Blogger must have upgraded their captchas or something. Now every time I want to comment on a blog I have to try two times to get the damn words through. I hate it.
It's very ironic that these days when captchas don't stop computers any more (the spam software is "good" enough these days), it does stop humans from communicating.

Pregnant mom faces felonies in meth case (+Arrest Affidavit)
A pregnant woman remained in custody Wednesday after being arrested for allegedly driving with her 2-year-old daughter while under the influence of methamphetamine.
Lisa Marie Buchanan, 31, of Monett, Mo., was being held on a $32,500 bond for three third-degree felonies, including possession of a controlled substance, endangering a child and driving while intoxicated with a minor under the age of 15 present.
Scott Alan Buchanan, her husband, also was arrested and remained in custody on a $17,500 bond for two third-degree felonies of possession of a controlled substance and endangering a child.
A Texas Department of Public Safety trooper conducted a traffic stop on Interstate 20 near mile marker 314 Saturday about 10 p.m. for a defective license plate light. While attempting to stop the vehicle, police said the driver, later identified as Lisa Buchanan, tried to stop on the roadway before driving into the median and back onto the roadway again. The trooper said he was forced to position his vehicle in between Buchanan's silver 2003 Chevrolet and oncoming traffic. As a result, the trooper's cruiser was struck, according to Buchanan's arrest report.
When the trooper approached Buchanan, he said he could "smell (an) extremely strong odor of burnt methamphetamine." She also was disoriented and confused, the trooper wrote in his report.
A search of the vehicle led to the discovery of two plastic bags containing methamphetamine, several used syringes and a glass meth pipe.
"Buchanan also had her 2-year-old daughter inside the vehicle who had been exposed to the methamphetamine smoke while her parents had been smoking methamphetamine," the report continued.
Buchanan, who also is pregnant, started to have contractions during the search and subsequent arrest, police said.
Buchanan was transported to Midland Memorial Hospital for a medical interview, but the woman refused to answer any questions without her attorney present.
The Reporter-Telegram was not able to learn what specifically happened to the 2-year-old child after her parents' arrest or what would become of the unborn child Buchanan is carrying.
But Marleigh Meisner, spokeswoman for the Department of Family and Protective Services, said in any case like this, an investigation would be opened immediately.
She said she couldn't comment about the specifics of any case, but generally speaking the caseworker would review the family history, nature of the problem, analyze what drugs were used and look into criminal history, among many other things. She added that the department can then petition to the judge to follow one of several different courses, with the most extreme being separation between children and parents. As for an unborn child, a judge could order the child to be separated from the mother post-birth.
Regardless of what happens to the couple's children, both remain in custody and face multiple felonies. If convicted, each third-degree felony carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison.

Medical questions & health advice by board certified doctors
"Is a miscarriage a sign something is wrong with me?"
I am 22 and had a miscarriage. Is there something wrong with my reproductive system?
There are many conditions that can cause with miscarriages. Blood clotting disorders in the mother can cause miscarriages, structural problems with the mother's uterus can keep the fetus from being able to grow and stay attached, medications (or drugs) the mother has been taking or may have been taking before she got pregnant are all possibilities. Generally, though, miscarriages are common and are often idiopathic (no reason), and a SINGLE miscarriage is not so worrisome as to prompt a very aggressive search for many of the above problems. So most likely there is nothing wrong with your reproductive system. The best thing to do is to get an appointment with an obstetrician BEFORE you try to conceive again to review your health, medications, gynecologic history, and help to optimize your chances for reproductive success. If you have a second miscarriage, then your obstetrician may decide to pursue a further evaluation that will include imaging of your uterus, blood tests of your hormone levels, possibly some genetic tests. Hopefully this will not be the case, but, if so, there are treatments for of these conditions.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. -- The Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology football team has been ranked No. 23 nationally and senior Alec Thompson has been named in a preseason All-American in Street & Smith's 2017 College Football Preview, available on newsstands nationwide.
Rose-Hulman was ranked No. 23 in the publication's preseason Top 25 poll after reaching the NCAA Division III Playoffs for the first time in program history last season. The Fightin' Engineers finished 8-3 overall and won a Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference championship last fall. The Fightin' Engineers shared the league title with Franklin College, but earned a trip to the NCAA Playoffs with its 23-22 win over the Grizzlies last October.
Thompson was named as one of four defensive backs on the Street & Smith's Division III All-America Team after a stellar 2016 season. He is a two-time D3football.com All-North Region selection and has twice earned first-team all-HCAC honors. The standout also earned CoSIDA Academic All-District honors as a junior in 2016. His career totals include 80 tackles, 8 interceptions and 15 pass breakups.
The 2017 Rose-Hulman football team should be another veteran crew with high expectations. Rose-Hulman is projected to return five offensive, seven defensive starters and the HCAC Special Teams Player of the Year from the 2016 squad. The team ranked among the HCAC leaders in total offense (404.8 ypg) and scoring offense (32.2 ppg), while leading the conference in scoring defense (18.9 ppg), sacks (38) and defensive touchdowns (4).
Reigning HCAC Coach of the Year Jeff Sokol returns an experienced crew featuring eight returning all-conference players. Projected returnees who earned all-league honors last year include defensive back Tyler Brutofsky; running back Stanley Hogan; tight end Michael Iacono; linebacker Kaelen Garner; linebacker Mike Henry; Thompson; offensive lineman Parker Young; and Special Teams Player of the Year Matt Murray.
The No. 23 national ranking marks the first time Rose-Hulman has appeared in an NCAA Division III Top 25 poll since 1988.
The 2017 season begins with a road game Sept. 2 at Illinois College, followed by a three-game September homestand against Millikin, Hanover and Defiance. Other home games include a Homecoming matchup with Mount St. Joseph on Oct. 7, and a Senior Day contest against Franklin on Oct. 21.

SKYTRAX also scored EVA as the Best Airline Transpacific and, based on traveler feedback, as the world's third Most Loved Airline.
AirlineRatings counted EVA Air's Economy Class and Elite premium economy both among the top-10 best-of-the-best worldwide for 2017.

I had this fried rice recipe for a long while but wasn't able to prepare it as I couldn't find a small portion of Garam Masala that is needed to fry the rice.
Finally, bought a small portion from Mydin Store and here it is the Indian Fried Rice cooked to savour over the weekend. It is a very tasty fried rice, aromatic but not too spicy. I believe, the combination of ingredients can be according to own preference as the seasoning used is just salt, msg and pepper.
I wouldn't mind having the fried rice again as it is really nice. Do give this a try if you love Fried Rice.
3-4 cups cooked cooled rice
3-4 tbsp cooking oil
1 tbsp each chopped ginger and garlic
3 long beans – diced
1 /2 red carrot – diced
50 gm prawns – diced
50 gm chicken fillet – diced
½ tsp garam masala
2 tbsp chilli powder
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp each msg and pepper
- Heat oil in a non-stick wok, sauté chopped ginger/garlic until aromatic. Add in prawns and chicken, fry until cooked and add in garam masala and chilli powder. Stir to mix well.
- Add in green beans and carrots. Stir to mix.
- Put in rice and toss well to combine, followed by seasoning over low heat.
- Toss and stir well all the ingredients until heated through.
- Dish up to serve immediately with some sliced zucchini.

"People go to college for education, but they also need jobs, so it's important college students know what's hot and what's not before they select their major."
Oklahoma City, OK (PRWEB) August 22, 2013
In the sixth of a series of releases titled "America Employed," Express Employment Professionals, the nation's largest privately held staffing firm, released findings today that reveal which college majors make a graduate most employable.
A survey of 264 Express franchises across the nation suggests that a business degree gives someone the best chance of landing a job. Engineering, accounting, and computer and information sciences round out the top four.
Liberal arts, math and statistics, science technologies, communications technologies and education ranked at the bottom of the list.
"People go to college for education, but they also need jobs, so it's important college students know what's hot and what's not before they select their major," said Bob Funk, CEO of Express Employment Professionals, and a former chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.
"If you have a business or engineering degree, you're going to be in demand. That's not to say other degrees aren't valuable, but today's economic reality is that a liberal arts degree, while edifying, probably isn't going to make you the most competitive or widely marketable job candidate," Funk said.
Respondents were asked to select which major "makes someone the most employable." The responses were as follows.
1) Business 26%
2) Engineering 16%
3) Accounting 14%
4) Computer and Information Sciences 13%
5) Health Professions and Related Clinical Sciences 8%
6) Engineering Technologies 3%
7) Finance 3%
8) Marketing 3%
9) Nursing 3%
10) Liberal Arts and Sciences, General Studies and Humanities 2%
11) Communications Technologies 1%
12) Education 1%
13) Math and Statistics 1%
14) Science Technologies 1%

... I've been absent from the So Domesticated blog... and I apologize! I have been so unbelievably busy the past month or so, that I've barley had time for my family!
I love volunteering at the elementary school that my youngest daughter attends, but sometimes I can take on too much. We had a fundraiser recently, which took up a lot of my time.
Now I'm able to take a bit of a break, before the madness of upcoming birthdays and our planned vacation to California this summer.
I've been wanting to make a panini recipe for sometime now, and well, finally followed through with it!
I love the freshness of basil and mozzarella. So that was my starting point. I found some fabulous torta sandwich rolls at Costco and decided to you use those as my bread. I also wanted some crunch. The answer to that: crispy pancetta... yum!
All the flavors worked very well together, but don't take my word for it... try it for yourself...
Margherita Panini with Pancetta
- 1 Torta Sandwich Roll
- 5 Slices Pancetta
- 4 Slices Fresh Mozzarella
- 5 Slices Roma Tomatoes
- Salt and Pepper, To Taste
- 4 Large Fresh Basil Leaves
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees (F). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
Heat a griddle with grilling ridges on medium/low heat. Slice the torta roll in half, lengthwise, so it has a top and bottom to make a sandwich; set aside.
Once the oven is preheated, place the pancetta on the lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the pancetta is the desired crispness. Remove to a plate lined with paper towels to remove any excess drippings.
To assemble the panini:
On the bottom piece of the torta roll, add two slices of the mozzarella, then the tomato slices. Season the tomatoes with a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper. Add the fresh basil, then the pancetta slices. Finally, add the last two slices of mozzarella and place the top of the torta roll to cover.
Brush some olive oil on the heated griddle. Place the sandwich on the griddle. Cover and press the sandwich down with a very heavy pan, such as a cast iron skillet or the lid of a Dutch oven. Flatten the sandwich to your liking and grill until nice marks are prevalent and the mozzarella cheese is melted. Flip the sandwich and repeat the process.
Slice in half and serve with fries. Makes one serving.

Shadowgrounds Reviews
Shadowgrounds Review
Blood is so hard to get off iron gratings.
Member reviews Add review
The premise of Shadowgrounds ought to be eerily familiar to fans of the Doom franchise. You're a lowly mechanic on a space base parked on one of Jupiter's moons. One day, all hell breaks loose when a crew of creepy alien creatures shows up on the scene and starts wreaking havoc. Amid many moments of verbally wondering what the hell is going on, you're forced into battle, shooting your way through the scads and scads of nasty aliens. The game tries to inject some story into the whole equation by having you interact with other survivors on the base and even by out-and-out thieving the whole thing from Doom 3 where you'd walk around, reading people's computer screens and PDA's to piece together a picture of how this all came about. Unfortunately, none of it is interesting. The dialogue is generally pretty stilted, and the snippets of story just aren't all that intriguing.

A generation of British children grew up with Knightmare, the pioneering TV show inspired by roleplaying games that mixed live contestants with computer-generated dungeons. Now it's returning in a one-off episode filmed for YouTube.
The revived Knightmare will be one of the British highlights of YouTube's Geek Week on 4-10 August, which will celebrate science fiction, comics, gaming and science.
The episode has been produced by the show's creator Tim Child, and will feature comedian Isy Suttie (Peep Show) and actor Jessie Cave (Harry Potter) alongside the original show's dungeon master character Treguard.
They'll be joined by four British YouTube stars, Dan Howell, Phil Lester, Emma Blackery and Stuart Ashen, as the video service aims to showcase and cross-promote some of the British talent that's finding a thriving online audience through their channels.
More than 100 YouTube creators will be publishing themed videos for Geek Week, which is being executive-produced by multi-channel network ChannelFlip.
Content will include a celebration of Doctor Who and various superheroes; a day focusing on science and education channels; and a live broadcast from the YouTube Space in London of popular games YouTubers trying to break a selection of Guinness World Records.
Celebrities including Jamie Oliver, Rachel Riley and Brian Blessed have contributed video playlists, while another veteran TV character – Kryten from Red Dwarf – will act as a daily host pointing viewers to new videos.
"With more than half of our top 20 non-music channels dedicated to geek culture, YouTube has become a top destination for fans everywhere to create, share and watch geek content," says Danielle Tiedt, vice president of marketing for YouTube.
"We're excited to shine a spotlight on this global community during Geek Week and debut all-new videos and series created by some of our most popular channel partners."
A glance at the stats for some of the British YouTubers starring in the new Knightmare episode shows the reach that technology, science and "geek culture" is getting on YouTube.
Howell's danisnotonfire channel has just under 2m subscribers and 114.1m video views so far, while Lester's AmazingPhil channel has 1.1m subscribers and 70m views. Both joined YouTube in 2006.
Musician Blackery has 289k subscribers and 11.2m views for her channel, while Ashen's "Comedy, Technology, Idiocy" videos have attracted 368k subscribers and 77.2m total views.
Globally, channels that could fall under the Geek Week banner are hugely popular too.
Industry site Tubefilter's monthly top 100 YouTube channels chart is currently topped by Swedish gamer PewDiePie with his 10.8m subscribers and 2.1bn total views – 208.4m of which came in June 2013 alone.
Fellow games-focused channel Sky Does Minecraft (4.7m subscribers and 967.8m views) and games / sci-fi channel Rooster Teeth (5.6m subscribers and 2.3bn views) are also among the most popular YouTube channels.
Meanwhile, Machinima, which started as a channel for gaming videos, but has since diversified into a multi-channel network covering entertainment, sports and comedy, claims an audience of more than 190m people who watched more than 2.1bn videos in May 2013.

Tim O'Connor was a student who attended Degrassi Junior High School from September 1986 to June 1989 and later on Degrassi High School from September 1989 to June 1991. He appeared in the original Degrassi series as an occasional character. He was a well-behaved, pleasant character who "wouldn't hurt a fly." He often wore tie-dye and hippie clothes. He was best friends with Nancy Kramer and had a crush on Liz O'Rourke for several years but they only went out on one date. He was also friends with Archie Simpson and Joey Jeremiah. He was portrayed by Keith White.
Season 1
Tim was first seen in grade 8 at Degrassi Junior High.
In The Cover-Up, he was asked by Joey Jeremiah what to do if he knew someone who was being beaten up by his dad all the time. Tim wanted to know who Joey meant, but at first Joey said it was just a question. Later on he was sure that Joey was referring to Rick Munro who always seemed to be miserable and scratched and bruised, and that he was not just asking him that as a random question.
In Bottled Up he along with Caitlin Ryan, Susie Rivera, Nancy Kramer and Kathleen Mead were the five students picked to be contestants representing Degrassi Junior High on the educational game show Quest for the Best going up against five contestants from Liberman Junior High School. he was one of the people who kept being rudely interrupted by Kathleen. He later went along with his teammates to Kathleen's house because only she had a VCR to watch a VHS recording of the weeks previous show to get to know the opponents that they would be facing, he then found out that Kathleen's mother was a serious alcoholic. Later on he took part in the show and his team won.
In the episode Censored He was seen working at a typewriter for the Degrassi Digest and he was happy and smiled when Nancy told him she really liked his article he had written about Their school taking part and winning at the Quest for the best educational game show. Then his smiled faded and he felt disappointed when Nancy told him it was about 50 words too short and couldn't be used.
Season 3In Taking Off (1), Tim goes to the Gourmet Scum concert with Shane McKay and Luke Matthews. When Luke offers Shane acid (LSD), Tim tells him he shouldn't because there is rat poison in acid. Shane takes it anyway.
In Taking Off (2), Tim and Nancy Kramer start a collection to take flowers to Shane in the hospital. Luke then asks him to give Shane a get well card for him. But Tim is very upset about what happened to Shane and very mad at Luke and then he snaps at him that he should take the card to him because he should have stayed with and that he knew it was his first time. Also Tim warned them not to take it but they still didn't listen.
In Making Whoopee, Luke finds out Tim went to the hospital to visit Shane, so he asks Tim to bring Shane a card on his behalf, who declines, and tells him to bring it to Shane himself. Luke walks off after Tim says it's his fault, because he's convinced Shane into taking the acid, he drops the card on the floor, and Tim picks it up.
Season 4
Tim O'Connor came to Degrassi High School in September 1989.
In A New Start, he was seen to be constantly complimenting and teasing Simon Dexter about his modeling success as "The Dude," indicating that he may have been a little jealous of Simon's talent and modeling success and also all the attention that Simon was currently getting from the girls.
In Sixteen, he was one of the many people who participated in the get well video that Lucy Fernandez made to help cheer up L.D. Delacorte who was going for leukemia treatment. He made his debut as "Tim the Terrific" with his assistant Bartholomew Bond. He then did a silly magic trick that made it look like both his hands each only had one pointer finger but when he bumped them together suddenly poof his right hand suddenly had two fingers now. He called the trick the magical phenomenon of the moving finger. Later on he was seen hanging out with his friend Nancy Kramer and she was giving him a ride, and they were celebrating her getting her driver's license and her parents buying her, her own car.
In It Creeps!!, Tim and Heather Farrell want to help Lucy Fernandez film her movie they recruit Alexa to be script supervisor and recruit their other friends to act in the movie. Tim's uncle owns a restaurant, so he volunteers to be in charge of the fake blood made from ketchup. When they get the go-ahead to make the movie, Tim helps Lucy behind the scenes.
In Stressed Out, he and his classmates faced the stress and pressure of the end of the year final exams. He was later seen in the library studying Geography with his friend Nancy.
Season 5In Crossed Wires, Tim asks Liz O'Rourke out to The Pogues concert. She rejects him at first, but then later she tells him she changed her mind and would like to go. After the concert, he tries to give her a good night kiss, but it triggers her repressed memories of sexual abuse and she runs into the house screaming. Tim tries to apologize the next day, but Liz blows him off. He asks Spike what he did wrong, and Spike agrees that Liz has been acting odd lately. After Liz and Spike talk, Liz apologizes for overreacting and tells him she still wants to be friends.
In Showtime, part 1 he and Bartholomew decided to do another magic act for the school's talent show. During their audition he already impressed the audience by doing a magic trick that made a piece of white rope turn into a red silk cloth. Then with the red silk cloth he did a trick which made a little bouquet of white flowers appear which he gave to Caitlin. Later in the afternoon he was seen in class in shock and upset when his teacher and Mr. Raditch informed him and his class that Claude had committed suicide. Later that afternoon all classes for the day were cancelled and as he was going home Joey asked him if he has seen Snake anywhere he told him Not since before lunch time. Completely unaware at the time that Snake was the one to find Claude dead in the washroom. Also he was asking his friend if their class should take up a collection to get flowers for Claude's parents.
In the episode One Last Dance he and Liz were seen dancing together whether he took her to the dance as his date or just begun to dance with her after going by himself and seeing her there was not explained.
- Tim O'Connor was the first Tim in the Degrassi Franchise. The second was Tim, Marco Del Rossi's ex-boyfriend.
- In Crossed Wires, Christine Nelson told Liz O'Rourke that she had known him since Grade 6 and that he was "very sweet."
- He was a big fan of the Pogues.
- In School's Out!, he attended Alexa Pappadopolos and Simon Dexter's wedding on October 19, 1992.
- In the first season of Degrassi Junior High, Tim was often seen hanging out with Joey.

... and keep the change
It was, Gayle Kilburn remembers, an uncomfortable moment. She had just pulled into New Britain Citgo, a gas station in Plainville, Conn., to fill up one day last week, and two identically dressed men were approaching her car, their eyes hidden behind sunglasses. Clearly, there was going to be an encounter; there was no avoiding that. But of what sort would it be? Brief, as it turned out. Through the open window of her Chevrolet, the strangers handed her a card and a bill. They didn't speak and left immediately. On the card were the words, "Re-fueling Our Community. The Gas Men." On the bill was the number $100. And it wasn't Monopoly money either.
By the time she went inside to pay and returned to her car, The Gas Men were gone. But they'd also handed out bills to a half dozen other customers, each of whom presumably was as taken aback by the experience as she. All any of them knows is that the guys were wearing khaki pants, green golf shirts, and baseball caps. Published accounts don't say how much of the cash Gayle used in refueling, but even if the needle on the gauge was down to empty and she pumped superpremium fuel, there must have been some left for the next fill-up. No word, either, on The Gas Men appearing at any other Plainville station. Or whether they'll be showing up in your town next.

The Illinois Senate had already passed gay marriage legislation, the governor promised to sign it, but the House fell short in what was expected to be a victory today, but now has turned into defeat.
The Sun Times says the state House black caucus was a big part of the problem.
A similar scenario played out with Prop 8 in California four years ago (though some have tried to rewrite that history). Yet, the black vote was not a problem in Maryland where the state voted in favor of marriage equality last November. And with the support of President Obama, I'm sure a lot of people had hoped that we were beyond worrying about the religious right's declared desire to drive fissures between the black and the gay community.
UPDATE: Geoffrey R. Stone, a University of Chicago law professor who clerked for Supreme Court Justice Brennan confirms that it was the Black Caucus:
By all accounts, a major reason for the disappointing outcome in the House was the opposition/hesitancy/anxiety of the House Black Caucus, which includes 20 African-American Democrats. Given the political makeup of the Illinois House, the House Black Caucus clearly had the numbers to dictate the outcome. And on Friday, the members of the House Black Caucus chose to derail the effort to legalize marriage for same-sex couples in Illinois…
The usual liberalism of the House Black Caucus apparently does not extend to protecting the equality rights of gays and lesbians. That they pulled the plug on same-sex marriage in Illinois is therefore both disappointing and perplexing….
It is especially distressing that these African-American ministers would act in such clear disregard of the fundamental American principle of separation of church and state. "My God forbids this" was precisely the argument that white supremacists used to defend slavery, Jim Crow and especially anti-miscegenation laws that forbade blacks and whites to marry.
When white segregationists intoned that "God forbids the marriage of whites and blacks," civil rights leaders — including African-American minister — courageously stood up for the right of individuals to marry whomever they loved — regardless of what others thought their God decreed. It is therefore particularly disheartening to see African-American ministers, who were once so eloquent in defending their own right to marry in the face of religious bigotry, now raising their voices so emphatically in order to deny that very same right to others.
From the Sun Times:
Harris and other supporters of same-sex marriage have had 105 days to amass the necessary 60 House votes to get the measure to Quinn's desk since the Illinois Senate's Valentine's Day vote in support of the bill.
But that 60-vote threshold has been illusory despite high-profile encouragement from former President Bill Clinton and Obama, during his appearance in Chicago this week.
Stubborn resistance within the House Black Caucus, a 20-member bloc of African-American lawmakers who have faced a withering lobbying blitz against the plan from black ministers, has helped keep Harris' legislation in check, with several House members still undecided.
"For me, there's really no net gain for me one way or another. I'm hearing equally. Do I philosophically disagree? No, I don't. But I would like to see absolute protections for churches and religious organizations so they're not pushed into something they don't want," said Rep. Will Davis (D-Homewood). "For me, [a decision] will literally be when the bill comes up and after I sit and listen."
Several in the caucus have urged Harris to push the issue into the fall veto session — after which nominating petitions for the 2014 ballot have to be filed — to bring up same-sex marriage for a House vote.
"The sense I have is blacks are tired of being lobbied or targeted. They've kind of turned back on some of the advocates and lobbyists and are asking, 'Why don't you get some Republicans?'" one high-level Democratic insider said Friday.
A further update – judging by some of the comments below, I thought this might be a good time to remind people of the words of Coretta Scott King, Martin Luther King's widow:
Make Room At The Table for Lesbian and Gay People
Coretta Scott King, speaking four days before the 30th anniversary of her husband's assassination, said Tuesday the civil rights leader's memory demanded a strong stand for gay and lesbian rights. "I still hear people say that I should not be talking about the rights of lesbian and gay people and I should stick to the issue of racial justice," she said. "But I hasten to remind them that Martin Luther King Jr. said, 'Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.'" "I appeal to everyone who believes in Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream to make room at the table of brother- and sisterhood for lesbian and gay people," she said. – Reuters, March 31, 1998.
Homophobia is Like Racism and Anti-Semitism
Speaking before nearly 600 people at the Palmer House Hilton Hotel, Coretta Scott King, the wife of the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Tuesday called on the civil rights community to join in the struggle against homophobia and anti-gay bias. "Homophobia is like racism and anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry in that it seeks to dehumanize a large group of people, to deny their humanity, their dignity and personhood," King stated. "This sets the stage for further repression and violence that spread all too easily to victimize the next minority group." – Chicago Defender, April 1, 1998, front page.
We have to launch a campaign against homophobia
"We have to launch a national campaign against homophobia in the black community," said Coretta Scott King, widow of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., the slain civil rights leader. – Reuters, June 8, 2001.
More on Friday's loss in Illinois, from Freedom to Marry:
Springfield, Ill. – Today the Illinois House of Representatives failed to vote on the Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act, which would have affirmed the freedom to marry for all same-sex couples in the state. The bill passed the state Senate in February, and Governor Pat Quinn, a strong supporter, had vowed to sign it into law.
Marc Solomon, Freedom to Marry's national campaign director, released the following statement:
"After an overwhelming victory in the Senate, today's failure by the Illinois House is a disgrace, especially for the thousands of committed same-sex couples who want and deserve to make the ultimate vow before their friends and family and spend the rest of their lives with the person they love, protected and supported by their marriage. Freedom to Marry is proud to be an active partner in Illinois Unites for Marriage, and is grateful for the groups that led the effort on the ground — the ACLU, Equality Illinois, and Lambda Legal. We also deeply appreciate the leadership of lead bill sponsors in the House and Senate, Rep. Greg Harris and Sen. Heather Steans. Make no mistake, we will fight and make our case until all Illinois families have the freedom to marry the person they love and until the legislative vote reflects the solid majority of Illinoisans and Americans who stand for treating their neighbors the way they want to be treated."
Lambda Legal:
Illinois House of Representatives Fails to Vote On Marriage Bill
"This is a stunning failure in the Illinois House. Lambda Legal's lawsuit
will move forward…"
(Springfield, IL, May 31, 2013) — At the close of the legislative session the Illinois House of Representatives did not call for a floor vote or advance The Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act, the bill that would grant same-sex couples in Illinois the freedom to marry. Lambda Legal issued the following statement from Jim Bennett, Director of the Midwest Regional Office of Lambda Legal:
"This is a stunning failure in the Illinois House. This is too important to families across Illinois, and Lambda Legal's lawsuit, Darby v. Orr which was filed a year ago yesterday will move forward. The day is coming when Illinois will have the freedom to marry. Lambda Legal has been working in the Midwest for the respect of our relationships for 20 years and we won't stop until same-sex couples in Illinois are treated with dignity and respect.
"We'd like to thank Sen. Steans for passing this bill in the Senate. We thank Rep. Harris, Rep. Cassidy and Rep. Mell, who have worked so hard to see this through. However, it's unacceptable that our community did not at least get the vote Rep. Harris promised on the House floor. We have a right to know where our elected officials stand on the fundamental right to marry the person you love. We will continue to work with them to push toward passing this critical law as soon as possible."
The momentum for the freedom to marry has been steadily building; in the past six months, Washington, Maine, Minnesota, Delaware and Rhode Island have joined 9 other jurisdictions in granting same-sex couples the freedom to marry (Connecticut, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Washington D.C.) President Obama and President Clinton have endorsed marriage for same-sex couples, and in Illinois Governor Pat Quinn and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel have publicly supported marriage for lesbian and gay couples.

- Oxygen by Andrew Miller
Sceptre, 323 pp, £14.99, September 2001, ISBN 0 340 72825 6
Flamboyant historical staging characterised Andrew Miller's first two novels, Ingenious Pain and Casanova: his third makes use of a very different kind of theatricality. Here, in two discrete, barely overlapping stories – one of a dying woman attended by her sons, the other of an exiled Hungarian playwright tempted by a shameful memory into a last-ditch act of political redemption – the stage directions are slow and deliberate, the settings minimal and swiftly sketched. Every action carries a purposeful weight that leaves no room for chaotic exuberance.

"To the Rescue" from Edcon Publishing.
Something you will read about: hospice, a place, often maintained by monks, where travelers can stop and rest. Alpine dogs helped many travelers reach safety.
Barry was a rescue dog at the Saint Bernard Hospice long ago. The hospice stood on a lonely peak in the Alps near the only passage between Italy and Switzerland. Travelers climbing this cold, icy path faced many dangers. Without warning, sudden storms would start, and a whole mountainside would thunder down in a rush of ice and rock. Instantly, snow would hide the path. Travelers could become lost and the victims of hungry wolves.
hospice where they were welcomed with a roaring fire, hot food, and warm beds.
People were fortunate to find help on their journeys. Before the hospice had been built, there was no help for travelers. Savage men, who hid in caves, robbed and beat strangers roaming the mountain passes.
The pass was the only road to a valley where peasants found work. When returning to their homes, many met with misfortune. Protecting poor people was the responsibility of a nearby church. Injured people, who had been robbed and escaped to return home, were helped by kindly monks.
One day a monk from the church went into the mountains to help poor, lost wanderers. He persuaded the people who lived there to let him build a shelter where travelers could rest in safety. His love for helpless people caused him to exert all his efforts to this work for the rest of his life. When he died, he was remembered as Saint Bernard of Menthon.
Saint Bernard did not do all this work alone. Other monks went up the mountain to help, and they took guard dogs as protection from wolves. They did not know that the dogs would become famous for rescue work. The monks learned that their dogs could always find a way back to the shelter during dense fogs and blizzards. In snowstorms, even strong, mature travelers often lost the way and were led to safety by the dogs.
Sometimes, the dogs would stop suddenly on the trail and shift to a different path. The dogs could feel the earth vibrate through the deep snow. They knew that rocks and ice would come crashing down the mountain.
It was during his famous crossing of the Alps with forty thousand soldiers. The soldiers were exhausted from their climb up the mountain. They had worn out many pairs of shoes in their struggle over the rugged rock and ice. Ten men, pulling a heavy cannon, had a misfortune. They fell into a deep ravine hidden by fallen snow. Dogs from the hospice found them and led them to safety and a warm supper.
In that same year, Barry was born. He became the most famous of all rescue dogs. During his twelve years of work at the hospice, Barry saved forty lives - perhaps more. His greatest accomplishment makes an amazing story. It happened when Barry was a trained, mature dog. He had been helping the monks rescue a traveling party. As they returned to the hospice, Barry suddenly turned away. The monks called to him, but Barry would not return and the others had to continue without him.
Barry was an old dog when he died. According to legend, it was the evening of a furious storm. Slumbering on the floor, Barry felt the mountain vibrate. He barked as a warning of danger and paced the floor. The kind monks did not want to let the brave old dog out in the blinding snow, but Barry insisted and they opened the door. Barry raced into the icy night to find a soldier buried under snow. When Barry licked his frozen face, the soldier awoke and, thinking Barry a wolf, drove his sword through the brave animal. The wounded Barry returned to the shelter for help, leaving a trail of blood. The monks followed his trail, and the soldier was rescued.
To honor his great deeds, money was collected for a statue of Barry carrying a small child on his back. His body was preserved and is still in a museum in Switzerland.
These gentle dogs of mercy are called Saint Bernards in honor of the founder of the hospice. In two hundred fifty years, they rescued more than two thousand people. And always, at the Saint Bernard Hospice, one dog is named Barry in memory of the most famous of them all.

Nonduality Highlights - http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NDhighlights
In this issue I try to convey the fun and self-consciousness -- and seriousness -- of the book God Is An Atheist, by N. Nosirrah. Wildly different than other books in the nonduality genre, it is as valid as any others when it comes to communicating what these books need to communicate.
God Is An Atheist, by N. Nosirrah is featured.
Nosirrah is a fresh voice upon the nonduality landscape. His website is at http://nosirrahisnot.com, where you may access excerpts from the book as well as lots of other information about this guy.
On his website it is written, "His work is noteworthy in the extraordinary way that his writing reveals meaning within meaning as the cultural, literary, religious and philosophical references, symbols and characters are understood."
I like how he brings together Mickey Mouse, Mother Theresa, the Segway, Ken Wilber, Costco, the Got Milk? commercial, Tommy Lee Jones, and Einstein into a complete work. (At least I think he does. In any case, I know for a fact that there are nondualists at work behind each of those topics, except Ken Wilber and Costco.)
God Is An Atheist may be ordered from the publisher: http://www.sentientpublications.com/catalog/atheist.php
Also you may order from Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/God-Atheist-Novella-Those-Have/dp/1591810728/ref=pd_bbs_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1216910449&sr=1-1 Here is a review of the book, God Is An Atheist that I wrote. I've inserted annotations in italics and between brackets [ ].
Review of "God Is An Atheist" [with notes]
This book is a gavotte of literary styles and daydreams. It compels you to become a partner and leads you to an understanding of God that is beyond belief.
[Gavotte? At the time of writing this
review I had been listening to You're So Vain, by Carly
Simon and discovered the word in the line, "You had one eye
in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte." Listen: http://youtube.com/watch?v=7B7bVD_DkM4&feature=related]
One moment the writing reminds me of the wild-eyed Richard Beymer caught in the fantastic world knot of "contrived identity" in his psychological confession, Impostor.
[Imposter was reviewed in the
Highlights here: http://www.nonduality.com/hl3048.htm]
Next moment a sensible philosophical warrior steps up.
That dynamic between the wild-eyed and the sensible, the wearing of one joker's shoe and one wingtip, drives the story.
[The website http://nosirrahisnot.com takes the book to a freakier place.]
The foam of humor spills over the edges and down the sides.
[I was opening my
sixth can of beer when I wrote that.]
In parts the author is freely catching images:
"I had a dream last night (I think it was a dream in any case) and in it I was reading the TMZ.com website where there was an account of Richard Dawkins and the Pope as secret lovers revealed, with photos of the two grinning in bed with their morning cappuccino, apparently listening to Puccini."
Then there are stories. One of my favorites is the one about Eddie Buddha, the cousin of Gautama Buddha. Eddie was never remembered because he did not leave his wife and kid and renounce the world. He hung around. He went to delis at night with his best buddy. The following paragraph I found warm to the touch. This might reveal something about the writer:
"I wanted a life like Eddie Buddha's that was clear, straightforward, regular and unfettered by the dogma of belief. I wanted a life that was compelling, which is an interesting word, meaning undeniable, gripping, but I wanted it compelled by truth. Compelling is the force exerted from the future into the past as organized by our mind. There is nothing compelling other than what you actually express, nothing before, nothing after."
You'll recognize much of your own foolishness or confabulations, hopefully with humor and peace. Listen:
"There remains this nagging question about the universe as it is, which is something like: 'Why?' In the immortal words of the blues queen Jenn Cleary, 'Why, oh why, can't there be peace in our world?'
"Why is there suffering? Why old age? Why pain? Why Barry Manilow? Why is it set up like this? I turned to God for an answer.
"God would have none of it. He was hustling me towards a Quick Stop where He was intent on acquiring some Slim Jim Beef Jerky."
Reading God Is An Atheist might put an end to the endless chewing on beef jerky and bring the reader face to face with Eddie Buddha's unfettered life, or God's "none of it."
This is a work of true madness and mad truth. [Holy jumpin' Bernadette Roberts, there's a sound bite if I ever wrote one.]

A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to meet with Darren Beatson, Senior Co-ordinator (Records and Archives) at the National Trust.
He gave me a huge amount of archive material related to Ferguson's Gang, mainly photos of every page of 'the boo's' – the gang's notebooks- containing receipts for donations they gave to the National Trust, blow by blow breakdowns of gang rituals, reports of each stunt they undertook and press cuttings of the stunts, which give a brilliant selection of perspectives on each event.
We get a real insight into the playfulness of the gang. The code language used and the world they were playing in.
We'll be using the boo's as source material for making the show next week, but I thought I'd share a little here.

Yearbook superlatives have long been a high school tradition for seniors. Most Likely to Succeed. Most School Spirit. Best Smile. While the categories have barely changed (maybe there's a Funniest Tweets now), the honorees certainly have. Recently a gay couple was awarded Best Couple. It was the first time in their school's history that a same sex couple was even considered for it.
It's pretty amazing. Lots of things have changed when it comes to gay rights. Most notable is the fact they finally have the right to wed -- in some states. Though despite some great strides, there are still so many close-minded people in this world. Gay students face so much discrimination, especially in high school. So it's wonderful to see the student body be so open and accepting of Brad Taylor and Dylan Meehan by voting for them.
An adorable photo of the pair was printed in the yearbook of them standing close, smiling, and looking genuinely happy. The world found out about the honor after a friend of theirs posted it to her Tumblr blog, and within one day, it had been shared 100,000 times. All the attention has been a bit of a shock to the couple, as they described in an email to The Huffington Post:
This whole thing has been a bit surreal for us because we have been raised to believe that love is love. We never realized that our happiness and openness would inspire so many individuals. The support we have received from our family, friends, and even strangers has led us to believe that our affection for each other is normal ... When we started dating a year [ago], the thought of a photo of us traveling throughout the world would be a bit frightening, but now we are proud to be part of the LGBT community.
Such a sweet and wonderful thing to happen. It can be hard for teens to be comfortable with who they are -- especially when that opens them up to ridicule and cruelty. So Brad and Dylan's bravery, as well as their peers' accepting nature, is something we should all admire. It not only has an impact on their lives, but those of so many others. It does us all proud, don't you think?
What do you think about a gay couple winning Best Couple?

Currently, the approach most widely used to examine bone loss is the measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) using dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). However, bone loss due to immobilization creates changes in bone microarchitecture, which in turn are related to changes in bone mechanical function and competence to resist fracture. Unfortunately, the relationship between microarchitecture and mechanical function within the framework of immobilization and antiresorptive therapy has not being fully investigated. The goal of the present study was to investigate the structure–function relationship in trabecular bone in the real-world situations of a rapidly evolving osteoporosis (disuse), both with and without antiresorptive treatment. We evaluated the structure–function relationship in trabecular bone after bone loss (disuse-induced osteoporosis) and bisphosphonate treatment (antiresorptive therapy using risedronate) in canine trabecular bone using μCT and ultrasound wave propagation. Microstructure values determined from μCT images were used into the anisotropic poroelastic model of wave propagation in order to compute the apparent elastic constants (EC) and elastic anisotropy pattern of bone. Immobilization resulted in a significant reduction in trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) and bone volume fraction (BV/TV), while risedronate treatment combined with immobilization exhibited a lesser reduction in Tb.Th and BV/TV, suggesting that risedronate treatment decelerates bone loss, but it was unable to fully stop it. Risedronate treatment also increased the tissue mineral density (TMD), which when combined with the decrease in Tb.Th and BV/TV may explain the lack of significant differences in vBMD in both immobilization and risedronate treated groups. Interestingly, changes in apparent EC were much stronger in the superior–inferior (SI) direction than in the medial–lateral (ML) and anterior–posterior (AP) anatomical directions, producing changes in elastic anisotropy patterns. When data were pooled together, vBMD was able to explain 58% of ultrasound measurements variability, a poroelastic wave propagation analytical model (i.e., BMD modulated by fabric directionality) was able to predict 81% of experimental wave velocity variability, and also explained 91% of apparent EC and changes in elastic anisotropy patterns. Overall, measurements of vBMD were unable to distinguish changes in apparent EC due to immobilization or risedronate treatment. However, anisotropic poroelastic ultrasound (PEUS) wave propagation was able to distinguish functional changes in apparent EC and elastic anisotropy patterns due to immobilization and antiresorptive therapy, providing an enhanced discrimination of anisotropic bone loss and the structure–function relationship in immobilized and risedronate-treated bone, beyond vBMD.
3D images from μCT scanning. (a) shows the CN + VEH; (b) displays IM + VEH, in (c) an example from the CN + RIS group and a sample form IM + RIS is shown in (d). The different thickness in trabeculae can be observed in each group.
Global changes in microarchitecture, TMD and vBMD as a consequence of immobilization and antiresorptive treatment. (a)–(c) show the Tb.Th, Tb.Sp, and Tb.N, respectively, and (d)–(f) correspond to BV/TV, TMD, and vBMD. There is a similar pattern for Tb.Th, Tb.N, BV/TV, TMD, and vBMD, and Tb.Sp exhibits the opposite trend. However, significant differences were only found in Tb.Th and BV/TV when comparing CN + VEH versus IM + VEH, indicating a significant effect of immobilization in Tb.Th and BV/TV, and when comparing CN + RIS versus IM + RIS, indicating that immobilization has an effect in Tb.Th and BV/TV, but not in Tb.N, Tb. Sp, TMD, or BMD. It was also found a difference in Tb.Th between IM + VEH and IM + RIS groups, but there is not a difference in Tb.Th or BV/TV when comparing CN + VEH versus IM + RIS, indicating that RIS treatment was effective in slowing the bone loss produced by immobilization.
Magnitude of Fabric components F1, F2, and F3 (eigenvalues) from trabecular bone samples in the CN + VEH, IM + VEH, CN + RIS, and IM + RIS groups. No significant differences were observed due to immobilization or risedronate treatment; however, the comparison of F1, F2, and F3 within each treated group indicates that bone is orthotropic and remained orthotropic after immobilization and risedronate treatment.
Fabric anisotropy in all three anatomical planes are shown as ellipsoidal plots for the CN + VEH, IM + VEH, CN + RIS, and IM + RIS groups. Each group shows mean-SD values (red solid inner ellipsoids), the intermediate ellipsoids (blue) represent the mean values and the open mesh ellipsoids show mean + SD. There is a clear fabric anisotropy (p < 0.05) given by directional dependent microarchitecture within each group. Such DA was found similar in all groups (p > 0.05), indicating that immobilization and risedronate treatment had no significant effect on anisotropy of microarchitecture.
Ultrasonic wave velocities and apparent EC as a function of vBMD (a), theoretical PEUS wave velocities (b), and theoretical EC (c). Coefficient of correlation between wave velocities and vBMD was R2 = 0.58. Theoretical poroelastic wave propagation theory was able to predict 81% of experimental wave velocity variability (R2 = 0.81), and the theoretical poroelastic constants were higher correlated to experimental constants (R2 = 0.91) that vBMD or wave velocity.
The shift from an ellipsoid (CN + VEH) to a more spherical shape (IM + VEH) shows that bone loss is not uniform in all directions. The antiresorptive therapy during immobilization (IM + RIS) exhibit an ellipsoid smaller than CN + RIS, consistent with bone loss, but it maintains the same anisotropy ratio as the control group, indicating a conservation of mechanical function.

Bombshell, ASD the new acronym
Welcome back to the Blog! The last couple weeks have been really busy. We had a friend stay with us for a month, then we went to NYC to celebrate my birthday (The big 4) and for Zoé to visit her family, Grammy Gina and Aunt Wendy, while we enjoyed 3 days away in DC and Virginia.
We got back last Monday and on Friday, March 23rd we went to see Dr. D ( I will keep his name out, just for the sake of privacy) , the neurologist at Stanford. I was eagerly waiting to meet him, having seen him once before, I knew he would answer a lot of questions and fill the void of things I still don't know and may need to learn about.
The appointment lasted 2 hours. We first met Jennifer from the MDA who came to remind us of the MDA support group and the low attendance at the caregivers group. I am one of them, but it is true I never really take the time to go and share my daily strife.
Time is precious and while spending more time and dealing with Zoé's needs seems more important I tend to forget my own.
Any way, after Jennifer we met a Physical Therapist, who had Zoé back in her braces and thinks she looks good in them and that she should wear them more consistently.
So back in AFO mode, though we'll see, he told me to monitor the falls.
He thinks that her braces decrease her catching of the feet, it also decreases her hyperextension of the knee. By doing so she increases her lordosis (Curving of the back) and her shifting of the body to the right.
He thinks that with her AFOs she will benefit from avoiding falls.
We also talked about theratogs, and how they might be beneficial to strengthen core.
He also wants me to massage Zoé's feet, working on ankle dorsiflexion, bringing the foot up at 90 degree, because Zoé's feet are really tight.
Then we met an OT, who gave me some pointers regarding naps that Zoé doesn't take anymore. Quiet time is essential. She mentioned how using a timer can be a good idea. Zoé cannot debate with a timer! The same way she might debate with me.
Structuring quiet time in her overload of therapies and activities is essential. We'll work on it.
After the PT and OT recommendations came Dr. John D., who is awesome. I truly have not met such an amazing, caring, understanding doctor, and god knows how many I have seen in the last 4 years. He was not full of himself, but genuinely human.
I started discussing all the bullet points David and I had worked on the night before.
Mentioning my biggest concern about Zoé's social skills and how "inept" she is. Her inadequacies in the social sphere. It might seem pretty harsh to you, but Zoé doesn't know names of kids in her class. I see it every week when I teach my little French circle time at her preschool, when she does "Show and Tell" and has to call on kids who have their hands up, she never knows their names. Some of these kids she's known for almost 2 years.
Her indifference to kids, her lack of greetings when kids say hi, or bye, etc.
This is when the bombshell fell, as Dr. D. explained things about Myotonic Dystrophy. He actually said it was two diseases in one.
1) a developmental Disorder: where things are not put in the right place, things are simply not 100% right. MMD type 1 is on the ASD: Autism Spectrum Disorder. Doctor D. did mention how it is a very complex situation.
2) a Degenerative Disorder: when physically things fall apart.
He told me that for Zoé he was more concerned about her developmental issues. Cognition is affected by muscles. Something I had never really thought of before. But Zoé's facial configuration, her difficulty with speech, the fact the she "looks different" affects how she is with others. Kids get these things, they see her as different and they behave with her in a different way. However, he said that developmentally she will get better in time, and it will stabilize when she reaches maturity.
Then, that's when physically, things will start falling apart, it will come later in age. The same way it is affecting me, on a slow downhill.
I have more of the myotonia, the fact that when I contract a muscle, it takes a while to loosen up. Zoé is now complaining of neck and back pain. That makes me so sad to think of her later on, once the myotonia kicks in. Even though I cry about it, I have to keep my chin up, and run away with my pain. I cannot let it get to me.
I think the ASD bombshell hasn't hit home yet. The positive note, if one can think of it this way is that there is a lot of money involved in Autism and so he thinks that Zoé will benefit from the services in place for autistic care. He thinks she needs to be part of more structured social interactions, so she can be "trained" for more effective behavior with other kids.We can teach her through coordinating social settings. To identify ways of helping her. Again he did mention how Zoé is at the mild end of the spectrum and that given that fact, she can still take advantage of the tools provided by the system.
So what does the future look like?
She will from now on be seen by a behavioral doctor at Stanford, it will be part of her overall care. She will soon be assessed and of course, I will fill you in once we go for the test. (On an interesting note, I called a behavioral specialist in Berkeley to see if she could assess Zoé, having been given a referral by my pediatrician. The behavioral specialist secretary called me to let me know that since Zoé was only 4 they would apply their cheap rate of $900 without taking insurance!)
Some of Zoé's problems are inevitable, her speech is impaired by her lack of lip closure, the fact that she doesn't smile, she makes an over exaggerated laugh, etc. all these change her appearance and we need to set her in structured social interactions to help her look beyond that initial reaction that other kids may have.
We cannot make these muscles stronger, so we need to transcend other people's reactions. Once these muscles are gone, it is over.
For Zoé, her behavioral pattern could be an innate choice: to wander off, to be in her own world, etc. We need to use the autism approach and mildly use the method therapists will put into place.
Dr. D. asked me how Zoé's sleep was and I did mention that she used to wake up several times a night and wander into our room for absolutely no reason. He mentioned that these events were called "micro awakenings", that the REM sleep indicates what the problem is. A lot of people affected with MMD tend to take stimulant medication to stay cognitively aware, to stay acute cognitively during the day. We need to keep that in mind and we might have to check on Zoé for a sleep evaluation.
We then mentioned a few issues regarding my health and how sometimes I choke on food, that is due to the weakening of the pharynx, regurgitation is hampered, we tend to have acid reflux, which I don't have!
I do have problems of aspiration at night, when saliva seems to be going down the wrong pipe, he suggests putting a wedge under our mattress.
As far as constipation, GI (Gastro intestinal) pain, the stomach is made of smooth muscles and our bowel might be very dilated. It looks like pseudo obstruction due to the fact that one area doesn't work.
Weakness can sometimes go into complete paralysis but it can come back.
He said how important it is to mention to any one that we have motility problems with MMD. The danger is that one can end up in the ER (Emergency Room) for acute pain, which was my case once in NYC. I thought I was literally going to die from the pain. Some doctors might take an XRay and notice the enlarged bowel and want to do surgical emergency procedure and might cut something that shouldn't be touched.
As far as Zoé's neck and back pain, he doesn't think that the myotonia is there yet, but that we should try to move those muscles to loosen them.
Though I have it for sure, my hands go into complete cramping and I have to move the hands to loosen the stiffness, to do more muscle activity is important to relax the muscle.
Regarding my "Poop Battle", he mentioned that getting bowel more active and softened might help Zoé. The abdominal wall is weak hence our problems with constipation.
Heart: have an EKG test done every year to see the progression of change. A Holter monitor (The one we have on for 24 hours) every other year.
The real eye-opener was the question of repeats of the "bad gene sequence" on chromosome 19, that number means nothing!
There is no accurate number because it is found from a blood test, and the gel that they use to see the number has a smear so the lab just gets a number that can vary tenfold at times.
Zoé has 850 repeats
I have 135, my youngest brother has 600, my father had 59, other family members have 61, 62 and 150. We are basically a hodge-podge of numbers that mean nothing!
That was the last positive note on this long description of information.
Dr. D. finished our visit by mentioning that exercise is key. Keep those muscles working.
He checked my left foot and discovered how I had lost those muscles. He mentioned that if I wanted to use ankle foot orthotics and if they enabled me to do more, I should consider a pair.
I am not there yet, and I will keep my regimen of sport including: yoga and walking.
I walked around the lake twice today: 10 to 11 kilometers, making a muscle every step of the way...
Hope this wasn't too tedious a read.
Have a great week!

Enemeez or Enemies?
My heart aches. My nerves are raw. I feel for my Zoé who agonizes on her bed in pain. GI (Gastro-intestinal) Tract attack, the pain is indescribable. I suffer from the same issue, and I know the feeling. The difference is that I have a pill I can take (A medicine I get in France) and my Zoé cannot take it.
Last night she was in such pain, pushing on her bed, her little hands holding the rails of her bed, her teary eyes, and I just felt so helpless.
I had to use an Enemeez ( little vial of stool softener evacuant that you stick up the bum) to relieve her, and within 3 minutes she had the biggest bowel movement ever. I'll spare details not needed at this point. Despite that she was still in terrible pain. The next thing I knew she vomited her entire dinner on her bed. When it doesn't work from one end, it comes out the other end...
Imagine my fright. What if she had done so while sleeping or laying on her back...
Anyway, she hates Enemeez, the true enemies, though at this point they truly help, so should I call them her friends?
I wrote a question on Myotonic.com, our forum for discussion. Will fill you in if I find other solutions about these GI problems
Well in spite of this difficult night, we spent a wonderful day in Santa Cruz on Saturday, wading in the water, barbecuing with great friends and soaking the sun.

No matter what kind of business you run, chances are your professional life depends on the use of many different kinds of technology. Most people in your position find that they cannot get by without quite a few different items, and you are probably no different. But which pieces of technology are the most important, and which can you probably do without? The truth is, the situation is different for everyone, and it is hard to tell what technology is likely to be essential for absolutely everyone in the world of business. Nonetheless, in this post we are going to look at some of the most likely contenders. Some will be obvious, and some less so, but there is no doubt that they are all useful in one way or another - and sometimes, in many ways all at once.
3D Printer
No matter what your business trades in, it is practically a guarantee that you could benefit from the use of a 3D printer. The great thing about this technology is that there is really no limit to what it can be used for. No matter what kinds of products you produce within your business, using a 3D printer could make it a lot easier, cheaper and faster to produce those products. This of course means that you can then charge less for your customers, and that is bound to have a positive effect on the public perception of your brand. Although at the moment the 3D printer is still fairly expensive, soon enough it should prove to be relatively inexpensive, and then it will become all the rage across many businesses. Get in there today and make your business stand out.
The Cloud
Although it is not a physical object like the others, it is possibly even more important than both of them combined. In reality, it is the cloud which enables smartphones to be quite as useful as they are. Used properly, the cloud can allow you to approach your business in a much more hands-on way. It can help you to communicate and share with your colleagues much more easily, for a start. And it might just be the future of inter-business relations before too long.

Getting Serious: The Role of Unions in Alberta's Changing Political Landscape (April 2011)
AFL political action paper presented to AFL 47th Constitutional Convention, April 28 to May 1, 2011
Over the past five or six years, the Alberta Federation of Labour (AFL) has significantly improved its ability to influence the debate over important issues of public policy within the province. Issues like workplace health and safety, the use (and abuse) of temporary foreign
workers and the job implications of exporting raw bitumen were our issues first – but they have now become major items for discussion by policy makers, the media and the broader public.

Dr Oz: Crippled By Fear?
Fear is one of the strongest physical and emotional responses we experience, which is why Dr Oz asked one of his experts to get to the root of fear and why it's holding us back. You can live with fear without letting it run your life. Some fear is healthy, because it can help you survive. It's not abnormal or a sign of weakness. Fear can show itself as mild or paralyzing, but you can choose to let fear help you or hinder you. Fearless people find out what's causing their fear and see it as why they're scared not what they're scared of.
The number one fear you need to overcome in order to succeed in life is the fear of failure.
