Grab The Taste, Kick The Calories

When the heat comes in the first thing you want is a cool drink that can bring down your body temperature. While we usually keep an eye on what we eat all year around, most of us tend to forget about what we drink. Unhealthy drinking habits such as aerated sodas, coke and juices loaded with sugar are something we all seek comfort in during summer and this is one of the leading reasons for weight gain. If you’ve been wondering how you can create some drinks that will help keep you cool and keep those unwanted calories away, then you need to invest in the best masticating juicer.

One of the best things about summers is that they are the best time of the year for some of the most exotic fruits. You can combine some of these fruits to create smoothies and coolers that will help you stay in shape without ruining the taste. Here’s a super easy recipe that you will enjoy when you have company over.

If someone told you that combining multiple fruits will ruin the taste of your drink, you need to try this recipe and make them try it to believe how multiple fruits can give you the extra zing and health burst with a taste that will leave you wanting more. The best part about this smoothie is that you won’t have to hold back the urge of gulping down another glass since it’s packed with goodness.

You can choose to avoid any of the fruits you don’t like, however since the dominance in this smoothie comes from strawberries, don’t leave them out. Here’s what you need – 8 – 10 strawberries, 1 cup papaya, 1 ripe banana, 1 cup fresh orange juice, half an avocado, 8 – 10 almonds, 8 – 10 Mint leaves, 1 tablespoon honey. This is a great recipe for people who are latex intolerant since there’s no use of milk or milk products in it. This fresh smoothie is one of the best ways to beat the heat and keep your body cool. Just leave out a few mint leaves for the garnishing and put in all the rest of the ingredients into the juicer and blend till smooth.

Pumpkin Spice - Birthday Wishes

While scrolling through the Pumpkin Spice shop, I noticed the great prices on the Christmas/Winter themed paper pads.    The fun colors and patterns on so many of the pages could be used for just about anything.   So I pulled out the “12 Days of Christmas” paper pad from My Mind’s Eye and set to work trying to make some cards.Since I never have enough birthday cards on hand, I thought that was what I would try first.  I started by punching out butterflies from several of the many patterns in the pad.    From there, I moved them around my card until I had an arrangement that I liked, added some stitching and stickers, and, “Ta Da!”, a birthday card! Since I also need a congratulations card for a friend , I thought I would see what I could make with the same paper pad.   I really love how this card turned out.(In real life, the glitter on the “U” is more similar to the aqua color in the paper.)So what do you think?   You can make some fabulous, non-holiday cards using holiday themed pap…

Pumpkin Spice–What Time Is It?

Hello! Today is my day to post on the Pumpkin Spice blog. My card fits our current challenge, “Time”. We would love to see your project with either a word or element that implies time. I have to admit I was a bit stumped by the challenge at first. I could only think of clocks and watches, but I didn’t have any stamps that would fit. I finally had my “Ah ha!” moment and thought about looking up a quote about time. I found this quote from John Lennon that I really liked and the idea for my card grew from there and these beautiful Pebbles Inc. papers.I love these new papers from Pebbles, Inc. The colors are so bright and cheery, I had to use them to chase away the spring gloom we have right now. I love each of the 18 patterns (2 pages of each) included in the 6x6 pad.I hope this helps to inspire you to think out of the box and create a project for our “Time” challenge. You can link up your project and find the challenge details HERE. Thank you for stopping by! I hope you have a fabulous …
It has been a really long time since I have been able to spend time in my craft room.  One of my New Years resolutions was to get back into my craft room on a regular basis.  Well, it is now October and I am finally here.  I'm hoping to be back more often.

I made this card to send to a family member that has been in my thoughts a lot lately.

I hope to have more to share soon.

Sai Movements in India

Revered Guruji Shri Chandrabhanu Satpathyji was drawn by Shree Shirdi Sai in   the year 1989 and since then Shree Gurujee has been heading the world Sai Movement . Shri Gurujee is the source and inspiration in the  construction of 217 Shirdi Sai temples in India and abroad , thus leading millions of devotees to tread the path  of Sai —  shraddha and saburi”.

Under the leadership of Shri Gurujee ,  the Sai Movement in India has traversed the  entire  landscape of the country and today the entire spiritual landscape of India reverberates with the presence of Shirdi Sai devotees , catalysed by building of Shirdi Sai temples in almost all major locations ( including remote locations)  in India   like Assam, HP, Jammu, Andamans , Kolkatta, Odisha , Bhatinda, Tirupati, Ambala, Dahej,Solan, etc .thus taking the teachings of humanism, tolerance, purity and love as taught by the perfect master  Sadguru Shri Shirdi Sai amongst  the populace .These temples built under guidance of Shri Gurujee also undertake relief work/ activities ( during natural calamities) etc . thus establishing that service of fellow beings is serving God.

Shri Gurujee has shaped up the Sai Movement into a gigantic spiritual force  which helps the devotees to infuse their daily lives with purity of conduct as postulated and depicted in the “Shri Sai Charitra” . Shri Gurujee  always emphasizes upon utmost relevance of daily reading of this sacred book “Shri Sai Charitra” to seek answers to all the queries vexing the mind of a traveler.. ..

During the Ardh Kumbh Melas and Purn Kumbh Melas (held in Prayag ), Camps  patronized by Shree Gurujee are organized wherein  Shri Shirdi Sai Idol `s are installed ;  prayers, discourses etc are organized   to take the teachings of the Shirdi Sai to people / devotees visiting the Kumbh , enthused with devotion  .

Shri Gurujee has been instrumental in spreading the teachings of humanism , love and tolerance as taught by Shri Shirdi Sai   to make the world more cohesive functional unit by supporting the publications of scores of magazines in varied languages  like Telugu, Marathi, Assamese, Odia, Hindi, English etc so that the teachings of the master reaches all . The sudden surge in the publications on Shri Shirdi Sai  across the country stands witness to the growing urge of the people to seek more information about the teachings and life of the Shirdi Sai catalysed by the Sai Movement ushered in by revered Shri Gurujee ; innumerable  temples  built under His guidance  today help the devotees to find a reference point to start travelling within thus achieving harmony .Scores of websites today spread His teachings.

Shri Gurujee has extensively used music to take the teachings of Shri Shirdi Sai to His devotees. Music contained in CD “ Living with Sai” , “Thubhyam Namami ” released by Times Music, India have popularized the teachings of Shri Shirdi Sai motivating its the listeners to visit Shirdi to learn more about the Sadguru Shree Shirdi Sai and follow the path of humanism as shown by Him.

Medical Camps are organized by these temples to help provide relief to the needy thus establishing the principle ofnar seva , narayan seva(i.e  serving human beings is serving God)  amongst every one.

With blessings of Shri Shirdi Sai, millions of devotees of Baba living in almost all  locations in India like Jammu, Kangra, Pilibhit, Guwhati, Andamans, Delhi, Moradabad, Allahabad, Surat, Ajmer,Chennai, Ahmednagar, Gurgaon, Sambalpur, Hubli, Kolkatta, Bhopal  etc  assemble together  to partke the Sai ambrosia spreading the message of  humanism and love .

!! Jai Shree Sai !!         !! Jai Shree Gurujee !!

    HB 101

    Posted by Chadd Rose on Jul 6th 2019

    Picked up some samples at a trade show last Sept. 2019. With no scientific proof, I feel it does a great job doing exactly what it is advertised to do, vitalize your plants.
    I initially split a mint plant in half and treated them both the same except for spraying one twice a week with HB101.
    The biggest difference i saw over long term use was the treated plant's ability to use the soil nutrients more efficiently. i.e. intentionally no water for both plants. The untreated plant started showing the effects after only two days and the treated plant lasting about four until it needed some water.
    Now I am using it on my beginner garden, treating it once a week. Havent had any serious insect issues at this point and the foilage looks good.
    I am going to continue using HB101 as it is completely safe, improves the soil for easier nutrient takeup and with continued use, will reduce the use of soil amendment's.
    The samples are an inexpensive and great way to get started so get online and give it try.

    Best ever.

    Posted by ReeDaniels on Jun 5th 2019

    This is my second bottle. I got started with samples, and after using them I began to see an immediate change in all my plants.
    So much better than ever expected. The customer service is also the best. . An all around great experience. Love what it has done for my plants!

Aurora Promenade Area Community Improvement Plan

Real Estate and Planning Projects / Aurora Promenade Area Community Improvement Plan

Town of Aurora, Ontario

Sierra was retained by the Town of Aurora to prepare a Community Improvement Plan (CIP) for its Promenade Area which contains the Town’s historic downtown and several key heritage assets. Portions of the Promenade exhibit varying built form, functionality and, subsequently, differing opportunities and dynamics of investment.

Priorities for Downtown and shoulder area renewal resulted in the development of a range of ‘quick win’ incentives such as façade improvement and building restoration programs, complemented by those programs tailored to address specific site complexities over time (e.g. Brownfield redevelopment).

8th UNWTO Silk Road Ministers Meeting

14 Mar 18

In what was the biggest UNWTO Silk Road Ministers Meeting to date, 34 Member States convened in ITB Berlin to discuss the “2025 Silk Road Tourism Agenda”. Also attended by numerous UNWTO Affiliate Members and partner organizations such as UNIDO, UNESCO, PATA, WTTC and many more, the meeting provided a forum to share ideas and strategies as to how fully realize the goals of establishing the Silk Road as the most important transnational tourism route of the 21st century.

The Secretary-General, Mr. Zurab Pololikashvili, who opened the meeting, pointed in his speech that “Our joint work on placing the Silk Road as an internationally renowned and seamless cultural tourism route is proving to be very positive. In countries all along the Silk Road, there is growing awareness of tourism’s contribution to cultural preservation, regional cohesion, and intercultural understanding. Cross-country tourism projects are growing, and the interest of trade and consumers in the Silk Road continues to rise”, he added.

SILVERcare provides homecare in Greenville, NC, Washington NC, and Kinston NC. Loneliness in seniors is a huge problem in America and it can also lead to many health risks. The Washington post outlines just how detrimental senior isolation can be on an individual’s health. It can be just as detrimental as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Click here to read more on this epidemic. The good news is that it can be prevented. Here are 3 ways to prevent senior isolation.

1. Keep Them Close to Their Hobbies

A big warning sign of depression and/or isolation in a senior is the abandoning of their favorite hobby. Make sure that you find ways to help facilitate a way for them to do the things they love. Whether it’s swimming, gardening, or cooking. Make time to help them keep in touch with the things that light their fire.

2. Organize Outings

Getting outside in the sunlight can make a huge difference on a person’s mood. Make time to take your loved one to a movie, a restaurant, or somewhere where they can see a close friend. Seeing familiar places and being around people help seniors feel normal and that they still have a life ahead of them. Even if you schedule this once a week, it will make a huge difference in your elder loved one’s mood and overall well-being.

3. Invest in Homecare

Not everybody has the means to visit their aging relative daily, and that’s okay. It is, however, important to make sure that they’re not being neglected. Investing in a home care service ensures that they can go on outings, see a familiar place, and engage in conversation with somebody on a regular basis. Even if you can’t be there all the time, someone else who cares will be so that you can have peace of mind.

Need More Help?

SILVERcare is a locally owned, licensed home care agency which was established in 1993 in Greenville, NC, Washington NC, and Kinston NC. We provide in-home assistance and personal care services to the elderly, disabled and injured.The greatest fear many seniors have about the aging process is the loss of their independence. SILVERcare addresses these concerns by giving seniors the support they need to remain in their homes, living independently, for as long as possible. Our personal care services provide peace of mind to our clients and their families. If you’re ready to get started, contact us today!

Barrington analyst Jame Goss has rated Sirius XM Radio as OUTPERFORM in a note issued October 30th. The analyst feels that, "the satellite radio concept is viable and valuable, particularly as changes are made in the context of a single corporate survivor. Our bias on this stock remains positive."

Goss does note that financial issues have generated increased scrutiny on the equity, but recognizes that the company has exchanged some February debt for common shares, and feels that this could be an indicator that Sirius XM it is close to managing the immediate February 2009 maturities.

On the May and December XM debt Goss stated, "The second issue is $350 million of XM bank debt that comes due in May. Management feels these maturities can be extended. The other $400 million of maturities are more than a year away in December of 2009. This 1.75% convertible issue can potentially be replaced with 10% fixed rate debt."

Confirming discussion on potential delisting and rule changes, Goss stated, "The NASDAQ has temporarily waived the $1 per share trading requirement due to the financial crisis, and SIRI’s sizable market cap appears to place it in a separate category given its roughly 3 billion share base. While reverse splits are not typically a desirable option, this might be one of the rare exceptions to that rule."

Barrington seems to bullish on the concept of SDARS without going overboard. The closing note in their report sums things up pretty well:

"Armed with improving visibility along these lines, we are reducing our target values to a new progression beginning with $0.60 based on 2009 assumptions and $2.00 based on 2010. The debate appears to have come down to an issue of survival of the company and the industry concept."

Position - Long SIRI

trump-happen (2)
Are white people who consider themselves non-racist and non-Trump/non-Cruz supporters really SURPRISED that there are millions of violently racist white people in the USA ” all of a sudden?”
Here’s a confession: I am more angry and pissed off about this convenient lack of awareness from “moderate” and/or liberal “But I am not racist” white people, more than I am pissed off about the *obvious* racist and xenophobic Pro-Trump or Pro-Cruz supporters I see going viral on social media. This lack of awareness is more traumatizing for me to hear from my white friends and acquaintances; especially when they keep on telling me that they are “shocked” or “surprised” that “we” let this happening or, “I don’t understand how we in the USA let this happen!?”
First of all, don’t include me in your ‘we’– I didn’t let sh*t happen. Own it and what you really should be saying is, “How did we ‘but I’m not racist’ white people let this happen?”
Stop sending me essays and articles that talk about “how did ‘we’ let this happen?” and then never take any ally-building actions. Sharing an article on Facebook or Twitter is not the type of activism that is going to tackle both systemic racism and your learned ignorance.
Oh, and my quick answer is this: this has been happening since colonialism. Systemic racism, overt racism, etc isn’t new. The mere fact that you don’t have the racial literacy to understand how and why it is happening is frustrating to me. Muhammad Ali had the same frustrations about the ‘not all white people are racist’ in 1970….
The racial ignorance of ‘non-racist’ white people is strategically designed to be this way; this ignorance is the ‘glue’ that keeps the more extreme ‘white racists’ in the place that they are in and have always been in; it is the glue that sustains the millions of [mostly] White people (and those few non-white people who internalized white supremacist notions of ‘nation-building’) that support Trump and Cruz. And I repeat: just sharing posts about ‘bad racist whites’ on social media is not enough. I still consider it bystander mentality. If you don’t [want to] understand the impact of white liberal ignorance (read Marc Lombardo); if you don’t [want to] understand the evolution of the 500+ year long white supremacist racial caste system in the USA…If you didn’t even know that we’re supposed to ‘know’, then of course, “that is how YOU (not ‘we’) let this happen.”
And let’s face it: you’ve been this way since the ante-bellum slavery officially ended. You were that ‘moderate’ white person who didn’t think Black people should be “slaves”… but also didn’t think they really should have the same power, resources, agency as any white person. And yea, you considered yourself one of the ‘good’ whites since you weren’t lynching Black people like those ‘bad’ whites; yours was a kinder non-racist racism.
And I am frustrated that since I was a child, I’ve been trying to explain what a lack of white racial literacy means; what the horribly racialized consequences/impacts are. I have pointed it out, testified, published, etc., and many of my white liberal friends and colleagues just didn’t want to engage and/or have dismissed my concerns and experiences. Many of you have kept on sending me articles with this same theme over and over again:
How could ‘we’ let Oscar Grant Happen?
How could ‘we’ let the mass incarceration of Black and Brown people happen?
How could ‘we’ let Trayvon Martin happen?
How could ‘we’ let Dylann Roof happen?
How could ‘we’ let Trump Happen?
Let’s face it: You have just as much a “progressive”/possessive investment in [neoliberal whiteness] as Trump/Cruz supporters have in their strange investment in Jim Crow-esque or antebellum era types of whiteness. This is what is going on. Some of you are conscious of it while some of you are engaging in it unconsciously. (I’d gander most are unconsciously doing it). A majority of you continue to be a fake bystander in this –– not because you don’t know what to do… but because you un/consciously  know that if you actually do something to dismantle systemic racism you will lose the privileges, resources, power, etc afforded to you as part of the [neoliberal], “but I’m not racist like Trump” [whiteness] club.
P.S. It’s amazing that the majority of people are white who say they will leave the USA if Trump wins; white people who don’t even talk about how being an “ex-patriot” is a white racial privilege when sh*t hits the fan. When you tell me that you have plans to move to a European country, this blows my mind. A lot of non-white ‘we’ don’t have this privilege and a lot of us would opt to stay and fight. I know there are non-white people who have plans to leave too, but there are far more white people saying this than non-white folk in my life.

It rubs me the wrong way when “we” don’t see that racial injustice as a whole is part of a long tradition spanning slavery, lynchings after slavery, Jim Crow laws, school segregation (i.e. redlining) and the war on drugs (which was essentially a war on black people). America is still a slave society today, just a “kinder” one.

    Great commentary!

  2. I will admit that I am somewhat surprised at the number of folks supporting him and engaging in the same level of hateful rhetoric.

    However, this really did start to show itself when President Obama was elected and got even worse after his re-election. I don’t know how many times I heard people refusing to admit they’re racists because they hate him and there’s no doubt in my mind that had he been white, they wouldn’t have been so hateful (and ironically, he wasn’t black enough for Ben Carson to even consider him black because he was raised by white people).

    I still don’t know what to think of Trump. Is this some kind of intentional political theater (a character akin to Stephen Colbert) where he’s intentionally getting these people to wear their prejudice with pride in order to expose them? Maybe he has every intention of losing the general election. Prior to all his birther talk, he had actually supported Democrats. Maybe this is some kind of bizarre attempt to secure another Democratic president that may have been unlikely because of all the hatefulness directed at President Obama. But if he’s so extreme, I have to believe in my heart (maybe naively) that there’s no way the majority of voters will actually vote for him. Maybe some people are voting for him in the primaries with every intention of voting Democratic in the general election in November. Other folks who think that there’s no way the majority of voters would actually vote for him. I know his saluting sycophants can and should be taken at face value, but I still find him hard to believe.

    Yeah, I considered Canada (I live in Michigan, so we’re virtually Canadian anyway, eh). I have my enhanced license. I can get over the border.

    And this doesn’t even go into the big lie these people believe that has been spoon fed to them by the (rich white) people who wield most of the power in this country. It’s the black and brown people that are the problem. Everything would be all rainbows and unicorns if the US was all white.

  3. ” but because you un/consciously know that if you actually do something to dismantle systemic racism you will lose the privileges, resources, power, etc afforded to you as part of the [neoliberal], “but I’m not racist like Trump” [whiteness] club.”

    This shows a fundamental misunderstanding of how racism works. An extract from something I wrote on anti-fascism:

    “The destructiveness of fascism – and racism more generally – is not limited to its principal enemies. Far from affording privileges to large swathes of society as some suggest, the oppression of marginalised groups hurts the entire working class. This is true in a social sense – as in the racist externalisation of misogyny mentioned above – as well as an economic one.

    In Black Reconstruction in America, W.E.B. Du Bois first outlined the way that racism was used to pay ‘public and psychological’ wages to white workers; undermining solidarity with their black peers so that ‘the wages of both classes could be kept low’. Recent analyses have reaffirmed this principle, as has the European labour market, where the exploitation of migrant workers hurts pay and conditions for everyone.”

    This individualist privilege theory stuff ignores the role that racism plays in the maintenance of capitalism, and has never meaningfully demonstrated a causal link between the oppression of POC and white privilege. Ignoring class antagonism like this disarms resistance from the outset. This type of politics serves as a vassal of neoliberalism and should be called out whenever we see it.

  4. Surprised?

    A commenter on this post named George West, who’s a white man living in London, is going to explain racism in the USA to a black woman with a Ph.D. in Critical Food Geographies and who has decades of lived experience as a target of racism here in the USA.

    1. I get this all the time that I don’t “fundamentally” understand racism. This is explained to me by a white person. I find it intriguing. Especially since neoliberal or neoliberalism (which I am using to describe a type of whiteness) has everything to do with current forms of capitalism and racism. My use of the term “investment” refers to neoliberal capitalism. And why is there usually this concern that if I talk about “race” or “racism” that I am completely ignoring ‘class’? I know that racism + capitalism + classism are connected and have spoken about this for years. I am someone trained in intersectional activism/social justice scholarship. Seriously, I don’t get it. My post was about Trump and the white neoliberal response of “How did we let Trump happen?” I have had a few white people respond to this post without engaging with the central question. Instead, they immediately try to make something else central (other than whiteness). Someone tweeted “How did the Black Caucus let Hillary happen?” What was the point of asking that question, in response to my post? I’m specifically talking about neoliberal whiteness but leave it to usually white people to not want to talk about THAT. (shaking my head).

      1. I’m interested in what you mean by ‘neoliberal whiteness’ here. If your use of the the term investment refers to an investment in neoliberal capitalism then, as was my first impression, you seem to be asserting that white people actively benefit from their own oppression and exploitation under said system. This is the central claim which the piece rests on, so I’m confused as to how I’m attempting to decentre whiteness; I’m actually disputing your conception of it.

        It’s telling that Veganelder and yourself both responded to a critique of the ideological content of your post with references to my personhood. Presumably if I was not white, or not a man, or a combination thereof you’d need to respond to the content of my argument; something you haven’t done. At its most radical the sort of identity critique you’re engaging in adds a layer of analysis to discussions of how power manifests in discourse. At its most ineffectual it attempts to replace that discussion, as it has here.

        We’d all be much better off if the left got back to evaluating arguments with reference to their ideological impact – how they perpetuate the power structures of whiteness, patriarchy, capitalism, and so on – rather than the subjectivity of their proponents. By asserting that white people benefit from racism, and concomitantly capitalism, arguments revolving around privilege dismiss the one strategy which has historically – both in the long and short terms – posed a serious threat to those power structures: working class solidarity. Your blackness doesn’t change that.

  5. Mr. West referencing your personhood was my, perhaps inept, way of noting the fact that your lived life precludes your having any experience of being targeted by racism. Indeed, your personhood (white and male) means you’ve benefited your whole life long from racism. (as have I)

    That said…the presumption you present by suggesting that Dr. Harper “shows a fundamental misunderstanding of how racism works” is so absent of any meaningful foundation on your part that it is virtually incomprehensible. Albert Memmi noted that “racism is a lived experience”. It isn’t a concept untethered to a lived experience and hence…anytime someone without that lived experience undertakes to teach someone with an experiential grounding in being targeted by racism about racism…it becomes problematic…if not absurd. Especially when the person you presume to ‘school’ has years of education in this area.

    I’m a white guy like you and I’m not unsympathetic to your struggles to understand or comprehend. Our culture carefully taught us to be oblivious and to be oblivious about our obliviousness. I wish you well if you are interested in learning. I would, though, if I were you, refrain from attempting to teach those who experience being targeted by racism about what racism is. You’re doomed to failure…not because they don’t understand…but because you don’t understand.

    You might find this essay written by Abe Lateiner useful to you. He is delineates some of his insights and grapplings as he struggles to recover from being victimized by our culturally induced unawareness. You also might find Charles Mill’s writings about the epistemology of ignorance helpful. Good luck on your journey.

  6. Response to the charge that identity critiques seek to replace discourse with appeals to personhood: “Here, have a more verbose appeal to personhood, with a dash of condescension”.

    Yeah, thanks. Let the adults talk now, ok?

  7. Your rage is understood. But how about you offer some positive solutions. Yes expose the problem. But just doing that isn’t enough. You want change? Let’s work together to make that happen.

    1. Thanks. I’ve been offering positive solutions for about 12 decades now through consulting, giving workshops, lectures, publishing literature, etc. It’s what I’m paid to do, but please let me know what your thoughts are on on how I can do even more. Thanks.

  8. “Are white people who consider themselves non-racist and non-Trump/non-Cruz supporters really SURPRISED that there are millions of violently racist white people in the USA ” all of a sudden?””

    We’ve been lucky enough to be able to *ignore* the violently racist. Pretty much every “don’t read the comments!!!” thing is an act of burying one’s head in the sand. Also, https://negeenblogs.wordpress.com/2015/09/10/for-my-iranian-american-community-a-letter-of-my-sorrow-rage-and-tough-love/ calls out some more ignoring.

Love that Grandson!

Well, we managed to get near perfectly level campsites on the way down here to Virginia, which is what we have to have since we cannot use our leveling jacks. I was most worried about the camp here at Misty Mountain, since the sites we like to get usually take a little bit of leveling to get perfect. As it was, our reserved site was occupied by the camp owner's "for sale" rig which wouldn't start, so could not be moved at the time. So the hostess put us just opposite on a much more level (and nicer) site. The bad part is our satellites don't work, but the leveling was much more important this time. The park has cable TV and free wi-fi, so we are getting by.

What can I say about grandson extraordinnaire, Ronan? He is the cutest, smartest little guy. I know, I know, everyone thinks their grandchildren are the cutest and smartest. . . and you know what? YOU'RE ALL WRONG! Hahaha. Just kidding. There isn't a baby that isn't cute, smart, etc. I just can't look at Ronan without thinking about the miracle of conception, growth and birth. And to think how perfect he is with his 10 little fingers and toes, etc. We haven't seen him since Christmas and I already have him reaching out to me. Course, I'm no substitute for Mom, but Grandma will at least do in a pinch.

Yesterday we walked down to the University (UVA) from Jocelyn's and stopped off at the swings. As soon as Ronan saw the swings, he starts kicking his legs and squealing. He really likes them. When we left, Jocelyn had to take him out from behind because if he sees her start to lift him, he holds on. Hah.

Today we ran a lot of errands. With Grandpa and Grandma along, it made it a little faster for Jocelyn because she could leave him in the car with us. We did make it to the mall and Terry got his walk in. Later, we drove out to the motorhome and Jocelyn and I took Ronan up to the owner's place up on the mountain. He has a little petting zoo with 3 little goats. . . one tiny baby goat. Also we met the pot bellied pig who likes to have his ears scratched. Ronan didn't care to get too close because he was making "grunting" noises all the time. He really is a social pig and I scratched his ears for him. I took a couple pictures back in our rig. Ronan likes the drawers because he could pull himself up with the handles.

Tomorrow we have to go pick up Ronan's birthday gift. We had it shipped to the WalMart store here. We got him a big Radio Flyer wagon that has a lot of features. . . not like the wagon we had as children, but one I am sure Ronan will enjoy.

Till next time. . .

Coach Care - LESS, a.k.a. The Unforgiven

Well, Coach Care-less has really dropped the ball and we are mad. We left our camp in central Indiana a day early (no refund, of course) to make it to Elkhart and Coach Care-less for a Thursday 8 a.m. appointment. We had it there parked in front of their service door on Wednesday night. What a day!

The next day Terry went over at 8 a.m. and made sure they knew what the problem was. They called around 11 a.m. to tell us that the jack in question was shot and would require replacing @ $900+. !!! Now we knew it was expensive, but we have had one replaced before under warranty and knew that their price was a bit more expensive. So Terry called Tiffin and they told him retail was just over $600. ??? AND if it is done at the plant at Red Bay they do it at dealer cost which is $400+. Well, obviously, we don't want to make a run to Red Bay just now. Terry decided to ask Coach Care-less to verify the price when they called to tell us it was done. Hah. They called back at 3:30 p.m. to tell us that they couldn't get a jack! They are built right there in Elkhart, but Atwood is "moving their plant" and wouldn't be able to assemble one until maybe sometime Monday. What? Terry said, "Forget it. I've got to be in Virginia for GRANDSON EXTRAORDINNAIRE'S birthday and I can't wait. So then he asked them what we owed for removing the jack, and the guy said . . . "Oh, nothing. It only took 10 minutes." Grrrrrrr. Terry was smokin'. Yep. If they had done their job after getting our coach in for an 8 a.m. appointment, Tiffin would have overnighted a part to Ekhart and we would have it installed. But they waited until 3:30 p.m. to tell us and by that time Red Bay was shut down for the day.

Since then we have found out a couple things. The warning buzzer on the jacks works really well. If the jack is not working, it sounds and disables ALL the jacks. If you remove the jack, it still works because it thinks it's not doing what it's supposed to and the air dumps and all the jacks rachet because it thinks they need pulled up. Grrrrrr. We got the buzzers off and aired up and went to camp Pull-Tab. Once there, Tab and Terry worked on it. Found out you cannot use ANY jacks if one is malfunctioning. Still nothing concrete, so Terry got on the Tiffin owners' forum and there someone posted a solution. Once they got the jacks disabled, he had to jump the control for the air dump and got the coach aired up. So now we are on our way. We have no levelers, so we have to find a really level site, but we are at least on track now for Ronan's birthday.

Thanks for nothing Coach Care-less.

Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.

Till next time. . .

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly!

The Good. . . Went to my doctor today for my increasingly painful hip. He diagnosed a type of bursitis and gave me a cortisone shot. Yay. I'm happy. I've had those before and I know it will work.

The Bad. . . Have to leave here a day early and make a run to Elkhart.

The Ugly. . . The right rear passenger Atwood Levelegs jack is up and doesn't know it. The motor is spinning and there is no movement. . . in other words, the wheel's turning, but the hamster's dead! The system thinks the jack is down and keeps trying to raise it. Since it is sending an error message, it shuts the power off to the entire system and we cannot lower the jacks. The techie said we were lucky they did this in the UP position. . . otherwise we would not be able to move. Yuck.

We arrived here in New Castle, Indiana, at Summit Lake State Park. Because they don't have the water turned on (actually, they did that today), we only have to pay $11 a night for 30 Amp. Not bad. Last night we visited with our friend Myra and met the new man in her life, Kent. What a wonderful man and a great couple they make! We took the dogs to their vet today and got their meds refilled. Tomorrow we have hair appointments and Terry sees the same doctor I saw today. Then Wednesday, we see our broker and Terry's cardiologist. Then we are taking off for parts north.

We have to be out of Indiana before the weekend snow arrives. Ugh!

Till next time. . .

Gorgeous even in the rain!

We gave up on the rain quitting and drove on over to Sunset Dock on Dale Hollow Lake. Everything was calm, a few people around. . . fisherman, of course. They fish this lake all year long and it normally does not freeze completely, although I believe there have been years that it has. There are quite a few boats/houseboats sitting in their slips.

We drove up to the storage lot and were very pleasantly surprised when we opened our door. We had put the covers on our boat and jet ski, then threw big sheets of plastic over that. The boats were in better condition than any time we have stored them. Not much dust, clean on the inside, just like we left them. We had put two boxes of damprid in the Wellcraft. That stuff works, but if you use it, be sure to set the can in something larger. It draws moisture and produces water. We set the containers in larger rubbermaid type containers and they were about half full of water. Then we also took long narrow containers that were perforated and put moth balls in there and placed those around the cabin and also on the gunwales of the jet ski. No vermin! So we were quite happy. Our job was simple. Took out that stuff, put the batteries in and got them ready for the mechanic. Then we went and talked with Chuck and told him what we wanted done and he is going to have them lake ready by the time we get down there in May.

He is working on a project boat right now, replacing all the rotted wood and fiberglassing in the new decks, etc. He said that the new boats are so expensive, people are fixing up their old ones. Even if it costs $10-12,000, it is cheaper than the $50-60,000 they are asking for similar new boats. I know our Wellcraft would be way expensive to replace. We did put a new engine in ours before we started full timing. The boat is still in great shape and we have taken good care of it.

We are leaving this morning and driving just south of Lexington, Kentucky. Then tomorrow we will drive on in to Summit Lake State Park, just north of New Castle. We will be there most of the week while we see doctors and vets, then it is off to Virginia for Ronan's first birthday! Yay!!

Till next time. . .

Here on top of Mt. Ararat

At least that's what it seems like. We got here yesterday, at Maple Hill RV Campground in Jamestown, Tennessee. We left Georgia on Wednesday and drove to Chattanooga for the night. We drove on here because we wanted to put batteries in the boats and check them out. We have a mechanic who is going to get them "lake ready" and we wanted to make sure they were ready for him. We had planned on going over to Sunset Dock yesterday and just as we arrived it started to rain. Long story short. . . it hasn't stopped since. We are high up on a hill. There has been some thunder and occasionally a gust, but nothing frightening. . . and nothing of that sort is expected. The high today is supposed to be 65*, so if it would quit raining, we would run over to the lake. Kind of hate to get out when it is pouring down rain.

I already had to bathe Neal once. Course, he just stumbles and falls when he gets out. I just let him roll around in the mud this morning until he got "the job" done, then carried him straight to the bathtub. He didn't like that much, but I am bigger than he is, so he is now one clean doggy. I will probaby have to repeat that scenario every time he goes out today. Fortunately Neal is smart enough when the weather is bad to only go out when absolutely necessary. So he goes out, "stops, squats and scores" in one "not so smooth" motion. Hah.

Tomorrow we start the trek for central Indiana. We are going to visit the doctors and then head for Virginia for Ronan's first birthday. A week there, then back to northern Indiana for a month.

Till next time. . .

Six of the Fallen, in Words They Sent Home

Unlike soldiers of some previous wars, who were only occasionally able to write letters, many who served and died in Iraq left behind an extraordinary electronic testimony.

March 25, 2008

By the time Specialist Jerry Ryen King decided to write about his experiences in Iraq, the teen-age paratrooper had more to share than most other soldiers.

Messages From the Front

Excerpts from the e-mail messages, journals and Web postings of six soldiers who died in Iraq since Jan. 1, 2007. Warning: Some entries contain language that could be offensive to readers.

Specialist Jerry Ryen King

Spc. Jerry Ryen King "I have to say that the events that I have encountered here have changed my outlook on life."

Staff Sgt. Juan Campos

Staff Sgt. Juan Campos "I can't wait to get out of this place and return to you where I belong."

Sgt. Ryan M. Wood

Sgt. Ryan M. Wood "It's a losing battle... and we're the ones ultimately paying the price."

Specialist Daniel E. Gomez

Specialist Daniel E. Gomez "If you're reading this, then something has happen to me and I am sorry."

Pfc. Daniel J. Agami

Pfc. Daniel J. Agami "I was convoyed up to northern Iraq to learn a new weapon system. It soooooooo cool..."

Pfc. Ryan J. Hill

Pfc. Ryan J. Hill "I can't stop asking why? The more I think the more I cry."

In two operations to clear the outskirts of the village of Turki in the deadly Diyala Province, Specialist King and the rest of the Fifth Squadron faced days of firefights, grenade attacks and land mines. Well-trained insurgents had burrowed deep into muddy canals, a throwback to the trenches of World War I. As the fighting wore on, B-1 bombers and F-16s were called in to drop a series of powerful bombs.

Once the area was clear of insurgents, the squadron, part of the 82nd Airborne Division, uncovered hidden caches with thousands of weapons.

Two months later, Specialist King, a handsome former honors student and double-sport athlete from Georgia, sat down at his computer. In informal but powerful prose, he began a journal.

After 232 long, desolate, morose, but somewhat days of tranquility into deployment, I’ve decided that I should start writing some of the things I experienced here in Iraq. I have to say that the events that I have encountered here have changed my outlook on life...

The most recent mission started out as a 24-36 hour air-assault sniper mission in a known al-Qaida stronghold just north of Baghdad. We landed a few hours before daybreak and as soon as I got off the helicopter my night vision broke, I was surrounded by the sound of artillery rounds, people screaming in Arabic, automatic weapons, and the terrain didn’t look anything like what we were briefed. I knew it was going to be a bad day and a half.

Jerry Ryen King, journal entry, March 7, 2007

A month later, Specialist King was sitting inside his combat outpost, an abandoned school in Sadah, when suicide bombers exploded two dump trucks just outside the building. The school collapsed, killing Specialist King on April 23, 2007, along with eight other soldiers, and making the blast one of the most lethal for Americans fighting in Iraq.

In that instant, Specialist King became one of 4,000 service members and Defense Department civilians to die in the Iraq war — a milestone that was reached late Sunday, five years since the war began in March 2003. The last four members of that group, like the majority of the most recent 1,000 to die, were killed by an improvised explosive device. They died at 10 p.m. Sunday on a patrol in Baghdad, military officials said; their names have not yet been released.

The next day we cleared an area that made me feel as if I were in Vietnam. Honestly, it was one of the scariest times of my life. At one point I was in water up to my waist and heard an AK fire in my direction. But all in all the day was going pretty good, no one was hurt, I got to shoot a few rounds, toss a grenade, and we were walking to where the helicopter was supposed to pick us up.

Jerry Ryen King, journal entry, March 7, 2007

The year 2007 would prove to be especially hard on American service members; more of them died last year than in any other since the war began. Many of those deaths came in the midst of the 30,000-troop buildup known as “the surge,” the linchpin of President Bush’s strategy to tamp down widespread violence between Islamic Sunnis and Shiites, much of it in the country’s capital, Baghdad. In April, May and June alone, 331 American service members died, making it the deadliest three-month period since the war began.

But by fall, the strategy, bolstered by new alliances with Sunni tribal chiefs and a decision by the Shiite cleric Moktada al-Sadr to order his militia to stop fighting, appeared to be paying off as the country entered a period of relative calm. Military casualties and Iraqi civilian deaths fell, and the October-December period produced the fewest casualties of any three months of the war. The past month, though, has seen an uptick in killings and explosions, particularly suicide bombings. Much of the violence has traveled north to Mosul, where the group calling itself Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia remains strong.

Everything changed in a matter of 15 minutes... About the time I was opening my MRE (meal ready to eat) I heard an explosion. Everyone started running towards the sound of the explosion. Apparently a suicide bomber had blown himself up killing four soldiers from my squadron and injuring another. Our 36 hour mission turned into another air- assault into a totally different city, the clearing of it, and 5 more days. We did find over 100 RPG’s, IED making materials, insurgents implacing IED’s, artillery rounds, a sniper rifle, and sort of like a terrorist training book and cd’s.

Jerry Ryen King, journal entry, March 7, 2007

Unlike the soldiers of some previous wars, who were only occasionally able to send letters back home to loved ones, many of those who died left behind an extraordinary electronic testimony describing in detail the labor, the fears and the banality of serving in Iraq.

In excerpts published here from journals, blogs and e-mail messages, six soldiers who died in the most recent group of 1,000 mostly skim the alarming particulars of combat, a kindness shown their relatives and close friends. Instead, they plunge readily into the mundane, but no less important rhythms of home. They fire off comments about holiday celebrations, impending weddings, credit card bills, school antics and the creeping anxiety of family members who are coping with one deployment too many.

At other moments, the service members describe the humor of daily life down range, as they call it. Hurriedly, with little time to worry about spelling or grammar, they riff on the chaos around them and reveal moments of fear. As casualties climb and the violence intensifies, so does their urge to share their grief and foreboding.

A Last Goodbye

your other half
Juan Campos, e-mail message to his wife, Dec. 12, 2006.

When Staff Sgt. Juan Campos, 27, flew from Baghdad to Texas for two weeks last year, there was more on his mind than rest and relaxation. He visited his father’s grave, which he had never seen. He spent time with his grandparents and touched base with the rest of his rambling, extended family.

The day he was scheduled to return to war, Sergeant Campos and his wife went out dancing and drinking all evening with friends. Calm and reserved by nature, Sergeant Campos could out-salsa and out-hip-hop most anyone on the dance floor. At the airport, his wife, Jamie Campos, who had grown used to the upheaval of deployment, surprised herself.

thanks for sharing this Roldo

I had missed it. I admit I had cordoned off a part of myself on this topic. I had succumbed to Bush's plan - don't show the caskets, don't show the footage. This though is the real deal. I had a good cry, even some screaming alone in my house - upsetting only myself and the dog however.

Then I went for a walk to calm down. I called my sister whose son teaches US History in a High School in New Hampshire. I told her, I am sending this to Seth and suggesting that he have his students read it aloud in the classroom. Then they can do one of three things, enlist, revolt or turn a blind eye again on the stupidity of war.

Later she sent this to me.

Finding Political News Online, the Young Pass It On

It reminded me that I had just sent what you posted to her and her son and that a few weeks ago my other nephew had blasted out an email with a link to Obama's speech about race broadcast on Youtube.

Maybe there is hope for grassroots change with this newfangled technology. Maybe one thing we could find support for would be a war crimes tribunal with George and Dick in the pyre.

What do we do?

I want to believe that talking out loud in cyberspace makes change, but what if we are just spinning our wheels? We are all so downtrodden by the machine in this country.  I can shake my fist at George Bush and Dick Cheney, but what does it accomplish?  Our society is so brainwashed and semi-conscious.

talking out loud in cyberspace makes change

It is not just talking out loud in cyberspace but rather a digital revolution that makes a difference, for and against change... if we only knew what our cyberidentities look like in the US government's eyes... but that is "Homeland Security". It is still up to people to make choices in how they live their lives and if they are stuck in the old economy they are part of the problem for the new economy, and the world. So,  Cleveland, eat a Whopper, throw back a Bud and get ready for yet another failing season yelling Wahoo.

Disrupt IT

opening the world in my breakfast room

This medium has changed my life. I so appreciate being able to air my questions, sometimes have them answered, exchange ideas, correspond, connect with the like minded and with those who can teach me.

I will forever be grateful to Jeff Schuler who said "I have been listening to Paul Hawken at the Long Now Foundation..." I went home, googled the talk and wow! Hope springs eternal. I had lost it, but in that moment, that aside, I found a new gateway. Realneo has brought me so much learning and so much support.

I won't be eating any whoppers and would more likely savor a Dortmunder Gold, the Indian's scores mean nothing to me, but I do relish the thought of some warm walks along the rivers and lakefront, maybe a kayak adventure with Ed Hauser and plenty more changemaking and learning from all of you via this little machine with a flickering screen.

I heard last night that my post about Apalachicola is being shared with their Chamber of Commerce. Whoda thunk? But with the www, we can do these things.

Trickle down to Apalachicola

You are new economy. That means you live everywhere, including Apalachicola (and Cyburbia, the Planning Community), all the time, and IT will allow you to physically return to Apalachicola any time you like (which it seems you like very much). Glad to hear they are picking up your wisdom down there... they should make you their economic development director.... I'll build realApalachicola for them and we'll relax on the porch at the Gibson Inn... my family needs a vacation and that sounds just about right. See if you can set that up.

Disrupt IT

new media revolution

I wholeheartedly agree that social computing has been transformational for me on a personal level.  I am constantly impressed at the power these technologies have in proliferating activism, for better or worse.   I'd certainly put Van's work and integration with new media technology in the 'betterment' column!

Michael Monsoor

  When does the nightmare end?  Rest in peace Michael Monsoor.

How much more of this do we have to endure?

Nothing is sacred in this country.  Nothing.

Waste and our forgotten fallen

  My sister sent me this link.

We go on, day after day, and forget the carnage.   It's time to say enough is enough.

The Definitive Guide To Effortless Weight Loss With Tea

Back to list of posts

is?X0jkg8PXaOjZaRRW79uxZtVPoZMAuWy9NnJyNjEPqrc&height=238 Whatever the extremely great purpose, Del Rio offered the following guidelines for throwing your personal tea time. Instant coffee powders are made by brewing coffee, evaporating all the water from the brew under a vacuum, and then adding back aromatics that are lost throughout the evaporation. Not anything you can approximate in the home kitchen.If you have any questions about wherever and how to use similar webpage, you can get in touch with us at our webpage. Even the most novice tea drinker can most likely brew a decent cup. A taxi driver advised us to pay a visit to Mackwoods Labookellie factory, about six miles from Nuwara Eliya. There, we enjoyed a freshly brewed cup of orange pekoe even though looking out more than emerald-green fields. On the way back, we stopped off at 100-metre-higher Ramboda Falls, where visitors can stroll along the prime of the cascade toward its supply. We also had a wonderful trip to Cinnamon Island in the Madu Ganga wetlands an hour's drive north of Galle. You can only get there by boat, but this will not price you a lot more than $20. There, our tiny group was shown how cinnamon is created from the inner bark of specific trees the bark appears like rolled up paper when they are done.A very fine particle tea like Nilgiri Tea is denser and as a result a lot more tea fits on a spoon, so one would possibly only use a scant or level teaspoon per cup. With a extremely massive leafed bulky tea only a little bit of leaf would rest on the teaspoon, so you would possibly use two heaping teaspoons per cup. The approximate weight of these two would then be the identical.Or pop by our brand new eteaket Retailer, 111 Rose Street, Edinburgh for all your loose leaf, teabag and teaware needs. Not only that, we showcase the latest brewing techniques, masterclasses for tea recipes and offer you delicious tastings all through the day making use of our Tea Syphons.White tea is a mild, sweet and fresh tea, that comes from a very healthful and rarer variety of the identical plant as green tea (Camellia sinensis). If you wish to steer clear of plastic, get loose leaf tea, do not buy tea in tea bags. Some delicate black teas (like 1st Flush Darjeelings) require reduce brewing temperatures of around 180 F to 190 F. However, most black teas can be brewed among 200 F and 212 F.Individual teas can be treated as ingredients, parts of a entire, as they carry a subtlety that bolshie breakfast tea lacks. This is much less surprising than it may seem: earl grey is a great, if divisive, flavour because it answers sultry tobacco with bergamot's citrus green.Serve. White tea should be served as it is, unadulterated. You could pick to pour milk or sugar in the white tea, but the already subtle flavor of the tea will be drowned out. Press the Keep WARM button prior to, for the duration of or soon after completion of the tea brewing or water heating cycle. The button surround will illuminate, indicating the 'Keep Warm' function has been selected.A quantity of substances in the leaf contribute to the flavor and aroma of green tea. The all round flavor and sweetness of green tea is determined by a selection of amino acids and similar webpage natural sugars. Bitterness and astringency are contributed by polyphenols ("tannins"). Amino acids dissolve at 140°F (60 °C) while tannins dissolve at 176°F (80°C). For that reason, brewing green tea at reduce temperatures will make sure that its sweet and complicated flavors will not be overpowered by the bitter-tasting flavors.Tisanes (a.k.a. 'herbal teas') come from a lot of various plants, so their brewing guidelines vary extensively. A couple of (like catnip and yerba mate ) should not be steeped in water that is completely boiling. Others (like fennel seed ) need to be boiled to release their complete flavor. (Truly boiling teas or tisanes creates a decoction rather than an infusion.) Even so, generally speaking, water at a complete boil (212 F) will work.The types of tea are white tea, green tea, yellow tea, oolong tea, black tea, and pu-erh tea. "When you have the title 'white tea' or 'green tea', you happen to be truly describing the approach by which it has been made," Woollard says. PG Ideas and their brand ambassadors, comedian Jonny Vegas and his monkey puppet, recommended that their pyramid tea bags had been far better at letting the flavour flood out than round ones.For instance, for a 20-ounce glass of iced carbonated tea, use the quantity of tea advised for 20 ounces—but then brew in only 6 ounces of hot water (use the temperature and brew time specified for that specific tea). When tea is harvested, the older leaves are utilised to produce reduced top quality, stronger teas such as economy teas.Over 70 years later, some of us nonetheless wonder how to brew the ideal cup, as tea has grow to be an intricate component of our day-to-day ritual. There are a lot of theories and ideologies behind making the ideal tea and everyone has their personal favorite way, the way their mom taught them. If you want to uncover out much more about generating that ideal cuppa, right here are some tips and tricks from experts in the science of producing tea.

What's up in space

Turn your cell phone into a field-tested satellite tracker. Works for Android and iPhone.

Satellite flybys

FARSIDE ACTIVITY: This morning, March 4th, multiple flares erupted behind the sun's eastern limb. NASA's STEREO-B spacecraft detected a shadowy shock wave in the sun's atmosphere while the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) recorded at least two plasma clouds billowing into space. Today's blasts were not Earth-directed, but future blasts could be geoeffective as the active zone turns toward our planet in the days ahead.

AURORA WATCH: A high-speed solar wind stream is buffeting Earth's magnetic field and lighting up the Arctic Circle with auroras. Last night in the Finnish town of Salla, B.Art Braafhart pulled over for a snapshot:

Photo details: Fujifilm Finepix S100FS, f2.8, ISO 400, 13-30 sec.

"For a moment the 'flames' were so intense, the picture was totally overexposed!" says Braafhart. "After that, we saw a variety of dancing shapes--curtains, screws, omegas, rays. It was an evening not to forget!"

High latitude sky watchers should remain alert for auroras as the solar wind continues to blow.

SPACE STATION FLYBYS: On March 1st, the International Space Station flew over Germany with a double-docking of spacecraft alongside. Both space shuttle Discovery and Europe's new Kepler robotic supply ship were mated to the outpost, providing an extra-large target for backyard telescopes. Click on the image to enjoy the view through astrophotographer Dirk Ewer's 5-inch refractor:

"It was impressive to see the shifting colors of the main solar panels as the sun-angle changed during the overpass," says Ewers. "I also liked the 3-dimensional feel created by Discovery's shadow playing across the station's exoskeleton."

More flybys like this are in the offing--both for Europe and North America. Check the Simple Satellite Tracker (or your cell phone) to find out when to look.
