floors, walls, and ceilings with his bold textile designs Geometry I to IV, he dotted the rest of the space with his VP6 Topan Pendants—which he designed specifically for the project and became his first mass-produced object. The simplicity and coolness of the design has endured over the years, finding its way from psychedelic interiors of the '60s, to minimal, modern spaces of today. The pendant lights are spun into shape from a single piece of aluminum by skilled craftsmen in Denmark. The glossy, lacquered finish—available in multiple color options—is matched with a color-coordinated fabric cord.

So, you are looking for a Used Jeep for sale? We have to say "Great taste of car!" And, we are very glad that you choose CAR FROM JAPAN, one of the biggest and most trust-worthy Japanese used car platforms. The fact that you choose Car From Japan shows that you have a really high standard on the things you do! We know we have such a large stock for Jeep used cars, it might be difficult for you to choose the best one. To make it easier for you to make the decision, CAR FROM JAPAN has the button Inquire Now or Free quote; by clicking this button, you can connect with our professional sales specialists for consultation. Another way is to skim through our below tips on how to choose the best car with the best price.
The first step is to set up a total budget, which includes tax, registration fee, periodic maintenance fees, etc. This will help you avoid overspending at the beginning and run out of cash later on.
On CAR FROM JAPAN website, if you input your final country and port destination, we will show you exact Jeep price in Kenya up to your port, which is called CIF price. Then you can sort CIF price from low to high and from the Jeep price list, choose the best car for you.
One tip is not to go with the cheapest one in the list right away. The cheapest car is good, it can save you some up-front money, but make sure it will not cost you a lot more over the long-term. Our advice is: First, pick up several Used Jeep for sale , and try to collect as much information about each car as possible. On www.carfromjapan.com website, we provide you a lot of information about condition status. If a car has a good condition, a healthy engine, a plenty of useful accessories, give it some extra points. Then decide based on all factors in a big picture.
A good way to look at mileage is to count as average mileage per year. We believe that both too less and too much of mileage count can be bad for the car that you are looking for. Too much of mileage will mean the car is used a lot and hence, the chance of the car parts being worn out is higher. Too less of mileage will mean that is not used regularly and hence the change of the parts getting rusted or worn out merely because of time passed is high. It is important to note that, if a car has high mileage but it was serviced regularly and maintained properly, most of the time it will function as good as the good mileage car. So, these tips would be perfect for you to choose for yourself a Jeep low mileage.
For instance, if the car is a sedan family car, average 15,000km per year is very much acceptable as mileage count. Less than 1,000km per year will be a warning to look out for rust and related troubles. On the other hand, if the unit is a truck for business, the acceptable mileage count can be as high as 50,000km per year. Because these cars are moving all the time.
Jeep fuel consumption is the next factor for you to consider. According to car experts, if you want to buy a Jeep low fuel consumption, you will need to check the engine size, car size and engine type of this car carefully. For example, if the car is a normal petrol car, a 1000cc engine will mean around 20km per liter of petrol when purchased the unit. If the engine size is 2000cc, fuel consumption is expected to be 14km per liter. If the car has 3000cc engine, think that it will consume 1 liter to go 10 km when new.
Another option for you, if you are looking for a used car with fuel efficiency to buy, let's consider for yourself a hybrid car. In Japan now, there is more and more cars are getting hybrid fuel system and currently around 30% of all the cars that Japanese use are hybrid cars. For hybrid cars, the fuel consumption is very different from petrol cars, even with the same engine size. For example, 1800cc 5 seater mini SUV with a hybrid engine will give 30km per liter as per catalogue. In actual it is around 25km per liter; which is almost double the efficiency compared to the petrol engine.
Know what you need and only get what you need is always the way to a successful purchase. Driving alone is not exactly the same as a big family. There is a lot of difference between the needs of people who usually spend their time on the highway and those who usually spend their time commuting in the city during rushed hours. Therefore, it is important to take a step back and consider carefully which car would be the right choice, especially when you are Buying an old Jeep . You should look for a right-sized vehicle, a right-sized engine, What is better, petrol or diesel? etc. The easiest way to do that is to make a list of what features that you want from your car and stick to it. Choose the car that perfectly serves your using purpose. In case you want to get more options, taking a look at other Cheap used cars for sale is an effective way to do.
Firstly, Car Condition
Japanese used cars are very well known for having great conditions while being quite cheap. Japanese people, in general take a good care of everything that they own. Also, Japan has a very good maintenance system, which provides a very delightful service to any car.
Secondly, The Well-Developed Public Transportation System
Japan has the most developed public transportation system in the world. Even if a Japanese owns a car, they would be more likely that they will take public transport to commute. So your car would rarely be used unless it is needed to. This leads to the fact that Japanese used cars remain low mileage, excellent engine with less damage.
Thirdly, Fuel Consumption
Most Japanese people drive only when needed, they avoid idling as much as possible, accelerating and using brake steadily. Because of their careful habits of driving, Japanese used cars are usually in lovely fuel consumption condition.
Fourthly, Japanese people don't like the second-hand concept
In Japan, there's always a feeling that people don't want something that has been used even those things are in perfect shape. It is a part of their culture. So why hesitate? Come to CAR FROM JAPAN and get yourself a Used Jeep for sale with a very cheap price comparing to other markets.

Re: wanted worm gear 31 teeth
back side of housing on the drivers side has a stamp on it. "A" or "B". About 8" from center line of axel, on the cone shape part, just before the rivets. "A" is low speed as on my truck. I had a hard time fining it but it was there, Faint, but there. A = 29 teeth. Low speed.

Hi All! I've been looking around this site for a couple weeks, this is my first post, and I want to start by saying that you all totally rock, and I can't believe that I found somewhere that is so in-sync with what I have figured out to be true for myself over these past 5 years or so. For example, craving most what is worst for me, the gateway-drug effect of 1 intoxicating substance to the rest, etc. I'm so excited to have found this site. So, here is my first recipe contribution, adapted from Elaine Gottschall's "Breaking the Vicious Cycle".
Zucchini Muffins
3 c. grated zucchini
3 eggs, beaten
2 1/2 cups almond flour (I use Honeyville brand)
1/3 c. coconut oil
1/4-1/2 c. yacon powder (cheaper than the syrup, still ok?)
1/2 teas. liquid stevia (made from powder, directions on this site)
2 teas. cinnamon
1 teas. baking soda
1/4 teas. salt
Mix almond flour, oil, yacon, and zucchini. Add beaten eggs, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and stevia. Mix well. Bake in mufifn tins, lined with papers, at 350 degrees for 25-30 min.
Super yummy!

You never know what sort of story will inspire a creative imagination. Who could have predicted that a writer and illustrator would unite to resurrect a classic nursery rhyme about athletic livestock and kidnapped eating utensils? Go figure. Janet Stevens and Susan Stevens Crummel have created a classy and amusing update in And the Dish Ran Away with the Spoon. The book would be worthwhile just for the pictures of the character Fork, who cavorts (as much as a legless utensil can cavort) in Technicolor shirts and shades that look like Don Ho activewear.
We all know the story. It ends with the Dish running away with the Spoon, and usually they return so the rhyme can be read again. Unfortunately, one day Dish and Spoon don't return. They are nowhere to be found. Cat explains the problem to the skeptical Dog: "It's the way our rhyme goes. I fiddle, she jumps, you laugh, they run . . . Without Dish and Spoon, there's no rhyme. No more diddle diddle. It's over." Both Cow and Dog suggest alternative endings to the rhyme, but Cat insists that they stop fiddling around. Shameless puns abound in this book, both in the text and in the revised and extended rhyme that accompanies it.
On their quest the animals encounter all sorts of figures from Mother Goose. Fork recognizes the Spoon because they were originally from the same place setting. To help, Fork draws a map, which includes everything from the Three Bears' house to Little Bo Peep's pasture. The legend at the bottom explains the unit of measure: a crooked mile. Spider complains about Miss Muffet's aloofness. Wolf wears bunny slippers, and hanging on his coat tree in the foyer is a button-up sheep suit. In one house bobtailed blind mice lurk in the corners. The author and illustrator, who are sisters, must have enjoyed creating this book.
Let's make the bottom line of this review explicit: Children will love this book, but no more than the adults who read it to them.

Mary she's been posting this up for us in the morning ... and centigrade choppers that the campaign trail in DC tomorrow thanks so much for being here in the sector from our right ... you think you need to go to the Maine coast to get yourself a lobster roll what you know why you're wrong they are ubiquitous now and they're also cheaper rent a how to get want them to come back in thirty seconds ... Zinfandel from Cape Cod ... is a real reality folks does every state really deserve to have a winery ... I don't know Charles Passy his exploring this in his new column ... table for one that's a random attack on right ... and you get to eat in you get a drink you have a really good job announced the release for your time ... I inserted interesting case in your column which is why I love that you take I did this ... this this big picture approach you say ... does every state have to have ... a winery first stop on during our Torquay ... and is ... not necessarily ... aligned with what's going on is there's been this explosion or something like sixty seven percent more wineries in this country than there were six years ago which is just ... amazing and I think anybody has been a tourist you where ... you tell a lasting agreement ... you know as seen that sign winery two mile and a new poll in ... and if you know something about what you think you know ... it's not really very good ... um so what's the point here and the point is that these places have become tourist destinations ... kind of what Howard crystallize for me is what I was just indicate copper a vacation ... and sure enough the isthe winery they're ... bad they're pouring Zinfandel the house needs and can go and and you know which I described is that my tasting notes were ... watered down grade shoots with a twist of lemon and a hint of which he is also a state loud noise it was a case of the yummy bubble was even more shocking about it was that I mean this was like that and try a local board and you can get and this is the day never looking at right I e read read read read read nothing to make some good ones the like and I can mention those but ... but this was the Zinfandel been trucked in the grapes from California ... just so they could say we're making our own Zinfandel ... but they'll grow and to upgrade to the matter the average person though I mean you know there's you can you can go to a place like City winery here in York City ... they Avici truck in there that you can make your online use or take pleasure in that process of that ... maybe it's kind of a gimmick that doesn't matter you have fun doing in the Wonka taste pretty good ... it doesn't do we care for the camera I think because I think inherent in the abover winery is a sense of place and I and I think there's a little bit ... of the deception almost going on um you know look very Vegas not that ... yes there's a myth that of the day Why meaning the actually I don't think I don't think I think I think when you sit and bask in in in a place that that is making wine ... I think it is about just enjoying something local on and and so on to me that sentiment a snob argued maybe it's a local or argument which could be a different type of argument but it's just you know the whole point of a winery to me is the sense of place ... the problem is is many places don't grow the best grapes for wine cellar awesome that's we end up with this any liked the bottle from there there's a ball quickly the effects of the stock to Buy lighthouse bottle they have some other some of the better ones from other fun ones are done the lighthouse bottles and if you want the one you can buy the bulk of three boxes of an idea for my so awful for her and then the fierce winds not good at ... at the end is getting a hard time ... waking beyond straight in things they ... want to look for to read more about that ... right now to stick with food in the winery to stick with lobster the people who need a really ... good lobster roll if you think you need to go to Maine for that ... you are not correct so says Sara Clemence she's right here she's been ... scouring the country on a relay you arguing that the skies you enough to maintain a lobster roll ... the dough in reporting and you're saying that we can get Last or sprawls a pretty decent ... trilogy where they're fairly cheap now I know that's true I mean Maine is still the iconic place yet and it's where your Guinea get the freshest just ... right on to another era and literally right on the third ... sponsored by it and ...

Mrs Jan Buckland
We think that our Head Teacher is very generous, helpful, forgiving and very loyal to us pupils. One of the things we love about Mrs Buckland is that she is always making this a better place: she has just put in a new MUGA; we have re-designed our dining room; she has given us shiny new lockers and she has also enhanced our learning by providing us ipads and laptops! As well as all of this, she absolutely loves her job as much as anything. One of the best things she loves is that she has such an excellent staff. Mrs Buckland has had a lot of experience: because she has taught in 7 schools and this is her third headship.

Mr Matt Ferris
Kingsholm is a fantastic school to be a part of. Children here are offered so many opportunities and it is wonderful to see them flourish as they experience all aspects of school life. My favourite part of teaching is seeing children improving and enjoying school. I am passionate about inspiring experiences for children both in and out of the classroom and children here at Kingsholm have both.
Outside of school, I enjoy running, rugby, scuba diving and spending time with my family.

By Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange,OP
Why does the soul become immutably fixed, in good or in evil, immediately after death? This mystery might be studied after that of the particular judgment, because it becomes more clear by what revelation tells us of this judgment. Nevertheless, since the time of merit is finished, we must study this immutability first.
Let us see what Scripture and tradition tell us of the nature and immutability of the soul. Then we will examine what theologians say in explanation and will distinguish three different explanations of this
immutability. [87]
Immutability in Itself
We do not speak here of the question, studied by physiologists and physicians: When does real death, not merely apparent death, take place? It seems certain in many cases, particularly in accidental and sudden death, that latent life can remain many hours in the organism which a moment before was perfectly sound. It can last, it seems, at least a half-hour when death was brought on by a malady which for a long time has undermined the organism. We consider here only real death, the moment when the soul is separated from the body.
The ordinary magisterium of the Church teaches that the human soul, immediately after death, undergoes judgment on all the actions, good or bad, of its earthly existence. This judgment supposes that the time of merit has passed. This common doctrine has not been solemnly defined, but it is based on Scripture and tradition. There are no merits after death, contrary to what many Protestants teach.
Already in the Old Testament [88] we read: "It is easy before God in the day of death to reward everyone according to his ways, . . . and in the end of a man is the disclosing of his works." [89] According to the New Testament [90] the last judgment is concerned solely with the acts of the present life. In the Gospel according to St. Luke [91] there is question of particular judgment. The rich man and Lazarus are judged, each on the acts of his life, and are judged irrevocably. Abraham replies to the rich man: "Between us and you there is fixed a great chaos."
Jesus said to the good thief: "This day thou shalt be with Me in paradise." [92] We are urged to vigilance and to penance, that we may not be surprised by death. After the parable of the wise and foolish virgins, He says: "Watch ye therefore, because you know not the day nor the hour." [93] St. Paul is still more explicit: "We must all be manifested before the judgment seat of Christ, that everyone may receive the proper things of the body, according as he hath done, whether it be good or evil." [94] Again: "Behold now is the acceptable time, behold now is the day of salvation." [95] Again: "Therefore, whilst we have time, let us work good to all men." [96] And again: "I have a desire to be dissolved and to be with Christ, a thing by far the better." [97] In the Epistle to the Hebrews: "Exhort one another every day whilst it is called today: that none of you be hardened." [98] And again: "It is appointed unto men once to die, and after this the judgment." [99] The following verse makes allusion to the last judgment, but this last judgment also deals exclusively with the acts of the present life.
In the Gospel of St. John, Jesus says: "I must work the work of Him that sent Me whilst it is day; the night cometh, when no man can work." [100] The Fathers [101] have often explained this text of St. John in this sense, particularly Saints Cyprian, Hilary, John Chrysostom, Cyril of Alexandria, Augustine, and Gregory the Great. These Fathers teach that after death no one can longer either merit or demerit.
This, too, is manifestly the doctrine of
the ordinary universal magistracy of the Church.
Although there is no solemn definition on this point,
there are declarations of the Church which are to be
understood in this sense. The Second Council of Lyons
says: "The souls of those who die in the state of
mortal sin or with original sin go down at once into
hell, there to suffer, though not all with equal
pains." [102] We find the same expression in the
Council of Florence, [103] and in the Constitution
Benedictus Deus of Benedict XII. [104] Leo X [105]
condemns this proposition of Luther: "The souls in
purgatory are not certain of their salvation, at
least not all of them, and it cannot be proved by
Scripture nor by theological reasoning that they can
no longer merit or that they cannot increase in
charity." Lastly the Council of the Vatican proposed
to promulgate this dogmatic
