The accomplishment you feel when creating items is amazing. New ideas and helpful hints can take you in many exciting directions. This article has some new tips you haven't read elsewhere. You can't be sure what you'll make next!
Beadaholique is a place to get just about all you need for custom jewelry. There is a large selection of beads and chains to make jewelry. Much of today's fashion is centered around costume jewelry. When you create your own, your jewelry can coordinate with your wardrobe and you will save money.
There are all sorts of things that you can use for your arts and crafts. For example, one of the most inexpensive items for crafting is paper goods. You can use empty toilet paper rolls or paper towel rolls. Magazines and newspapers can also be used. Remain creative with what you usually toss out by using it in your projects instead.
You don't have to have an end game when working on crafts with kids. If you do not provide an example, or show several different types, it will allow your children to rely on their imaginations. They could do something like glue an eye where an ear goes. Their thoughts and ideas are important, so allow them to be a part of the final execution of the project.
Never scold a child if he or she doesn't get a crafty project "quite right". Remember that the purpose is to let the creative juices flow, and there is no right or wrong. They won't be able to create if you're constantly telling them they are doing something wrong.
Etsy can be a wonderful location for finding your craft and art supplies. Individuals use the site to offer items. You will also be able to actually sell your projects on this website. If you want antique or vintage pieces for your own project, you'll find plenty there, too.
Remember that doing arts and crafts, especially with children, will be messy. If you find this upsetting, lay down a drop cloth before starting. It is also helpful to use the washable versions of supplies, including markers and adhesives.
You should organize your crafting supplies. There are a lot of ways to do storage, and you have to find the one that best suits you. If your supplies are organized, finding the right item for any project will be a lot easier. Also, it will be easier to know what items you have.
When you are working on a craft project, carry out one project before starting the next. It can be tempting to do various projects and start on all kinds of crafts in this hobby. However, that's a surefire way to keep those projects unfinished! There is no need to rush; don't begin another project until you have finished the one you are working on. You will be able to finish up one craft before starting on the next.
Get your kids involved in crafting. If you've got a group of children, try to do a project they'll all like. If you are fresh out of ideas, you can ask a friend for some or look for help online.
It's never necessary to tell a child exactly what their finished arts and crafts project must look like. Let your kids run wild with their imaginations, either by not showing examples, or by showing a range of differing possibilities. Don't try to control how their projects look. Expressing their own vision is paramount to how they execute the project.
If you need materials for your projects, just look around your kitchen. There are all sorts of arts and crafts gems there. Tin foil, empty can and glass jars are some of the treasures that await. Pasta or beans can work, too.
Etsy can be a wonderful source of supplies for arts and crafts projects. You can browse through items offered by individual sellers. Not only can you make purchases on this site, but you can sale items here, too. No matter what you're looking for, you'll find it here.
If you're engaging in oil painting and don't like what you've just painted on canvas, paint right over it. Oil is a great medium to work with when learning to paint. On the contrary, it can give your painting some interesting design and depth.
Keep your supplies for arts and crafts organized. You can organize your things in many ways, so figure out which is best for you. Organization will save you time. It also helps you know what supplies you have.
An arts and crafts project is a terrific way to keep lots of kids, or even adults, entertained. There are project for the youngest crafter to the oldest crafter. You can find out age specific project groupings by looking online.
Kids can enjoy themselves a lot doing arts and crafts. With kids, consider what they like to do already. If you are clueless about what project to do, ask one of your friends or look online to get ideas for a fun project.
Gather all your needed supplies. It's never fun to begin a project and have to stop because you lack needed supplies for completing it. Make a supplies list before you start, then check off each item before you start.
If you want supplies for your arts and crafts projects, go no further than your kitchen. You can find some good stuff there. Tin foil, empty metal cans, glass jars, paper plates and even uncooked pasta pieces await your creativity. Other items that can be used in craft projects include paper products located in your kitchen.
Create presents for loved ones. Create personal gifts throughout the year and give them away during the holidays. People will appreciate the things you make with your own two hands so much more than store-bought items.
If you are just learning oil painting, and decide you really don't like something you've created on canvas, simply paint over it! Oil won't hurt the surface because it's adaptable. You can create depth by adding extra layers of paint to your painting.
When you are working on arts and crafts projects with kids, use this as a great time to sneak in other educational opportunities. Get them to do math, learn science or appreciate art.
Arts and crafts activities are a great way to entertain a large group of children or adults. There are projects out there for people of all ages. Check online for projects that are best for the particular age group you're dealing with.
You can give your loved pet a wonderful gift by you and your children making it a unique food or water dish. Use a plastic or ceramic bowl and let the kids use permanent markers or paint pens to draw any designs. Your pet will appreciate a unique dish.
Create presents for loved ones. You can make your gifts customized for each person on your list throughout the year, then give them away at Christmas time. Lots of people like handmade items more than store-bought ones. You'll also save lots of money every year.
If you want to assemble a car model with the kids, buy a model that is right for their age range. Young children do well with snap-together kits; teenagers are better suited for painting and gluing small pieces.
Try out a Spirograph to explore the role of patterns in drawing. Take the time to show your children the many different things they can create with this fun tool and let them explore patterns on their own.
Some stores have pamphlets with crafts in them. Look out for them when you walk around the store. These pamphlets can be found on a hook in the crafting department. You can typically find everything you need close to these pamphlets.
Do not throw away the packaging of the products you buy. You may be able to use these materials for different projects. Store packaging items, as well as other items you would normally throw away, in a bin and look through it whenever you are in need of inspiration for a craft project.
A good tip to rinse off paint-filled brushes that are difficult to clean, is to soak them in baby oil for a couple minutes before washing them. This makes it easier for the paint to be removed from the brushes, which makes them last longer.
To get the family involved in a fun craft, allow your children to make a personalized food bowl for the family pet. Start with a ceramic or plastic bowl and use paint pens or permanent markers to apply any designs that wander into your kids' heads. The pet gets a beautiful, customized dish.
Do you need inspiration for your next project? Take a good look outside for immediate inspiration. Find inspiration in the variety of colors you see in nature. You can go for a long walk in the woods or look at pictures of exotic places if you are in need of inspiration. You'll have no problem getting some good ideas.
Look online for deals. The web sells supplies for arts and crafts at a discount. There are many websites to choose from. Most of the time, you can find cheaper prices online than at your local store.
Take some time to organize your crafting space so you can spend more time enjoying your projects. To make your crafting run more efficiently, finding ways to save your time would be very beneficial. If you have items you use together, put them close to each other.
If your brushes are jammed full of paint and seem as though they are going to be difficult to clean, soak them in some baby oil as long as a minute or two before washing them. They will be easier to wash, and they'll last longer as a result.
Check out the pantry for some inspiration. Paper plates, old silverware, dried pasta and some basics like paint, glitter and glue can go a long way for great projects. Just get your kids to create their own art.
If you make useful things for the house, it might be even more enjoyable to do arts and crafts. You can make blinds, flower pots, picture frames and cushions, for instance. Such items are terrific gifts as well.
Are you at a loss about learning to knit? Many books can teach you about knitting, whether you are a beginner or a pro. Just check one out and begin.
Look in the kitchen for cheap craft supplies for children. Some paper plates, glue, paint, and uncooked pasta can help an afternoon become an art fest. Have them glue the pasta into patterns and shapes on plates, then they can paint them for a finishing touch.
Although a lot of people fail to view cooking as a craft, the kitchen is a place for creativity. Making a beautiful cake for someone is a very creative endeavor. An easier project could revolve around decorating cupcakes in any number of ways.
Do you not know how to knit and need a place to start? There are instruction books available for the beginner, so do not worry about it. There is much that one can learn through reading books, and also by looking at the illustrations.
Ask for baby photos of a newborn so you can create a nice keepsake clock. Use the pictures on the clock face, but cut holes for each hour on the clock. Cut clear glass that will fit the holes, then glue the pictures you have in place. Cover it with the glass so that the mosaic's surface is even, and install the hands and motor. What a gorgeous heirloom!
The information supplied here should have given you some ideas that have sparked inspiration in your own mind. Use the advice you've read here to enjoy your new hobby. Make sure to share your talents with others.
Plan to make a mess. Smearing, dropping, and dripping are all things that happen during projects. This is just part of the crafting world. If you keep everything protected, you won't be upset. If you are unaware of the mess you could make you might ruin something.

The only way any city can really become bike friendly is to provide bike paths that get you from point A to point B. Not bike paths, but separate bike lanes. A lot more people would bike if they could where they're going without having to fight traffic for the bulk of their trip. Traffic scares people from biking (as I suppose it should) because you can do everything right and still be killed. Personally, I worry that I'm not scared enough.
Good bike lanes that actually take you places are still a distant dream in New York. Even the East River bridges, which actually have great bike lanes, don't really help get people on bikes because the bridge approaches are shamefully horrible. See, for instance, all the bikes going the wrong way off the Queensboro Bridge because both sides put you in places where you can't legally bike anywhere you want to go. The Queens side in the most shameful because there are two unused lanes: one empty Jersey-Barriered lane that could be used. And another lane occupied by illegal parked (city-related) cars. Space is the not the issue. Priorities are. And until bikes are deemed more important than illegal car parking, all the bikes will continue to bike the wrong way down the street.
But this is a start. They call it a Copenhagen-style bike lane. Call it what you will. It's great. But it's only for 5 blocks from 16th St to 23rd St on 9th Ave. I don't know how they will judge this a success or failure. But it is the answer.
Speaking of space, New York City has lots of space. But it's all for cars. I don't like cars. But I hate parked cars even more. At least driven cars are actually helping somebody get somewhere. Parked cars just take up space. Subsidized public space. In a city that has very little space for people.
(I stole both the pics from Transportation Alternatives, my source for all this)
I love when people do this. People in cities are good at using small spaces. And parking spaces aren't actually that small. One bench is a lot better than one car. Parking for 10 bikes is also a lot better than parking for 1 car.
The bike parking problem in New York could be solved if one car parking space were fitted with a bike rack (or if they put parking meters back). So simple. So easy. So not going to happen.

In the early twenty-first century, environmental challenges—including deforestation, climate change, pollution, water scarcity, habitat loss, and the food and energy needs of a rapidly urbanizing population—are among the most pressing issues facing the world. Many environmental processes operate at a global scale and create natural and human consequences that cannot be addressed solely from within a single area or discipline. At the same time, local and historical conditions are always at issue in addressing environmental processes, problems, and possibilities. The study of critical environmental issues requires both area specific knowledge and knowledge that crosses traditional academic and geographic boundaries. The Environmental and Urban Studies program allows students to address these issues through focused interdisciplinary coursework and research.
The undergraduate major emphasizes interdisciplinary approaches to environmental topics, incorporating models and methods from the humanities and social and natural sciences.
Students who are majoring in Environmental and Urban Studies are expected to build a foundation for studying environmental questions by completing basic course work both in the natural sciences and in quantitative analyses. The program draws on the existing strengths and interests of College faculty in a variety of disciplines and divisions. The curriculum is organized around required elements that include:
- An introductory set of courses (ENST 21201 and ENST 21301, can be taken in any order)
- Course work in three broadly conceived thematic tracks
- A thesis
- An internship or field studies component or the Chicago Studies certificate
The three thematic tracks are:
- Environmental Economics and Policy
- Socio-natural Systems and Frameworks
- Urban Environment
Although students will design a program of study that will emphasize one of the tracks, course work from each will be included.
The major in Environmental and Urban Studies is coordinated by the Program on the Global Environment, which is housed in the Social Science Collegiate Division. Students in other fields of study may also complete a minor in Environmental and Urban Studies. Information follows the description of the major.
Students who wish to major or minor in Environmental and Urban Studies must declare with the College and then complete the program course of study form for their chosen course track. [Jump to Program Forms]
NOTE: The B.S. in Environmental Science that is offered by the Department of Geophysical Sciences may be more appropriate for students who intend to pursue postgraduate studies or professional careers in the natural sciences.

For Love or Honor
by Sarah M. Eden
Covenant Communications, 2017. 256 pgs. Historical Romance
Stanley Jonquil knew there was something special about Marjie the first time he met her. She was sweet and kind and was able to help him heal from an injury he received as a British soldier fighting against Napoleon. When Napoleon escaped, Stanley had to lead his men into the horrifying battle of Waterloo. His thoughts of Marjie and the letters she sent were the only thing that kept him going. The family doesn't hear from Stanley for months until he unexpectedly returns home. He has been severely wounded physically and has faced horrors that have wounded him emotionally. He is determined to keep his distance and not show anyone the darkness inside him, especially Marjie. Marjie doesn't give up easily and she is determined to help him heal so that hopefully they can find a way to be together.
This was a well written book that dealt with some heavy topics. Sarah Eden does not shy away from the horrors of war and how it impacted the soldiers and their loved ones. This is a continuation of the Jonquil family books so a lot of favorite characters make an appearance and there are some great new characters too, like Pluck. He was so funny! This is a good mixture of serious issues and humor and there is really nothing not to like in this book.

The Coalition Against Trafficking in Women (CATW) has successfully
filed an Amicus Brief in support of the lawsuit against Craigslist
filed by Sheriff Dart of Cook County, Illinois seeking to hold them
accountable for their role in facilitating sex trafficking. CATW's
Amicus Brief contains an impressive list of 65 co-signers
representing a wide range of prominent organizations and
The goal of the law suit is singular: close the adult services
section of Craigslist. It is well known that Craigslist adult
services section has become the technological red light district
for pimps/traffickers and johns, says CATW's Co-Executive
Director, Norma Ramos, Esq.
"Sheriff Dart's Craigslist lawsuit requests the US District
Court for the Northern District of Illinois to compel Craigslist to
no longer host these ads. In doing so an industry standard could be
set which would help create a human trafficking-free Internet,"
says CATW?'s Founder, Dorchen Leidholdt, Esq.
For far too long, Craigslist has been profiting from the facilitation of the prostitution and trafficking of women and minors in Cook County. It is time this website be held accountable for the harm that they continually enable, says Rachel Durchslag, Executive Director of the Chicago Alliance Against Sexual Exploitation (CAASE.)
Craigslist continues to cynically profit from the rank exploitation of others by functioning as an online pimp, says Ms. Ramos. Our Amicus Brief, prepared by CATW's pro bono law firm Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer US LLP and Professor Catharine A. Mackinnon, demonstrates the widespread support for Sheriff Dart's bold legal efforts to hold Craigslist accountable.

I swallowed the bitter pill
Of reality that the honey
Was not sweet and the discovery
Of fulfillment left me with rancid meat
The salt lick left much to the imagination
Is this the plate, have I misplaced my fate?
Lack of surreal taste upsets my stomach's irritation
Shun grins atop the alter
That was made by reckless, wretched,
Roaring in the tabernacle gate—stretched
Out in the presence of yesterday's date
Aroma lingering, fog glimmering
Of incense that memories escape
As your sacrifice I'm conflicted
Once as your Isaac, and now
To be closer to you
As Abraham— like father, like son
What I perceive as abundance I receive as plain
When I conceive perfection I concede the stain
Blood is rain, your body the branches
Yet I still complain in light of my circumstances
A broken promise enhanced with a shattered lie
I need your baptism to cleanse the reflection
Of someone I see, I hate, I despise
How you see…beauty in me…I fail to understand
Sight, beyond site, eyes of a haven I cannot comprehend
My prayers go without answer—are you listening????!!!!
I wail, I crash, I'm frail, I'm smashed
I'm no tree, yet I seemed to have fallen and
The mystery is that when I'm calling
The sound dissipates before it hits your ears
How appropriate are my confessions
Sweet like the wind, delicate as their origin
Uncovered are my obsessions
Translate your response…for I am foreign
The burdens multiplied and replaced the sand on the beach
Rocks crushed, to powder the bottoms of your hands and feet
Footprints carry me whilst in the shadow of the dark
I fail to realize your hands
They feel shaken, absent, missing their mark
I'm sure you felt alone while creating the earth
Well, imagine how I must appear
An actor on stage, recited lines spoken clear
I fear the spotlight has dimmed
When in your image, I disappeared.

Why I hate my washing machine -- Exhibit A
A couple of years ago we made a huge strategic error in buying a new washing machine instead of repairing the old one. Now we have a fancy water-saving model with no center-post agitator. It supposedly cleans by gently sloshing the clothes around in two teaspoons of water, tossing and kneading and forcing water through them.
I hate it, but that's a topic for another discussion.
The other day I opened the tub after the wash was finished and this is what I found:
14 comments:
Is this a top loader? I have a front loader and the issue I found with it is that I have no control over the amount of water is uses. That issue comes into play when washing out dyed fabric. I have learned to always unplug the washer and leave the door slightly open so it doesn't get moldy smelling. I have a separate laundry utility room so it is not a issue with me. I would probably have to wash those clothes again since how clean could they be all in a ball!ReplyDelete
This occasionally happens with the top-load washer at work, which DOES have a center post. (Kennel--we wash lots of towels, and some blankets.)ReplyDelete
I have a front-loader at home, and have not had this happen.
I think it happens during the spin cycle. Your clothing probably got clean. It is weird, though.ReplyDelete
It's a top-loader. I can call for extra water, and an extra rinse cycle, and I guess the clothes get clean, but I'm never very happy.ReplyDelete
I have never tried to wash out dyed fabric; expect that would be a failure.
I have a top loader that does the same thing. I inherited it when I bought the house 2 years ago. Happens mostly with sheets.ReplyDelete
Most people I know complain about the lack of water=lack of cleaning and the odor if the door is left closed. When I redid the bathroom--I left the 30 year plus machine right where it is. New is not better.ReplyDelete
My new "efficient" front-loader washer doesn't do this, but it dribbles a little puddle of water out thru the seal with every load. My dryer does this. One dry sheet tightly wrapped around 3 or 4 that are still wet. Crazy-making.ReplyDelete
Yep. My dryer does that too. The fitted sheet rolls everything in the dryer into a solid ball like Shelob, and the outside one is dry. Ugh.ReplyDelete
We have to get a new washer. We are leaning toward a front loader. I keep wondering how those top loader/no agitator thingies even work. Of course, the reason we are buying new is that the agitator in the current model does not work, and I'm not so happy with the cleaning. So essentially, I have a top loader with no agitator...
Mine does the same thing now and then, has even pulled the cap off the short thing in the middle that helps move the load around. I'm not convinced about how well it is cleaning and rinsing either in that small amount of water so I always set it for a soak after the initial wetting and a second rinse, which I suspect is countering some of the water saving. I do use this machine to wash out my hand-dyes, but I do a lot of soaking and rinsing at the faucet before they go in the machine for the final synthropaling wash. Again, with the soak setting during the wash cycle and second rinse setting. I do like that I can stuff a big item in it like a quilt, mattress pad or rugs and down't have to wind it around the center agitator. But I really do question how clean everything gets.ReplyDelete
This happens with my HE top loader sometimes. I'm pretty sure the clothes are clean. I don't put large loads in because I don't think there's enough water to clean them. That's my biggest complaint. I used to have an HE front loader and it smelled awful- I couldn't leave the door hanging wide open. I will never own a front loader again.ReplyDelete
UGH...we are in need of a new washer and dryer(ours are both 21+ years old). I keep hearing about how the new washers just don't cut it!!! HmmmmmmReplyDelete
Every one wonder how clean their wash really is? It probably has to do with how dirty it was to start. We often wash things that a century ago would not have been considered dirty....ReplyDelete
My front load washer doesn't do this but the dryer loves to! I think the only benefit for me is the drain cycles don't overload the drain and spill water everywhere.ReplyDelete
same, I also hate itReplyDelete

More people are flying this holiday season than in years past. Whether you're already a pro or flying to grandma's house by air for the very first time, here are 10 tips to ensure you're a super-savvy holiday traveler.
- Know Your Flight Status
Keep a close eye on your flight's status to ensure that you don't face any unexpected surprises at the ticket counter. Most airlines offer e-mail or app alerts to keep you informed of flight changes.
You can also monitor your flight's status from rdu.com. Remember that flights are routinely affected by weather throughout the nation, including the city your plane is coming from.
- Pack Smart
No one wants to repack suitcases on the floor of the ticketing lobby. Check your airline's bag policies before packing. Also, know how many carry-on bags are allowed. You can see whether your intended carry-on item(s) are within your carrier's approved sizes by using the sizing racks at the ticket counters and gates.
One more tip: consider a bright color luggage tag to help your bag stand out on the bag carousel at your destination.
- Prep for Security Screening
Even infrequent flyers know the drill going through the security checkpoint. Coats off. Belts off. Shoes off. Liquids in a clear plastic bag.
But, are you up to speed on traveling with medications? What about bringing home some of grandma's famous fruitcake? Take a minute to view our security screening tips page to get the answers to common security checkpoint conundrums.
- Arrive Early
Two Hours. That's how early ahead of your flight you should plan to arrive at RDU. But do you know why? Most flights begin boarding 30 minutes before the scheduled departure time. (Larger planes may begin even earlier.)
While RDU is built to move large numbers of people quickly through our facilities, you need to allow time for locating a parking space, security screening, gate changes and the unexpected.
- Park Wise
We offer more than 20,000 parking spaces, with 11,000 of those located within walking distance of the terminals. Due to the number of travelers we are expecting this year, the daily section of the garage and Park and Ride 3 may fill. We expect plenty of spaces in Park & Ride 4, located near U.S. 70. Electronic signs located near airport entrances will keep you informed on parking status.
- Pay at the Exit
If parking in the garage, head straight for the exit. When it's time to pay for parking, skip the pay-on-foot machines outside the terminals and drive to the exit plaza. Choose one of the credit lanes and pay from the comfort of your car.
- Make The Shops of RDU Your Own
We have more than 40 great shops and restaurants in our terminals, but here are two things you may not know.
- You can customize any menu item at any of our restaurants and they will prepare any menu item to go upon request.
- All of the Shops of RDU will ship items for you at cost. No need to take your gift purchases on the plane.
- Meet and Relax
Picking up loved ones and meeting them in the terminal? Park in our Hourly Lots for just $1 per hour. Passengers (except London and Cancun) arrive at The Meeting Place in each terminal.
- Enjoy Yourself
On peak travel days this holiday season, enjoy live music performances by local performers. Check out the schedule here.
- Connect With RDU
Stay informed of the latest airport status updates via Twitter at @RDUairport. You can also connect through Facebook and our newest channel, Instagram by visiting @flyrdu.

Stop building Eclipse plugins as Derby release artifacts -------------------------------------------------------- Key: DERBY-5272 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5272 Project: Derby Issue Type: Task Components: Eclipse Plug-in Affects Versions: 10.9.0.0 Reporter: Rick Hillegas A consensus has developed that we should stop building the Eclipse plugins as part of Derby releases. 10.8.2 will be the last release which includes these artifacts. After that, people who depend on these plugins will need to build them themselves and, if possible, find a place to publish the plugins. This topic has been discussed on the following email threads: http://old.nabble.com/Eclipse-plugins-to31524444.html#a31524444 http://old.nabble.com/draft-of-message-to-derby-user-concerning-the-future-of-the-Eclipse-plugins-to31691740.html#a31691740 http://old.nabble.com/future-of-the-Derby-Eclipse-plugins-to31708734.html#a31708734 This issue tracks tasks needed to accomplish this goal. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

Twins complete four-game sweep with 10-1 win over woeful Orioles
MINNEAPOLIS — Could it be it's not how you play but who you play?
It's certainly fair for the Twins to wonder that after pummeling the Baltimore Orioles 10-1 on Sunday afternoon, July 8, at Target Field. Clubbing three homers, two of them during an eight-run uprising in the sixth, the Twins completed a four-game sweep of the majors' worst team.
The four-game home sweep over the Orioles was the first in Twins history in the head-to-head matchup. The Twins also took four straight at Camden Yards in August 2015, back in Paul Molitor's first year as manager.
With the rebuilding Kansas City Royals coming in next for a three-game series, followed by the middling Tampa Bay Rays, the Twins suddenly seem capable of a fire sale-arresting surge into the all-star break.
"If we keep winning up until the break, I would say certainly," Twins right-hander Jake Odorizzi (4-6) said after tossing six scoreless innings. "We have to keep doing it. That's basically it. We're to the point where just winning series isn't going to do much for us. If we're trying to keep this together, we have to have sweeps."
Coming off an 1-8 road trip through Chicago and Milwaukee that included back-to-back sweeps against the top two teams in the National League, the Twins are one game shy of their season-long five-game winning streak, accomplished back in early May.
"It's a tough spot to be in for (the front office)," Odorizzi said. "I don't really envy it. We just have to take care of our business and let them do their thing. I like the way we're going right now. You can start to see that confidence come out from everybody. We're playing the right way."
This one was scoreless until rookie catcher Mitch Garver connected on a two-run homer to left in the fifth. Garver's 419-foot shot came on the eighth pitch of a prolonged battle with Orioles right-hander Alex Cobb.
Garver also fell behind 0-2 and pushed Cobb to eight pitches in the second before lining out.
Cobb, Odorizzi's former teammate with the Tampa Bay Rays, signed a four-year, $57 million deal in March that has been nearly as disastrous as the Orioles' season as a whole. Eduardo Escobar added a two-run homer to jump-start the sixth, and Logan Morrison, another ex-Ray, followed with a bunt single to beat the shift.
Morrison later hustled home to score ahead of Manny Machado's throwing error toward home on Garver's chopper. Catcher Caleb Joseph had enough time to step on the plate, but in his haste he allowed the fifth Twins run to score.
Brian Dozier added a three-run homer to cap the Twins' outburst, which tied with an eight-run fourth on April 11 against the Houston Astros for their biggest inning of the first half. That time the Twins blew an 8-1 lead after four and had to win on Max Kepler's walk-off homer in the ninth.
Cobb, who left with a blister on his first index finger, failed to record an out in the sixth and left with a 6.67 earned-run average. Odorizzi spoke openly in the spring about trying to recruit his friend to the Twin Cities, but it never seemed Cobb was a priority for the Twins, who instead signed ex-Cardinals right-hander Lance Lynn to a one-year, $12 million deal.
"He was out there for a long time," Molitor said of Cobb. "He was a guy that crossed a lot of teams' conversations. We were able to land a couple of starting pitchers; he wasn't one of them."
Chris Davis' two-out homer in the ninth kept the Twins from notching their seventh shutout. The Orioles (24-65) remain on pace for 118 losses.
Since tweaking his glove-side mechanics three starts ago, Odorizzi (4-6) has allowed just two earned runs (1.06 ERA) over his past 17 innings. Has Odorizzi lobbied the front office to buy the Twins a little more time before sending prospective free agents elsewhere?
"That's above my pay grade," he said. "I've got enough to worry about on the field. I don't need to worry about what's going on with chess moves off the field. As long as everybody has that same mindset, you don't worry about what might happen. Just worry about what can happen."

Prisoner health
Access Status
MetadataShow full item record
Any description of the health of prisoners needs to commence with the reiteration of the principle that a when a court of law sentences someone to imprisonment, "deprivation of liberty" should be the only punishment. Regrettably, in Australia at the turn of a new century, too many citizens are incarcerated because of hte consequences of illness.In reality, the "punishment" is only the beginning of a complex and punitive criminal justice system - prisoners, their families and their partners experience a number of "losses". There are levels of punishment - loss of privacy and loss of intimacy are just two that directly impact on the health of Australian prisoners. Regrettably, we confine our prisoners in conditions of physical squalor and overcrowding with the consequent health risks. Australian prisoners lose their Medicare entitlement. While this merely shifts the responsibility of primary health care onto the States and Territories, it significantly reduces the option of "second opinions" that the prisoner may request (as this now needs to be paid for by the prisoner or their family). These health risks and consequent health outcomes are readily transferred from the prison environment back to the outside community.

One big day of ideas worth spreading.
Join us on a journey to redefine what's possible, redefine the status quo, and help redefine the world at TEDxBozeman. This will be TEDxBozeman's seventh year of helping share new perspectives with the people of the last best place.
The Theme
Our world is constantly in a state of redefinition, from how we communicate and work to how we eat and live. As we bring our perspective to a more local view, we will explore how Montana's traditions, land, and way of life are constantly changing to align with ever-changing expectations.
"You can focus on things that are barriers or you can focus on scaling the wall or redefining the problem." - Tim Cook
Embracing this change and growth in our local communities brings many opposing viewpoints and ideas to the table. While growth can be good, it does require some redefinition of who we are, how we live, and the choices we make.
The Venue
TEDxBozeman will be held at The Commons on the corner of Baxter and Love, between Four Corners and Bozeman.

The sun was shining through her stain glass window that she made with her own hands. She loved the patterns it created on her floor. And today they were perfect. The sun was glinting like gold and she could hear the birds chirp in harmony. This was the perfect day, for her high school prom.
The doorbell sounds and Anna's heart skips a beat. The front door has never been answered so fast in her home. And she couldn't possibly make it downstairs as quickly. She knew today was a day of possibilities and miracles. She turned into the living room to see him standing there, in all his glory. A navy blue tux that matched her eyes and a small gift box in hand, Jamie looked handsome and ethereal. But the part that Anna was interested in was his smile. That was stretched to the seams today.
He walked up to her and presented to her the box which contained the most beautiful corsage she had ever seen. She could instantly tell with the way it was made, that he had hand-picked the flowers and sewed them together, hastily. The flowers weren't exquisite, the corsage itself was sloppy in its make, but it had Jamie written all over it. She beamed as he put it on her wrist. He looked at her expectantly and she said, 'I'm sorry Jamie, I couldn't get you a boutonniere.' Anna searched for disappointment in his eyes, but all she could find was herself. And she was taken in by the depth of his love.
She looked down at her hands to admire the corsage. And he knelt down beside her and said, 'your surprises aren't over yet.' Anna felt her heart flutter like the wings of a bee. She has never been pampered like this, and she couldn't help feel like a kid going to a candy shop. Embarrassed by her own childishness, she tried behaving more lady-like as he took her outside.
Looking at it, Anna was stunned. She almost had a black out. The entire pretence was gone. Jamie announced proudly, 'A new set of wheels. Must-have graduation gift!' Anna looked at her old, worn-out wheel chair as Jamie carried her and sat her down in the new one. Anna was over-whelmed. With no words reaching her mouth, she shut her eyes to stop the tears from running out. She tugged at Jamie's hand and said, 'Thank you. It's a very big gift and my big day has been made all the more special.'
Jamie winked a 'thank you' to her and proudly pinned the daffodil she plucked for him, just then. He leaned towards her and said, 'Thank you for the little things Anna… thank you for being in my life little sis'.
And he held her hand tightly as he wheeled her away from home, like he did on her first day to school. Love stories like these weren't written any more.

Happy Thursday folks – and Happy Thanksgiving to all our Ameri-friends!
First of all, I feel like I should apologize for the radio silence over the last couple of weeks. Between broken laptops, business trips, a sick pre-schooler & some much needed family time, there hasn't been a whole lot of room left in my schedule for the blog. I know…BAD blogger!! Not to worry though cause I promise to make up for it.
Next week be kicking off our second edition of Design Week! If you remember the first edition, we left you with a first look at the the house plans & the colour rendering of the exterior. Well next week we'll be taking you in-depth through the Dreamhouse exterior & what felt like 5 million decisions on colour & materials that went into it.
AND just because I'm in a good mood (maybe it's all the holiday nostalgia from watching this morning's Macy's Parade), I've decided to leave you with a sneak peek at some of the awesomeness we'll be going through next week…
So what do you think? Are you as excited as we are??

Around the Horn: Trout, Calhoun anchor outfield
With pitchers and catchers scheduled to report to Tempe, Ariz., by Feb. 18, it's time to dissect the Angels' 2016 roster. This is the fifth of a six-part Around the Horn series taking a position-by-position look at projected starters and backup options heading into the season. (Previously: catcher, corner infield, middle infield, bullpen)
ANAHEIM -- The Angels received above-average production at only one of the nine positions last year, and still they weren't mathematically eliminated until the final day of the regular season.
With pitchers and catchers scheduled to report to Tempe, Ariz., by Feb. 18, it's time to dissect the Angels' 2016 roster. This is the fifth of a six-part Around the Horn series taking a position-by-position look at projected starters and backup options heading into the season. (Previously: catcher, corner infield, middle infield, bullpen)
ANAHEIM -- The Angels received above-average production at only one of the nine positions last year, and still they weren't mathematically eliminated until the final day of the regular season.
It just goes to show how many deficiencies Mike Trout makes up for.
Trout's career-high .991 OPS last season was 252 points higher than what the average center fielder provided and accounted for the only spot on the field where the Angels held a true advantage over the rest of the league. Even first baseman Albert Pujols (.787 OPS) and right fielder Kole Calhoun (.731) produced slightly below the Major League average at their respective positions, though those numbers are more favorable when adjusted for park factors.
The real issue -- the ongoing issue -- remains in left field.
Angels left fielders combined to post a .592 OPS last season, the worst mark in the Majors and tied for the fourth-lowest mark in the position's history. With apprehensions of exceeding the $189 million luxury-tax threshold, the Angels bypassed a star-studded free-agent class that included Yoenis Cespedes, Justin Upton, Jason Heyward and Alex Gordon. And because of their depleted farm system, they couldn't -- as of yet, at least -- swing a deal for an everyday corner outfielder.
Video: Gonzalez discusses Angels not landing Cespedes
Now, with 15 days left until Spring Training, the Angels are primed for a left-field platoon of Craig Gentry and Daniel Nava, both of whom have solid track records but are coming off disappointing seasons.
Nava, a .289/.368/.408 hitter with the Red Sox from 2013-14, played in just 60 games and batted .194/.315/.245 last year. Gentry, a .288/.365/.380 hitter with the Rangers from 2011-13, struggled with the A's in 2014 and spent most of last year in Triple-A. Nava, a switch-hitter who fares better against righties, would see the vast majority of the playing time in a platoon. Gentry, a right-handed hitter, would start only against lefties.
FanGraphs recently compiled all of the anticipated platoons for 2016. Nava and Gentry ranked 32nd out of 39 based on Wins Above Replacement projections, made by Steamer.
The Angels are a little more optimistic. They believe Gentry's speed and defense translates well for a role that would only have him start about a third of the time, even though his production against lefties has steadily declined over the last four years. And they believe Nava's numbers last season were largely a product of the hand injury that plagued him through the first four months.
"There are some things to kind of give you some confidence that last year was not the new normal to Daniel Nava, but more of an outlier a season to him," Angels general manager Billy Eppler said. "Hopefully he'll be able to do the things that I think he expects out of himself, like he was able to do in '13 and '14."
Regardless, Calhoun and Trout will have to carry a lot of the load.
For Trout, it's nothing new.
Consider: Since his first full season in 2012, Trout has compiled a 37.8 WAR, highest in the Majors by a wide margin. In that four-year span, the Angels, as a team, have compiled a 156.6 WAR. So, Trout alone has made up more than 24 percent -- for a club that used an average of 50 players per season in that window.
Video: Outlook: Trout is on track for another stellar season
Still only 24, Trout is the first player ever to finish within the top two in Most Valuable Player Award voting in each of his first four seasons. But his RBI total dipped from 111 in 2014 to 90 in 2015, merely because of diminished opportunities. Trout received only 126 plate appearances with runners in scoring position, a number topped by 129 other players.
The key to the Angels' offense -- and their playoff hopes, perhaps -- will be to maximize Trout's opportunities. And that's where Calhoun comes in.
Calhoun has quickly established himself as an essential piece of the Angels' foundation. Last year, he won his first Gold Glove Award and belted a career-best 26 home runs. But that also came at the expense of a strikeout total that jumped to 164, which caused his on-base percentage to drop -- meaning fewer RBI chances for Trout.
"I want to focus on getting on base and being able to score a lot of runs," Calhoun said earlier this offseason. "That's what I want to do; I want to score, however that may be. This past season, I think my plate discipline could've been better."

FanGraphs WAR projections (by Steamer)
Trout: 9.0
Calhoun: 2.8
Nava: 0.2
Gentry: 0.2
Beyond the active roster
Todd Cunningham, a switch-hitter selected off waivers from the Braves in October, could also factor into the outfield mix. The 26-year-old has played in 47 Major League games and batted .261/.325/.337 in Triple-A last year. He is perceivably in competition with left-handed-hitting first baseman Ji-Man Choi for the final bench spot. Neither can be optioned to Triple-A.
Rafael Ortega, signed to a non-guaranteed contract Dec. 1, is an interesting guy to watch. The 24-year-old left-handed hitter was once one of the Rockies' top prospects until injuries got in the way. He holds a .288/.355/.399 slash line throughout his Minor League career, stealing 192 bases in 703 games, but was let go by the Cardinals in November. He has options remaining.
Jahmai Jones is the best outfield prospect in the Angels' system, ranked seventh overall by MLBPipeline.com. The Angels drafted Jones out of high school in the second round of last year's Draft, then watched him bat .244/.330/.344 as a 17-year-old in their rookie-level affiliate. Jones obviously still has a long way to go, but he has quick hands and great athleticism.
Nick Buss, Quintin Berry and Andrew Brown were all signed to Minor League contracts and will report with the Major League club in Spring Training, as will farmhand Chad Hinshaw. Buss and Berry -- owner of the AL record for most consecutive stolen bases without getting caught -- are both left-handed hitters with speed. Brown and Hinshaw are right-handed power hitters.

A family-friendly outing in your town doesn't have to cost a pretty penny. Most towns and cities offer tons of free activities — the trick is knowing where to look. Check out this list of springtime activity ideas that will get your kids out of the house, but won't cost you a dime.
by Lindsay Hutton
A. Visit a Local Animal Farm Baby chicks, lambs and piglets all make adorable additions to most animal farms in the springtime. Take your creature-loving child to your local farm to learn all about the wonders of new life. Petting Zoo.
B. Take a Hike At a state park or local hiking trails and spend the afternoon exploring nature. Your kids will love the fresh air and exercise. Go on a scavenger hunt for leaves, rocks, and other objects found in the wilderness.
C. Free Concerts Keep your eyes open for free concert series offered by area towns. A blanket, some snacks, and jamming to a local band can be a great way to spend a warm spring evening.
D. Get Lost in a Museum Most cities and town have any number of museums and many offer activities and workshops especially for children. Spend the day soaking up the culture at a local museum.
E. Help with a Community Garden Freshly grown produce will get even the pickiest eater to eat his veggies. A community garden is a great way to show your child how fruits and vegetables are grown, and fresh vegetables you reap will make a delicious (and cheap!) reward.

ALFRED GUDEMAN (1862– ), American classical scholar, was born in Atlanta, Georgia, on the 26th of August 1862. He graduated at Columbia University in 1883 and studied under Hermann Diels at the University of Berlin. From 1890 to 1893 he was reader in classical philology at Johns Hopkins University, from 1893 to 1902 professor in the University of Pennsylvania, and from 1902 to 1904 professor in Cornell University. In 1904 he became a member of the corps of scholars preparing the Wolfliin Thesaurus linguae Latinae—a unique distinction for an American Latinist, as was the publication of his critical edition, with German commentary, of Tacitus' Agricola in 1902 by the Weidmannsche Buchhandlung of Berlin. He wrote Latin Literature of the Empire (2 vols., Prose and Poetry, 1898–1899), a History of Classical Philology (1902) and Sources of Plutarch's Life of Cicero (1902); and edited Tacitus' Dialogus de oratoribus (text with commentary, 1894 and 1898) and Agricola (1899; with Germania, 1900), and Sallust's Catiline (1903).End of Article: ALFRED GUDEMAN (1862– )

I've just read online that its world book day today (5th march 2015) so I thought why not shy away from my normal nerdy, geeky content and write about a book that I have read and enjoyed over the past couple of months, all in spirit of World Book Day.
The book that I would like to talk about is "One By One" by Chris Carter. Now I never really read book a huge bunch when I was younger or when I was at sixth form, I hated books, I couldn't stand them, i'd rather watch a film then read a book (oh! how I was wrong). This all changed when I was on my way to work one day. On a billboard was the advert for "One by One" and it was really inviting. The poster fused everything I liked together, it actually looked liked and advert you would see for a horror film so I was instantly drawn in. I did think it was a horror film till I looked into the corner and saw it was a book. I anxiously waited for payday and as soon as my money went in I was off to buy the book.
The Story revolves around a detective known as Robert Hunter (who is a homicide specialist with the LAPD) and he pretty much is the man to go to when stuff gets bad. One day he gets an anonymous phone call from a guy and he tells him about a live stream on the internet. As any good cop would he looks at this stream and see's its a man stuck in a box, the caller then tells Hunter that he has to decide how he dies!! "Water or Fire". Hunter must make the decision on how this man dies. This caller then goes on to explain he will do these streams again and let the public decide on how each candidate dies (with each death getting more horrifying then the last). Its a race against time as Hunter gathers all of his assests to try track down this sick individual (promise these are my own words and not copied from the blurb)
This book is part of a series (I never knew this at first) but even so, having not read any of the previous books, I still felt that i could understand everything in the book and its easy for new readers to pickup. Oh and I forgot to mention that Chris Carter was a criminal psychologist for many years previous, so he bloody damn well knows what he's talking about and conveys the psychological aspect of a killer very well. This book was literally one i could not put down. I finished it in one day. I recommend this book and series highly as they are well written and just awesome.

Catt Green: Hello KittyPhoto, Scoreland Tuesday, January 3rd, 2012
Catt Green's background reads like the perfect V-mag Girl. Cheerleader, dancer, athlete (soccer and volleyball). Enjoys reading, art, crocheting. Wants to show off her sexy body and big 36G natural breasts for you and has the freshness and positive enthusiasm of youth, having turned just 19 this past August. A happy, girl-next-door with a naughty glint in her eyes, Catt Green has bared all, played with a toy, done a Tits & Tugs and teamed up with Beverly Paige for a nice two-on-one cock Tits & Tugs. She was so hot in all of them even though she had never done anything like this before. "I'm also bi-sexual and one of my favorite things to do is jump into the shower with one of my girlfriends.
I enjoyed hanging out with Beverly and making that guy come on us. I loved her big tits. Meeting Beverly at SCORE was one of the highlights of my visit. I've seen many of the models at SCORELAND and in the magazines but meeting one of them was so much fun." What kind of guys does Catt Green like? "I like a man who has a sense of humor and likes to go places and do things. He also has to keep me satisfied in bed. A big dick does that and someone who knows how to use it. I can get a little kinky although I don't look it right away." True, that. Catt Green has a tongue ring, a pierced pussy and a tat on her right shoulder but that's what today's girls-next-door do. Catt Green's outfit in this pictorial is perfect, tight and sexy. She's total girlfriend material.

Remembering Ultrasound Pioneer Floyd Dunn
The biomedical ultrasound community sadly lost one of its important pioneers. Floyd Dunn passed away on January 24, 2015 at the age of 90. Floyd was a member of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign for over 50 years. Following the death of Bill Fry in 1968, Floyd became director of the Department's Bioacoustics Research Laboratory and made it a world leader in the field of biomedical ultrasound. Founding RCBU Director Ed Carstensen writes, "It is hard to believe today, but in the mid-1960s, research in this field had dwindled to the point that progress could be reported in biannual sessions at meetings of the Acoustical Society. Floyd and Wesley Nyborg organized those special sessions and we are uniquely indebted to them for keeping the field alive." Floyd's body of scientific work provides foundation for our understanding of the propagation of ultrasound in tissues and the biological effects of ultrasound. He was a member of both the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering, and served as President of the Acoustical Society America. He was recognized with the highest awards from numerous scientific societies, including the IEEE Edison Award, the ASA Gold and Silver Medal Awards, and the AIUM Joseph P. Holmes Basic Science Pioneer Award. He served on many FDA, NIH, AIUM, and ASA committees, and was a member of Committee 66 of the National Council on Radiation Protection. Floyd was a Charter Honorary Member of the RCBU and was a long-time friend and colleague for many of us. The RCBU and the wider biomedical ultrasound community will miss Floyd dearly.

LOS ANGELES - Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed a bill Wednesday that would have allowed Californians to vote on whether "the president should end the United States occupation of Iraq."
The governor explained his decision by saying that Iraq policy was "not a state issue" and that the symbolic vote would carry no weight.
If Californians want to send Washington a message about Iraq, Mr. Schwarzenegger said, they can do so at the polls without an Iraq advisory question. California, he said, moved its presidential primary up to Feb. 5 from June to allow the state a greater say in selecting presidential candidates.
"All Californians have the right and the means to speak their mind on matters of such national importance," Mr. Schwarzenegger, a Republican, said in his veto message. "There is no louder message Californians can send to Washington on the Iraq war than who should lead our nation."
The bill would have added an advisory question to the February ballot asking voters if they favored an immediate troop withdrawal from Iraq.
Sixty-five percent of Californians support either withdrawing all (39 percent) or some (26 percent) of the American troops in Iraq, according to the Field Poll, which questioned 1,029 registered voters in California from Aug. 3 to Aug. 12. Participants were asked what the United States should do now about the number of its troops in Iraq.
Something is Happening. People are Drawing Lines.
And We've Got It Covered.
But we can't do it without you. Please support our Winter Campaign.
The margin of error was plus or minus three percentage points.
State Democrats strongly criticized the veto. The president pro tem of the Senate, Don Perata, the Democrat who introduced the Iraq bill, said it was odd for Mr. Schwarzenegger to dismiss Iraq as a federal issue when he - and the state - had taken such a strong stance on global issues like the environment.
The chairman of California's Democratic Party, Art Torres, said the governor's veto "muzzled" voters.
"The self-proclaimed 'people's governor' owed nothing less to the people of California and our troops overseas than to let the voice of the voters be heard on this disastrous war in Iraq," Mr. Torres said. "Instead, even as General Petraeus presents statistics this week that have raised more questions than answers about progress in Iraq, Schwarzenegger has ignored that message and effectively muzzled California voters on this critical issue."
The veto came on the same day that Mr. Schwarzenegger announced the deaths of four marines from Camp Pendleton near San Diego.
Since 2003, more than 400 service members from California have died in Iraq, more than from any other state.

Beneficial Email Marketing Tips That You Can Use To Increase Sales
When looking for different ways to market your business or the services you provide, email marketing is a great option. If you want it to work to your advantage, it is important that you know more about how to use it in a way that is effective. By following the tips below, it is possible to become even more knowledgeable on email marketing and all of the steps that it entails.
For starters, pay attention to small details about your clients. Send out messages on their birthday to wish them the best. It shows that you actually care about them and are not just trying to sell a product, even though that is your intention. Try getting clients to subscribe by sending them a pleasant message instead of something that looks like it is spam.
Make sure that your clients actually want to receive your messages. Ask them to click a button to subscribe so that you know that they really want to read the emails that you will send out. If you just add them to your mailing list without permission, they are going to view those messages as spam and probably will not even open them.
Do not give up after the first message. If you are not persistent, you may never make the sale. You should continue sending messages periodically without sending out too many at once. As long as you stick with it, you have a better chance of getting their attention.
Make sure that your message has a point to it. You must include interesting content or people just will not read it. Engage your readers so that they want to keep reading the message that you send. Develop contests that will help you gain subscribers and clients who will actually open up each message to read what it has to say.
Offer something that is helpful in your message. Whether it is a bit of advice or a few useful tips on how to do something, people will feel more inclined to read it. Show what you know in the specific industry that you represent. If you can prove how much of an expert you are in your industry, you can start to gain trust.
Keep the same color scheme and layout for all of your emails. It is the best way to get readers to remember you and what your messages are about. The logo for your business should be featured somewhere at the top of the email. Do not forget to use a legible font so that it is easy for people to read what you have written.
Come up with several good ideas for the subject line. It is the first thing a person sees before they choose to click the email to open it. If it does not interest them, they will probably delete it and never go back to check it out. Brainstorm for some good lines that would make people want to read to find out more.
Take the time to check how well your email marketing campaign is doing. It is important to find out how many people are opening up these messages and paying attention to them. When you know what is going on, you can figure out which areas may need improvements. You can then focus on making those improvements.
Add an unsubscribe link for your mailing list. Even though you do not want them to unsubscribe, it is important to give them the option. And, do you really want to keep people on your mailing list who are only going to delete the messages that you are sending? By including the unsubscribe link, you are showing that you respect the wishes of your customers who may not want to receive those emails any longer.
Avoid sending general content. Learn more about your customers and their interests so that you can create content that they can relate to. If you want them to keep reading, you have to focus primarily on satisfying their needs by writing about certain things that they like or want to learn more about.
Never buy an email list from someone else. The people on that list may have no interest in what you are offering. Start building your list from scratch so that it is full of people who are actually interested in what you are selling to them. The response that you receive may be much better than the response you would get from those on a mailing list.
Email marketing is effective, but it must be done correctly. The tips above will allow you to make sure you are doing it right because it is not too difficult at all.

What The Dead Know by Stephen De France
The dead hide in suburban vehicles,
electrified hair & purple ponytails.
Behind darkened windows dead children scream.
The dead patrol local strip malls, bump over
curbs, run old folks from crosswalks, clip
fenders, as minds reflexively gag
over their useless day of dead work.
Tentacles from searchlights
extend into cosmic darkness,
dead cow flesh burns
in fast food pit stops,
a kind of cosmetic death hangs suspended
in our grease smeared canopy of sky.
Old & young dead alike---waddle wide
into Big Buns Food Barn
& like killer whales in bloodied water
these ponderous leviathans hunt & gather
27 kinds of sugar, 11 kinds of lard
51 varieties of cheese from France
& a hundred and one pounds of prime pork.
The dead deny renewal from the sea,
reject icy breath from the stream,
dismiss the life force from the desert sun,
reject the sentimental shade of oak trees,
they never follow twisting rivers,
never chance life
in a single desperate gamble,
never make a lonely midnight
call from Yuma,
never hear a hundred good byes
from ghostly lovers,
never shake in their own puke
on the tiled bathroom floor,
never love
because the dead fear all life.
The dead only know what the dead know,
they meet at desolate corners
& reiterate dead things.
Children of the dead
roll on a patch of synthetic grass,
as their parents
sit on the front porch with a martini
admiring their families'
inherited bovine resemblances.
They share brochures
with each other from Forest Lawn,
pictures showing that their Crosses are already laid out,
Graves dug.
Husbands of the dead---men in greasy jeans,
oil rags hanging, smile foolishly
their minds numb and spirits broken,
they are deeply perplexed,
and for clarification
they throw tools at one another---
swear & drain oil from
their trucks.

"I know you have come to Jerusalem from around the world to pay tribute to me, and with me; to do tikkun olam," said President Shimon Peres at the ceremony marking his 90th birthday, in the presence of many esteemed guests. Peres added that he was honored to fight for the country and for peace for so long.
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair opened the celebrations with warm words for Peres and said: "We have our queen, and you have your Shimon."
Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu also spoke at the ceremony and said: "Shimon you prove that it is possible to be curious at any age and young at any age."
"Shimon Peres has devoted his life to building Israel and building peace. A strong Israel creates the conditions for peace," the prime minister added.
In his speech, Former US President Bill Clinton said Peres was the Albert Einstein of the social world.
According to Clinton, Peres managed to put together a unified theory of meaning, philosophy, politics, psychology, technology and society. One day, Clinton said, his theory would become a reality in both Israel and the world.

Foreign woman? I can relate. It's hard, at times, to understand what surrounds me. Some will bow down to multiple gods just in case. If one doesn't grant their request, they try another. The moms learned that Jesus tested the foreign woman's faith to see if it was genuine before granting her request. She persisted in her request with a strong faith in Jesus. Her request was granted. This story is found in Matthew 15:22-26.
1 1/3 cup whole wheat (Atta) flour
1/4 cup All purpose flour (Maida)
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp rolled oats
5 Tbsp butter
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup milk
Preheat oven to 190 or 375 degrees
In a large bowl, sift together all dry ingredients except sugar and oats.
Cut in the butter until mixture is crumbly.
Stir in sugar and milk until a dough forms.Knead until smooth.
Roll into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Roll out the dough 1/4 " thick and cut with cookie cutters.
Bake for 12-15 minutes. Watch carefully.
Let cool for 5 minutes.
Keep in an airtight container.
