NEWPORT COAST — Leave it to Sage Hill School head coach and former NFL wide receiver JR Tolver to put a silver lining on a tough season.
After Friday's 46-0 loss to Las Vegas Division III power Mountain View Christian – think of it as Estancia or a smaller version of Newport Harbor playing against the Lightning – Tolver still kept his players focusing on the big picture.
Despite an 0-7 record – eight straight losses dating to last season – Academy League play still does not begin until Oct. 18 against Brethren Christian at Ocean View, after a much-needed bye week.

It is the day I can finally spend some time with myself, without any burden in my head, thinking which/how many tutorials I have to prepare or which assessment is coming up soon. Here I am, done with the 9-month BPTC course (hell of a ride). Hopefully, I am done-done. Not resits, fingers-crossed.
Well, obviously I've been hanging out with friends for the past few days after the submission of my very last assessments and spending a ridiculous amount of time talking absolute nonsense, playing lame games like 'Fun Run' and sleeping (Duh?). Before I started this blog post, I wanted to write about the past 9 months. But nuh-uh, I am writing about something else.
Here's why.
I will have to start from the summer in 2016. I was spending a lot of time at home with Sis due to my Dad's illness. I always knew that my Sis started a website to write about IPF (Dad's illness). She vaguely told me the purpose of the website and what she was trying to do, but I was never brave enough to pay her website a visit. It has been almost two and a half years since Dad was diagnosed, and we all know we are going to lose him one day. And that day might come very soon, or not. I still cry like a baby when I delve into my feelings towards this issue, or maybe, the reality(?).
(Fast-forwarding the time) It was early May. I was preparing for another assessment coming up in the university PC cluster and a message popped up. It was from a friend, wanting to talk to me in private. Her father was out-of-breath while driving and had to stop the car to take a rest. She wanted to find out which doctors Dad had seen before he was diagnosed. And this, led me to Sis's website, for the very first time. Honestly, after all these years, I still had no clue how Dad was diagnosed and all. The reason for this was because I was too far away from home and my family decided not to tell me anything odd to worry me. That was why I couldn't answer my friend's question but only to send her the link to Sis's website. I quickly escaped from the negative feeling and dived back into revision after. I was scared to open up the wound that I forcefully mend.
Today, I am finally prepared to read my Sis's website and I finally knew how Dad's journey of IPF began. It kinda struck me there. Mum, Sis and Bro were having such a hard time before and when Dad was diagnosed. I am really upset that I wasn't there for my family during that time.
This blog post is not to whine about them not telling me what happened in the first place, not to express how upset I am. This post is a reminder to me, and to anyone who lives far away from home for whatever reasons - time is ticking. While you are working hard to chase your dream, or to make your parents proud, or to provide your family with a better life, you are losing time that you could have spent with them, your loved ones. Cherish them - go home from time to time, make phone calls or even better video calls, send gifts/cards/letters, send love.
Here's a little advertisement to my Sis's website:
Under My White Coat
She put a lot of thought into this, trying to connect with people who experienced/are experiencing the same thing and to do more research on this rare disease (because information available in Malaysia is scarce). There's this indescribable feeling when I was reading all those comments from people who were trying to connect with Sis and the warmth within. I'm sure Sis is super proud of how this website benefiting people with the same concern or experience because I am.
She's also working on @WhiteCoatBites to provide bite-sized revision tweets for Medical Students out there. :) Do check them out!
To finish this up, proud of Sis who always have that kind soul and who is always passionate about her career field and whatever she was working on. Here to wish you best of luck in your life and love you, Jay :)

Read this tip to make your life smarter, better, faster and wiser. LifeTips is the place to go when you need to know about Nursing Home Lawsuit and other Injury Lawyer topics.
Elderly abuse in nursing homes are a concern for anyone looking to place a loved one in a nursing home environment. Most people have a difficult time deciding to put a loved one into a nursing home. The first question that usually comes to mind is: Is it time to take this step. This is a big and difficult question to ask and answer for most. When you and your other family members are no longer able to care for your loved one whom is struggling with maintain basic daily living activities for themselves and the immediate family is unable to fulfill their daily requirements, then it is probably time to seek outside assistance. There are numerous agencies available to help you find, locate and receive the necessary information to make the best decision for your family member. When looking for a nursing home for a family member you will want to start by searching and visiting nursing homes in your area. When you visit the nursing homes you will want to check for cleanliness, staff responses to their ability to care for your loved ones specific needs, speak to some of the residents to find if they are happy with their care and if they have any complaints about the services provided. If you are unable to speak with any residents or they state that they may not be getting the care and treatment which is adequate, you may want to look elsewhere. One of the first signs you may want to watch for from the residence would be the inability or lack of desire to speak with anyone. This may mean they feel there will be consequences if they were to speak out against the staff or organization.

Last night, stylish film stars, musicians and fashion mavens flocked to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York for the prestigious fashion event, the Costume Institute Benefit Gala. Attendees paid tribute to the Costume Institute's next exhibit, China: Through the Looking Glass, with their red carpet looks.
Stunning Maybelline New York spokesmodel, Gigi Hadid turned heads in her sassy red Diane von Furstenberg dress with thigh-high slit.
Celebrity makeup artist, Patrick Ta worked with the model to get her red carpet ravishing using products from Maybelline New York — no surprise there!
"The inspiration for Gigi's inaugural MET Ball came from a recent runway show in Paris. Gigi loves a natural look so applying to much makeup on her face is a crime! We kept her youthful and fresh, but still sexy by playing up the eyes," shared Patrick Ta.
The Beauty Breakdown
Starting with a clean face, Ta applied a thick moisturizer to create a luminous and smooth foundation. Next, he applied Maybelline New York Master Prime in Blur + Illuminate, followed by Maybelline New York Dream Pure BB to ensure Gigi's complexion looked "clean and bright."
Ta lightly contoured the hollows of Hadid's cheeks accentuating the cheekbones using Maybelline New York Fit Me Bronzer. Next, he applied Maybelline New York Fit Me Blush in Medium Pink and Deep Coral to the apples for a healthy flush. Ta finished the complexion with Maybelline New York Mineral Power Finishing Veil Translucent Loose Powder to ensure staying power throughout the entire evening.
Hadid wanted the eyes to look bright and clean, yet sultry. To create the look, Ta applied a champagne shade in the crease and a neutral shade on the lid from Maybelline New York The Blushed Nudes Palette (launching June 2015).
Next, using an angled brush he applied Maybelline New York Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner in Blackest Black, drawing a thin winged line starting half way on the eyelid. Ta then curled Hadid's lashes and applied two coats of Maybelline New York Great Lash Lots Of Lashes Washable in Very Black. Finally he added tons of individual lashes in short and medium to create twinkly eyes.
To amplify Hadid's brows, Ta used Maybelline New York Eye Studio Master Shape Brow Pencil in Blonde.
Ta applied Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lipcolor in Born With It — a flesh tone shade — to complement Hadid's more vibrant blush color.
To complete the look, nail artist Mar y Soul applied Maybelline New York's Color Show in the true red shade of Paint The Town, topped with a matte top coat.
What do you think of Gigi's beauty look?

Why do I always feel tired and sleepy?
I sleep at least 4 to 6 hours a day (literally). I stay awake at night and I sleep in the morning. I thought it is because of the fat burners I'm taking. So I decided to stop drinking it, but still I always feel tired.
I searched online of some tips on how to stop feeling sleepy and here's what I found out:
#1 – Stop Eating Late: Why does this matter? Well when you eat your body has to divide up its energy towards digestion. This doesn't change when you sleep, and sleep time is the time when your body needs all of its resources to rejuvenate and heal for the next coming day. If you eat late at night you're literally depriving yourself of 2-4 hours of quality sleep depending on how much you're eating before bed. The best advice? Don't eat anything 3 hours before bed.
#2 – In Bed by 10pm: Why? Because it's been shown that the human body has a key resting time between 10pm-2am if you constantly skip over sleeping during these hours then you're missing out on some very high quality sleeping time!
Hmmm! With my kind of work, sleeping before 10pm is impossible. But I will still try.

When it's time for your company parties and banquets, the best way to save face (and career) is to think "professional meaner" all the way. Your company party is NOT like going out on the town. People are watching you and rumors are sure to spread like spam if you take one step in the wrong direction. Just ask yourself, "Would MOM approve of what I'm doing?" So... "Mind your p's & q's!"

if the law dictates that we know where our t-shirt was made by the label inside
why isn't the same standard in place for the food we bring to our table?
(an interesting piece to listen to here.)
by chance i noticed a can of organic black beans - brand of a regular stop on our grocery hunt - had a "product of china" stamp on it. (saw it once then never saw it again on another can... hmmm...)black beans and brown rice are brought to our table on a regular basis. in an attempt to eat more locally i am trying to find out where they came from. (hey, california is the breadbasket of the world they tell me, so shouldn't i be able to find them grown here?) so i am on a search. any ideas where to start?

Made in America (Toys)
While channel hoping recently I landed on the Travel Channel's Made in America. For those who don't know this is the show where John Ratzenberger drives around the US in a bus, visiting people who make American goods. The show I saw featured Marble King in West Virginia.
Glass marbles are one of those objects of desire for me. I had no idea this place existed despite their claim to be "The World's Best Known, Best Loved Marbles". But I know where I am going for stocking stuffers for the holidays this year.
I don't know how environmentally responsible King Marble is but I like the idea of not adding to America's trade deficit by buying from home.
Do you have any favorite made in America toys?

Homemade Popsicles
So the kid came home with stories of popsicles being served at school as a snack. The colors he described suggested they weren't serving up the most natural product so I decided to have a go at making some at home. I picked up some "vintage" Tupperware moulds on Ebay (try searching for popsicle moulds) and we simply used orange juice, apple juice, and fresh blueberries and apple juice whizzed together in a blender.
We buy organic juice anyway so voilà organic, good for you, popsicles. And they were really good! What could be better on a hot LA summer day?

Holztiger Wooden Figures
I've just discovered Holztiger wooden figures. Handmade in Germany from wood and painted with non-toxic paints there is something very desirable about these little figures. I treated myself to a mushroom but I'm also coveting the owl and turtle.
I'm not sure you could say these are "green" exactly. I couldn't find out if the hardwood they use is sustainably produced wood and they have to make the journey from Germany but they sure beat the toxic Elmos and Doras currently coming out of China.
You can find a list of US dealers on the Holztiger website. PADiLLY seems to have one of the largest selections and that's where I got mine from.
Let us know if you know of any other greener toy options.

Online Resources
One of the reasons Tracy and I started Two Green Chickens was to share green resources with each other. To this end I'm starting a list of online resources so I can remember where I saw that cute organic onesie when I'm looking for a shower gift or those natural sewing supplies.
I don't think that Blogger has the concept of pages yet (if someone knows otherwise please let me know) so I will create a post and link to it in the right column. We will update the post as we discover new resources.

The Tainted Son, Typhon Valkamph
Join date
Subject: The Tainted Son, Typhon Valkamph
Tue Apr 07, 2009 11:57 pm
Name: Typhon
Last Name: Valker-Tenormaleth [self-stated as 'Valkamph']
Title: The Tainted Son
Faction: Allied with the Horde
Race: Tainted High Elf
Character Description:
Typhon stands at an abnormal height of 6'7" He looks like the normal everyday Blood Elf you would see walking around Silvermoon City. His golden-red hair was cut short and spiked back. His eyes glowed a much darker green than most of the Blood Elves, easily noticed, but dismissed as being one of the more Fel-Afflicted Elves of the Race. He had spent many of his years training in both Magics and in Stealth and the arts of the Shadows, changing the way he looked a bit. Due to his adept magical training, and birth rite as a Sorcerer, his skin would glow a bit if he concentrated upon something, or the veins of Magic running the length of his body would show through like an immensely intricate rune. While the physical training made him lithe and well toned, giving him both deft movements, everything was measured in advanced, while strengthening his sight, his gaze, even though undecipherable like the rest of his race, had a sort of ..... daunting quality to it, It could be felt, rather than seen. He had no tattoos, and no markings upon his body, knowing when to fight, and when to retreat.
Character Background (History, in other words):
Typhon was born in the Sunwell Grove, to one of the Guardian Families, nothing notable, much of the race was charged with this. When he was young, maybe 30 - 35, His friends made him a bet, saying that he was too chicken to go up to the Sunwell, And as most Youths at that age would, he blatantly told them he could, and would do it. That day was slow, definitely odd, but not unheard of. The guards were starting to doze, the calm weather, the ambiance, even the splash of water seemed to have a hypnotic effect on everyone. The Watcher had retired earlier, saying it was 'That day' again, The guards strained to keep from fainting. As Typhon slipped from shadow to shadow he drew upon the Sunwell's housing, the guards seemed to have already been dozing. A sly smirk drew across his face, staring from one of his friends to another, Having known both guards since birth, he grabbed the lute at his side, taking a steadying breath and began playing a lullaby, Having been told this was the one that their parents had used to put them to sleep as babes. He smirked broadly as the two nearly collapsed, laying back against the wall and sliding down to begin snoring softly.
"Nows the chance"
Typhon chuckled softly to himself, slipping through the archway, and around the corner only to find that his song had put 4 more guards to sleep, each grouped in sets of two and sitting back to back, or side to side, in the middle of the grass. One seemed to be drooling and twitching in his sleep, his partner was collapsed weakly on his shoulder. Typhon smiled and shook his head, slipping quickly through the courtyard and into the main room, blinking and tilting his head at the ramp. He glanced from side to side, frowning
"Something isn't Right, Shouldn't the well have a hundred guards around it?"
He spoke softly to himself, slipping down the ramp quickly and looking around as he neared the 'Well. He frowned again, looking at the waters, which roiled and rolled agitatedly, almost as if they were a bundle of snakes that had been prodded with a sharp stick. He couldn't tear his eyes away, his feet began moving on their own, The Well seemed to be calling out to him, the voice was seductive, un-ignorable. He finally caught himself, just an inch short of teetering off the edge and into the unsteady waters, It was already too late, his footing slipped on something, The top of his body fell forward as his feet slipped back and up. At the last second he felt a strong hand grip his foot, the right side of his cheek hit the water, a single cut had been opened on his face, the water splashed and entered the wound, literally fusing with his Physical Body, and his Magical Energies, changing him irreversibly for the rest of his life. The Watcher frowned, pulling Typhon up and cradling the small form to him.
The Watcher said softly, he frowned at Typhon, the boys form had suffered from the contact with the Well, sending him into a forced coma, the pure shock of such a powerful link should have killed him. The Watcher frowned and took Typhon up to the secret room in the back of the Watcher's Tower.
For nearly a hundred years Typhon did not wake, his body continued to change and grow faster and more than normal. His body had seemed physically responsive during the coma, if someone were to touch his skin he would attempt to reach out to them, his arm falling limp at his side within moments. IF someone spoke his name, his ears would twitch. If he was smacked or hit he would utter a grunt of pain.
As the years went on, somehow, his muscles remained as lithe and toned as ever. Within days of coming out of his coma he had finally convinced his 'Father' the Watcher, to allow him to begin training. His parents had died, being executed for treason, having attempted to give away the location of the Sunwell to the Humans. The newer points of his life we relatively unknown or Non-notable, being Darker work for one organization or another, or normal work. Currently he resides in Silvermoon, working as a Tanner and a Leather worker, It's a living
Typhon is a Night Blade, a volatile, and powerful, combination between a Sorcerer and a Rogue/Assassin/thief. He has a proficient grip over Illusion, most notably a Chameleon spell that allows him to blend in with his environment. He can cast Destruction spells, along with some minor healing spells. He is an okay alchemist, able to brew a good potion/poison should the need arise. Knows a few Alteration spells, and some Mysticism, No Conjuration, however. [yes, i know it came from Elder Scrolls, but i needed a thing to separate the spell casting into

23 July 2014 , Source: Ethiopia Government
Dr. Taleb Raifi, Secretary General of the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), announced on Sunday (July 20) that UNWTO would continue to promote Ethiopia's rich and extensive historical, cultural and natural tourist sites. He said the organization would collaborate with Ethiopia's Ministry of Culture and Tourism to protect the heritage of the country, and help set up multi-tourism organizations as well as expand tourist infrastructures.
As Ethiopia was the cradle of human kind, he said, UNWTO remained committed to advertise Ethiopia's historic, religious and natural attractions through various promotional activities as well work to make Ethiopia a preferred tourist destination.
Tadelech Dalecho, State Minister for the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, emphasized that the discussions she had with the Secretary General of UNWTO were helpful in carrying forward Ethiopia's vision of becoming one of the top five tourist destinations in Africa by 2020. She noted that UNWTO's support would help create capacity to expedite the promotional activities necessary to transform the tourism industry. She said she appreciated UNWTO's pragmatic engagement in publicizing Ethiopia's major tourist attraction sites and provide support in the development of infrastructure.
What's driving today's economic growth in tourism? Where does the future of tourism lie? And how are organizations in the travel and meetings/events industry finding renewed vitality, spunk and financial vigor? The answer lies in Specialty Markets. As every organization should develop and execute a business strategy on Specialty Markets, this blog is dedicated to assisting you and your company in such endeavors. So what are the Specialty Markets? That's what we'll discover together below...

Good housekeepers are very scarce in the South, but no lady can make a goettt wife un-less she understands that pavticu-larart. She should not wait until she marries either to learn it. It is an absolute duty that devolves upon the mothers of our country, to teach their daughters every thing that pertains to scientific housekeeping. It sho.uld be one branch of their education, just the same as it should be one branch of a young man's education to learn the scientific principles of agriculture. A young lady may be ever so accomplished in every other department, but if she is mestic economy, lor they had never been taught it. It is an imperative duty that devolves on all mothers to teach their daugh-tors every thing pertaining to household duties. For why should women be idle? nothing weakens mind and body half as much as idleness, and unfits them for entering the sacred realms of married life. It is much safer and happier to be a queen of the kitchen, than a parlor sentiment-alist. Yourjs very respectfully, - T. J. H. State News. per month.

For Iiis treatment of Ladies' Diseases, Dr. Bille is deservedly renowned, and no lady suffering from Amenorrhoea, Dy&inenorrhOea, Hysteria, Prolapsus Uteri, or any other disease peculiar to the female system, should not fail to call on Dr. Bille, as they will quickly be relieved of their suffering and ulti-mately restored to perfect health.

Being a pupil of the most re-nowned Physician for syphilitic diseases in the world.

Dr. Bille wishes to call particular at-tention to his new discovery, by which lie can, by the help Of microscope and chemistry, discover if there is any syphilitic poison in the blood, which is of the greatest importance, as persons having had venereal diseases often be-lieve- themselves cured,-and the poison still remains in the blood to break out sooner or later. Dr. Bille has resided in New Orleans for 3'ears, is endorsed by the best citizens there, and by his skill, knowledge and successful cures has obtained a great reputation as a specialist. DR.

Exodus 30
The Altar of Incense1 a "You shall make b an altar on which to burn incense; you shall make it of acacia wood. 2 A cubit ▼
▼ A cubit was about 18 inches or 45 centimetersshall be its length, and a cubit its breadth. It shall be square, and two cubits shall be its height. d Its horns shall be of one piece with it. 3 You shall e overlay it with pure gold, its top and around its sides and its horns. And you shall make a molding of gold around it. 4 And you shall make two golden rings for it. Under its molding on two opposite sides of it you shall make them, and they shall be f holders for poles with which to carry it. 5 You shall make the poles of acacia wood and overlay them with gold. 6 And you shall put it in front of the veil that is above the ark of the testimony, in front of the g mercy seat that is above the testimony, where I will meet with you. 7 And Aaron shall h burn fragrant incense on it. Every morning when he i dresses the lamps he shall burn it, 8 and when Aaron sets up the lamps at twilight, he shall burn it, a regular incense offering before the Lord throughout your generations. 9 You shall not offer j unauthorized incense on it, or a burnt offering, or a grain offering, and you shall not pour a drink offering on it. 10 k Aaron shall make atonement on its horns once a year. With the blood of the l sin offering of atonement he shall make atonement for it once in the year throughout your generations. It is most holy to the Lord."
The Census Tax11 The Lord said to Moses, 12 m "When you take the census of the people of Israel, then each shall give n a ransom for his life to the Lord when you number them, that there be no plague among them when you number them. 13 Each one who is numbered in the census shall give this: half a shekel ▼
▼ A shekel was about 2/5 ounce or 11 gramsaccording to the p shekel of the sanctuary (the q shekel is twenty gerahs), ▼
▼ A gerah was about 1/50 ounce or 0.6 grams half a shekel as an offering to the Lord. 14 Everyone who is numbered in the census, from twenty years old and upward, shall give the Lord's offering. 15 The rich shall not give more, and the poor shall not give less, than t the half shekel, when you give the Lord's offering to make atonement for your lives. 16 You shall take the atonement money from the people of Israel and shall u give it for the service of the tent of meeting, that it may bring the people of Israel to v remembrance before the Lord, so as to make atonement for your lives."
The Bronze Basin17 The Lord said to Moses, 18 "You shall also make a w basin of bronze, with its stand of bronze, for washing. x You shall put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it, 19 with which Aaron and his sons y shall wash their hands and their feet. 20 When they go into the tent of meeting, or when they come near the altar to minister, to burn a food offering ▼
▼ Or an offering by fireto the Lord, they shall wash with water, so that they may not die. 21 They shall wash their hands and their feet, so that they may not die. It shall aa be a statute forever to them, even to him and to his offspring throughout their generations."
The Anointing Oil and Incense22 The Lord said to Moses, 23 "Take the ab finest spices: of liquid myrrh 500 shekels, and of sweet-smelling cinnamon half as much, that is, 250, and 250 of ac aromatic cane, 24 and 500 of cassia, according to the shekel of the sanctuary, and a ad hin ▼
▼ A hin was about 4 quarts or 3.5 litersof olive oil. 25 And you shall make of these a sacred anointing oil blended as by the af perfumer; it shall be a ag holy anointing oil. 26 ah With it you shall anoint the tent of meeting and the ark of the testimony, 27 and the table and all its utensils, and the lampstand and its utensils, and the altar of incense, 28 and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils and the ai basin and its stand. 29 You shall consecrate them, that they may be most holy. aj Whatever touches them will become holy. 30 ak You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests. 31 And you shall say to the people of Israel, 'This shall be my holy anointing oil throughout your generations. 32 It shall not be poured on the body of an ordinary person, and you shall make no other like it in composition. al It is holy, and it shall be holy to you. 33 am Whoever compounds any like it or whoever puts any of it on an outsider shall be cut off from his people.'" 34 The Lord said to Moses, an "Take sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum, sweet spices with pure frankincense (of each shall there be an equal part), 35 and make an ao incense blended as by the ap perfumer, aq seasoned with salt, pure and holy. 36 You shall beat some of it very small, and put part of it before the testimony in the tent of meeting ar where I shall meet with you. as It shall be most holy for you. 37 And the incense that you shall make at according to its composition, you shall not make for yourselves. It shall be for you holy to the Lord. 38 au Whoever makes any like it to use as perfume shall be cut off from his people."

Review for ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF WASHINGTON (aka Cougar Mountain Zoo), Issaquah, WA, USA
It was a wonderful experience. I had always love cats and being close to the tigers was so cool. My favorite part was the tunnel. I took lot of pictures, good thing they were not camera shy. I highly recommend the place. The staffs were nice and really friendly. The zoo is clean and very well kept. Thanks to all hard working people of Cougar Mountain Zoo. Cant wait for the cheetahs to come.

Richard Vastag watched Susan Malloy as she removed her jumpsuit. The odd thing was that Richard knew that she knew; that he was watching her. She could see his pupils dilate in the locker room mirror as she disrobed slowly; allowing her suit to glide over her NASA sculpted curves; her hair falling as if flowing from the heavens themselves. Each silken strand gliding over her svelte shoulders and finally embracing the shape of her perfectly formed breasts. She'd even winked at him and all Richard could do was mop his own brow and try to contain the nearly overwhelming effect she was having over his body.
Trying desperately to avert his gaze from this display, Richard feverishly fumbled with the Velcro that held his jumpsuit together. It parted at alarming volume as he noticed with embarrassment the stiffening of his trouser area. Now he had to turn so she'd not see the effect that she was having over him. "Ooh does this mean you're pleased to see me?" Gerry's voice shattering the mood now, as Richard looked up to the face of the man leering at his tightening crotch. Richard blushed as Gerry mulled over to Susan, "Told you!" Susan giggled, she tousled her hair and nibbled at her lip in that sensuous yet coy way that only Susan had: "Nah he's married, Gerry you're such a tease!"
In that moment, Richard had bemoaned her voice; hated the way that she had flirted with Gerry, that arrogant prick. The way that her eyes flowed over Gerry's near nakedness calmly absorbing every contour of his perfectly sculpted gym body, made Richard want to wretch. Richard eyed his own flabby stomach, the mirror's reflection of his balding head and his almost skeletal wrists. He sighed resignedly and clambered into his civilian clothes unceremoniously. By the time he'd changed his clothes, perfect Susan and gay Gerry had left the locker room. That was surely a good thing, he mused glancing at his watch. He was going to be home an hour early; unless he stopped off for a beer, that he really didn't fancy drinking. Richard was never in a hurry to go home, it was a place where passion, love and fulfilment were little more than electrical words; floating in an e-dictionary somewhere in the middle of the e- library's vast online archives. Each word was a lost concept in a callous world; yet sorely missed none- the- less.
Richard pulled up at the house and watched the light flick on in the master bedroom; he watched the silhouettes of a female form as her legs opened, then a male form rising between them. He watched the display dispassionately for what seemed like hours and mere seconds at the same time. Moments of frozen time that emblazoned themselves into the annals of his aching memory. Richard switched off the engine, the hovercar slowly descended to the driveway. The house seemed to be a mile away and yet time plays wickedly at the imagination in times like these. Richard felt curiously numb, as he unlocked the door and crept into the house. Closing the door slowly he could hear them now; voices in the bedroom panting and giggling in sordid sexual subterfuge. His feet seemed to glide to that first stair, and then he was slowly and quietly creeping endlessly upward. Up those ethereal stairs he drifted toward those sounds; the noises of marital nightmares.
Passing a picture now of the children in their mother's arms; two spoiled and ungrateful teenagers a progeny as loveless as their own mother. Their mother yes, that bitch who right now was romping with a man that was more likely to be those children's father; than the very man that called them his daughters. Richard peered into those bedrooms and gently closed their doors en route to his ultimate redemption; his very destiny.

Havening Therapy
Dr Ronald Ruden the co-creator of Havening along with his brother Dr Steven Ruden says..... When an event or experience is perceived as traumatic or very stressful it becomes immutably encoded, often with life altering consequences. However recent research in the field of neuroscience has shown us how it's possible to modify this encoding.
We are all aware that sensory encoding changes our thought behaviour (think Mozart, chicken soup, or hugging your child) but for the most part these changes are transient. Is it possible to use sensory input to create permanent change? The Havening techniques™ is a method, which is designed to change the brain to de-traumatize the memory and permanently remove its negative effects from both our psyche and our body.
Here are some of the conditions that respond to Havening Therapy...
Chronic pain
Distressing memories (broken relationships, shocking news, loss, embarrassment, etc)
Victims of natural disasters (hurricanes, floods, etc) and man-made (war, fire assault, home intrusion, etc)
Fear of abandonment
Panic attacks
Emotional eating.... and more.

Let's let June be the month where I talk about the brands I adore, old and new. Eden Bodyworks has an amazing and inspiring story of creation. I had the opportunity to meet her last year during Essence Fest, and she was as gracious and genuine as her products. I've had wonderful results with them, from the JOJOBA All Natural Hair Oil to Coconut Shea Curl Defining Crème.
I haven't experienced buildup and I find washing them out is a breeze. Since I no longer relax my hair, I don't experience dandruff, however, in our humid climate means the Peppermint Tea Tree line will be great for removing extra grime for outdoor workouts!
The current combination I like using the LOC (leave-in, oil, cream) method:
Coconut Shea Leave-In Conditioner
Jojoba Monoi Hair Oil
Coconut Shea Curl Defining Crème
Some days, I use the Monoi Deep Conditioner instead of the crème; I find it works better for twist-outs. I'll be #MooningInJune over other brands – keep a lookout!

I spent the afternoon at Grand Anse Beach yesterday.
I met a new friend.
Her name is Sandy.
She has thick brown hair.
And she definitely needs to work on her tan a little more.
She is a bit more risque in her bathing suit choices than I am.
Sandy doesn't say much.
And honestly, she really is kinda lazy.
But she was quite popular with all the people on the beach.
Although I doubt I'll see her again anytime soon.
My guess is she headed off to another island, Carriacou perhaps?

Offices have a credibility for being dull and boring . Cubicles, white walls, a water cooler where workers can collect to chatter — exactly what else does a business area require?

On Saturday I drove to Salisbury for classes. The first class starts at 2:00 and is the puppy/beginner agility class. I took this class last week with Midge, but decided to switch her out with Fern and then at home, practice on what I learned with Midge. Fern did well for about 30 minutes, then I could see she was starting to crash, so I finished the class with Midge. An hour long class is a bit too much for an eleven week old puppy. Midge enjoyed herself in the class. She got to run over a flattened A-frame, go through weave-o-matic weave poles which we gradually moved up into a straight position so she had to weave through them, which she did. We also started with single box jump drills.
For the Master's level class (Gel's class), the instructor had set up a USDAA Grand Prix course. It was brutal! As always, she broke the course into two segments and then once we had all had the opportunity to run half the course, we ran the entire course. I almost fell over in exhaustion and frustration! There was so much handling involved. I got very frustrated with myself because my handling felt so awful. The instructor came out and talked to me about that (my frustration), which was a good thing! She told me afterwards that Gel is running really, really nice, which he is. Luckily Gel is immune to my frustration; Midge isn't going to be so I need to get better about that.
While I had Fern and then Midge in their class, Gel was in the car in his crate carrying on loudly about being left behind. He thinks he should be the center of my universe (he is, but I can't let him know that) all the time. While we were waiting for the other dogs to run, I lie Gel down by my car in the shade. He may pop up to look at a particularly svelte female Border Collie running the course, but in general, he stays put. Several of the handlers asked me how long it took me to teach him to stay like that. I thought about it and said, he's always done it. I taught start line stays as part of my foundation work. When I tell Gel to stay put, he's pretty darned good about doing so. He never blows start line stays.
I wish I had a dollar for everyone who comments on how nice my dogs are. Even though Gel can be rude when greeting people (he is getting better at it); this initial rudeness is soon forgotten when they watch him work and just be Gel. Midge is simply a pleasant dog to be around. I had nothing to do with this, this is how she came to me. Fern loves to be handed off to anyone who wants to hold her and expresses her appreciation with tons of kisses. She's very appropriate when meeting new dogs, she doesn't run into a strange dog's space, she's not afraid, just appropriate. She travels wonderfully (they all do) and is quiet in her crate, even when she's left alone in the car.
On Sunday I brought the flock of sheep out into the back fields and worked both dogs, which was a lot of fun. I haven't had the dogs on sheep, except for moving them around to graze in quite a while. I knew Midge was happy, she had a huge smile on her face! I had intended to get some photographs on Sunday, but that didn't happen. Later in the evening, I worked Gel on weave pole entries at speed.
I did finish painting the contact areas on my A-frame and teeter board as well as putting a fresh coat of paint on the dog walk. Now all I need is someone to help me carry the A-frame over to where I practice and to buy a teeter base to mount the board one. My table is done too, except for buying the PVC connectors to make the legs it will sit on. For now, I can use it on the ground.
Next Saturday I go to Lynne Stephen's facility for a lesson. Lynne helped me start Gel in agility. Her foundation training has really paid off. I am looking forward to her assistance in getting Midge going as she's a very different dog than Gel.
I go to three different agility instructors, all within 70 miles. I get something useful out of all of them and do not find their styles conflicting at all. I take what I can from them and then go from there. It is very, very nice to be able to get to such qualified instructors without having to drive three hours one way as I was doing for herding instruction.

Regardless of age or gender around 80 per cent of the population will suffer from lower back pain at some time in their life!
The lower back, otherwise known as the lumbar spine separates the pelvis and thorax, allowing for mobility between the two and provides points of attachment for many muscles.
Back pain is commonly triggered by:
- Long periods of sitting or standing
- Heavy lifting
- Injury
- Pregnancy
- Irregularity, irritable bowel and endometriosis
- Menstrual pain
- Inadequate flexibility
- Weak muscles
- Dysfunction in the thorax, lower limbs and pelvis.
There are numerous reasons for pain in the lower back. Our Diamond Creek Osteopaths, as primary health care practitioners, are trained to differentiate between uncomplicated back pain and back pain needing referral to specialist care such as fracture, tumour and infection.
Common Lower Back Injuries seen at Osteo for Families Diamond Creek
Joint Sprain: Overstretching of the ligaments connecting one vertebrae to another typically caused by a sudden and quick movement of the spine. This results in pain, inflammation and tightening of the surrounding muscles.
Disc bulge: Refers to compression of the disc, a soft material which sits between each vertebrae and allows for flexibility and absorbs compressive loads. Due to the small amount of blood supply here healing times are longer. In some cases this may be accompanied by irritation/compression of an adjacent nerve leading the symptoms such as numbness, weakness, tingling and pins and needles.
Arthritis: Degeneration of the spine due to long term wear and tear leading to stiffness and restricted mobility.
Osteo For Families practitioners will assist you in developing the most reliable strategies to resolve and manage your back pain. Our aim is to:
- Enhance joint mobility
- Decrease muscular tightness, stress, swelling and nerve irritation
- Improve blood supply and drainage to and from the spine and hips
- Reduce the period of lower back pain episodes
- Help prevent future episodes by offering recommendations on posture (including enhancing your ergonomic environment), exercises and stretching
- Offer guidance on diet plan, hydration and exercise
- Refer for radiological or specialist assessment if required
If you or someone you know is suffering from low back pain of any type, please do not hesitate to give Osteo For Families Diamond Creek and Darwin a call on 0416 161 411 to make an appointment.

Elsie Digital Broadcasting
Broadcast whenever, wherever. Let your voice be heard
For as long as I can remember my mother use to say, "LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD, SPEAK UP FOR YOURSELF." Since I was very young boy I have always loved radio and theater of the mind as they say. After a brief career in radio at the age of 20 my first child was born and I was forced to become a single father. Forced to end my career in needs to provide, I left my passion to entertain others with my voice. In early 2013, my mother who was always my biggest supporter suffered a massive stroke leaving her without the ability to speak and as she always said let her voice be heard. After a short battle to regain her abilities a second stroke hit and we lost her a few hours later. My mother always use to ask me when you will return to your passion. I never really had an answer. Radio is such a small window of opportunity. After her passing I realized broadcasting was my passion, but is FM radio really the future. After evaluating the field and seeing what listeners actually wanted I realized, they want on demand. They want to be able to listen to what they want, when they want and how they want to. Podcasting and digital media provides all those options. Thus came the idea for Elsie Digital. A digital broadcasting provider to allow not only myself but anyone with a passion to let their voice be heard. A full functioning studio with the ability to allow me to record Mr. Smith all the way in Boston through Skype and transform his ideas into a weekly or monthly podcast without even leaving his home and spending $40,000 on a communication degree. Recording , posting, editing and distributing of the podcast all done and completed for a fee, leaving the only work for the broadcaster is their voice and what they want to be heard by others.
Risks and challenges
As with any business venture, challenges will always be a block in the road. The funding I am seeking is to improve and update the materials and tools that I am currently using. The biggest challenge I may have to over come is building a fan base for the network. Since the soft launch I have been able to in just a few days to obtain over 200 downloads of our first 2 shows by promoting on social media. Improving my tools and equipment will allow me to produce higher quality content and distribute faster and to more people then ever before.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

Games First Preview
You know that any video game that has anything to do with David Bowie is going to be . . . ah, interesting. From his early incarnation as Ziggy Stardust to his Berlin period with Eno and Iggy to his work in such films as Roeg's The Man Who Fell to Earth, Bowie has been riding the cutting edge for most of his protean career, fearlessly bending both gender and genre. So it seems fitting that Eidos and Quantic Dream's Omikron, a game that Bowie wrote eight songs for and in which he will appear as the character Boz, is also a cutting-edge genre-bender. Though billed as a 3D action-adventure game, Eidos claims that it will incorporate "adventure, exploration, action, combat and role playing elements." Omikron will also implement such original features as facial motion capture in real-time, and will contain more than 400 different sets in four huge cities, 140 characters that move in 3D real time, and over four hours of dialogue.
The game's premise is that the player suddenly finds their soul projected to a different dimension and into a new body. Of course, the player will have no inkling of why this happened, and the game consists of unravelling the mystery of why it did. To do so, the player must scour the city of Omikron in search of deliverance. To win the game the player will have to engage in a myriad of activities, including conversing, fighting, shooting, and driving. Though most of the game will be played 3rd person view, 1st person will be used for shooting. Omikron's designers pride themselves upon the game's non-linear play; the player will be allowed complete freedom of movement in the massive real-time world of Omikron, and will be able to enter any building (provided they are welcome) and talk to any character at any time.
One of the game's coolest features (and one it shares with Messiah, another highly-anticipated game) is what it calls "Virtual Reincarnation." If the body that your nomad soul inhabits is killed, your soul will automatically transmigrate into the next person that touches the corpse. This will allow players to play in several different bodies (including that of Bowie's supermodel wife, Iman) in each game, and each body will have different abilities. And there have been some hints that you will be able to improve, RPG-like, these abilities.
Omikron also seeks to push the technological envelope. It will be the first game to use real-time facial motion capture, and will contain within it a fighting game that includes 3D motion-captured fighting moves modelled from real-life martial arts champions.
Ah, and the music. David Bowie and Reeves Gabrels have created original music for the game, including eight new songs. In the game, you'll be able to catch Bowie (as his character Boz) performing these songs in bars throughout the city of Omikron, and you can even purchase the "virtual album" of the music in-game, take it back to your virtual apartment, and kick back with a virtual beverage while virtually chillin'. We haven't heard any of the tracks yet, but they promise to be—as one would expect from Bowie—different from the norm. According to Bowie, "I moved right away from the stereotypical industrial game music sound. My priority in writing music for Omikron was to give it an emotional subtext. It feels to me as though Reeves and I have achieved that."
Omikron looks like one of the most ambitious, gorgeous, and intriguing games of the upcoming year. If it can pull the many genres it attempts to span into any sort of coherent whole, it could be one of the most successful as well.
We'll see when the game is released this Fall.
