Just a thought. Next Saturday we are going to see Cat on a Hot Tin Roof in the West End starring Darth Vadar and Mrs Cosby.
I simplify for effect, of course.
On the train back from London this afternoon, I noticed an advert in the paper for the play. It had a picture of each of the four leads. Above each picture is a word relating their performances, culled from reviews. The words include 'superb' and 'stunning'.
Amongst such praise, the 'excellent' above Phylicia Rashad seems a little flat. I know excellent should be high praise, maybe it is a touch overused. Excellent is not, after all, stunning. It is merely excellent.
But then excellent should not be merely anything. Odd really.
As a footnote, I notice that Richard Blackwood appears in a small role. Remember him? It will be interesting to see if he is worth his place in the cast or if the producers had a very limited imagination when compiling a list of actors to appear in this 'all-black production' (Evening Standard).

Praise so faint you can barely see it
Just a thought. Next Saturday we are going to see Cat on a Hot Tin Roof in the West End starring Darth Vadar and Mrs Cosby.

Social climbing
It's quite a day.
I guess there are several big events, not least the assembly of the Christmas tree. I mean assembly, not in the sense of putting together all the ornaments for display but attaching the branches to trunk.
Yes, it's artificial, of course it is. However, it's been a long time since I've had any kind of Christmas tree (bah humbug, well not really). The last artificial tree I remember putting up or pulling down had branches that simply folded. Therefore I have no idea is this is the norm now. I didn't notice the dismantling being part of the sales pitch.
It's not a whinge, you understand, just an observation.
Which is kind of important because of what else happened today. I had a meeting with a small charity in London for whom I am doing some writing. The person leading the project was late. I was therefore left in a meeting with two cats marking their territory.
I felt thoroughly patronised. The level of condescension reached epic proportions every time I opened my mouth. Of course, because I do not work there, because I am merely an outsider, I do not understand the subtle nuances of the organisation., blah, blah, blah.
When the project leader (terrible expression) arrived, he proceeded to completely change the course of the meeting and we ended up a million miles away from where the cats wanted to be.

An English In Kentucky
Monday May 6th 2013
Tim Candler
The Summer Tanager has chosen his tree to sing from.
It's nice to again be in the presence of my post structural friend, but
sadly his tree this year is in earshot of the room where I sleep. So I
will have to listen to him harp on at an hour of the day when thought
process is best left uncomplicated by external stimuli. Today the
Tanager entered morning dreams a little before the sunrise. I was
in the lecture hall, undergoing scrutiny, my thesis on Barn Swallow
attacked by the more practical minds of Banana Growers, it was getting
ugly with sneering and I felt aggressive. Then, when my post structural
friend started to sing, I drew a blank.
As those of us who are often
distressed by dreams know, drawing a blank while dreaming is tantamount to a
day spent pacing around the question "I should of said" while reinterpreting
Jung with the question "what was I trying to remember." So I closed my eyes
determined that no dream of mine would end without a satisfactory
conclusion, which as a rule requires me to lop off the heads of my
antagonists before marching down the aisle toward a coffee pot. But
woe is me when the Tanager sings, his voice enters a synaptic cleft, grips
it with his little feet and he pecks away. I turned toward my enemies.
"There," I said. "That's your answer." And bowed gracefully into

Should government be in the business of taking care of you for free, or making sure you are free to take care of your business?
The Democratic Party is currently asserting that the Constitution of the United States of America is outdated and irrelevant. They claim that the necessities for survival are basic human rights, and a Constitution that doesn't guarantee them doesn't work.
I would not look to the U.S. Constitution if I were drafting a constitution in the year 2012…I might look at the constitution of South Africa. That was a deliberate attempt to have a fundamental instrument of government that embraced basic human rights…
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
President Obama, as chief spokesman for the Democratic Party, has always agreed with this mischaracterization of the purpose of our Constitution:
The [Warren] Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth, and of more basic issues such as political and economic justice in society…It didn't break free from the essential restraints that were placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution, at least as it's been interpreted. In the same way that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties, it says what the States can't do to you, it says what the Federal Government can't do to you, but it doesn't say what the Federal government or State government must do on your behalf.
Then Senator Barack Obama in 2001, emphases added
The Federalist Papers repeatedly explain that the very purpose of the American form of government is to ensure and defend the liberty and private property of all her citizens at home and abroad, as citizens acted in according to commercial self-interests around the world. The United States of America was established according to Adam Smith's principle that it was the activity of self-interest engaged in commerce that created national wealth rather than preservation of natural products.*
The brilliance of our Constitution is that it was written to not only:
- limit the power and authority of government to interfere with the most basic and necessary of all human rights, self-interest; but to
- determine that our government and even ambassadors to foreign nations were to be our champions in our pursuit of commercial self-interest. [Federalist 4]
Self-interest should be considered fundamental to any concept of human rights. If you must ask for permission to breathe, to take in nourishment, to seek shelter and protection, to make an honest living, you have no rights.
Self-interest knows that we must protect the freedom to suffer the consequences of bad decisions.
Individual growth comes through failing and learning by trial-and-error. A country's growth and prosperity comes from all capable citizens doing so. A government pretending to shelter people from their failures may as well proclaim national weight loss by redefining how heavy a pound is.
Self-interest is suspicious of those that make themselves advocates of your self-interest.
Strongly suspect the motive of anyone who offers or implies unsolicited responsibility for your self-interest. Traditional fairy tales are full of warnings about trusting strangers who promise to care more for the unsuspecting than they could possibly care for themselves.
Be especially suspicious of a President or Supreme Court Judge who repudiates the very Constitution that acknowledges they have no authority in decisions regarding your self-interest, in order that they become eligible as arbiters of your self-interest. Note that in order to attain these positions of power, these authority figures swore an allegiance to that very Constitution they now undermine. At best such duplicity is the stuff of carnival sideshow hucksters; at worst, vile examples of those that prey upon fellow human beings.
It is your responsibility to protect your self-interest. If you don't it will be taken from you.
Liberty requires the individual be a zealous defender of his own self-interest. Self-interest determines your level of personal accountability and responsibility to yourself. Unfortunately, our post modern worldview has separated our minds from considering such foundational truths. "Liberty", they say, "is the absence of accountability and responsibility," slyly opening the door of opportunity for these frauds of "new and improved human rights." All con men are astute students of our Human nature because our own greed and lust is the bait of every con man's trap.
Political con men bait their trap with the lust of all men, which is to make others pay for all that we want or think we deserve. In the process, they get you to willingly abdicate our Creator-endowed right of self-interest in exchange for a promise from a professional liar, now tyrant.
Respecting the Constitution = respecting your self-interest.
Exercise your self-interest when selecting a candidate by choosing a candidate who respects the Constitution of the United States of America. Only support a candidate that recognizes that after the election it becomes his duty to consider whether pending legislation will
- ensure and defend your liberty,
- your self-interest,
- your private property, and
- pursuit of commercial self-interest before every vote.
It is in your own self-interest.
* "The prosperity of commerce is now perceived and acknowledged by all enlightened statesmen to be the most useful as well as the most productive source of national wealth, and has accordingly become a primary object of their political cares." [Federalist 12 – Hamilton]

For the first time, Hot Springs Village's general manager will serve on the executive board of the Hot Springs Metro Partnership, Hot Springs Village Property Owners' Association governmental affairs committee chair Jerry Yeric said.
General manager David Twiggs, who assumed his duties June 10, was introduced at the Metro board's June meeting by Tom Arwood. Twiggs met many key people in Hot Springs, including its city manager, state representatives, senator and others, Yeric told the GAC Friday.
Twiggs gave his vision for the Village's future and its participation in the Hot Springs area. Yeric said the board was impressed and voted Twiggs in at the meeting's conclusion. He said it will be an asset having Twiggs on the board.
In other business, Lu Otto said the demographics project he chairs is concluding its "discovery phase" and will now study ways to improve the quality of data used in the Village. "The Village uses two kinds of basic demographic data, Census and self-generated data. Our goal is to design strategies for improving both," Otto said.
Examples of Village-generated data could include attitudes and opinions. "For example, suppose the board wanted to know whether Village school-aged children would prefer a soccer field or basketball courts with 8-foot rims," he said.
Later in the meeting he said the Village should consider the needs of its growing population of school-age children when making decisions.
The committee meets in mid-July, and Otto expects to have a more comprehensive report next month.
Paul Pool's highway report said it now appears Danville Road can remain open during construction of a replacement box culvert.
Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department officials now say the new culvert will be far enough from the existing bridge that closure probably will not be necessary. There will be delays when the connections are made back to the existing road.
The Danville Road project is scheduled for a July letting.
New water-supply alternative sources under consideration for Hot Springs are DeGray Lake and Lake Ouachita, Gerald Allen's report said.
Including the cost of water intake, pipeline and treatment plant, DeGray's initial cost would be $10 million less, at $60 million vs. $70 million. Also, DeGray could provide water by 2016-17, while Ouachita's would take a year longer to develop.
Since 2009, the city has spent $26 million in wastewater collection system improvements aimed at eliminating "dry weather" overflows. An addition $100 million is needed to comply with a 2009 consent order issued by the federal Environmental Protection Agency.
It requires the elimination of "wet weather" overflows by 2017.
Jim Zahnd said Saline County spent an estimated $2.5 million to remove debris from the Christmas 2012 winter storm. Zahnd previously estimated a half million dollars would be expended in the Village, but Saline County actually spent about $700,000 here.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency will pay most of the cost, with Saline County paying 12.5 percent.
The partnership with the county was beneficial. "Had it not worked out that way, it would have been an expense to the Village, because we never would have gotten FEMA support directly," Zahnd said.
Less than a month after it unveiled its economic development strategic plan, the Saline County Economic Development Corporation has submitted a proposal to the Arkansas Department of Veterans' Affairs for locating the department's proposed new long-term-care facility on 27 acres of the 500-acre campus of the Arkansas Health Center in Haskell
The center is near Interstate 30's exit 114 in Benton. The proposed site is some 20 miles from the east gate, via Highway 198 and U.S. Highway 70. The proposal included statements of support from community leaders throughout the county, including some in the Village, Zahnd said.
Jim Harlow said the state will spend $25,000 to develop a retirement/relocation website portal.
He was scheduled to speak to the Saline County economic board yesterday about retirement/relocation.
Jan Neilson reported on various Hot Springs items:
• Hot Springs city manager David Watkins traveled to U.S. Army Corps of Engineers officials in Vicksburg, Miss., to support of a water allocation for Lake Ouachita water.
• Hot Springs Advertising and Promotion Commission is finalizing a master plan for a sports complex. It hopes to take it to voters in March 2014.
• Hot Springs is conducting a neighborhood sweep focusing on alleged code violations. Door-to-door visits are made in the first week to notify residents of violations. The second week the city picks up debris from resident property clean up. The final week citations are issued for non-compliance.
• The city recycling center accepts glass as well as other recyclables and is open to county residents.
• Plans are moving forward for the construction of a skate park adjacent to the Hot Springs Recycling center downtown.
• An agreement has been reached with the state for building Runyon Street Bridge, adjacent to the recycling center.
Larry Griffin updated the committee on progress on the Garland County jail construction.
POA director Frank Leeming said RealtyTrac recently rated the Village third on its list of 15 top American communities for real-estate investing, based on price appreciation and capitalization rates.
The study also measured cost of living, property appreciation rates, seasonal temperatures and the median sales price of homes. "It was really some good news," Leeming said.
GAC members met in Jessieville School District's new performing arts center, and also toured the building.
The GAC will meet at 8 a.m. Aug. 9 in the FL School District administration building on Highway 7.

Schleifer, E. (2005). Long and short-term effects of video games on impulsive responses in boys: An alternative to content-based research. Dissertation Abstracts International: Section B: The Sciences and Engineering, Vol 66(5-B), 2005. pp. 2862. Retrieved July 16, 2009, from PsycINFO database.
Prior research in the field of video games has focused primarily on how violent content affects aggressive behavior. The current study was designed to show that game-users' ability to press a button and elicit an immediate and fixed response from the game will have an effect on impulsive reactions outside the gaming environment. Forty boys, age ten to fourteen, were given two questionnaires that gathered information regarding their video gaming habits (past and present) and their propensity for disinhibition or impulsivity in certain situations as measured by the Behavioral Activation System (BAS) Sensitivity Scale (Carver & White, 1994). Before and after engaging in a reward-based activity (playing video games vs. shooting baskets for a prize), participants were asked to perform a Time Perception Task as a measure of cognitive impulsivity. There were no significant differences between the experimental conditions. Participants who reported playing more video games per day, however, showed greater cognitive impulsivity following cessation of the reward-based activity regardless of which condition they were in. Results concerning the BAS Sensitivity Scale yielded findings in two of the three sub-scales of this measure. Participants who reported playing more video games per day reported a more impulsive, persistent pursuit of desired goals (Drive scale). Results also indicated that these same participants tended to respond more positively to the occurrence and anticipation of rewards (Reward Responsiveness scale). When viewed collectively, these findings indicate some support for the model proposed in this study, which attempted to link video game play with Patterson and Newman's (1993) theory of disinhibition. Also discussed are possible applications of the proposed model for future studies correlating high video game play and high BAS ratings with affect regulation, capacity for fantasy/imagination, clinical populations (ADHD, ODD, and Bi-polar), agency/locus of control, academics, and gender differences.

As promised in the lecture, here are some tools you can play around with to monitor online conversations and analyze sentiment for free:
- Twitter search – type in Clemson and see what people are saying about your university.
(here's a bonus search for you 🙂 You can also use search to keep track of conversations on twitter. For example, PR practitioners engage in a weekly conversation they mark #pr20chat. By searching for #pr20chat you can follow the conversation, and find PR practitioners to follow on twitter).
- See an example of monitoring Twitter with detailed instructions from Chris Brogan
- Twendz is a fun tool – type in a search term, wait for the tweets to load and watch the instant sentiment analysis on the left side. The interface is not very precise and scientific, but it gives you an idea of what can be done with more expensive software.
- Here's a blog post describing a few other tools for monitoring twitter conversations
- The easy way to monitor blog conversations for free is to use a search engine that searches only blogs – for example, Google Blog Search. (Similarly, you can use Google News to search for news. Clemson has been in the news lately, check it out.)
- Google Alerts – You can very easily set up an alert and Google will send you an e-mail every time a certain topic of your choice (say, Clemson) is mentioned in the news. This can also be delivered to your RSS feed reader instead of your e-mail. You can use Google Alerts to monitor news, blogs, group discussions, even online videos. Awesome tool – and it's FREE!
- Technorati – is another famous blog search and indexing service. Try searching the blogoshpere using Google Blog Search and then Technorati, using the same search term (i.e. Clemson). Note if the search results are different, and if so, how.
If you want to learn more about PR measurement and evaluation:
- subscribe to Katie Paine's Measurement Blog – also check out the blogs she links to from her blogroll (on the left side)
- read Katie Paine's book Measuring Public Relationships

Lies that kill our soul, and sometimes our bodies
Is this story about a transgender identity, because there is no such thing….there's no sex but still either M or F on identifying documents. Is this story about allowing men into women's restrooms, because men are still required to use the men's rooms. Is this story about sex offenders, because sex offenders, many of which are now female, have no restroom prohibitions. This story is as deadly as it sounds, because making millions believe that the innocent are vicious criminals on the prey to rape or sexually offend even children….it causes some elected county sheriffs, politicians, even preachers to advocate for violence-as-self-defense against an entire group of trans children and adults who just want to pee. Stories such as these that slander an entire swath of people breaking no laws should be prosecutable as slander. Disagreement is an American expression of freedom; slander never is.

SMITHSBURG — While Dylan Bryce is the lightest wrestler in Smithsburg's varsity lineup, his absence weighed heavily Wednesday night in the Leopards' tri-match with Frankfort and Fort Hill.
Bryce, a freshman, who began the night with a 9-4 season record, suffered a back injury in Smithsburg's 48-27 victory over Frankfort, forcing the Leopards to forfeit in the 106-pound weight class in a 46-34 loss to Fort Hill.
"That's the match, a 12-point swing," Smithsburg coach Joe Dietrich said.
Senior Kian Roberts did his part to carry the load for the Leopards, going 2-0 with a pair of first-period pins at 132.
"That put our team down a little bit," said Roberts of Bryce's injury. "He's one of our better wrestlers. And I don't know how to describe it, he's like our team mascot. (Bryce getting injured) fired us all up. That really made me want to go out there and beat my kid."
Ryan Milligan, who also went 2-0 for Smithsburg, also seemed to be fired up after Bryce went down. He trailed Frankfort's Derek George 8-7 in their bout at 120, before scoring a takedown and three-point nearfall in the closing moments to prevail 12-8.
"That was huge, a super comeback," Dietrich said.
With the split, the Leopards, who are still without standout middleweight Dillan Harbaugh (shoulder injury), are an even 4-4 this season.
"We just can't seem to dodge the injury plague," Dietrich said. "With the injuries and the young kids who are having to wrestle varsity, we're doing OK."
Senior Chase Scott (160) and junior Travis Leopold (182) also each went 2-0 for Smithsburg on Wednesday. Leopold recorded the quickest fall of the night, pinning Fort Hill's Leroy Miller in 19 seconds, while Scott rolled with a technical fall against Frankfort and a major decision against Fort Hill to improve to 18-0 on the season.
"I was a little disappointed I didn't get pins, but I guess I just have to be glad that I won," Scott said. "I'm glad to be undefeated. I just hope to stay that way as long as possible."
Scott, a captain, was hopeful the rebuilding Leopards would get the team sweep Wednesday.
"We did the best that we could," he said. "But we have a lot of new wrestlers. It's hard to win while trying to teach that many kids. But we're doing good with what we have."
In the other match, Fort Hill defeated Frankfort 51-30 to improve to 11-11. Frankfort dropped to 9-20.

When you are experiencing low back pain, your first instinct may be to crawl into bed. Until a few decades ago, you doctor probably would have told you to do exactly that.
But the tide has turned on our understanding of what is best for tackling back pain, and now the consensus is this: When you have back pain, you should limit or avoid bed rest.
What research says about bed rest for low back pain
Clinical practice guidelines from the American College of Physicians (ACP) and the American Pain Society (APS) say that patients with low back pain should be advised to remain active. This is categorized by the ACP and APS as a "strong" recommendation.
Research to support this recommendation exists, but it's not very robust. One survey of 10 studies, all of which compared activity versus rest for low back pain patients, found moderate support for small pain decreases in those who remained active.2 Another study of Japanese workers with acute low back pain found that those assigned to the rest group were more likely to have recurring or chronic back pain, compared with the active group. 3 More research is needed to verify these results.
Why activity is better than rest
When you understand how the body works, it makes sense that activity would be better than inactivity to promote healing. From our bones to our soft tissues, our body needs movement and activity to stay in its best condition.
Lack of activity can have several negative effects:
- Muscles can grow stiff and weaken
- Soft tissues like ligaments and tendons can lose their flexibility and become more vulnerable to injury
- The intervertebral discs, which hold fluid like a sponge, can lose nutrients and become dried out and inflexible
Without exercise, back pain can be prolonged and even increase, which further discourages activity. In addition, bed rest can take a psychological toll on people, increasing the likelihood of depression and suffering.
Fortunately, all of this can be avoided by being active as soon as you're able when back pain strikes. When pain in severe, your doctor may advise you to spend a day or two resting, but more than that should be avoided, if possible.
How to keep moving despite back pain
The best way to stay active even when back pain is present is this 3-prong approach:
- Activities that strengthen your core
- Stretches that maintain flexibility
- Low-impact aerobic exercise
It's important to talk with your doctor or physical therapist before starting a new exercise program, especially if you're having an acute back pain episode. If you experience sharp or sudden pain while exercising, stop right away and consult your doctor.
Call 636-916-0660 and talk to Karen or Rachel about scheduling your New Patient Appointment. We specialize in fast pain relief by utilizing chiropractic adjustments, decompression and massage. We are located in St. Charles, MO and are conveniently located off of Hwy 70 and 94.

It was Aug 2011. I was in Art of Living Bangalore Ashram to do the Advanced Meditation Program with Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar ji. The program was wonderful making me feel so serene & deep like never before. I was floating above the ground happy and fully in love with the Divine. The night before I had to leave the Ashram was filled with tears of sadness at having to go away so soon from this beautiful place.
During those few days, I met Sri Sri many times. At every glimpse of Sri Sri, time took a back seat, heart beat increased & mind was filled with immense joy. I never felt like asking any question to him. But there was a void inside. Amid such huge crowd He seemed so far away from me. I wondered does He even know me; am I of any significance to Him?
On the last day of my stay at Ashram, I was busy packing my bags. It was around 12 noon, Suddenly I got a call from one of my ashram friends that Gurudev would be coming in a few minutes to Vishalakshi Mantap to personally meet participants of another program. (Vishalakshi Mantap, the beautifully crafted mediation centre, is the focal point of the Art of Living Bangalore Ashram where all the spiritual enthusiasts come together to attend various yoga and meditation programs).
My program was over & I had already met Sri Sri. So I hesitated to go, but my friend insisted that I should come and luckily I obliged!.
As I sat in one corner of Vishalakshi Mantap with bated breath, I started to wonder, 'Do I really need to be here'? In no time, one of the participants came & gave a beautifully garlanded red rose to me to give it to Sri Sri. I could never give a flower to Gurudev in all these years. Many times I would take a flower to give HIM & then keep it in my bag. It is said that one should not meet his/her Guru empty handed, but I couldn't find anything good enough to offer to HIM.
But that moment was different. I felt acknowledged and tears of gratitude came up. Finally, Gurudev made a grand entry, taking off his dark glasses in full style & making the whole crowd go crazy. He started giving darshan to every participant one by one. Finally my turn came. I offered the flower to HIM. He took it, smiled at me & then asked 'Happy?' I nodded without saying anything. Then came, "What is your name?" My voice almost choked, somehow I managed to reply. He kept smiling & blessed me a couple of more times with the flower.
This was the first time I had spoken to my Master. Words cannot express how happy I was. Those few words from HIM meant the entire world to me. I was on top of the world. As He walked away every one of my problems washed away completely.
After Darshan, Gurudev took a meditation for all of us. In the entire Advanced Meditation Program that I had just completed, I did not have such a blissful meditation as this one. There was nothing left inside me. I was totally hollow and empty. Since then, never have I felt myself away from Gurudev. He is inside Me as ME..
Jai Guru Dev!

Many times I realised it's an advantage to live in the heart of Europe, since we have access to many beautiful countries from here. One of my favourite "neighbour" destinations is definitely Austria.. actually we visit it with my friends quite often. Just in 5 hours you can reach truly beautiful mountain resort with a lot of photogenic places. In this blogpost I would like to mention few of them alongside with some tips to possibly inspire you for your weekend trip. :)
The last time I visited Austria was in the middle of January together with a group of friends from Instagram. We went there for a road trip to visit some of our favourites yet already discovered places.. and actually it was so much different to see all those destinations we know covered with a big amount of snow. To be honest, I'm not a winter person (actually I kind of hate moody, grey and cold winter in Prague), but it definitely feels different to be in the mountains with all of that snow around.
Our road trip took 3 days (we left Prague on Thursday at night and got back on Sunday in the evening) and we managed to visit more than 3 different areas despite quite bad weather conditions. Yeah, it was snowing more than we expected and we didn't have proper car gear with us. Still we made it to most of the destinations we had on our list.
Famous Traunsee was one of the first ones. If you go to Austria this place is a must.. and not just because of this iconic water castle, but also because of all the beautiful mountains around. I just wish we had better weather and light conditions there to make our photos look better. Unfortunately if the morning is too grey, that's what you get. :)
Another beautiful and very famous Instagram spot is Maria Gern located close to the boarder of Germany and Austria. It's actually a small village with a pretty church (yeah, again), where you can enjoy another impressive panoramic view of the mountains around. I must admit that it truly looks like a fairytale scene, especially now in winter.
Of course we couldn't leave this part of Austria (close to Salzburg) without visiting (once again) amazing Hallstatt. However, on the way there there's actually one hidden gem that shouldn't be missed either. Gosausee - a mountain lake situated near the village Gosau (what a surprise!) - offers one of the best views, since it's all surrounded by majestic mountain peaks.
The last destination of our short trip was, as I already said, Hallstatt. I'm pretty sure that almost everyone has already heard something about it. It's that kind of place all the tourists in the world want to visit.. and yeah, you will meet tons of them there. People with cameras trying to take as many photos as they can, families having some kind of vacation there and huge groups of excited tourists. If you go there with intention to take great photos it's always better to get there early in the morning - then you probably avoid most of the crowds. :)
Also, people quite often ask me where to find accommodation in Hallstatt or where to go for lunch, coffee or something like that. That's always very hard to respond for me. I usually prefer to stay some place other than Hallstatt, since everything is very expensive there. I would recommend to look for something close to Gosau (as I mentioned above), because it takes like 20 minutes to get there from Hallstatt. When it comes to food, it's also pretty difficult, because there are many hotels or touristic restaurants where you pay quite a lot for an average meal. When we were there with my friends we tried one pizza bar that didn't look so bad, on the other hand, we paid like 10 euros for one frozen pizza. ;) I can't really recommend it either..
Anyway, beside the expensive food and accommodation, Hallstatt is totally worth visiting both in winter and summer. I was lucky enough to see it this year all covered with snow; it was like a dream that came true. Enjoy the rest of my photos and if you want to know something more you can text me anytime. :)

Europa League – City ease past Timisoara
Manchester City eased into the Europa League group stage with a comfortable 2-0 victory over Timisoara at the City of Manchester Stadium on Thursday.
The home side rarely moved out of second gear in a lacklustre encounter, in which City's Romanian visitors struggled to provide any threat on Joe Hart's goal.
Shaun Wright-Phillips and Dedryck Boyata scored the winning goals in the 43rd and 59th minutes, though Emmanuel Adebayor and Jo wasted clear-cut chances to make the margin of victory even more comfortable for City.
Roberto Mancini made five changes from City's 1-0 first-leg victory in Romania, with blockbuster summer signing Yaya Toure and captain Carlos Tevez both starting on the bench.
Brazilian striker Jo was, instead, given a chance to fight for his place in Manchester City's ever-expanding squad, and promising 19-year-old defender Dedryck Boyata was handed his first start of the season alongside Vincent Kompany at centre-back.
The home side dominated possession in the first half, but lacked any sort of cutting edge in front of goal, with Timisoara intent on sitting back and soaking up the pressure.
The first chance of the half fell to Jo on the half-hour mark, but the Brazilian's header failed to beat Costel Pantilimon after David Silva's pinpoint cross.
With the clock ticking ever closer to half-time, City finally showed their class with just two minutes left to play.
Patrick Vieira – starting in place of Yaya Toure in the centre of City's midfield – split Timisoara's centre-backs with a perfect through ball to Wright-Phillips, who slammed a right foot shot inside Pantilimon's right post with his first touch.
With their Romanian visitors needing two goals to advance, City emerged at half time looking far more relaxed on the ball, and with a freedom of expression made possible by the two-goal cushion.
With 14 minutes played in the half, Boyata scored his first senior goal for City with a text-book defender's goal – rising highest at the far post to head home a quality delivery from Silva's left boot.
The goal almost set off a City goal-frenzy, with Adebayor missing an open goal a minute later after some hapless defending from Ovidiu Burca, and Jo again sending a free header off target just seconds later.
They proved to be the last real chances of the match, with City happy to play for possession, and Vladimir Petrovic's Timisoara seemingly desperate for the final whistle.
The draw for the Europa League group stages takes place at 12pm on Friday, LIVE on British Eurosport and Eurosport HD.

Meet the 2013 Annual Scientific Symposium Awardees
One of the highlights of the two-day Annual Scientific Review and Symposium was the bestowing of several awards.
Here are this year's awardees…
(Left) Ethan Dmitrovsky, M.D. At the Symposium, Dr. Waxman surprised Dr. Dmitrovsky by awarding him with the Distinguished Leadership Award in recognition of his dedication to science and to the SWCRF.
Dr. Dmitrovsky has served with distinction as an Associate Director of our Foundation. He is a physician-scientist and American Cancer Society Clinical Research Professor. He chairs the Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth. Dr. Dmitrovsky's translational research has made substantial contributions to our understanding of how to use retinoic acid and its derivatives in the treatment of leukemia, lung and other cancers. These are areas in which our Foundation has provided leadership.
Service to the cancer research community is central to his career. For instance, he serves as Chair of the Board of Scientific Counselors at the National Cancer Institute for Clinical Sciences and Epidemiology. He will continue to build on his record of service in a new position. This is as Provost and Executive Vice President at the MD Anderson Cancer Center. Because of this major responsibility, Dr. Dmitrovsky will step down as our Associate Director. The good news is that we continue to benefit from the outstanding service of Jonathan Licht, MD, who also is our Associate Director. Dr. Dmitrovsky will keep his close ties with our Foundation in the future as a member of our Institute without Walls.
(Center) Ronald M. Evans, Ph.D., received the first Lifetime Achievement Award in Science, an award given to a scientist whose work has been at the forefront of establishing new concepts that advance our understanding of cellular processes. Dr. Evans is Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator, Professor and Director of the Gene Expression Laboratory and March of Dimes Chair in Developmental and Molecular Biology at The Salk Institute for Biological Studies. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Medicine. He has received the Lasker Award, the General Motors Cancer Research Foundation Alfred P. Sloan Medal and many other recognitions. Internationally recognized for his seminal discoveries of hormone action, including the discovery of the retinoid receptors, Dr. Evans has done ground-breaking work that has formed the basis for clinical discoveries made in the successful treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia, an area in which our Foundation has made major contributions.
(Right) Madison Edens, who accepted the Spirit of Collaboration Award on behalf of her father, Mr. Wesley R. Edens, Co-Founder, Principal and Co-Chairman of the Board of Directors, Fortress Investment Group. This award is given annually to an individual who has truly taken a lead in humanistic causes. In addition to advising and supporting the SWCRF, Mr. Edens has had global impact—from alleviating suffering after the Haiti earthquake, creating programs that provide HIV treatment and prevention and building a hospital in a remote area of Africa.

April 2017 Western Culture Newsletter: Easter is about Jesus Christ
Culture Wars
Jesus is the Living Christ, the immortal Son of God. He is the great King Immanuel, who stands today on the right hand of His Father. He is the light, the life, and the hope of the world.
Dear Friends,
Welcome to Western Culture Dinner Topics!
THE JUDEO-CHRISTIAN WAY OF LIFE IS VANISHING. Easter used to be an integral part of American life—attendance at church on Easter Sunday, Easter sunrise services, and a week-long break from school designated as Easter vacation. Many stores are politically correct, having purged all vestiges of the true and traditional meaning of Easter. Now, Christ and Easter are banished, replaced by "Spring Break", and everywhere children expect another sugar overload, just like Halloween.
Our mission here is to preserve and protect the Judeo-Christian culture, that precious way of life—to keep it alive for our children and grandchildren. Can we prevent the rising generation from becoming the Generation" lost"? If we do not tell them about our cherished values, they will never know. They need you, their parents, to pass on the values that are the only way to true happiness.
Pass on Judeo-Christian values to your children with this engaging and wholesome classic
Teach them about the Atonement of Jesus Christ, so that they can feel "encircled in His gentle arms." This is best explained in a quote from Dieter F. Uchtdorf:
The Sacrifice of the Son of God
Each year at this time we commemorate and ponder the sacrifice Jesus Christ made for all mankind.
What the Savior did from Gethsemane to Golgotha on our behalf is beyond my ability to grasp. He took upon Himself the burden of our sins and paid an eternal and binding ransom not only for Adam's original transgression but also for the sins and transgressions of the billions upon billions of souls who have ever lived. This eternal, sacred sacrifice caused "even God, the greatest of all, to tremble because of pain, and to bleed at every pore, and to suffer both body and spirit" (D&C 19:18).
He suffered for me.
He suffered for you.
My soul overflows with gratitude when I contemplate the precious meaning of this sacrifice. It humbles me to know that all who accept this gift and incline their hearts to Him can be forgiven and cleansed of their sins, no matter how dark their blemish or how oppressive their burden.
We can be made spotless and pure once again. We can be redeemed by the eternal sacrifice of our beloved Savior.
Easter comes in the second week of April this year, but it is not something to think about one day per year, rather it is the essence of the Gospel, the very substance of our lives, the only key to true happiness.
So remember, Easter is not just a holiday—it's a way of Life!
Thanks for visiting. Come often; Stay Late.

So from now on, we are sharpening the focus of Western Culture Dinner Topics on what matters most— to continually define and defend Judeo-Christian values, more about Israel, our spiritual brother in the house of Israel, and to know our enemy, so as not to be deceived.
Battered but not beaten, Western Culture wins the day!
Stronger than ever, Western Culture's here to stay!
Thanks for visiting. Come often, stay late.

Easter is about Jesus Christ Theme Quotes
He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. ~Matthew 28:6
For God so loved the world, he gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. ~John 3:16
"As in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive." (1 Cor. 15:22.)
"No other single influence has had so great an impact on this earth as the life of Jesus the Christ." ~Ezra Taft Benson
The Lord Made Repentance Possible; Lay Your Burdens at His Feet. ~Boyd K. Packer
He who suffered so selflessly for us in the garden and on the cross will not leave us comfortless now. He will strengthen, encourage, and bless us. He will encircle us in His gentle arms. ~Dieter F. Uchtdorf
I marvel that he would descend from his throne divine
To rescue a soul so rebellious and proud as mine,
That he should extend his great love unto such as I,
Sufficient to own, to redeem, and to justify.
I think of his hands pierced and bleeding to pay the debt!
Such mercy, such love, and devotion can I forget?
No, no, I will praise and adore at the mercy seat,
Until at the glorified throne I kneel at his feet. ~ Charles H. Gabriel
For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue confess to God. ~Romans 14:11
We can turn to Him . . .because He understands. He understands the struggle, and He also understands how to win the struggle . . . The power of His Atonement can erase the effects of sin in us. When we repent, His atoning grace justifies and cleanses us. It is as if we had not succumbed, as if we had not yielded to temptation. As we endeavor day by day and week by week to follow the path of Christ, our spirit asserts its preeminence, the battle within subsides, and temptations cease to trouble. ~D. Todd Christofferson
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise…but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. ~2Peter 3:9
Stress Relief Tip: Look to Christ
Gordon B. Hinckley
We know not what lies ahead of us. We know not what the coming days may bring. We live in a world of uncertainty. For some, there will be great accomplishment. For others, disappointment. For some, much of rejoicing and gladness, good health, and gracious living. For others, perhaps sickness and a measure of sorrow. We do not know.
But one thing we do know. Like the polar star in the heavens, regardless of what the future holds, there stands the Redeemer of the world, the Son of God, certain and sure as the anchor or our immortal lives. He is the rock of our salvation, our strength, our comfort, the very focus of our faith.
In sunshine and in shadow we look to Him, and He is there to assure and smile upon us.
I know that my Redeemer lives,
Triumphant Savior, Son of God,
Victorious over pain and death,
My King, my Leader, and my Lord.
He lives, my one sure rock of faith,
The one bright hope of men on earth,
The beacon to a better way,
The light beyond the veil of death.
Oh, give me thy sweet Spirit still,
The peace that comes alone from thee,
The faith to walk the lonely road
That leads to thine eternity.

1. Let Us Educate Ourselves
Start your free Constitution 101 course today.
The U.S. Constitution is the key to securing liberty for all Americans — yet very few know exactly what it says, and what freedoms it protects. Hillsdale College is dedicating this year to educating millions of Americans about this critical document. That's why the College is offering its most popular course, "Constitution 101" for free, when you sign up now, and receive first lesson by email.
2. Home Education—Let's Teach our Children!
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same."–Ronald Reagan
Pass on Judeo-Christian values to your children with this engaging and wholesome classic
Seeing the widespread injury done in any given week, (many incidents go unreported), stay aware of important news and insights at Epicworld Dinner Topics.
Traditional Bible-believing parents may have to consider withdrawing their children from public schools to protect your family spiritually and financially from the rising tide of persecution and ruinous lawsuits by anti-Christian fascists.
If it is not possible for you to home school, try to teach your children Judeo-Christian values at home. The easiest way to do this is to tell stories and discuss principles at the family dinner table. I hope these dinner topics help you with this vital effort. Just don't give up! Our precious children are worth fighting for!
Learn the Key to Survival in a Difficult World
3. Study the U.S. Constitution!
It is the last remaining safeguard of our precious freedoms! A good way to do this is to study the monthly Constitution series from The 5,000 Year Leap. To access this series of posts, type US Constitution Series in this site's search bar. Also, look for posts that refer to the Constitution in current events.

It has been a long time since my last post. Life has been a whirlwind lately. It is hard to believe that it is almost May! May is a big month for our family as Ian and my 2nd son will be born. We plan to name him Noah Russell Johnson. There is a link to his blog with some ultrasound pics on the "Links" section of Isaac's Blog. We are very excited and I am ready to be a mom for the second time. Plus it will be nice to be able to sleep on my stomach again. Even better than that, Isaac will have a playmate! We've been trying to expose him to as many young babies as possible and teaching him to be gentle with babies and he seems to be doing well. We have a doll baby we used to get our dogs ready for Isaac and now we are using her to get Isaac ready for Noah! The baby is "sleeping" in the baby's crib and Isaac likes to go in the room after he tells me the baby is sleeping. He will then sit down on the chair and want to hold the baby. He will point out the baby's hands, nose, eyes and toes and then we put the baby back to sleep. I think he is going to be a great big brother!
In other news, we went to a different church last Sunday. The church we currently go to has no deaf ministry, but this new one is amazing! They have a large number of deaf members and other deaf attenders. This was Ian and my first time really being around other deaf adults and we were kind of nervous. We didn't know how people would react to Isaac's implant and our sign skills aren't much more advanced than Isaac's. I was pleasantly surprised though. They had an interpreter for the songs and a different interpreter for the message. It was so beautiful to watch the words to the music being signed. Ian and I actually picked out a few words in the interpretation. It was more difficult because they go so fast! After the service I spoke to a deaf woman who had a hearing daughter who was Isaac's age. It was so awesome! So many people were amazed by Isaac's signing ability. It doesn't hurt that he is adorable too. What I liked most about the church was that once Ian and I started signing to Isaac, a bunch of people came over to talk to us. There were even a lot of hearing people (kids too) that came up to us and asked us if we were deaf. This is what we want for Isaac. Even though he has a cochlear implant, we want him to know he is deaf and to be proud of it. He is such an outgoing child and we want him to thrive. We want him to see other people signing and hear people speaking. Deaf culture is so amazing and I think that all the negativity involving the cochlear implant is because many hearing parents don't encourage signing in their deaf children. I am not so concerned with Isaac acquiring language that is equal to his peers than he be a happy and well adjusted child. He is so smart that I know he will catch up eventually. Right now we are just so amazed that he is progressing like he is. We have no regrets about the implant.
This brings me to Isaac's verbal progress. Every day it amazes me how much he is picking up on. The first few words Isaac spoke, we really had to try to make him say them. We would make him look at our mouths and repeat the word over and over again and he would make attempts to say it. Now he seems to be picking up on words we say alot and starts saying them. His vocabulary is growing but we are trying to focus on his pronounciations of the words. Because although we understand what he is saying, some other people may not. Some examples of what we are working on are the endings of words. He will now say "up" and really spit out the "p". It is so cute. Another thing is he will say the word "book". He says "boo k". It is hilarious when he says "book" because he will separate the sounds like they are two words. He will even do this when his implant is off. At bedtime he has learned that he can climb out of his bed and onto the chair. He will turn on the lamp to the highest setting (it is a touch lamp) and sit there reading more books. He has even falllen asleep on the chair. But the funny thing is, when Ian or I go in to ask him what he is doing, he will say, "boo k!" and he can't even hear what he is saying! It is truly amazing.
Another story of note involves Isaac's little friend Eleah. Eleah comes and spends the day with us on Mondays and Wednesdays. I didn't have a sign name for her until now. I just would wake Isaac up in the morning and tell him in sign that he needed to wake up because "girl" was coming to play with him. Well, I noticed late last week that whenever Isaac sees a girl or woman, he will say, "Eeeeeaaah". I think I may have messed up here becuase he thinks that all girls are called Eleah! Now Eleah has a sign name and I really try to emphasize people's names when we see them. I think it is just amazing though because Isaac picked up on the fact that when I would speak to Eleah, I would use her name! Most of the other words Isaac says are ones we really worked with him to say. It is great to know he is picking up vocabulary just by listening and observing!

While driving home from work one evening several years ago, I approached an intersection that was controlled by a traffic light. The traffic light was red and I was preparing to make a right hand turn. There was a vehicle in front of me doing the same and a vehicle to his left, operated by an elderly man who was preparing to continue straight once the light turned green. In New York State the traffic laws allow you to make a right turn on a red signal after making a full stop and when it is safe to proceed. The vehicle in front of me stopped, then proceeded to make his right hand turn on the red signal. The elderly man, prompted by the movement to his right, assumed the light had turned green and proceeded forward into the intersection. To my horror, I observed a black Chevrolet coming from the right, traveling at high speed, enter the intersection and collide violently into the car driven by the elderly man. In an instant, I jumped out of my car and ran to the man's vehicle. There was smoke emanating from under the hood and he was conscious but confused, dazed and in pain. Fearing that the vehicle may erupt into flames I tried to get him out of the car but could not release the seatbelt hasp. Not wanting to waste time, I pulled out my Case pocket knife that my grandfather had given me before he passed away and sliced right through the seatbelt as if it was a hot knife through butter. I pulled him out of the wreck and carried him to the nearest curb and waited with him for EMS to arrive. Shortly after that, the engine compartment erupted into flames. Within 5 minutes however, the flames were extinguished by emergency workers who arrived on the scene and the elderly man was removed safely to the hospital. I'm happy to report that the elderly man, who I later learned was named Edward, fully recovered from his injuries that consisted of broken ribs and two broken wrists.
When I think back on that day I will never forget the look on Edwards face when I first approached him and I will also never forget how easily the Case knife that my grandfather had given to me, sliced through a stubborn seatbelt. Since then, my knife collection has grown significantly and when people ask why I carry a knife every day………… I tell them to ask Edward.

On "Saturday Night Live," Kate McKinnon reprised her role as President Donald Trump's counsel Kellyanne Conway on February 11. Inspired by the 1987 thriller, "Fatal Attraction," about a crazed woman who terrorizes a family member after a failed affair, McKinnon represents Conway wearing a flimsy nightgown and surprising CNN anchor Jake Tapper, played by SNL regular Beck Bennett, in his apartment after he rejected her availability for an interview on his show.
McKinnon first tries to seduce Bennett, saying "I wanna get mic'd. I wanna feel that hot, black mic pressed against my skin," but then issues threats while waving a knife at him. "Fine, I'll do something else. I'll do something really crazy," McKinnon-as-Conway warned. "What if I do a free commercial for Ivanka's shoes live on air?" Then she throws a knife at him, barely missing.
Inquiring minds re: #SNL: @jaketapper & I spoke this morning just before brunch time. No boiling bunnies on the menu.— Kellyanne Conway (@KellyannePolls) February 12, 2017
Visibly shaken, Bennett-as-Tapper agrees to offer McKinnon an appearance on Fareed Zakaria's show. McKinnon answers, "Fareed Zakaria? I have an office in the fucking White House." Bennett finally acquiesces and offers McKinnon a spot on his show again. McKinnon-as-Conway brags in the end, "I'm Kellyanne Conway and I always get my Kellyanne Con-way" but then falls out of Bennett's window. Surviving, however, she uses up just one of her lives in the fall.
The real Conway showed a sense of humor. Conway tweeted on February 12 that she and the real Jake Tapper had spoken that morning. She denied boiling bunny rabbits or having a grudge against Tapper. She tweeted that she and Tapper "spoke this morning just before brunch time," and "No boiling bunnies on the menu."
February 12, 2017
As for Tapper, he was laconic about the SNL skit, saying "Um."

Yesterday I spent a happy day in the Jungle. The sun was shining, the lovely Mustafa, a 21-year old Afghan from Welcome Restuarant showed me the little terrace he was building overlooking the lake, and the donation I had from you guys for the Kids Restuarant (which provides free food for the unaccompanied children in the camp), paid the big bill from the bread man.
We also joined Sikander (who runs the Kids Restaurant), on his journey to the hospital to visit a 15-year-old boy who had been shot in the neck by police. Sikander is my hero. A refugee himself, he has put everything into helping other refugees and provides a warm meal and a safe place for hundreds of under 18's in the camp every single day. They all get involved, peeling potatoes, sweeping the floor, and it's so lovely to see…
Then today, literally just now, we watched as a wall of riot police descended on the whole area and raided multiple restaurants including Welcome Restaurant and the Kids Restaurant. They bagged up donated food and arrested all the restaurant owners, including Sikander, who was taken away in a police van like a criminal.
SIKANDER IS FEEDING UNACCOMPANIED CHILDREN, he has given up his own life for the future of others, young victims of war…and he has just been arrested for doing so.
Together with other restaurant owners who are inspiringly making the best of a bad situation, attempting to create a life for themselves with displays of incredible entrepreneurial spirit, they were punished as if they had done something other than heroic.
We need to support the Kids Restaurant now more than ever. They still need to eat. You can support Sikander and his efforts here:
We will keep you updated as soon as we know more as we still don't understand WHY?
Thank you to our amazing Beatrice Lily Lorigan for this photo.
