Tomorrow morning at 9 in the am, I will be teaching two young boys in the ways of History and English.
Seriously, how did this happen?
Many years ago I used to think that I wanted to sculpt young minds in the ways of the world or some such nonsense. I felt I could help the lads and lasses get through the awkwardness that mixes childhood and teenagedom. It seemed like a great career. I could find meaning in that work. I could make a difference.
What a crock.
I haven't the slightest idea what I am doing, how the crap am I supposed to help others through?
The gig is a British woman is here with her two boys, who are somewhere in the preteen years. For whatever reason she wants the to be privately taught instead of going to school. Thus she's hiring private teachers, one of which will be me.
I got the gig through a friend. I am in the land of teachers, as my wife is one and that is her job here. That's all we know around here. It seems like I should have landed a small job as a street sweeper or typists or even creating english language tapes. Or something. Anything. But teaching.
What the crap?!?
I have to admit I am scared. I am nervous. I am freaking out. I have no idea how to teach kids. I don't know how to relate. I've forgotten any grammar I ever learned and I sure don't know my history.
I guess I'll just have to stay one page ahead of them. And figure out some way to present the material. Or something.
I'm going to have a panic attack now.
Edit: Sorry for my little freak out last night. It all came crashing down on me. Not only the teaching situation, but we're trying to sell our car and we finally found a buyer last night so I had to coordinate between two banks and continents and all of our accounts. Plus prior to finding out all of this, I had been listening to my iPod's playlist full of Ryan Adams, Gillian Welch and Lucinda Williams - and if you know those artists you know they can be full of heartache.
I met everyone this morning and it was fine (well I got lost first and wandered around the streets for fifteen minutes, but then it was fine.) She lives within walking distance which is great and her two boys are rambunctious but nice kids. The mom has all sorts of books to use for the classes so it shouldn't be difficult to work out lessons.
Tomorrow I will freak out a little more, but like all my culture shockings I will push through and come out the other side.

The fact that I was in China facing all these challenges would freak me out even if I DIDN'T have to start performing in an entirely new field of endeavor. But I have faith in you, Matt. Plus you are actually exactly the sort of person who will make a great teacher because you love to share what you know. There's no real secret to teacher other than that. Good luck!

Full Car Polish Service Glasgow
Autoglym Registered Operator Glasgow
Before we start we do a Full Tar Removal on the vehicle!
Our polish will give a high gloss finish and produces exceptional shine, It will removes light scratches, swirls, water spots and other imperfections and will give a clear coat, Our polish works on all colors and is blended with premium synthetic technology and will add durable protection against elements.
Advantages of Polishing
Your vehicles paint isn't smooth. It has texture to it, and if it has been washed with harsh detergents and dried improperly, it may even have minor surface scratches. The advantage to using polishes after washing is that because they are slightly abrasive polishes, they will remove oxidised paint, remove minor scratches, and smooth imperfections in the paint. Where wax lays down a layer of protection, polish removes material to reveal clean smooth paint. The smoother the paint, the shinier the surface.

Crafty Ribbons Challenge-Butterflies!!!
Good morning everyone! Its my turn to choose the challenge theme this week at Crafty Ribbons so of course I chose Butterflies! :-) I decided to make a canvas with the photos of butterflies I have taken this year :-) I printed the photos onto canvas printed paper in various sizes. I used a blank white canvas as my backdrop, the photos being printed on canvas gives the proper texture for this. I added a border of blue gingham ribbon in the centre and arranged my photos on the canvas. The ribbon comes from the Blueberry Jam Pot bundle of ribbons from Crafty Ribbons here.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Thank you for visiting and for all your lovely comments :-)

The Drift
I can just manage to keep my head above water.
If I thrash in terror it won't help; I'll go under for sure.
But to do nothing, I'm as good as dead.
I try to turn my arms so they glide through the current, cutting a line back and forth.
The energy I'm expending just to keep afloat feels like an enormous burden.
How much longer?
It's a mental game. Am I genuinely tired or is my mind just trying to convince me?
I bob upwards and my eyes find the shoreline.
At this point it looks more like a threat than an offer of salvation.
My mind wanders as I continue in full motion, going nowhere.
I reminisce on the feeling of solid ground under my feet, the wild air surrounding my body, no pressure pushing upon me endlessly.
In my mind's eye - I throw my arms high above my head. They move freely up to the sky.
I look to the sky now.
The sky is growing. It grows wide and shallow. Its blackness feels infectious.
A reminder that I contend with the world above me and the one below.
Neither feel part of me.
The moon rises and the frigid sea air forces me to take swollen breaths.
Each inhalation catches in my throat. I turn to cough, the sea kisses my lips and salt saturates my senses.
Intent on submitting to the tide.
I place the palms of my hands over each eye.
I lean into the empty void below. It opens to accept me and I'm engulfed.
The movement is at once disorientating and empowering.
I surrender to the sea.

readlink is a command that can be used on a softlink to find out the file to which it is actualy pointing to. For example if we have a file "temp" which is a softlink, we can run readlink of temp as follows
$ readlink temp test
This indicates that readlink is a softlink of the file temp. If we want the full path to the file "test" we can pass the option "-f"
$ readlink -f temp /home/user/Desktop/test
Thus we can find the full path to the file to which the softlink is pointing to .

In fact, Barbara Lee, who replaced Dellums as Oakland's congressional representative in 1998, thinks that the very middle-class values growing among California's black professionals may be critical to a Democratic resurgence in 2006. All the worst qualities of the old black urban machines -- cronyism, incompetence, gerrymandering -- are the hallmarks of George W. Bush's presidency and his supporters in the House of Representatives.
Just as a black middle class is turning its back on such politics locally, so the American middle class is wondering how long the country can tolerate such ineptitude, arrogance and fiscal irresponsibility. If leaders like Lee can link middle-class desires for good government with the basic aspirations of the urban poor, the great gulf between Reagan Democrats and the identity politics of the civil rights era may finally be resolved.
"The shock and outrage at what we saw in the wake of Hurricane Katrina was widely felt, and is strong evidence that people believe that we all have a stake in the kind of society we live in," Lee told Salon. "Coalition politics is about expanding opportunity, fostering prosperity, and valuing diversity. And that is a message that the majority of Americans believe in."
Such analysis is exactly why so many Democratic leaders have pinned their hopes for resurgence on Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois. In the last two years, the senator has emerged from the South Side of Chicago as an old-fashioned Truman Democrat, a foreign-policy hawk whose liberal domestic politics are focused on protecting and rebuilding the middle class. When he speaks of his vision for America, he doesn't dwell on the country's history of racism or exploitation, and he doesn't flog his personal journey as an African-American. Instead, he speaks of possibility and American exceptionalism.
Standing at the crossroads of history, Obama said during his stirring speech at last year's Democratic National Convention, "I believe we can give our middle class relief and provide working families with a road to opportunity. I believe we can provide jobs to the jobless, homes to the homeless, and reclaim young people in cities across America from violence and despair."
As the Republican leadership mortgages the country's future on debt, cronyism and religious divisiveness, Barack Obama may well become America's first truly national black politician.
What I see here on top of the changing culture in gerrymandered black districts, is a new ability to frame issues in a way that gives people a clear vision of the kinds of policies that are going to be pursued. The networks didn't carry Obama's DNC keynote address, perhaps this combined with Kerry's own inability to create any similar narrative lead to the confusion voters had with where Democrats stood on issues in 2004. Too many people didn't see Obama's inspiring and well framed DNC keynote address. Barbara Lee brings it back to essential core values, "expanding opportunity, fostering prosperity, and valuing diversity."

Transformation: Final Stage
Eleven years ago, I received my First Level Reiki certificate. This happened during another transformation, where I was coming out of a dangerous place in my mind; a time during which I had abused my mind, spirit and body. Reiki, and the community that came with it, cradled me through some difficult memories. I was twenty years old, with no direction, and no real idea about the big world around us. Really, I had little confidence in myself and my abilities. I thought that because spirituality was the only thing I understood fully, surely my career would follow this path. (What else could I be good at?) To be honest, I actually felt obligated to the art of Reiki to incorporate it into my life fully, in order to repay the Universe for the gifts I was given. Writing this now, I realize that there are no debts to the Universe, most certainly not for the gift of healing! I know now that my only obligation is to enjoy my life, sharing all the love that I can, and living mindfully.
So I started asking myself some questions: What is my passion? What do I love to do? The answer came to me so simply: I love to write and I love to bake. I saw a vision of myself in my own bakery, helping people, brightening their day with something sweet, sharing my love and my passion, giving a gift. There were other times that I tossed the idea of baking around, but I always had a million reasons why I wasn't good enough to pursue it. I can't believe I didn't figure it out sooner! In my early twenties, I worked at an amazing bakery called The Wildflour Bakery in Sechelt, on the Sunshine Coast. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was soaking up the techniques like a sponge. I would watch the bakers making cakes, tarts, bars, cookies and bread ~ fascinated. I would ask questions, watch how their hands moved, notice what the bread dough looked like under their hands, or how firmly they were pressing shortbread into pans. Even when I moved back to Squamish, working at a financial planner's office, there just happened to be a French pastry chef working across the street. I loved to go there, some weeks it was every day, to pick up something sweet. I remember longing to go into the kitchen to watch Alain perform his magic, but I never asked.
Baking has always been a passion. And now I am ready to pursue it fully … so I've opened a home-based business! I am already busy filling orders, and I have to say, I absolutely love it. I feel like I am doing exactly what I should be doing. Living my life.

Congratulations, Nicole! I'm so glad you discovered your passions...many people don't, you know. Like me, heh...I'm still searching for the one thing that will stir my blood. I am knowledgeable about many things, but I haven't narrowed down any that I want to pour myself into completely.ReplyDelete
Is your home-based business mail order as well? I'll bet your bakery will be very successful and very yummy!! I'm looking forward to some photos and posts about your creations.
You're not stuck anymore... kudos to you for your courage in moving forward and living your life!! :)

Hello Nicole,ReplyDelete
This is great news, I am so happy for you! I know you will have a successful business because you have your heart in it, that will take you places.
Living your life, baking for the love of it and for the love of people is a spiritual path. The great sages say, "Feed people." It is an established path to the divine.
Marion & Miruh: Both of your kind words have touched me. I highly value both of your opinions; I think you are both amazing, strong, spiritual women, and I admire you both.ReplyDelete
It has been a long journey through the past year and a half ... and your blogs have inspired me all along the way. I'm so lucky to have found you.
In short, Thank You.
Wonderful! I just recently read a novel (called The Girl Who Chased the Moon) where a main character bakes love into her cakes for others, and to call one in particular to her...food truly does carry our emotions and thoughts to others...those eating yours are lucky I am sure...ReplyDelete
Thank YOU, Nicole, for writing such thought-provoking posts...such fodder for thought helps ME along in my own journey!ReplyDelete
Have a happy and safe time on your trip to the Coast!! :)

Former President Lee Myung-bak's Brother Sentenced to Jail for Corruption
SEOUL, Jan. 13 (Yonhap) -- A Seoul court on Friday sentenced the elder brother of former President Lee Myung-bak to 15 months in jail in a corruption case involving South Korea's top steelmaker POSCO.
The Seoul Central District Court did not immediately detain Lee Sang-deuk, taking into account his age and health
Lee was indicted in late 2015 on charges that he helped three companies gain financially from transactions with POSCO in exchange for peddling influence to solve one of the steelmaker's key problems --- a height limitation on its factory buildings.
The court cleared the charges that he helped one of the three companies -- TM Tech., a small maintenance company owned by his close acquaintance -- secure financial gains from POSCO. But it found him guilty of the charges related to the other two companies.
Based on its not-guilty ruling on the charges related to TM Tech., the court then dismissed bribery charges against the steelmaker's former chief Chung Joon-yang.
The court, also, cleared Chung of the breach of trust charges, saying the evidence was insufficient to confirm his guilt.
Chung has been accused of buying a stake in local plant equipment maker, Sungjin Geotec Co., which was already insolvent at the time of purchase in 2010, causing more than 159 billion won (US$135 million) in losses for POSCO.

Paris Saint-Germain boss Laurent Blanc is looking to ignore Jose Mourinho ahead of his side's Champions League with Chelsea clash next week.
The French champions are seeking to reach the last four of the competition but face a daunting meeting with the Premier League leaders in the quarter-finals.
And, despite his respect for Mourinho's achievements throughout his career, Blanc says that big talk is a big part of the Portuguese's reportoire.
"Mourinho will talk and comment; that's how he functions," the PSG coach told a press conference.
"He's very clever and very professional. I have a lot of respect for him. He's a great coach who has won nearly everything.
"I know him very well because he was on Bobby Robson's coaching staff when I played for Barcelona.
"I know he will prepare well for this match with us because he is a very professional coach.
"We mustn't underestimate Chelsea. But like I have already said, they are no stronger or weaker than when the draw came out. They are a great side and they proved it last week with that big win over Arsenal."
Meanwhile, Blanc has confirmed that captain Thiago Silva should be fit to face Chelsea, despite fracturing his cheekbone earlier this month.
"Thiago Silva is fine," he declared. "It's up to him to decide if he wants to play with or without a mask.
"If he decides to play with a mask, we have to ask Uefa for permission to wear it against Chelsea."

text: Depopulation Vaccine: Scientific Paper Exposes Infertility Drugs Being Used in Tetanus Vaccines in Kenya 0 Depopulation, Vaccines 11:49 PM A+ A- Print Email A bombshell paper has just exposed the World Health Organization's attempts to lessen populations in Africa, as has been openly detailed as part of the NWO agenda for many years now.The abstract, titled HCG Found in WHO Tetanus Vaccine in Kenya Raises Concern in the Developing World, written by lead author, John W. Oller and Christopher A. Shaw, and published at Scientific Research, states that the "family planning" drugs the WHO was developing in the 1970s have been added to the tetanus vaccine widely given throughout Kenya and other African countries. By the WHO's admission, this vaccine could have been given in as many as 18 countries.The paper reads, "Conjugating TT with hCG causes pregnancy hormones to be attacked by the immune system. Expected results are abortions in females already pregnant and/or infertility in recipients not yet impregnated. Repeated inoculations prolong infertility."The authors of the paper point out reason for concern, as invariably people who think they are just getting a shot to protect them against tetanus, are really signing away their fertility rights.What is even more distressing is that WHO researchers are currently working on more potent anti-fertility vaccines using recombinant DNA. In research already concluded on animals, a vaccine has been developed which renders a male receiver "castrated" in a single dose.Why would the WHO be developing these vaccines under the auspices of tetanus, or any other disease, instead of calling them exactly what they are – sterilization vaccines?While there are numerous quotations proving the intent of the elite and the scientists who do their bidding, such as David Rockefeller who said:"The negative impact of population growth on all of our planetary ecosystems is becoming appallingly evident," there is rarely transparency in the action taken to fulfill this goal.Not telling 18 different countries in Africa that an immunization is being utilized to lower their birth rates and cause spontaneous abortions lacks transparency in the least, and smacks of an underhanded attempt to cull the masses, at best.Jon Rappaport, and others who have been investigating Big Pharma's actions in the African continent point to AIDS, and other diseases, as away to decimate large swaths of people who are considered "disposable" by the elite.Rappaport states:"Thabo Mbeki, the president of South Africa, has been a major thorn in the side of the depopulationists. He knows that HIV does not cause human disease. He knows that the front-line drugs for AIDS, especially AZT, attack the bone marrow, where certain cells of the immune system are manufactured. Thus CREAT ING what is called AIDS through pharmaceutical means. In particular,giving AZT to pregnant mothers is a major goal of the depopulation effort."This proves, singularly, that Big Medicine will use a disease or health scare, such as tetanus, AIDS, etc. to administer drugs which directly or inadvertently raise morbidity rates. The authors even state:"These initial findings gave credence to the suspicion that the WHO may have disguised a clinical trial of their "birth-control vaccine" in Kenya as an effort to "eliminate maternal and neonatal tetanus" there."Source Get Widget Share to:

I can understand why some people cry when its time to get off the boat. We're pretty lucky, actually. We were coming back to a relatively progressive community where our family is accepted and welcomed, and where we experience very few problems. Some of the families on the cruise are returning to communities that are a lot more conservative, and a lot less accepting or welcoming. For them, this cruise is the one time each year when they can get away from the anxiety of wondering how people will respond to their families or what their kids might have to face.
And even for me, it was a noticeable change, like suddenly relaxing a muscle that has been tense so long you begin to think that's its natural state.
You have to understand, it's like I said in the previous post.
I don't know how to explain it, and it's taken me a day to get used to the idea that we're in an environment where our families are completely welcome and completely accepted. Most LGBT people know the feeling. It's the one you got at your first Pride parade or the first time you were in a room full of gay people. For everyone else, I can only describe it this way. Imagine that all your life, you've worn a a pair of shoes about a size and half too small. In fact, if you have a pair of too-small shoes, go put them on and walk around for a couple of hours. Maybe all day, even. Wear them until they start to hurt, and then keep wearing them for a while
Then take them off. Doesn't that feel good? Now imagine that after a couple of hours you have to put them back on again and keep them on, for days, weeks, maybe even months before you can take them off again.
I slipped those shoes back on as we got off the boat, and winced a little, even though I know my pair isn't as tight as others. Suddenly, we went from a world where our family fit in back into one where we stand out again.
I think many of us started anticipating re-entry as we grew closer to having to disembark. Many exchanged contact information with other families they'd met on board, after discovering that they lived in the same area. I handed out cards, and we exchanged information with the families we'd met who live near us. And we were able to hold on to the feeling we'd experienced on the cruise when we discovered some fellow "boat people" (as some of us started calling ourselves during the trip) waiting at Penn Station for the trains that would take them home, and even a couple of families who were riding to D.C. in the same coach we'd chosen.
And, fortunately, our initial experiences upon re-entry were positive.
While we were waiting for our train, we had two hours to spare in Penn station. So the hubby and I took turns taking Parker for walks around the station to keep him from getting bored. At some point, an older man sat down next to me, and started reading a book while he waited. The hubby was playing a little game with Parker, when the man next to me leaned over and said, "I have to commend you. I couldn't have kept my three boys that quiet when they were that age, but yours is doing pretty good." It took me a minute to realized that he'd long since "done the math" regarding our family and it didn't appear to make a difference to him.
Later, when we were getting off the train, the woman in front of us who was traveling with her two teenage sons spoke to me while we were waiting for the aisle to clear. She'd seen me walking Parker to the dining car and back, and she'd heard us answering Parker's endless questions during the trip.
"How old is your little boy?" she asked, and when I told her she answered "Well, he's absolutely adorable. And very inquisitive." I laughed and agreed with her. "That's a good thing," she said with a smile, and then we got off the train.
So,those two incidents made for a fairly smooth re-entry into the world after seven days on our floating oasis. I know, we were in New York, so the likelihood that most people wouldn't bat an eye at our family was greatly increased. But I'll take what I can get.

Visitors enthralled by AmbleGPX and Hauxley reserve
A group of five Greek and five Latvians visited the area in May, to find out more about the area.
The visitors, a mix of environmentalists and tourism professionals, travelled to Northumberland as part of an international education week which was funded by Northumberland Coast & Lowlands LEADER Parks Protection 2 Project.
The focus of the week was to highlight Northumberland's wonderful coastal habitats and underline the impact and influence of people, both residents and visitors, upon the Northumberland coastline.
The week combined lectures and field visits to the Northumberland coast, including Lindisfarne, and the Farne Islands, a day in Amble to learn about smartphone tourism game AmbleGPX, and a visit to Northumberland Wildlife Trust's Hauxley reserve.
Participants were provided with a background on the flora and fauna, history and heritage of the Northumberland coastline with a focus on the challenges and opportunities involved in managing shoreline habitats whilst maintaining the sustainability of what is offered to visttors.
The trip to the reserve included a tour of the site and an opportunity to watch the wonderful variety of birds visiting the site at this time of year, a talk on the activities on, and management of, the site and a tour round a number of archaeological sites at Low Hauxley.
The Northumberland participants in the project, including Anthony Johnston Northumberland Wildlife Trust's Estates Project Officer, visited Latvia in May and are visiting Greece in July as part of the project.
He said: "The Northumberland week was very interesting and ended with a fantastic trip to the Farne Islands. Living and working in Northumberland as I do, I am always amazed at the beauty of the area so I know that the visitors will take some wonderful memories home with them."
The visitors enjoyed playing AmbleGPX and feedback from the group was very positive.
"Great day…expert tuition / guidance… the technology was simple to understand and apply…the games take you places you may not have considered visiting and see things that you may not have noticed otherwise."

Some companies are often open to new technology and these are the ones that move upwards as time changes and of such companies, eBay is one. The companies according to various reports have been mulling a plan to integrate Bitcoin for PayPal has finally decided to do it now.
In a statement eBay CEO John Donahoe who was attending an annual shareholder meeting, said that he was considering Bitcoin integration for PayPal. The news regarding this has been making rounds; however, it was not confirm whether it was going to happen till it was accepted and admitted by the CEO of the company.
Now that John Donahoe says that he thinks Bitcoin will play a very important role in the future, it is important for his organization to give it a consideration. Though he says that exactly how that plays out, and how his organization can best take advantage of it and enable it with PayPal is not clear, he still supports it.
The eBay CEO says that his organization is actively considering Bitcoin as according to him it is on his radar screen. This statement according to media observers is quite significant in the sense that it is a paradigmatic shift in eBay/PayPal's attitude towards Bitcoin as the two organizations rarely gave positive feedback about the digital currency.
Bitcoin Supporters Have Been Voicing for Bitcoin Integration by eBay
Various forums and support groups have long been advocating for acceptance of Bitcoin by eBay and payment processing by PayPal, there were no positive nodes from the two companies. However, now with the latest decision from eBay's CEO it looks it will push other online payment companies to seriously consider integration.
PayPal and eBay, both are large companies in payment method and online retail respectively and decisions like this are going to transform the way online commerce and payment is done around the world. The decision by the eBay's CEO is strange as earlier the same company had said that Bitcoin is competitive threat to PayPal in regulatory filings.
Though later on in late 2013, PayPal CEO David Marcus had said that he was intrigued by Bitcoin and in fact owned some of his own, he did not think PayPal was ready to allow its customers to link their accounts with Bitcoin wallets. The decision according to some critics may transform the way Bitcoin is being conceived by traders and investors.

You could say Whitney Cerak is living her life backwards. Because as far as big ceremonies held in churches go, a wedding usually comes before a funeral on a person's timeline. Not so for the 25-year-old, whose family and friends (over 1,000 of them!) mourned her death in 2006 ... then celebrated her wedding four years later in the very same church.
If you're confused, I don't blame you -- Whitney's story is one of the most incredible cases of mistaken identity I've ever heard.
See, back in 2006, Whitney was in a horrific car crash that killed five people. She was among the fatalities ... or so everyone thought.
But Whitney wasn't dead. She was lying in a hospital bed covered in bandages, critically injured. Unconscious and unable to move or speak ... unable to tell the people around her that she wasn't Laura Van Ryn.
Laura Van Ryn was a friend of Whitney's; they were both blonde and young and cute. They were both in the same car crash. Laura died, and Whitney survived. But in the post-accident chaos, there was a mix-up ... Whitney was thought to be dead, while Laura was thought to be the girl recovering in the hospital. Until weeks later when Whitney became alert enough to answer Laura's sister when she asked, "Can you tell us your name?"
I can't think about the joy Whitney's parents must have felt when they found out the daughter they thought they buried was ALIVE without thinking about the despair Laura's family must have felt when they found out the daughter they thought they were nursing back to health was dead. It's unbelievably tragic.
Still, the Van Ryn family is happy for Whitney, who is living her life to the fullest in Laura's honor. Now happily married to soldier Matt Wheeler, she recently gave birth to her first baby, a son named Zachary Thomas.
I'm sure Laura Van Ryn is smiling down at them, sending her love.

For those seeking alternatives to dry kibble or canned dog food, dehydrated food mixes can be an easy way to provide a less processed, but still fully balanced, diet for your dog. Dehydration is a gentler process than extrusion (used to make many kinds of kibble and cereal), so the resulting product looks and smells more like natural food.
The Sojos Complete line of dehydrated dog food offers the benefits of a natural, raw diet, in a convenient, shelf-stable, nutritionally balanced product. It meets AAFCO guidelines, is made from all-natural ingredients, and is free of grains, gluten, soy, GMOs, by-products, fillers, preservatives, artificial flavors, sugar and salt. It could be a great option for those pups with sensitive tummies or allergies.
Sojos Complete comes in turkey, beef, and lamb recipes -- we tried the turkey.
|8 lb. bag of Sojos Complete Turkey Recipe
In the package is a mixture of dehydrated chunks and powdery ingredients. Some chunks are larger than others, and I like that the pieces are irregularly shaped because it looks more natural. [[We have tried other dehydrated foods where the carrots were chopped into little cubes, and they came out as those same little cubes in Chewy's poop! Kind of a weird sight.]]
The food smells pretty good in the package, without that greasy aroma that is common with kibble. To my nose, it's got a primarily herbaceous scent, probably from the basil.
|The nose knows!
|Is it ready yet?
|How 'bout now?
|Waiting is hard!
After 15 minutes, some of the bigger chunks of stuff don't get soaked through, and the mixture can look a little soupy. Soaking for a few hours in the fridge gets everything thoroughly rehydrated, and it has a consistency more like a puree (with chunky bits). Soaking it in the fridge also keeps it off of Chewy's radar, so there are no sad looks or whining.
|Dry Sojos + water + 8 hrs in the fridge
Because this is a raw product, food safety is an important factor on both manufacturer and consumer ends. Sojos says that its "own 'lock-step' process eliminates the risk of food-borne pathogens, while locking in the taste and essential enzymes in raw meat." At home, you must keep food bowls (and your hands) clean, and utilize the fridge if soaking food for extended periods of time.
|Must get every...last...bit!
Chewy thinks Sojos Complete tastes really good, and will even start crying if he has to wait too long to eat it. Because it is hydrated, Chewy needs to go potty sooner after eating Sojos Complete than after eating dry kibble. If your dog does not drink enough water, this is one way to keep him/her more hydrated.
Sojos Complete is available in 2 lb. and 8 lb. bags. The package says that an 8 lb. bag contains 40 dry cups of food. The amount of dry Sojos to soak and feed per day is approximately equivalent to the amount of a dry kibble you would feed, and by my calculations, an 8 lb. bag of Sojos Complete would last about the same as a medium-sized, 12 lb. bag of kibble (varies by brand/formula).
Dehydrated dog food in general seems to be more pricey than kibble, but Sojos is one of the more affordable options in its class.
|4 paws up for Sojos Complete Turkey Recipe!
We give Sojos Complete Turkey Recipe 4 paws up! I like that it is made with all-natural, healthy ingredients, without fillers and salt. It is an easy way to experiment with a raw diet without personally having to worry about creating balanced meals or sourcing safe, fresh meats. Chewy loves the smell and taste (but perhaps not the wait time), and always double and triple checks that he got every last speck of food.
Disclaimer: We received an 8 lb bag of Sojos Complete Turkey Recipe from Sojos in exchange for an honest review. We received no monetary compensation, and all the opinions expressed above are our own.

A Petoskey teen escaped injury when he crashed an SUV into a light pole, fire hydrant, wooden fence and a building, a series of collisions that caused a natural gas leak in downtown Petoskey.
Petoskey police responded to the crash at 12:15 a.m. Monday in the 300-block of W. Mitchell Street. A 1995 Chevrolet Blazer struck a real estate office, leaving a large hole in the wall and smashing the gas meter.
A substantial gas leak filled the building with fumes, said John Calabrese, Petoskey's public safety chief.
Police declined to identify the driver, a 19-year-old Petoskey man. The investigation showed he did not crash under the influence of drugs or alcohol, Calabrese said.
The collision caused what's expected to be several thousand dollars in damages, he said.

Place: Isla Del Sol, Bolivia
Copacobana, Bolivia
The next morning, we try to decide to head back to Copacobana immediately to try to catch the bus to Cuzco, or to stay and hike to the north end of Isla del Sol. We decide to stay and do the hike. We leave our packs at the hostel. We go to the top of the ridgeline, where we run into Kevin, Paul, and Tony. Don Ricardo's was about like we thought, but apparently the breakfast was fantastic. Mike and I start walking north along the trail.
Along the trail, we spot various Inca ruins and various Inca descendants selling Fanta.
At the north end of the trail is the reported birthplace of the Inca empire. Called Titicaca, it also gives the lake its name. It means Puma ("Titi") Rock ("Caca") (Sorry, Dad). To make it look like a puma, you really have to use your imagination.
At this point it is 12:30. The boat leaves the south end of the island for Copacobana at 4:00pm. Rather than walk the three hours back and risk missing the boat and having to spend another night in the Hostel of the Damned, we grab a boat at the north end to take us to the south end. Once we get to the south end of the island, we have and hour to climb back up the Inca steps to our hostel to retrieve our bag, then back down again. I'm more than half tempted to pay one of the kids hanging around to go get my bag for me.
We get back to Copacobana, deciding to splurge on a hotel to make up for the previous nights fiasco. The Hotel Cupola, the Lonely Planet's splurge option, is up the hill about fourteen steps and is therefore not an option. We end up staying at the Katakuna, paying the exorbitant sum of $15 for a double with bath. We go to the Manka Uta for dinner, and have the Landlord's Stuffed Trout. The trout is stuffed with bones.

Best is a 2000 British film portraying the football career of the Northern Irish soccer star George Best, particularly his years spent at Manchester United. It was directed by Mary McGuckian.
Best! is a greatest hits compilation by the 1990s pop band Jellyfish. The album was released in 2006 and featured twenty tracks. Eight of the tracks were non-album while the other twelve consisted of songs pulled from the band's two (and only) albums, Bellybutton and Spilt Milk. The song "Ignorance is Bliss" was taken from a Nintendo games compilation entitled "Nintendo: White Knuckle Scorin'" and is inspired by the video game Super Mario World. The song "No Matter What" is a live cover of a Badfinger song.
All songs written by Roger Manning and Andy Sturmer, except where noted.
Best is the second live album performed by saxophonist Kenny G, featuring a very similar track listing to The Essential Kenny G. The only difference is Track 15, which is a Mandarin version of "Be My Lady", replacing "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas". It was released by Sony BMG in 2006.
Century is a New York Times best-selling novel, written by Fred Mustard Stewart and published in 1981. The story follows four generations of an Italian-American family with settings in both America and Italy. Most of the events that take place in the novel, take place in actual American and Italian history. Readers are witnesses to the rise of Benito Mussolini, the Prohibition period, Black Tuesday, World War I, World War II, the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Holocaust, and the gradual formation of the motion picture industry in Hollywood. The novel spent six weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list.
Seven-year-old Princess Syliva Maria Pia Angelica Toscanelli is called to the Mother Superior's office. She is told that her father, Prince Filiberto was killed in battle, making the princess an orphan.

An old slave, offers him his mistress's jewels for fifty dollars. Augusts gives him thirty dollars and his father's gold watch. He plans to sell the jewellery and use them to fund his plans of building a bank in New York.
A century is a unit of 100 years.
Century may refer to, or be used, in the following ways:
The Century was produced by the Century Motor Company from 1911-13 and later renamed to the Century Electric Car company from 1913-15. Both companies operated out of Detroit, Michigan. The Century was an electric car with an underslung chassis. It had tiller-operated steering, and the customer had the option of solid or pneumatic tires. Its electrical speed controller offered a choice of six-speeds, and the series wound Westinghouse motor that was geared directly to the rear axle.

SAN FRANCISCO - Twitter has announced that it will be testing a new feature called Bookmarks.
Bookmarks will allow users to privately save tweets for later.
Staff product designer Tina Koyama tweeted a sneak peek into what the feature looks like, with a bookmarks option listed on the users' navigation menu.
"We went through all the designed flows and picked the ones that are the easiest to navigate to test out with our community," she tweeted.
"You told us that you want tweets you've bookmarked to be private, so only you can see it. We kept this in mind while creating designs for the feature." A previous demo shows how the bookmark function might work: users hit on the corner button of a tweet, a menu pops out and an "add to Bookmarks" option appears.
The company's head of product Keith Coleman had tweeted about the function in October.
Coleman had said that the feature has been a top request from users on the social-networking site.
Presently, if you do want to save a tweet, the only way you can is to hit the like button as a way to save a tweet.
There is no official release date for the Bookmark feature as of yet.
News from the #SaveForLater team! We've decided to call our feature Bookmarks because that's a commonly used term for saving content and it fits nicely alongside the names of the other features in the navigation. pic.twitter.com/cQ0X1PHlsR— Tina 🇨🇭🇯🇵 (@tinastsh) November 22, 2017

A series of Beijing lawsuits first reported by Bloomberg on Friday are just the latest salvos in the increasingly bitter global patent war between Qualcomm and Apple. Announcing the new suits to the press, Qualcomm declared explicitly that it will seek an injunction in China to stop the manufacture and sale of iPhones.
The three cases have been filed to the Beijing IP Court. A Qualcomm spokesperson said the patents are related to power management and touch screen technologies, and made clear that they are not standard essential patents (SEPs). Apple emphasised that the rights are peripheral to the core of the dispute between the two companies, saying in a statement: "In our many years of ongoing negotiations with Qualcomm, these patents have never been discussed." But by asserting patents not subject to a fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory (FRAND) licensing pledge, Qualcomm is likely to be counting on an easier path to injunctive relief - its stated goal.
Bloomberg's coverage warns that with OEMs in China rushing to produce enough new iPhone models for the holiday season "disruptions [in the supply chain] would likely be costly" for Apple. But the Chinese practitioners I have spoken to don't anticipate a court order stopping iPhone sales or, crucially, manufacture and export – at least not anytime soon.
The success rate for obtaining a preliminary injunction in China is low, according to an article on Chinese patent assertion published in issue 84 of IAM. "In most cases a preliminary injunction is properly denied because there is no provable immediate harm and the defendant has not had a reasonable chance to defend its case," explained author Erick Robinson.The difficulty of obtaining a prelininary injunction in Chinese patent cases was also discussed by Philips' head of IP in China, Daniel Yan, and Ant Financial chief IP counsel Benjamin Bai at IPBC Asia last year; while another practitioner I spoke with told me it's hard to imagine the Beijing court issuing an order that could be so disruptive to the iPhone supply chain as a preliminary matter.
What's more, if Qualcomm is aiming for a relatively speedy trial and then an injunction, the Beijing IP Court would be a strange choice of venue. Litigators based in the Chinese capital tell me that the court's docket is very full, and that patent cases there are subject to significant delays. If a quick result is your aim, you'd likely file elsewhere, they stated.
Moreover, there is already an Apple-Qualcomm case before the Beijing IP Court, and the lack of ruling there suggests the judges are in no hurry to weigh in one way or the other. In January, Apple filed two complaints: one accuses Qualcomm of Anti-Monopoly Law violations, asking 1 billion RMB in damages, and the other asks the court to rule on whether Qualcomm's licensing practices are lawful. "If they really wanted to, the court could probably have decided on one of those cases by now", said China-based lawyer, who thinks the court will drag its feet waiting for a settlement.
There is a complex set of Chinese interests at stake in the Qualcomm-Apple dispute, a factor IP professionals say really does matter at the end of the day in China's system. Many people take the view that industry interests in the country line up more on Apple's side, given how much revenue Qualcomm earns from China's mobile sector (Apple is not the only smartphone maker that has stopped paying royalties to Qualcomm recently; some sources speculate that Huawei may be another). On the other hand, Robinson (Qualcomm's former director of patents in Asia) has laid out a list of reasons why he thinks taking the fight to China could backfire for Apple.
In many such cases, Chinese courts try to encourage a settlement. While plaintiffs have a high winning rate in the Beijing IP Court, part of the reason for this is that few cases actually end in a verdict. Beijing judges now have more levers which they can use to apply pressure to both sides. So while the suits may not impact consumers anytime soon, they could help to push the parties toward settlement, along with parallel actions in the US and elsewhere.
If these new Beijing complaints result in a surprise injunction it will be very important news. But as my colleague Richard Lloyd points out, if they compel a settlement, that will mark a major shift as well.

Book DescriptionBirdsongs is a fast-paced mystery centered on former FBI agent, Benny James. Fired from the FBI for inadvertently sleeping with the perp in a murder case, he tries to disappear to a houseboat and retirement.
Not having what it takes to relax, Benny starts a service offering discreet investigations. That is until a body is found crucified near his marina. The local police department requests Benny's help and he knows if he can catch the killer, redemption is his. The Chief gives Benny and the department ten days to solve the crimes before he promises to request the help of the FBI.
As the case grows, grabbing national attention, and the murders continue, the media soon fills the normally quiet town. Media goddess, Rachael Martin arrives and adds spice to an already flavorful mix.
A few newcomers straggle in as well. An ex-convict fresh out of prison from a thirty year murder rap slinks in unnoticed with revenge on his mind. Days later, a Greyhound bus delivers a strange young man raised by deaf-mute parents from deep within the Ozark Mountains. An old newspaper clipping and a dark secret pulls him to town.
Whatever is going on has something strange to do with birds. At each murder site, dead birds are displayed in disturbing ways—the killer arranging them as an artist might.
All the strange occurrences and unexplained visitors to this quiet town press Benny James to his max as he vehemently struggles to solve the most important case of his life.

When a burglar or a thieve breaks into your home, the spy camera will record every move and records it. It is essential to choose the indoor spy camera that comes with a built-in alarm system which helps in improving the security of any house. The alarm function that comes with the spy camera has motion detection elements that sound an alarm when something or somebody is moving inside the house. Note that the hidden home spy cameras are used to spy nannies, kids, spouse to see if they are cheating or to check on guests. Kindly visit this website

Sometimes I'm amazed at what threads are popular on this blog and which ones are not. Seems everyone is having a lot of problems with their HE/front loaders staining. Things were going along smoothly with our HE machine for the last few months and then the dreaded stains appeared on my clothes too. What happened and what are the things you may want to know…
Separate your colors very carefully – Since the HE/front loaders use less water you have to separate your colors more carefully because of the dyes in the clothes themselves. With your old washer the dye would let out of your clothes, but since there was more water to dilute the dye it didn't stain your other clothes during the washing process. With HE/front loaders one rogue red sock accidentally mixed in with your whites can cause havoc.
New clothes – Should be washed separately the first few times. New material/clothes (especially cottons) are more susceptible to dye leaking from them the first few times they are washed and can stain your other clothes.
Stripes or clothing with more than one color on it. Different colored stripes or different colors on one piece of material can leak different colored dyes at the same time. If you are wondering how a one plain colored piece of clothing ended up with multi-colored stains on it this can be the reason why.
Fabric softener stains. Try another brand of fabric softener and look for ones that do not have blue or colored dyes in them. A lot of repairmen do not recommend liquid fabric softener for HE/front loaders period. I use dryer sheets instead. Since I have a large capacity HE washer/dryer I use two dryer sheets when I'm drying a large load and two dryer sheets when I'm drying towels as they turn out much softer that way.
Detergent stains – Use a cycle that uses more water, add a second rinse cycle, try less detergent or a different brand of detergent. My own observation after trying several kinds of HE detergent is that the stronger smelling ones stained clothes more readily than the weaker smelling ones. I also was told to dampen the detergent stain with water and use ivory bar soap to remove detergent stains.
Other stains – Your HE/front loader may not be able to clean certain stains on its own. You may have to pretreat the stains beforehand. There are various stain removal guides available on the internet. Click here to see one.
Certain types of materials are more prone to dye leaking from them than others. This includes cotton, rayon, silk, wool and linen. Nylon and spandex can let dye the first times you wash them too. Acrylic, polyester and fleece generally don't leak dyes, but if they are blended with other types of materials they may.

Although the sky was grey and overcast, the rain held off Saturday, March 18, as White Bird Rodeo crowned its new queen for the coming year.
Cassie SueAnne Chandler, 15, was named queen for the upcoming rodeo year. She is a freshman at Grangeville High School and the daughter of Travis and Shandra Chandler of Slate Creek.
"In White Bird, friends are more like family," Chandler said in her speech at the community hall following her riding tryout at the arena where she rode her horse, Cowboy, age 12.
Chandler said she and her father were in a life-threatening accident in 2013 and her hometown of White Bird "was so supportive of my family and me."
"I believe in paying it forward," she explained. "Representing White Bird as queen would not only be an honor but also a way I could give back to my hometown in such a positive way."
Chandler is involved in volleyball and softball at GHS. She represented Riggins as its rodeo queen in 2013. She is also a member of the Fenn Livestock 4-H Club. Aside from Cowboy, she also will ride her 16-year-old horse, Tuff.
"First and foremost, my love is ranching with my family and trying to build our family's cow herd," she said.
Giving up her crown after representing White Bird for the past year was Bella Klapprich, 16, a sophomore at Grangeville High School
"I want to thank everyone, especially my Nana and Papa for always being there for me, and my mom for everything she has done for me," – from hairdresser and fashion designer to horse tail braider and driver, Klapprich said.
She is the daughter of Billejo Klapprich and Melissa Klapprich, both of Grangeville.
The White Bird Rodeo is set for Father's Day weekend.

Winter's Twilight
Chieftain of the Bedine Tribe (Nimad)
Amenrath is a PC in my old Winter's Twilight campaign (played by Myk Roman).
As such, here's his history during 1371DR (the year before the campaign date of 1372).
Amen, as he more fondly known, grew up in the deserts of the Anuaroch. Raised and trained by the Bedine, he has learned the ways of the desert and is a proficient scout, tracker and warrior. The Bedine, through the prophecies of Elah (Selune), has foretold of a great Cataclysm which will strike Anuaroch next year (1372DR The Year of Wild Magic). The Shade, led by the mighty Hadrhune, may have a hand in this. Struck down by Asabi while rescuing an ambushed Bedine patrol, he saw visions of a strange city in the North. Clerics of Elah have foreseen the written prophecies of a "stranger" which will liberate Anuaroch from disaster. Amen travels to the North to seek answers.
Now, Amenrath is the chieftain of the Nimad tribe

Small Campus Culture — Students
I have far too much to do to post, but I have decided to do so anyway, because there are many things on my mind. One is that I came back from Forn Parts with a very nasty respiratory infection, and I still have the wheezy cough — although I believe this is now due to pollen. Anyway, I will post more later (I have to post more to our group blog as well) on that, but I can say that the Balkans are beautiful, and I understand much better the recent history of the Balkans and some of their peoples, although the understanding is not something I get. That is, I can see things through the eyes of the people, but I simply don't understand that way of seeing things. I blame science fiction and an upbringing that, despite being non-, and sometimes anti-religious, always focused on common humanity over any other sort of affiliation.
That's another story, though. This is about some things I've noticed teaching at a very small campus. SLAC has well under 10,000 students in all programs. Actually, I think we might have under 5,000 students. Since I teach in the College, I teach exclusively undergraduates and I teach some courses that fulfill requirements for some other programmes. We have a small major, perhaps 20 students in a major that should have far more, and does in other SLACs. I've been encouraging students to add history as a minor field (College students must have one of each, or double-major), and this is starting to add to our numbers. But basically, except for my survey classes, I teach the same students every semester, often in more than one class. Over a four-year period, there will be a core of three or four that never changes. In some ways this is great — students really get to know each other, and me, and I get to know them. But lately I worry that we get to know each other too well.
This semester I am also teaching a course in another department. It's a pop culture and gender course, and has been far more difficult than I imagined, but has also been very, very rewarding. There are no history students in the course, although there are students who took my survey course, and two are students who have taken upper-division courses with me. Otherwise, they are from several different majors, and about a third are from an entirely different SLAC division — one that seldom visits my side of campus except when it has to. The seminar is over-enrolled, and is different to anything I've ever dealt with. The students are not any brighter than my history students, and they are in many ways not as well-trained academically. But they don't know each other, and they don't know me. I think that this, as well as the subject matter, contributes to the fact that they are better prepared for each class. It is the only class I've ever taught where the majority of students have been prepared almost every day. It is the only class I have ever taught where, every time I call on a student, the student has something to say, even though it might be that they didn't really understand the point of the reading. And honestly, the readings have not all been straightforward. There's been some Critical/Lit Theory (I know — me?), as well as a lot of social science theory and methods, plus some history. But they are prepared to discuss every day. It's exhausting, but in a good way.
Now, I am also teaching an upper-division history class. I hate how it's going, in part because I don't feel that I've ever got on top of it. I've taught it before, and for some reason, I decided then to teach it from a largely historiographical point of view. It was, I think, a good reason — for this particular period, there are a couple of very good short books available, and our students need practice in working with scholarly materials. They're fine with textbooks, and my students are comfortable with primary sources, but they have trouble reading scholarly essays, in particular, with a critical eye, rather than at face value. But, on the other hand, the essays are not always straightforward. They are excellent for teaching students what I want them to learn, but only a few of the students really want to learn those things. After all, SLAC does not attract students who are planning on graduate careers, nor should it — we are far too small to give them a really competitive edge. They want content. And, in fact, the course only exists in its current form because the students who want to teach in secondary schools need it.
It's not a bad class. Students are clearly learning things, and they largely do enough of the work. But I've noticed a lot by teaching a different group of students. I think one of the real benefits of teaching at SLAC is that we build close relationships with our students, and we get to know them (or the ones who want us to know them) pretty well. We often meet their parents, when one is doing poorly in a course, we can pick up the phone and check with a colleague and ask if the student is having problems there as well, and we can work with the student who wants help to get her back on track. But we also learn each other's bad habits along with our strengths. Now, this sometimes is helpful for me — students who know me will sometimes cut me some slack on slow response time for marking. They know that if I fall behind, I will make sure they are not responsible for things I couldn't reasonably hold them to. But it also means that they know where I will be lenient, and more importantly, they know each other well enough that many of them get complacent. They know who probably hasn't done all the work, but can still contribute usefully to a discussion. They know who will have done the work. And they know how much they can get away with and still pass, even though it's often by relying on others to carry them. We've got into a rut.
So, I'm doing some things to break us out. I'm changing requirements for my courses so that it's easier for students outside the major to take them. I'm looking for ways to change the dynamics without adding to my workload. I think it will be better for all of us, because really, their complacency makes me lazy, and their laziness makes me frustrated. It's a small campus. We forget that familiarity can be good, but that it can also breed contempt. I don't feel that for my students, and I don't want them to feel that for me.
Next time… small departments in small towns.

Have the battery tested, it may be weak. Clean and tighten the battery connections while you are at it.
Yes Battery Is Fine , I Have Some People Tell Me Might Be My Motor Is Locked Up Or It Might Need A Starter
If you remove the starter auto parts stores can test it.
How do you know the battery is fine? Has it been tested? Have you checked all of the battery connections? Have you checked the connections at the starter? Autoparts stores can only test a starter to see if it runs and the bendix extends. This is a poor test method and should include an amperage draw test. Amp draw needs to be done while starter is on the vehicle.
Brand new battery for the car , I'm hoping it's something simple as the starter..rather buy that than a motor

Subject: Re: ACR Calibration
Les and Manfred,
If you are having trouble with Tom Fors script and the manual methods, you might want to have a look at my version of a calibration script ACR_Calibrate_Rags
There are some differences in the basic approach and lots of options for those who need or want to try alternatives.
Toms script and Bruces approach are nothing short of excellent. But sometimes it is useful to have alternatives. If you want to modify the target values to match a unique target look you might find my version easier to do that with. I assume you have a fundamental knowledge of JavaScript.
As Julio notes, there is difference between calibration for some level of accuracy and adjustments to suit your aesthetic taste.
Cheers, Rags :-)

Hello and Welcome!
Woah, it's been a HUUUGE 3months for me. I'm sure if you'd had a chance to view my photographs you'll notice I've been travelling a bit. I just completed 3 huge months of cruising around the globe and it's been such a wonderful experience I hope you all get a chance to do.
I'm really quite new to photography having no formal training and just learning along the way. As such I think I'm still developing a style which may seem a bit all over the place at the moment but I LOVE photojournalism and street photography, capturing the faces and expressions of people in the street and so on really appeals to me so I hope to add more of this kind of work in the near future to Redbubble.com
I'm now laboured with the huge tasks of going through a collection of images I took whilst overseas, It becomes really difficult to work out what you like to display. Certainly taking the photograph is one part of it all but presenting it and shaping it a way that appeals to me, and hopefully you is a very difficult task.
Just recently I was selected for publication by www.potd.com.au for my Louvre – One Afternoon image in Sept/Oct 07s Camera Magazine. I cannot tell you how excited I am about this but to be honest when I shot the original image and later viewed it I sort of skipped past it taking no real notice. It wasn't until I spent a bit of time by recommendation of a friend that the image you see in my portfolio came to life! For me, finding a good image out of all the ones I take is a huge task as well!
So, I guess in closing for my journal entry I want to thank redbubble for creating such a wonderful place for photographers and artists alike and I hope that you get something out of my portfolio.
Best Regards

This movie can be captured in one word . . . BORING. Conspiracy is the theme of the flick, but it does not have much to offer. No acting, no interesting scenary, and no real plot. It just had a touch of special effects. There are no cool aliens just scenes of a spaceship. It is just a disappointment, granted I knew nothing about it prior to seeing it but still it was not interesting nor entertaining. I would suggest "Signs,� "Independence Day,� "Men in Black� and other movies if you are in need of an alien encounter.
