Not lost like you don’t know where you are, but lost like you forgot what you are doing, that you are supposed to be going somewhere?
Not knowing where you are is easy – you just keep going until you find your way again or turn around and go back where you came from.
Forgetting that you are traveling is terrible – most of the time you don’t know how thoroughly lost you are.
My friend and I walked on together toward the East, each bearing our own spiders. I never became comfortable with my new unwelcome companion, but my traveling partner provided some comfort.
We walked until the forest ended. As the trees began to thin, the path descended down into a valley that led between two sheer cliff faces. The path coming out of the forest was clear and surrounded by green foliage; the path going into the valley was desolate and littered with boulders.
“Are you sure this is the way?” I asked my friend.
“No,” my friend replied, never slowing down, “but it is the path we are on, and I think it is the right way.”
I followed my friend toward the shadowy valley.
As we approached the valley, we saw people on each cliff face. They were yelling at people on the other cliff and throwing large rocks at them.
“People must not go into this valley!” the people on the South side screamed. “This is the valley of death!” They threw rocks at the people on the other side.
“This valley is the only way to the East!” the people on the North side screamed back. “People must get through the valley or they will never get where they are going!” They threw rocks back at the people on the other side.
As we approached, I was almost hit with a rock. I shudder to think of what would have happened if it had hit me.
“We should keep our heads down and not get drawn in to the fight,” my friend replied.
“But the people on the South side are trying to keep people from traveling to the East,” I reasoned. “They have to be stopped! They almost hit me!”
“The people on the North side are also throwing rocks,” my friend said. “They both need to stop, and they are both keeping people from traveling to the East.”
Since my friend was obviously wrong, I picked up the rock that almost hit me and walked to the northern cliff face. Another rock shattered near my head. I screamed an insult and threw my rock at someone on the southern cliff face.
My spider whispered something, but I could not hear it.
“Stop throwing rocks!” I yelled to the southern cliff face. I picked up another rock and threw it. Someone on the other side yelled something back.
I smiled toward my friend, but could not find them. I searched frantically for a few seconds, but a flying rock made me duck for cover. I threw a rock back.
“Come help me!” I called to my friend. The only response was another rock exploding near my face.

Blinding, bright white.
Have you ever thought you were dead?
More than being afraid because you don’t know what’s ahead, you feel so…exposed.
That is what is frightening about the “light at the end of the tunnel” – not that you don’t know what you will see, but that everyone there will see you.
The blinding light flooded my eyes while they were still closed.
My back and neck and head throbbed.
I realized I was lying on my back, and that someone was speaking to me.
Maybe I wasn’t dead after all.
“…right…fraid…here,” a voice said.
As I opened my eyes, warm tears streamed out and down the sides of my face. I quickly closed my eyes. I was looking straight up into the sky, and the sun was at its zenith.
“Rest,” said the voice. “But don’t open your eyes.”
I took the voice’s advice.
When I next awoke, the sun frolicked in the leaves to the West, but I still felt exposed.
I opened my eyes to the softer green light.
“Please try to stay calm. I am here with you,” the voice said.
I lay looking up at the shifting green light and my vision started to clear.
“You were bitten by a spider,” my new friend said.
“I know,” I replied. “I saw it right before I felt the bite.”
“It’s good that you saw it. The spider is big enough that, if you hadn’t seen it first, it would have killed you. That’s how these things work – if you can’t see them, they are deadly.”
“I’m glad I saw it, then,” I replied, still sore and weak. “Where did the spider go?”
“Don’t be afraid,” my friend said. “These things don’t just leave when you see them. They stay around for a long time.” My friend touched my hand and looked in my eyes.
My friend looked concerned.
“The spider is still on you.”
“Get it off!” I screamed, scrambling backward on my hands and feet. I looked down at my chest and saw it there, looking up at me, inches away from my face. “GET IT OFF!”
“I can’t!” my friend yell back. “Please calm down! I have a spider too. If you are calm and pay attention to them, they hardly ever bite.”
“I want it off me!” I yelled, trying to brush the beast from my chest. Before I hit it, it darted quickly down to my stomach and back up to my heart.
“It won’t come off you,” my friend said. “I’m sorry.”
The spider sat on my chest, looked at me. I looked back.
“Just make sure you keep seeing it,” my friend said. “I’ve had mine for years. It almost becomes a kind of traveling companion. Not a friend, exactly, but someone who is honest with you. My spider…whispers…to me. I know that sounds weird, but she keeps me…honest.”
“I don’t want a spider,” I pleaded, to my spider or my friend or both.
“I know,” said my friend. “But you have one.”
I slowly stood up, and my spider crawled up on my left shoulder and seemed to settle there.
“Walk with me for a while,” my friend offered. “We can talk.”
“Thank you,” I said, eyeing my spider. “I would really like that.”

Though I had cleared the spider web and the trees, the monkey kept repeating, “The spider is on you. The spider will kill you.”
I continued walking until I could not hear the monkey anymore and surveyed my surroundings.
The road was much the same as it had been on the other side of the web, with forest on either side of the road. I saw other webs off in the trees, but only the web I had already crawled under got near my path.
I searched again every place I could see or reach on my body; still I found no spider. I decided to keep walking and assumed the monkey was wrong.
As I walked, other travelers came up behind me. One of them said, “Hey, there is a spider on your shoulder.” I brushed my shoulder quickly, but hit nothing. I bushed the other shoulder to the same result.
“You must have picked up that joke from the monkey,” I replied with a knowing smile.
“What monkey?” the fellow traveler replied. “You just missed the spider. It’s on your back now.”
“Get it off!” I shouted, hitting my jacket against my back.
“I can’t!” she shouted back, “it’s too fast! You keep missing it by just an inch every time!”
“Stop,” I said, realizing the trick. “You’re goading me just like that monkey by the web did.”
“I never saw a monkey or a web,” she replied. “I’m sorry. There really is a spider on you, and I think it’s biting you.”
“Ha, ha,” I replied, done with the conversation.
“Good luck,” she replied. She and her companions walked on.
As I continued walking through the forest toward what I thought was the East, I found myself out of breath and tired. Several groups of travelers passed, all warning me of the same thing: there is a spider on me. I never saw or touched the spider, so I never believed them.
As days went on, the warnings became more urgent. “There is a pretty big spider on you, friend!” Still, I could never feel or see the spider. I decided they were crazy.
Eventually I ignored the warnings. “Um, there is a pretty big spider on you.”
“Oh, hi. How are you doing?”
“I’m okay, but there is a pretty scary spider on your back!”
“This is the way to the East, right?”
“Uh, yeah, I think so. Good luck with that spider.”
“Happy travels to you!”
After days of walking in the forest, the unexpected happened.
Out of the corner of my eye, on my left shoulder, a spider leg came into view, right as searing pain burned into my neck.
After was only darkness.

I continued to travel toward the East, confident I could make progress and eventually arrive.
I tried a number of paths off the main road, but they all led to dead ends or circled back toward the West.
The problem was that the main road I was on eventually narrowed to no more than a footpath, across which a spider had built an enormous web. I do not like spiders, and there was no way around, so I backtracked to find another path that led East.
There was none. Every path lead to a dead-end or circled back toward the West.
And so I came at last, all other routes exhausted, to stand before the spider web that crossed the path I needed to travel. A monkey sat nearby, to the left of the web.
I looked beside the path to see if I could edge around the web. The trees and underbrush were thick. “You can’t go that way,” a voice said.
I looked around. There was only me, the small spider on the web, and the monkey, who looked like she was asleep.
I looked at the spider. “She will kill you,” said the voice from the left.
I looked at the monkey. She still sat with her eyes closed.
“I need to get around this web,” I said to the monkey. She did not respond. “There has to be a way around it.”
The monkey opened her eyes and looked at me. “You can’t go around it,” said the monkey, “and if you get close to the spider, she will kill you.”
I was surprised the monkey was so insistent that the spider was deadly. The spider just looked like a common garden spider.
“I am going to get around this web,” I said to the monkey. “Will you help me?”
“The spider will kill you,” said the monkey.
“I’m beginning to think you aren’t very smart,” I replied.
I continued to try to find a way around the narrow spot in the road to circumvent the spider and its web. “You can’t go that way,” the monkey said periodically.
I tried to squeeze through some trees on the right. “You can’t go…”
I glared at the monkey as I untangled myself from the trees.
I looked at the web and realized there was some clearance near the ground. I could shimmy under the web and hopefully not disturb the spider.
I approached the web and started to crawl. “The spider will kill you,” said the monkey.
I continued to crawl, my head going under the web.
“The spider will KILL you,” the monkey said again.
I continued to crawl, my shoulders clearing the web.
“The SPIDER will KILL YOU,” the monkey said.
I pulled my legs out from under the web, standing up on the other side.
“THE SPIDER WILL KI…”
“I’VE CLEARED THE WEB, YOU STUPID MONKEY!” I yelled back.
“The spider is on you,” the monkey almost whispered. “The spider will kill you.”
I looked at the web. The spider was not there.
I took my jacket off and shook it vigorously, hoping that if the spider was on it, she would fall off. I rubbed my hands through my hair, down my arms and chest and legs, and across my shoulders and lower back, hoping to dislodge the spider. Nothing fell off me. I started to think the monkey was trying to trick me.
“The spider is on you,” the monkey said with sadness in her voice.
“The spider is NOT on me,” I told the monkey, slapping my jacket across my back to make sure. “She probably just climbed up one of these trees because of all your screaming.”
“The spider will kill you,” the monkey lamented.
I shook my head and began to travel the road beyond the web. I had cleared one of the biggest obstacles on my travel to the East, and I wasn’t going to let the monkey discourage me.
What does a monkey know, anyway?

I continued walking and other paths began to intersect with my path. I met people traveling these paths.
Some people walked with me on my path for a while. We traveled together; we enjoyed each other’s company; we ate together; we kept each other safe at night. These people became my traveling companions. Sometimes we would walk together for days. Sometimes our paths would only intersect for a few hours. I cherished each companion for as long as we traveled together and never forgot one after our paths diverged.
As we traveled together, we noticed that the land far to the east was lush with vegetation and partitioned by meandering streams. The land in the distance to the west seemed perpetually overcast, even during the day, and dotted with skeletal trees and little shelter. My companions and I decided to try to travel to the land to the east. We could make a home there, find food there, live in peace there.
Some people crossed paths with me and my companions and told us we were going the wrong way.
“You should seek the land to the east!” one exclaimed. “Anyone trying to go west cannot be a good and sane person!”
“My friends and I are trying to go east,” I explained. “Are we going the wrong direction?”
“You are!” the stranger warned. “The path you are on will take you west!”
We thanked the stranger and turned around. After only a few minutes, another stranger yelled at us, “Monsters! You are headed toward the dark land!”
“We were told this is the path that leads to the east,” I explained, trying to calm the situation.
“You are wrong! You are trying to trick me! I will not follow you!” the stranger bellowed, running off in the direction we had just come from.
How are we to know how to go east if no matter which way we go we are told we are wrong?
My companions and I decided to do our best to head in the direction of the place we wanted to go.

Left Turn :: Virage à Gauche: Can capitalism liberate women? / from Socialist Action, January 23, 2017
Can capitalism liberate women? / from Socialist Action, January 23, 2017
A new women’s movement, visible through massive marches like the one on Jan. 21, independent of the corporate parties, and committed to strengthening and interacting with the movements of labor, immigrant rights, and for Black Lives, must shape the agenda of that majority so that the material potential will become social reality. The most direct way to become part of the process is to join a socialist group. Top photo: To make up for the World War II labor shortage, women in North America were recruited into the factories, but pushed out after the war. Below: An Iroquois woman and child.

Above the Bow Brook: A cold coming we had of it, just the worst time of the year. T.S. Eliot. “Journey of the Magi.”
A cold coming we had of it, just the worst time of the year. T.S. Eliot. “Journey of the Magi.”
I know that it’s unfair on the Feast of the Epiphany to mis-quote T.S.Eliot but it seemed an apt line to introduce what the American media are describing as a “Polar Vortex,” (CNN, NBC and Fox News) and a “Major Arctic Outbreak,” (The Weather Channel.)
Yes, it’s going to be very cold for two days - although not as frigid on Long Island as it is going to be in parts of inland United States. I’m not going to predict minus numbers (numbers in both senses of the word) because the smarter meteorologists are very good at doing that and getting very excited as computer animations swiftly turn blue on the screens behind them. But I am going to suggest that if everybody is sensible and looks out for their neighbor then, guess what? We are going to survive this temporary deep freeze.
Growing up in a large and rambling country vicarage in the 1960s English Midlands we knew all about low winter temperatures. They announced their arrival in late December and stayed until early March. And even if the sun shone the dark passageways of the house never truly thawed out. Because except in two rooms (maybe three) there was nothing to thaw them out.
The two warmer spots were my father’s study, where a huge coal fire burned from dawn until dusk, and the kitchen. And it was there that the family met, ate, read, did homework and generally lived during our waking hours, for the kitchen contained a wonderful coal-burning Rayburn – a stove that not only cooked food and warmed the whole room, but also heated water for washing and hot drinks.
And that, devotees of central heating, was that. I mentioned a third room: The living room did have a small, two bar electric fire in the closed-up fireplace. But what good was that in a room that measured about four hundred square feet? And the upstairs? Heat upstairs? Unthinkable, even when the ice formed on the inside of the bedroom windows and the blankets had to be properly aired or else they would also stiffen up in the cold. We dressed for bed, and dressed some more in the morning.
And even when temperatures dropped well below seasonal expectations – I really don’t recall it being a news story.

baltimore etsy street team: Creativity Everywhere, Even in Your Lunch Box
I found something beautiful today. It's not handmade. It's not "crafted." But it is thoughtfully constructed of durable materials. What is it, you ask? A lunchbox. More specifically, a PlanetBox. It's marketed to parents packing lunches for their kids, of which I have none (except the imaginary kind). But I think it will be perfect for packing my own lunches.For me, living creatively means bringing creativity and beauty to everything I do, including making lunches. Eating a great lunch is as much about the taste and smell as it is about the colors and the forms. For years, I have been carefully packing individual elements into separate containers for assembly just before eating at the office. Making lunch is a bit like sketching in my sketchbook. It's clearly not as involved as making dinner or putting together a brunch, but the process is just as important.The bento box approach of PlanetBox allows you to create a work of art in the morning and enjoy it's creativity the moment you open the box on your desk. The stainless steel frames everything perfectly making it look absolutely delicious. Lunch becomes a small work of art waiting for you to enjoy it. Not only that, it eliminates all the plastic tubs and individually packed cheeses. That means less trash and toxins.PlanetBox looks like the perfect canvas for a creative lunch!Photos are from AnotherLunch.com where I first discovered this fabulous contraption.Written by Megan of VanWagonerStudios

Sindhu at REFUEL: The Exercise – Eating Story!
The Exercise – Eating Story!
Do you go to workout early in the morning? Or do you go after work in the evening? Do you feel hungry during the workout? Or do you get low on energy just minutes after starting the workout?
Majority of us fit into at least one of the category, with exceptions ofcourse!
For best results, it is advisable to eat something light but complex carbohydrates like chapati, bread, oatmeal cookies, salad one-hour before the workout. Complex carbohydrates ensure that blood sugar levels are maintained over a long time which means, you have a steady flow of energy. Fatty, sugary foods like biscuits, cakes, chocolates cause instant rise in blood sugar levels but they come down equally quickly! So, after the instantaneous ‘feel-good’ feeling, the blood again goes low on sugar and on energy and you might feel hungry!
Incase you workout early in the morning or you get hungry very close to workout timing, eat a simple carbohydrate like an apple or light fruits, so as to maintain the blood sugar levels and energy during the workout.
Avoid taking in milk or other protein foods just before workout, since proteins have long digestion times and tend to remain in the stomach, causing a heavy feeling. Proteins have their basic function as building blocks of the body, and hence it makes sense to eat them after working out, which is when the body is constantly working to produce energy.
In case you have a strength training workout coming up, then it is best to eat a high protein - medium carbohydrate diet around 3-4 hours before workout for optimum results. In case you workout late at night, remember to eat an early dinner at around 7 pm to maintain blood sugar levels, and avoid binge-eating post-workout which will also be late night! The body metabolism is very sluggish by night and hence the tendency of the body to store food as fat is very high! Post-workout, try to eat some fruits, salads or soups.
Life is really very simple!

Is television the drug of the nation in Brazil? | Transition Consciousness
Is television the drug of the nation in Brazil?
So sang the Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy, and still in 2013 I am not quite sure how much us Westerners realise how much our news is faked. One of the best examples is this clip of journalist Charles Jaco goofing around on a tv set which was supposed to be a Saudi Arabian “hotel”.
Twenty years later and CNN were caught out yet again with a fake Syrian blogger “Danny”:
It is interesting being part of a Brazilian – British couple. When my wife comes to the UK and watches the British news, it can be quite shocking, especially seeing the reporting from the Middle East, where there are relentless stories demonising the people there. And now things are moving to Africa, where “Al Qaeda” are said to be active.
Robin Cook, shortly before his untimely death, said this of Al Qaida:
(Reference: The struggle against terrorism cannot be won by military means, The Guardian, July 2005).
You know it’s funny how the BBC, Sky, CNN, Fox, you name it, never seem to recall that Al-Quaida was not a terrorist organisation at all as we are all told it is, but just a database of names of people the CIA trained. The name Al-Quaida then somehow magically transformed into the global terrorist organisation we know and love today, an organisation who always seem to be located on top of the world’s most important natural resources ay?
So that is the UK and America for you. What’s happening in Brazil?
In am learning Portuguese and everyone tells me I need to watch soap operas in order to learn spoken Brazilian. One major problem is that subtitles don’t work on our tv, so that way of learning is out for me. But Brazilian soap operas are for me utterly unwatchable as they seem to me to be wall-to-wall shouting, really really intense shouting, non-stop, and for a Brit like me it’s just all a bit too much, although Brazilians seem to love all this stuff and hang on every word and scream.
My wife suggested I watch one of their historical soap operas. I did say as we switched it on that they would start shouting any minute, and low and behold, around 30 seconds it all kicked off – nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah NAH NAH NAH! Too much again.
In Brazil some of the channels are owned by Evangelical churches who seem to have been set up in order to extract as much money as possible from some of the poorest people in this country. They run crazy news programmes each afternoon around 4pm, the sole purpose of which is to focus on every tragedy and act of violence, and broadcast these live from the ghettos with their helicopters and tv crews on motorbikes. I do watch these a little as my Portuguese is around the level of language that they use. The presenters speak slowly and repeat what they say, so in fact while it is very trashy tv, you can follow what they are saying, if only for a few minutes before needing to switch off.
There are a few shows in Brazil which defy British categorisation. When I first moved to Brazil I didn’t quite understand what was happening at all or what exactly the programme was, being a curious mix of game show, chat show, sketches and very scantily clad women who just stand in the background in very skimpy clothes.
Right, so what’s the point of all of this and what intelligent observations can I possibly make?
Let’s rewind and talk about how war is presented on the news in Brazil. Of course most of the time with the US being so dominant over the psyche of Brazil, their perspective is the one presented without question. But around 11pm in Brazil, and sometimes earlier around 9pm interesting things happen on news programmes. They actually give much more time to single items, as opposed to the utter obsession of Sky in the UK with their Breaking News. This extra time gives some of the most intelligent and articulate Brazilians time to be interviewed in a much more profound way than the soundbites which are more the norm in the UK.
In writing this blog I am always conscious that I am writing with two audiences, and while I risk upsetting my Brazilian readers in the first half of many articles, often I discuss certain things to achieve a certain effect, before looking at the point I really want to make. So for the Brazilians here, here is a video of the leader of the opposition party, Ed Milliband, in a famous interview with the BBC. The journalist asks him six or seven questions, and all Milliband can do is repeat the same phrase he has learnt by heart after every single question. The reason he does this is that he knows that most of the time, news agencies only have time to broadcast one answer, hence his absolute cynicism in providing an answer which is totally unrelated to those he was asked.
I believe that these strikes are wrong, at a time when negotiations are still going on. But parents and the public have been let down by both sides because the government has acted in a reckless and provocative manner. After today’s disruption, I urge both sides to put aside the rhetoric, get round the negotiating table and stop it happening again.
Back to Brazil. I could spend a lot of time looking at the many really high quality news, current affairs and cultural shows on Brazilian tv but thought I would look at just two from last night. It is still just one week since the monumental tragedy in Santa Maria where so many young people lost their lives in a fire in a night club. Maria and I were watching Domingão do Faustão (this translates along the lines of Big Faustão’s Big Sunday), and the presenter Fausto Corrêa da Silva was doing as he always does some silly video clips of people falling over and generally making a fool of themselves.
Foto: Domingão do Faustão / TV Globo
Faustão is an interesting character. Maria showed me some of his really early shows on Youtube from the 1980s I think. Very cheap sets with edgy bands, a little like The Tube or maybe The Word, and he himself would be really critical of the corrupt and the exploiters of Brazil. Having moved to the tv channel Globo, he now commands a huge audience, and tv adverts and product placements explicitly endorsed by Faustão in the middle of his shows cost millions. Obviously he has had to compromise his more cutting commentary, but now I am speaking a little more Portuguese, it seems the show is more than just my first impressions of vacuous laughs and vacuous women in bikinis. Last night he did himself and the country proud.
Last night after the humorous video clips had played, they cut out any razzmatazz, cut out the dancing girls, cut out the music and cut out the normally hyper audience who remained silent. I have to paraphrase as I didn’t catch everything, but looking straight into the camera he said that what was wrong and what had caused the tragedy was incompetence, stupidity, greed, laziness, corruption and sacanagem, which is fairly strong and translates as “taking the piss” (British English).
So although this is light entertainment, Faustão it seems still cares a lot about Brazil, he is patriotic and does have a huge role to play in the education and encouragement of Brazilians, who like the rest of us around the world are just getting dumped on by politicians, legislators and those focussed only on profit and not the purpose of their enterprises. can you imagine Ant and Dec or Noel Edmunds or Simon Cowell or Bruce Forsyth launching into a tirade? I can’t, it just wouldn’t happen.
Following Faustão came the sunday night show Fantastico. This is a current affairs show which also has a lot of humour and silliness in it as well, especially when discussing all the news from the weekend’s football. But it covers current affairs well and reported on the psychological impacts of the tragedy in Santa Maria on those who had survived and those families who had lost their children.
They interviewed the owner of the night club, who told us he was not to blame, as he didn’t know how many people were in the club that night and firemen had not told him what a safe level was. They interviewed the drummer of the band, who said they were not to blame since they had used pyrotechnics many times and no one had ever told them not to do it, so it was everyone’s fault for not telling them, and not the band. In Brazil it seems that no one is ever guilty of anything.
Apart from the victims of course. There are many who are really struggling to come to terms with this horrific tragedy, and many blame themselves and are suffering from huge guilt for being alive when their friends have died. It was harrowing to watch.
Fantastico also built a full size replica of the Kiss night club. My immediate reaction was to worry about this simply being audience-chasing sensationalist journalism, but in fact it really helped you understand the maze-like layout of the club, and how many barriers there were to prevent people from leaving. In Brazil you enter a bar or club and are given a piece of paper (sometimes it’s electronic). This records all your drinks, and you pay on leaving. Hence the design of the club, with many barriers, was the worst possible design to help people escape from a toxic fire.
There were quite a few details which were quite horrible to contemplate, and there is no need to mention this here. But like Faustão, given that there is now such a problem with education in Brazil, this too has the ability to teach young people how to recognise fire dangers in clubs. This education does continue even with soap operas, the historical ones which teach Brazilians about their own history (last night we watched one where black people were beginning to be allowed to play football) and some, like Salve Jorge present many social issues such as the exploitation of women. Look behind the appearance and there is an intelligence there easily missed.
Is television the drug of the nation? Of course adverts still do all they can to belittle people, tell them how empty their lives are without the latest gadget, perfume, car or clothes, just as anywhere, and there is a huge amount of violence on the screens, but this is no different to the violence I can’t avoid on the Warner Channel during the ads in between Big Bang Theory which I love.
I have to say I have leant quite a lot from the news and documentary channels here, oh, and there are some notch Brazilian films too you have never seen, so maybe if we could find a way to export some of this Brazilian culture then we will achieve a little more balance and a little less stereotyping of this ever elusive country and people?
As always, I very much welcome comments and observations in the comments section below.

Conflicted Love by Kacey Hamford
Being a single father at the age of 20 was never my plan, but it seemed everyone had a plan for my life except me. That all changed when Cooper was born, my life revolved solely around him. So many decisions needed to be made. I needed to do what was best for my little man, I also don’t want to let the club down. So when I practically fell head over heels for the first girl I met, I guess you could say I was feeling conflicted.
At the age of 25 I never thought I would be moving back in with my brother, at least I was a successful business owner, right? A girls night out was just what I needed. What I didn’t expect was to fall in love with the first guy to buy me a drink. Especially one so involved in the life I did my best to avoid, but with one look from him I was hooked.
The life of an MC is fast. When problems close to home arise, do they stick to what and who they know or do they stand a united front?
After all, what’s love without a little conflict.

Recipe: Mangalore fried shrimp (jhinga Mangaloree) - California Cookbook
Anne Cusack / Anne Cusack
New Delhi-born Suvir Saran is rocketing toward the top of the Indian food scene in the United States with his fresh take on Indian-style home cooking. It's what he taught in his popular cooking classes at NYU. It's the theme ...
Step 1Rinse the shrimp and pat them dry on paper towels. Put them in a bowl and sprinkle with the cayenne, turmeric, mustard and lemon juice. Stir gently to coat the shrimp evenly with the spices. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Step 2When the shrimp have marinated, combine the oil, cumin seeds and curry leaves in a large wok or skillet over medium high heat. Cover, if using mustard seeds, because the seeds will splatter and pop. Cook until the cumin darkens or you hear the mustard seeds crackle, 1 to 2 minutes.
Step 3Add the shrimp and cook 30 seconds, stirring often. Add the green onion and cook, stirring, until the shrimp turn pink all over, about 1 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with salt to taste and serve hot.

Barnhoorn Banter: July 2006
Matt, Janice's brother, moved into his first home and finally proposed to Steph and she said yes! Congratulations!
This past Monday evening, we hosted an Barnhoorn Information Evening for some people from Palmerston church. We think it was a successful evening. Some new people have expressed interest in being part of our team! We have spent time this week meeting with supporters, going to the doctor and thinking about packing! We have also viewed a few homes and are trying to find a home that we could afford!
We do want to apologize for the poor updating since being in Ontario. Niether set of parents have high speed internet so it is a challenge! Thankfully Matt now has high speed and we are using it tonight!

After going to church on Sunday morning and speaking there, we came home and were getting lunch ready. Stephen was outside on the front deck throwing a ball to Titus, the dog. Suddenly we heard him wailing and crying. He had fallen down the stairs and got a rather large, fat and bloody lip!

The second weekend of July was Drost Camping with my dad's family. Stephen loved camping but wasn't too keen about how dirty he got! He liked the big houses (motorhomes) and the tractor that took him on a wagon ride to see the deer (elk). They also had a very cold swimming pool.

Saugeen Conservation Area
While Jono was busy camping with the boys, Stephen, Dad and I went to the Saugeen Conservation Area. It's a place we used to go to when we were young. It has many animals and trails to hike. It was also shady so it was a great way to get out of the heat.

It has been a busy/relaxing summer so far. Before the wedding, we were able to spend a few days with Jono's family in Port Perry. Stephen loved playing with Uncle Dan's project. Unfortunately, he did not love the sandbox that Opa (Jono's dad) had spent hours cleaning up for him. Stephen still does not appreciate being dirty! BUT, he has overcome his aversion to grass and will now walk through the grass barefoot!!!
I have tried to post pics from the wedding but am running into some trouble. For now, if you want to see pictures, you can go to Theresa and Joe's blog from the link on our page.
It was a great day despite Stephen being sick. We still don't know what he had, but it wasn't nice. Thankfully he woke up Sunday feeling much better but he was also covered in a rash! He was glad to be able to play with his new best friends, Aiden and Ashton, my parent's neighbours.

We flew to Ontario on the 13th of June. We were picked up by a very excited Beppe (Janice's mom). Stephen even recognized her and gave her a hug. He was quickly distracted by the luggage carts and was able to go for a few rides while we waited for our luggage. We drove to Elmira to meet Janice's siblings for dinner. On the way we were able to get Stephen to tell Beppe that there is a baby in Mommy's tummy. My mother was quite excited! We had to tell Pake (Janice's dad) over the phone as he was in a course, stuck in Toronto.
After dinner, we made it to our new home for the next month. Stephen seemed to remember it and adjusted quickly. Janice promptly tried on her bridesmaid dress to affirm the fact that it didn't fit properly! The next day we were able to find a seamstress and have her alter the dress in time for Theresa's wedding.
For those who were wondering, everyone now knows that we are expecting. It was great to tell people our great news!

A free day before flying to Ontario
COPE/WOC was finished late Friday night, so we had 3 days before we flew to Ontario. We slept in Saturday morning and did some running around. On Sunday we stopped at Uncle Jake and Auntie Donna's house for lunch. Stephen loves going there and spending time with them and Auntie Dendra (Kendra). Hopefully we will see them in Ontario later this summer. We went to the water park on Monday to kill some time and have some fun. As it turns out, Stephen loves water and getting wet!

COPE/WOC
A long time ago, or what seems like a long time ago, we spent two weeks in a course. It was a Wycliffe Orientation Course (WOC) and COPE was about culture and stuff. I can't remember what it stands for.
We spent two weeks learning about culture, Wycliffe, interpersonal issues, life on the field, partnership development, insurance, prayer and other things related to life overseas. It was an intense, but great couple of weeks. Meals were provided so we didn't have to cook or shop for two weeks. They also provided babysitting for Stephen! We also got to meet many cool new friends.
