This is my contribution to challenge #2 from Laura Harms. This was the first time I tried doing the double pencil to make a string. I found this challege a little harder then I thought it would be. The first tile I did, the tangled string was pretty, but then I tangled so much around it that the string was kind of lost. Normally when we tangle, we lose the string in the process, but with the double string it makes a beautiful place to tangle that we don't want to lose it the process. I love the look of the double string, and have enjoyed seeing everyone's, so I will have to play with this a little more.

Very beautiful! It´s nice how the string embraces the tangles in the loops.ReplyDelete
Nice! I especially like the loop in the upper right and how Flux overlaps the 'ribbon' just below it.ReplyDelete
I love the design the string makes and the feel of movement; very pretty!ReplyDelete

I love the plain stripe that you've used in places in the two sting areas and how all your tangles are contained within the loops.ReplyDelete
Very nice! I like the clean look of this tangle, and how one of your Ennies doesn't quite fit and how you continued the dark area outwards to the next spaces giving your string more emphasis.ReplyDelete

As you are aware that the 117th
Constitution Amendment Bill, 2012 to provide reservation for the
SCs and STs in Government job promotions, could not be discussed
in the Lok Sabha due to disruptions by some party Members.
Reservation has been available to SCs and STs in promotions
since long. The Supreme Court in its judgment dated 16.11.1992
in the case of Indra Swhney had held reservation in promotion as
unconstitutional but allowed its continuation for five years
from the date of judgment as a special case. After expiry of
five years, the 77th amendment to the Constitution
was made in 1995 which enabled the Government to continue
reservation for SCs and STs in promotion and Article 16(4A) was
added in the Constitution.
On 10.10.1995 the Supreme Court in
the matter of Virpal Singh Chauhan held that if an SC/ST
candidate is promoted earlier than his senior general candidate,
by virtue of rule of reservation roster, and the senior general
candidate is promoted later to the said higher grade, the
general candidate shall regain his seniority over such earlier
promoted SC/ST candidate.
Further, 85th amendment to the
Constitution was made by amending clause 4A so as to give benefit and
retain the seniority to SC/ST candidate. Reservation in promotions was
challenged in many States. All these cases were clubbed and heard by
Supreme Court in M Nagaraj case. The Supreme Court while ruling that
the above 77th and 85th amendments were
constitutionally valid, the concerned State will have to show in each
case the existence of the compelling reasons namely backwardness and
inadequacy of representation and overall administrative efficiency
before making provision for reservation. Since the impugned provision
was an enabling provision, the State was not bound to make reservation
for SC/ST in the matter of promotions.
However, if they wish to exercise their
discretion and make such provision, the State has to collect
quantifiable data showing backwardness of the class and inadequacy of
representation of that class in public employment in addition to
compliance of Article of 335. As such, the Central Government has not
made any change consequent upon Nagaraj case in its policy regarding
reservation in promotion along with consequential seniority to SC/ST
which was continuing since 2002. Finally, the Supreme Court in its
judgment on 27.04.2012 in the matter of UP Power Corporation V/s Rajesh
Kumar, uphold its directions issued in the case of Nagaraj, and hence
the 117th Constitutional Amendment as mentioned above was
necessitated in the interest of SCs/STs.
If I may say so, the representation of
reserved classes of the Society in our Courts is negligible and
therefore to understand the agony and misery of SC/STs and backward
class people is not possible for the Courts. It is a fact that from
centuries the SC/STs are the depressed people of the Society as they
have not been given an environment which other classes of the Society
have been enjoying. Being in public life, I am of the firm opinion that
this section of the Society has been neglected and their every new
generation keeps on suffering in our country. It is unfortunate that
even after 65 years of our independence we the politicians could not
uplift their standard of living due to many obvious reasons. A large
number of people in our Society belong to this class and they are
socially disadvantaged and generation after generation and century after
century their living conditions have not been improved.
Since neither the Government has
centralized data reflecting adequacy/ inadequacy of representation of
SCs/STs in promotion quota, nor it has centralized data on cadre and
grade wise representation of this class, I am of the view that the SCs/STs
should be notified in the schedule under Article 341 and 342 of the
Constitution. When SCs/STs are notified under Article 341 and 342, then
automatically there will not any need to collect quantifiable data
showing their backwardness of the class and inadequacy of representation
of that class in public employment.
I have been visiting backward areas of
various States in the country and I know their plight very closely.
Therefore, I am sure that unless we take immediate measures to safeguard
the interests of SCs/STs as proposed in the 117th
Constitutional Amendment Bill, the Society in the country will be
divided and we will be left with no other remedial measures. I would
appeal to all political parties to come out vociferously in support of
the 117th Constitutional Amendment Bill so that reservation
for promotions to SCs/STs in Government jobs is continued and ensured.

Renewing our vows with Elvis!
While we were in Las Vegas we renewed our vows, after 25 years of marriage, at the Elvis Chapel. We posted a few of the pictures we had taken on an earlier post, but these are the ones that the photographer at the chapel took.
After some initial photographs Elvis was in the building and led Victoria up the aisle to 'Love Me Tender'.
Elvis then conducted the ceremony and Victoria promised that I would never buy any 'Blue Suede Shoes'.
After the ceremony we then had a dance to 'Viva Las Vegas' (I was constantly out of step) before another session with photographer outside the chapel.
We then took the limousine back to the Venetian to continue our celebrations.

According to FemaleFirst reports that the late singer Michael Jackson once saved her sister's husband, James DeBarge, suicide.
The singer James DeBarge, who was briefly married to Janet Jackson in 1984, said he has already threatened to jump off a building, until Michael Jackson talks to him and the disincentive to do something irreparable.
In an episode of his new show Lifechangers, DeBarge said: "Once I was on the roof of this house. I was about to jump and everyone panicked. He was the only one who does not panic. He seemed familiar with my pain. He knew that I needed to talk to someone, then it was that way. We just talked all night and I even forgot I was on the roof and that I wanted to jump. "
Remember that Michael Jackson died in 2009 from an overdose of propofol. His personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray is about to stand trial for manslaughter, accused of causing the death of the King of Pop.

Getting Old
By: Jane
Tags: aging, animal abuse, C.S. Lewis, Christ, Christianity, death, God, Keith Miller
Category: God
I read several devotionals today that struck a chord – God knows the things that occupy my mind and responds to them.
One was by Albert Schweitzer – about how troubled he was by animal abuse and neglect, so he wrote this prayer:
"Oh heavenly Father, protect and bless all things that have breath; guard them from all evil, and let them sleep in peace."
Albert Schweitzer
Reverence for Life
"A good man is concerned for the welfare of his animals." Proverbs 12:10
Another thing that concerns me regularly is something that I used to be able to ignore. I can no longer escape the fact that all of us grow old, and life on earth is temporary.
I think that realization hit me squarely in the face when Mike died at only 24 years of age. It doesn't matter how old I am – my life could be over on any given day or moment. Still, we know that the average lifespan is "three score years and ten"…70 years or so. If, "by reason of strength", I live to be 80, that leaves me 23 more years.
23 years seemed like a long time when I was 23.
I worry because my grandmother had "hardening of the arteries." Today we call it Alzheimer's or dementia. I don't want that to happen to me. Both of my parents had cancer. I don't want that to happen to me. If I had my druthers, I'd go to sleep one night and dream that Michael came and stood next to me. He'd smile, invite me to walk into that one-armed hug of his, and say, "Don't be afraid, Mom." Then I'd wake up and find that it wasn't a dream at all, and there really is nothing to fear.
C.S. Lewis wrote:
"I am progressing along the path of life in my ordinary contentedly fallen and godless condition, absorbed in a merry meeting with my friends for the morrow or a bit of work that tickles my vanity, a holiday or a new book, when suddenly a stab of abdominal pain that threatens serious disease, or a headline in the newspaper that threatens us all with destruction sends this whole pack of cards tumbling down. At first, I am overwhelmed and all of my happinesses look like broken toys. Then, slowly, bit by bit, I try to bring myself into the frame of mind that I should be in at all times. I remind myself that all these toys were never intended to possess my heart, that my true good is in another world, and my only real treasure is Christ."
C.S. Lewis
The Problem of Pain
"Give me the courage to face the stark realities of life, and help me to move through each stage of development with a perspective of wisdom and joy instead of fear, knowing You will be with me."
Keith Miller

Earthly reality stinks. Than God for his grace.
I would like to have that dream, too. Dr. Hays died that way – went to sleep one cold December night and never woke up.
It was 10 years ago on the 12th that my father died, 10 years ago yesterday that we buried. Ironically, I received a catalog in the mail for Trappist coffins. I kid you not. A Trappist monastery in Ohio hand crafts coffins. Some Trappists make jelly, these guys make coffins, from trees on their property.
Maybe I will use the Trappist catalog as a good way to bring up final plans with my mother, although she will probably outlive me!
I loved the C.S. Lewis. I need to read more of him.

All families who undergo an assessment are offered follow-up as part of an agreed package. Further psychological input following a diagnostic or other psychological assessment is negotiable. Families who have benefitted from psychological assessments in the past may re-engage with me in order to address current psychological issues. I am experienced in working individually with children and with adults, working with couples and with families, and in running groups for children and for parents.
One area of follow-up is in helping parents to understand and respond to the challenges of parenting a child with ASD:
Dear Pete, Just to thank you very much for your support today - it really helped me -
just sorry I imposed on you so early … Thank you for being so readily willing to help
us in this crisis."
Parent of adolescent daughter with ASD, November 2009
Another area of follow-up may be in helping a person with ASD to develop their understanding of social situations:
"Thank you for taking the time to send this info. I am looking at it a bit at a time
as one thing leads to another … It certainly makes a whole new world out there
using a different point of view."
Adult with ASD, May 2009
I have also helped couples with ASD in relationship counselling:
"Would it be possible for my husband and I to come and see you for a little
bit of relationship realignment! Just struggling at the moment as our
children have changed to a more local school … and I am not coping with the
issues raised … and am not communicating properly with my husband, therefore
starting a rather unpleasant downward spiral. Hope this makes sense."
Adult with ASD (and parent of children with ASD), January 2009
Another use of psychological input has been in understanding and managing
emotions in children with ASD:
"I really enjoyed last night – the two other ladies are really nice and open so I felt
very comfortable talking to them … [Name] and I really enjoyed our three group sessions with you – thank you very much … Personally I'm starting to really understand that a) this is not something that's going to be magically 'cured' and b)
our own learning is going to be lifelong. I'm also learning what 'coping strategies'
actually are and the huge difference they can make to our day to day lives."

LEXINGTON, KY – G. Watts Humphrey, Jr.'s homebred Romantic Vision staved off retirement for at least one more race, charging home beautifully in a sloppy running of the Grade 1, $500,000 Juddmonte Spinster.
The Spinster is a Breeders' Cup "Win and You're In" event, with Romantic Vision receiving an automatic berth in the $2 million Longines Distaff at Del Mar on Friday, November 3.
Off quickly from post 11 under Brian Hernandez, Jr., Romantic Vision settled into second behind Duchess of Duke through opening fractions of :23.96, :48.26, and 1:12.56. Midway through the far turn, Romantic Vision made her move and edged clear at the top of the stretch, completing the 1 1/8-mile sloppy dirt race in 1:49.70.
"She was there for me the whole way," said Hernandez, Jr. "Her first step was the quickest one away from there and she put us in a great spot. She travelled really good for me the whole way, and going into the second turn, I was really confident in her. She's just really stepped up here her last few races and she seems to be getting better and better."
Martini Glass put forth a challenge off the far turn but was repelled and finished second, 2 lengths behind the winner and 5 1/2 lengths ahead of Blue Prize. Lockdown, You Know Too, Bar of Gold, Duchess of Duke, Tiger Moth, and Factory of Faith completed the order of finish. A Place to Shine, Katalust, Mo d'Amour, and Turkish Tabby were scratched.
While her connections debate making the trip to Del Mar, the 5-year-old daughter of Lemon Drop Kid won her second straight graded stakes race, both times on muddy/sloppy tracks, after coming up empty in four previous attempts. Her record now stands at 19-6-4-2 with career earnings of $610,086.
"I don't know (how she'll like Del Mar)," Arnold said. "I've got to talk to Mr. Humphrey on that one."
Romantic Vision returned $14.80 to win, $7.60 to place, and $5.60 to show. Martini Glass brought back $6.80 to place and $5.20 to show, while Blue Prize paid $4.80 to show.

Bil'in 20/05/2011
Bil'in is a Palestinian village located 12 km west of Ramallah in the West Bank. According to a 2007 census, the village is home to 1800 people. When Israel began constructing the separation barrier in 2003, it soon became clear that most of the village's agricultural lands would be on the other side of the barrier and therefore inaccessible to their owners. In 2005, a local committee was formed in order to organize protests against the land annexation and settlement expansion, as Modi'in Ilit, the closest settlement, was rapidly growing at the expense of Bil'in's lands.
The popular committee launched the first weekly Friday demonstration in January 2005, and over the years, many Israeli and international activists have joined the marches to the site of the wall. In 2007, the court ordered the Israeli government to change the route of the wall, which was finally implemented in 2011, though large tracts of land owned by Bil'in residents remained over the wall.
The Israeli army responded to the weekly protests with massive raids and arrests of local activists, as well as tear gas canisters, rubber-coated steel bullets, "skunk" water and even live rounds fired at protesters. On April 17, 2009, Bassem Abu Rahmeh was killed when an IDF soldier fired a tear gas canister at his chest. His sister, Jawaher Abu Rahmeh, was killed December 31 2010 from inhaling of tear gas fired at the village.

13 Films has partnered with Lantern Entertainment, an affiliate of The Weinstein Co. buyer Lantern Capital Partners, to handle foreign distribution of the Harvey Weinstein-tainted historical epic The Current War.
The film, which focuses on the rivalry between electricity innovators Thomas Edison (played by Benedict Cumberbatch) and George Westinghouse (Michael Shannon), was a casualty in last year's fallout of the revelations about the disgraced movie mogul, who acted as producer on the project.
The partners will also handle the foreign distribution of the unreleased horror pic Polaroid after both titles were acquired through Lantern's acquisition of assets of TWC. Current War also stars Nicholas Hoult, Tom Holland, Katherine Waterston and Tuppence Middleton.

DENVER (CBS4) -Another hot day in Colorado, especially for the eastern side of the state. We had plenty of mid 90s and above! Denver officially hit 96 on Wednesday. We stayed dry for most of the eastern side of the state, but the western slope and high country saw plenty of great precipitation.
The Front Range and plains should start to see an influx of moisture moving into Colorado thanks to the Northwest Monsoon on Thursday. This is an annual reversal of the wind flow pattern over the southwestern United States that typically strengthens for the central Rockies around mid-July into the end of August. This means we tap into some really great moisture, bringing us the chance for some much needed rain.
The monsoon is not a steady flow of moisture but, will have bursts of moisture and breaks of dryness during the summer. Thursday and Friday will be our best chances for heavier rain on and off for eastern Colorado.
We cool off a touch on Friday, but head back to the 90s on Saturday with an isolated chance for storms.
Watch meteorologist Lauren Whitney on CBS4 News on weekday evenings at 5, 6, 6:30 and 10 p.m. Check out her bio, connect with her on Facebook or follow her on Twitter @LaurenCBS4.

A novel by Jessica Blair
The year is 1891. Marie Newton is the daughter of a famous painter, Arthur Newton, and she has inherited much of her father's skill. Luckily, her father is happy to encourage his daughter's talent, agreeing that she may attend a prestigious art school in Paris. Accompanying her on her journey is her best-friend, Lucy, a young widow. The girls find themselves entranced by Paris and each finds a sweetheart, though this does not bring happiness for Lucy. In order to help Lucy recover, Arthur proposes that the girls join him and his wife on a visit to America to visit relatives. But, Arthur's past is about to catch up with him...Edward Clayton is determined to find his real father from whom he has inherited his talent as an artist. His, widowed mother, Colette, is apprehensive about his quest as Arthur Newton, her former lover, is married with a daughter and people could be hurt by the revelations. Edward is, however, determined, following the clues from Whitby to Paris to America where he has to face a tragedy that has left a shattered family.

My last picture from Kaylee before she was headed home!
One night we were a "Parent Pizza Night". It were the families can come once a week to talk about how their babies in the NICU are doing. Since I have been here so long they have been inviting us. Henlee really wanted to throw pennies into the fountains and kept asking to leave so he could. After the dinner we went down to do it. When we came back up, to our surprise a bag full of toys and pennies was on the bed. Henlee was super happy about this!
This was the same night Kaylee was to come home! Although she was suppose to come home the night before, but lightning and weather from Denver to SLC was not clear, they would not allow her on the flight. That made for another long day.
But Matt and Henlee headed to the airport late that night. We got her some Welcome Home gift and decorated the door.
I made a sign for them to take with them. Henlee held it, while waiting for his Sissy! They were so happy to see each other!
When she got here so ran to my arms! I missed her so much! These silly kids couldn't get their giggles out even though it was past midnight! They slept in the same bed, just laughing and joking around! I think I fell asleep before them! That's them fake sleeping BTW.
Henlee likes to organize his toys now. He tends to keep his room clean so I wasn't to surprised when I told him to clean up his toys here, that he put them in organized piles!
Before Machel was headed home, we got a good visit in with her. Kaylee was happy to see her.
Kaylee got to walk over to Henlee's preschool from the hospital to pick him up. She was very helpful and he was so happy to see her!

My name is Merissa Xhelili, and I am an artist who also creates custom-made jewelry.
When did you first begin experimenting with art, and was it a natural talent of yours?
I began experimenting with art for as long as I can remember, I've been drawing and painting since I was a child. I would say it is a natural talent of mine; the art of drawing seems to run in my family.
I love colorful abstracts; according to the organic curves and structured lines, the image paints a different picture to what each person sees, pun intended. However, my favorite method of art is sketching in black and white. It makes the viewer focus on the importance of how dramatic shading and lighting can make a picture appear. My strength is in bringing portraits to life, I have a fascination with faces. One thing I would like to learn more about is photography. I've taken pictures as a hobby, but would like to have more professional experience in this.
How important is expression and inspiration to you? Is it possible to make something from nothing?
Art is where you can express yourself through your own take on reality or a dream you see in your own mind to share with others. I get inspired by the everyday things in life in even the most mundane objects, focusing on the way natural curves and lines are shaped through man-made objects and in nature.
Have you ever had your art displayed at a gallery or event?
I've had my drawings and paintings displayed in the College of Staten Island's gallery, as well as in Snug Harbor's gallery.
Do you get commissioned for projects or are you working on your own stuff?
I do get commissioned by people coming to me for various art projects. I also work on my own for enjoyment and to keep adding to my portfolio.
Tell us a little bit about your jewelry work and start up.
About a year ago, I made a unique necklace I had in mind but could not find in stores. I received many compliments on it and people asked me if I could make other pieces as well, and it began a snowball effect from there. For both women and men, I make pieces that have an artistic flair to them which makes it different from what you would find it stores.
You are currently storyboarding a project, tell us a little about that.
I am currently working on a storyboard and concept art design for an independent film project which is currently still a work in progress.
Do you think there are any similarities in being an artist and a musician? Why or why not?
I think there are definitely similarities between art and music; I feel they go hand in hand. Both are created by people expressing themselves through an art form. I know that music is an extremely important part of my life, and it inspires me totally. I can't create art without listening to music that speaks to my soul, just as musicians see the beauty in art and become inspired to put that inspiration into song.
What is the most rewarding thing about being an artist?
Being an artist, you do not feel chained to your work. You have the ultimate freedom to create and sometimes even a mistake can become a happy accident, becoming the most interesting part of the piece.
What are your future plans as an artist and where do you see yourself in a few years?
I am currently a freelance artist and hopefully will become more successful with my jewelry line. Within the next few years, I would love to design album covers for bands, combining two of my favorite passions together.
Anything else you'd like to add?
Contact me if you need an artist for a project or want to purchase custom-made jewelry. And to the bands out there, if you are interested in me designing an album cover or accessories for your band merch!

The Making of Us
In a hospice in Bury St Edmunds, a man called Daniel is slowly fading away. His friend Maggie sits with him every day; she holds his hand and she listens to the story of his life, to his regrets and to his secrets. And then he tells her about the children he has never met and never will. He talks of them wistfully.
Lydia, Dean and Robyn don't know each other. Yet. And they are all facing difficult changes. Lydia is still wearing the scars from her traumatic childhood and although she is wealthy and successful, her life is lonely and disjointed. Dean is a young man, burdened with unexpected responsibility, whose life is going nowhere. And Robyn wants to be a doctor, just like her father - a man she's never met. But is her whole life built on an illusion?
Three people leading three very different lives. All lost. All looking for something. But when they slowly find their way into each other's lives, everything starts to change.

Last weekend I drove up to Tehachapi, CA to spend an afternoon driving around, exploring, and taking pictures. The weekend before I was driving on CA 58 for the first time ever and was blown away by the natural beauty of land near Tehachapi and the Tejon Ranch. I was on my way to a family session and didn't have time to stop - so I came back a week later.
This area is now officially on my list of favorite places in California. I wish I could go back in time and see what our state looked like before people came and built crap all over the place. Untouched places like this give us a glimpse into the beautiful California we have lost. I can't wait to go back and explore some more.
Here are my favorites from the day. It was raining a bit in the early afternoon which led to some cool lighting, cloud-filled sky's, a few rainbows, and a sweet sunset! I lucked out in choosing to go that day...Enjoy!

This article by H. Pringel was published in The Pathfinder (Valdez) in that magazine's April 1921 issue. It describes two decades of placer gold mining in the Koyukuk River drainage. Most of the boomtowns established in the heady days of 1898 and 1899 have disappeared, but Wiseman, Coldfoot, and the ghost town of Old Bettles still exist as reminders of the region's gold mining past.
The history of mining on the Koyukuk River apparently dates back no further than the year 1898. In this year about seventy small steamers made their way up the river to the sites of the present towns of Bergman, Bettles and other points along the river. These were loaded with prospectors, who in most instances, owned their boats. Most of these prospectors were from the eastern States with a scattering of old timers, and to these latter is undoubtedly due the fact that the fleet succeeded in reaching six hundred miles or more up the river.
Many of the Eastern men, unused to the hardships incident to a trip of this character, through a practically unknown region, and discouraged by the desolate appearance of the country, at once abandoned the enterprise and returned to the States before winter should overtake them. Many of them abandoned their boats, taking passage down the stream with others, while many left their boats in charge of friends who, more courageous, remained behind to try their luck in the unknown country into which they had penetrated. As a result, here and there along the river banks may be seen the bleaching bones of little steamers which once formed a part of the gallant fleet which bore the first stampeders to the Koyukuk.

I've been so busy over the last two weeks that I'm trying to hurry and catch up!
I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas, filled with relaxation, delicious food and lots of love!
This is the first Christmas away from my family, so I was definitely sad to not join in our Christmas traditions. But the beaches and golf courses in San Diego isn't anything to be sad about, no matter the time of year!
Christmas Eve we drove to Lake Forest, CA to hear the most AMAZING preacher, Rick Warren. I've written multiple posts about how Rick Warren has changed my life, so it was such a blessing to hear him in person on Christmas Eve!
Driving through Saddleback was like driving on a college campus. But navigating was pretty easy because we pretty much just followed traffic.
Before I got out of the car I had to remind myself that I was going to church, not a concert. I couldn't go crazy wild and scream when Pastor Rick came out on stage, and I couldn't cheer for an encore afterwards. Turns out that both of those things required all of my self control.
Walking up to the worship center we saw that the kids had a play area with fake snow and sledding.
With Christmas lights everywhere, we walked up to the worship center, which was beautifully decorated.
I nearly hyperventilated as I walked into the worship center. It was really big, seating 1,900 people.
The service began and worship was beautiful, bringing tears to my eyes multiple times.
Pastor Rick came out! I grabbed my husband's knee and squealed, as I again reminded myself that I couldn't act like I as at a concert. You'd judge me if I posted all of the iPhone burst shots I took of him.
His message was perfect, as always.
At the end, the worship team came back out as we sang Silent Night, which is my favorite Christmas song! Then I noticed Pastor Rick pointed to the big window at the side of the sanctuary, so I glanced over and noticed they had fake snow falling outside the building… so precious 🙂
I may or may not have cried when it was over.
Since it was Christmas Eve we couldn't find a place to eat… until we came across the California staple.
In-N-Out Burger. We have one about 3 miles from where I live, but when in Cali…
Since we were traveling and staying at a hotel, I mentioned to the hubs that this would be my first Christmas without a tree on Christmas morning. But Christmas morning I woke up to my present under the tree.
Seriously, how sweet is he?
I FaceTimed with my family,
then drank my annual Starbucks in front of the fireplace (ahem… TV).
The hubs gave me the BEST photo album of my marathon photos! I definitely cried when I opened this.
Then drank mimosas while watching "It's a Wonderful Life," my all-time favorite Christmas movie.
I may have sent my Christmas card out a little late this year…
Then we headed to a nearby golf course.
It may have been Southern California, but it was COLD and I only lasted 6 holes, so I became the official photographer of the round.
It was SUPER cold as the sun began to set, but God painted a beautiful sunset.
This is the view of the ocean from the golf course.
Then we had dinner at a restaurant on the resort's property.
It was a Christmas to remember, that's for sure! I felt so blessed, especially being able to see Rick Warren speak in person. When I was first diagnosed with MS I started to think of all the things I hoped to accomplish while I was still in good health. Hearing Rick speak was one of them. I feel so blessed.
I hope your Christmas was as blessed as mine!

Muhammad Nawaz
Head of Urdu, Community Liaison Officer, Jack Hunt School, United Kingdom
Urdu at Home is an excellent online and independent tool to aid student revision; helping them to learn important vocabulary. The thing I love most about Urdu@Home is that it's a fun and easy way to learn Urdu. The layout of it is very well done so it is very easy to use.
Abdul Musaib
Urdu Teacher, City High School, Wakefield, West Yorkshire, UK
I have been using the 'Urduathome' website since the beginning of the academic year. I have found that pupils really enjoy the stories, morals and tasks that are provided by the website. I appreciate all types of websites working towards making Urdu more accessible to teachers and learners. However, 'Urduathome' stands out for several reasons. The website provides interactive materials with printable activities and each task includes a variety of activities to suit various learners' needs. This helps pupils develop gradually and learn at their own pace. I have also been extremely impressed by the constant hard work demonstrated by the website in developing additional resources for Key Stage Three and Four. Initially, when I saw the website, the charges seemed fairly high but in my personal experience it has been money very well spent by my school. 'Urduathome' has provided everyone with an enjoyable way to learn and supports individuals superbly in their transition from one level to another.
Vancouver, Canada
Urdu at Home is a commendable initiative which has provided valuable tool to parents living abroad to teach Urdu to their children. The interactive and thoughtful design of the various courses make it easier and fun for the kids to adapt to this program. It is a great service to the promotion of Urdu language and the results will be evident in the years to come.
Qudsia Lone
Living abroad, it's a real challenge for Pakistanis to teach Urdu to their kids. It's so wonderful to see my kids actually enjoying their Urdu lessons working with eShagird. The high quality graphics and audio are perfect for children used to western education. I can't wait for my kids to move through the program and gain literacy in Urdu. I'm truly grateful that someone has taken the time to put so much hard work and effort into creating this wonderful program that was so desperately needed.
Mariam Alsikafi
Chicago, IL, USA
Urdu at home is the most innovative and child friendly curriculum I have seen. It has developed in my son and his friends a love for the Urdu language and a genuine desire to learn. The program is creative and embraces technology to bring parents like me a much needed tool. I cannot stress enough the quality of the content and the impact that it has on a young mind. Thank you for making my life easier and my child's life richer.
Savera Khan
Saint Louis, MS, USA
First of all I would like to comment on this wonderful idea of creating a website to help children learn Urdu. It is a very helpful tool in teaching children their native language, especially when one is residing abroad. The website's general layout is impeccable, and the eSHAGRID is very child oriented, making it a huge hit with us! I just received the 2nd week's lesson and homework assignment in my mailbox today. Once again, very pleased to see that someone has taken the time out to build this website focusing on Urdu language, with age appropriate curriculum and immediate feedback system. Keep up the good work!
Dr. Anis Farooqui
Congratulations on creating a wonderful resource for parents like me desperate to ensure that the next generation learns their mother tongue and gains a better understanding of their heritage. I am an Indian medic settled in the UK and was looking for Urdu resources when I came across your site and promptly registered.
Sheraz Ali, (Teacher)
PGCE MFL (Modern Foreign Language - UK)
Urdu at home is just a fantastic website to learn, speak and promote Urdu language around the globe. All activities and worksheets revolves around four key language skills; listening, speaking, reading and writing. eShagird is an interactive tool to learn and teach Urdu and has made learning Urdu fun for me and my students. It's fulfilled the modern learning requirements and caters to visual and auditory learners. Not only that, it also offers periodic skill assessment tests to keep learners on track. Congratulations to Urdu at home team for providing such a wonderful and user friendly website. The website is not only good for students but also has meaningful activities for parents, teachers and trainee teachers. I would highly recommend this website to all Urdu speaking communities in the world to preserve and promote their heritage.

We were looking for a comprehensive Urdu curriculum for our students which were educational as well as entertaining for children growing up with Nick Jr. "Urdu at home" provided us with such a curriculum. Kids love the system.

I have been trying to find a way of teaching my kids (six and nine) to read and write Urdu. I came across "Urdu at home," which I think is a wonderful website. It has easy modules, along with weekly assignments through "eshagird." My kids love the cartoon characters and the coloring exercises. It is fun for me as well. Before, I had to beg them to come and learn Urdu with me. Now they want to get on the website and start doing the "fun stuff." I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants their kids to learn Urdu. I applaud all those who have worked hard to come up with this website. Keep it up and continue to improve it.

I can not thank you enough for such a wonderful program. My almost 5 year old son loves it and continues to grow with it. It's such an asset to have when you are abroad. I can actually teach my children Urdu and feel closer to home. Thank you so much!

How do I get my children to speak and read Urdu? How do I make them more comfortable and communicative when we go to Pakistan? And how do I pass on the beauty of the Urdu language to them? These were some of the questions I had been struggling with for some time. I believe I have found the answer with email@example.com. I subscribed to this website and my 8 year old daughter was hooked! She found she could follow the lessons easily because the alphabet and the words were given in Roman Urdu as well as in the Arabic script. She moved at her own pace, practiced the lessons on her own time and without going to a formal class and had fun playing the interactive games. I even found her reading out some of the words to her 4 year old sister!
I found the website to be not only an excellent teaching tool, but a great bargain too. At $15 a month for the premium membership, I have access to a professional-style program in the convenience of my own home. Best of all, I don't have to drive 20 minutes on a Sunday morning to take my children to Urdu classes! The money I save just on gas pays for the membership many times over.

Fun Fridays! CVS Sales and More!
Hello Divas!
I hope your week has been fantastic! It is cold again in Atlanta, in the 20s!! Whoo!
Well it is Fun Fridays and time to talk about things that are fun….like shopping! LOL!
My favorite drugstore, CVS, is having some great sales on Make-Up. All Rimmel Cosmetics are buy one get one 50% off. Select Loreal Products are $5 with a CVS card. Revlon has a sale on its Photo Ready Foundation. This foundation is all the rage and I can't wait to try it out! It is only $12 with a CVS card.
Although I have tons of makeup, I feel like I need new make-up. You have to keep it new and fresh! Currently I am having a pink obsession and I want the perfect pink lip gloss or lip stick. Pink just makes me think of Spring and Sundresses! I am going to check out the colors below this weekend.
Lancome Bronze Heat. A bronzy-pink color. Love it!
Mac Cosmetics Viva Glam GaGa. A true pink! Love the packaging!
Chanel's Rouge Coco Lipstick in Mademoiselle. A dark luxurious pink!
I am trying all 3 and will get one or maybe two. We will see. Which one you think would look best on me? I have an idea, but I will try them first!

NatGeo expands Morgan Freeman's 'Story' Franchise from God to Man in 'The Story of Us'
06 October 2017
NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC CHANNEL, Oct. 11, 9:00 PM ET
By Lori Acken
Several years ago, Morgan Freeman and his producing partners Lori McCreary and James Younger traveled the globe to explore the uniting power of faith for National Geographic's smart and intensely moving The Story of God With Morgan Freeman, which bowed in 2016. Critically acclaimed and Emmy-nominated, the series debuted a shorter second season last January, even as the group was already at work on another approach to spotlighting global unity in a time where we can't even get along with our neighbors.
The result is The Story of Us, airing Wednesdays beginning on Oct. 11. "We realized that religion is just one aspect of what keeps human society together," Younger explains. "Love is a primal scaffolding in human society. Power and leadership — how people organize themselves into groups where they can be effective. That has been a constant. War and peace, same — a constant thing.
"[The Story of Us] is about bonds between people," he continues. "What do we agree to do together? What do we yearn for together? What do we struggle with each other about?" And equally important to understanding the concept of us, adds Freeman, "Why do we develop these bonds? And what if people don't bond?"
Thus, the "root of all evil" — money — enters the picture in several of the six Story of Us episodes. "Money does different things," Freeman muses. "If I've got enough of it, I have an awful lot of control over you and your life. Awful lot. And that's always caused rebellion. You've got all these have-nots starting to boil — and when that boils over, it's gonna force a leveling. I think that's in our future."
But, Freeman reiterates, The Story of Us is about humanity — not the stuff we buy and build. "How do we define civilization? What is it really?" the 80-year-old icon offers. "When we say civilization, most of the time we mean cities and vehicles — what we see when we go out in the streets. But, when you go into the world, you find civilization in the jungle. The Amish say, 'We don't need that to live.' And there are whole other groups of people who say the same thing: 'We don't need the trappings of civilization. We're civilized.'"
On a personal level, Freeman calls the opportunity to explore the better part of human nature "life-assuring and self-assuring. Life is just a series of plateaus," he smiles. "If you keep reaching for the next one up, you're having a good time!"

Calling Out White Supremacy Comes With Consequences For Black Folks
Shouldn't it have consequences? Are there any consequences if a white FOLK makes a racial against a black FOLK. You bet you sweet little booty there is.
Take off the halo Mr. Jones, don't try to put the whole thing on the honkies. Every fool that partakes in bigotry is as guilty as the next. .
I can tell you from where I sit; I believe that the blacks are far more prejudice then the whites are. Why may you ask. There is a particular, passive/non-combative white culture out there that eats and sleeps being PC, only because it is fashionable. These white FOLKS stand on their heads and gargle peanut butter to conform/sympathize or agree with the black community. Many of them capitulate, not because they totally agree with the cause but because they are wondering sheep craving to be part of a movement.
Do the blacks have good causes for their feelings in many cases?? They most certainly do IF they want to keep living in the past. I must agree that there still are issues that exist today that are in dire need need of repair. Those situations should be on the top of the to do list for our government. Any intelligent person knows, we can not change history but we can make a better tomorrow. Intelligent is the key word.
There can't ever be any progress in that direction if people insist on reliving the past. Don't forget the past but use it as a barometer on what not to do in the future. To me that is very logical. Living in the past is counter productive.
This hatred thing between races will never cool off until there is no white or black race. I will call it the COMBO race. Sounds like a very appropriate handle to me. Kind of has a ring to it. COMBO race. Not black, not white but COMBO.
The COMBO race is creeping up on us like a slow moving fog in the night. Possibly; all of the subliminal cramming the media is doing MAY have a positive effect 50 years from now.
Everyone laughed and became irritated at the recording years back; press 1 for English and 2 for Spanish. It did not take too may years until that message became reversed in may areas. 1 for Spanish and 2 for English.
Point being; what was ABSOLUTELY taboo years ago (mixed couples) has become more and more prevalent and accepted by many. That can be the answer to long range to peace between the races. What used to be punishable by lynching in this country just a few years back is as common place as peanut butter and jelly. Is it a good thing? That all depends on who is asked. BUT it may be the answer to race relations.
If mankind can hang in there long enough without killing one-other, possible what was taboo way back, COMBO will be the salvation in the future??
Mr Jones has to understand; racial slurs by anyone, white – black – yellow, green or COMBO should not be tolerated. Think what you want BUT watch your mouth boys and girls!!
This princess Jemele Hill should not be given a pass because of her skin color. If the situation was reversed, there would have been no question as to the end result. There would have been demonstratings all over the country and needless to say; all of the white PC-ers would be standing tall on the picket lines.
That one way bus ticket out of town I talked about yesterday, still has her name on it.

(Not so) Baby Santi turns 3!
Graciela Saldivia
Hi guys! Graci here. I wanted to share with you that my (not so) little baby Santiago turned three years old on February 22nd! It's really incredible that such a long time has passed since he was so tiny, he fit in my forearm. Now he's a "big boy" (he makes sure to clarify this to me every time I call him "my baby") that I can barely carry for longer than a few minutes!
My little Santi is such a funny and strong guy! He came to this world 100% healthy, which was an unbelievable blessing that took me a while to fully take in, since his big brother Joaquin has a genetic condition called Glycogen Storage Disease, type 9. Thankfully, by now, we have pretty much a full handle of Joaquin's treatment, but back when he was a newborn, finding out that he had the disease was pretty overwhelming and scary. All these six years later, Joaquin is living a full healthy life, and even though we, mama and papa, are proud of the treatment's success, we are also exhausted from all the sleep deprivation and constant monitoring that are needed so that he can be as healthy as possible. If you want to know more about Joaquin and his condition, you can read about it here.
Back to Santi! As I was saying, him being born healthy felt like a dream! Doctors were telling me I could put him to bed and not having to wake him up in the middle of the night for the usual cornstarch and protein "cocktail"? What? And that he could have a normal diet, without risking a seizure if a meal wasn't healthy enough or if it was skipped because he was sick or just not hungry? Really? I'm not kidding when I say it took a while to take in. And I thank God every single day for allowing me to know both sides of motherhood, because without knowing first-hand the hardships of having a child with special needs, who knows if I'd be as aware of what a true blessing and a miracle it is to have one without them.
And so, Santi is growing up a happy and spoiled child, because he not only has mama and papa wrapped around his finger, but also, big brother Joaquin -"ñaño", as he calls him- is always taking care of him and letting him do pretty much everything he wishes! And for that, Joaquin is Santi's true idol. The way they love each other simply melts my heart.
Santi might be a young toddler and the baby of the house, but you wouldn't know it by the way he talks and expresses himself. He will let you know about how he feels about EVERYTHING, which sometimes can be awkward and hilarious, as he is just now understanding the concept of filters and discretion.
Anyway, I don't mean to bore you any longer with my testament how a mama feels about her baby. Let me just finish by saying something that you've probably heard a trillion times: Even though I am tired, I am also happy; I might feel overwhelmed, but I also feel blessed; and when I get short of patience, I remind myself to give an excess of thanks, because I wouldn't change one single aspect of my kids or my family for anything in the world. I am the lucky one.
Happy birthday baby Santi. Thank you for being in my life, or better said, thank you for BEING my life.

2017 Mercedes Benz E Class Release - Mercedes Cars Review
2017 mercedes benz c class, 2017 mercedes benz e class coupe, 2017 mercedes benz g class, 2017 mercedes benz glk, 2017 mercedes benz gls
Welcome to Raiacars.com, The next review about 2017 Mercedes Benz E Class Release from Mercedes cars. Let's see more specification, concept and review details for this cars below.
2017 Mercedes Benz E Class Release, The 2017 model is going to receive an all new set of engines which are going to be more fuel efficient, more powerful as well as less noisy than what you can get in the current generation. This will please pretty much all of its buyers because the E Class needs the quietness. The price of the car hasn't been announced yet because it is quite early in the production process, but it will most likely cost not much more than the standard C Class, meaning you will probably be able to get one for as low as 37.000 dollars.Engine wise, there will be a couple of differences over the C Class, mostly in the power department. The base engine in the E Class is likely going to be a 240 to 270 horsepower 2 liter turbocharged petrol engine, while a 3 liter V6 with around 350 horsepower should be available for not much extra. These two engines will come with a brand new automatic 9 speed gearbox which will be smooth, fast and responsive, so it will be just perfect for this luxury sedan. Thanks to the modular chassis, the car will be available either with rear wheel drive or all wheel drive.
