"Immigrant communities have waited too long for House Republicans to catch up with the American public's support for comprehensive immigration reform," the letter states.
Senate Democrats claiming they have the "American public's support" right now is like Marie Antoinette claiming how much the French masses love her. If it wasn't for Michelle Obama outlawing everything that tastes good (more Obama unilateral power), we bet Senator Mumbles would have already sent out a press release stating Coloradans can eat cake, as well.
With Obama's popularity still in the cellar here in Colorado, Bennet's stated desire for Obama to have more power, is certainly putting Bennet's neck on the line… politically speaking of course.


In the summer of 1986, I was invited to an Evangelistic Conference in Amsterdam, Holland sponsored by the Billy Graham Association. There was about 8,000 Evangelists from all over the world there. One of the things that stood out to me was the importance that was put on THE WORD OF GOD.
The other day someone called me and said they wanted some advice and when they asked that question I was reminded of 2nd Timothy 3:16 & 17 which reads in the LBT, "16 The whole Bible was given to us by inspiration from God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives; it straightens us out and helps us do what is right. 17 It is God's way of making us well prepared at every point, fully equipped to do good to everyone." God speaks to us in many different ways, but I believe His main communication with you and I is His holy word.
The best advice that I can give you today is to get advice today through taking out your Bible, reading it, studying it, and believing it.
This is Bro. Shep asking you to think about it.

I live right outside the foothills in Colorado, close enough to see the leaves change, but far enough away to miss the early snowfalls of the season. The mountains have already gotten about 6" of snow this past week, while the temperatures at the bottom have waned between 52 and 80 degrees.
While the resort areas are gearing up for more snow, we're just starting to feel the first signs of fall. All of the stores have their pumpkin displays neatly piled up on top of hay bales, with fall leaf springs strewn throughout. A pretty site indeed.
While I love those type of displays, I would much rather drive around and find the colors of fall imbedded in nature's own raw bounty. Colorado never disappoints when you're looking for anything beautiful in nature to stop you in your tracks.
I found this scene in the yard of an abandoned house. How pretty, and definitely fall. It was hard to believe that someone would uproot themselves from this property. It sits at the edge of the woods, right outside of the hub-bub of the city.
Can you believe this house is empty? Since I have a very curious nature, I had to peek in the windows. Everything was original to the house, and there was even a servant's kitchen off to the side. Someone of stature must have lived here at one time. I've snuck back up to this property during every season to take pictures. Once I caught it during a heavy snow, and it literally stopped me in my tracks it was so beautiful.
You'll see those pictures show up here at Christmas time.
Enjoy the freshness in the air, and look for the beauty that surrounds you.
Looks beautiful up there! I have lived in Texas my whole life until recently. I love experiencing the fall season now!
What a fabulous house! Hopefully someone will come along, see it's potential, and snap it up! Be sure to make friends if someone does!

I have completed a law degree at the [University] with an upper second class degree. I am applying for the [language] Speaking Paralegal position advertised on reed.co.uk. I am available at the beginning of [month], [year] and would be willing to negotiate the salary.
I am very enthralled by the prospect of working as a paralegal because it will allow me to assume the role of a project manager and will afford me early responsibility. Given that law is both transactional and ongoing, it is clear that I will have to build a rapport with the client and apply strong communication skills coupled with high technical ability when forming a clear picture of the client's needs and objectives and then explaining what may well be a complex area of law when advising on the best solution. This may require me to liaise with a number of legal departments thus making each day a unique, enjoyable and fulfilling work experience.
Unlike other candidates, I have excellent leadership and project-management skills. Currently, I am managing several properties in [London Borough] which requires me to liaise with a number of different individuals and professional bodies; ranging from the local council and solicitors to surveyors and clients. This means that I would be able to assume early responsibility and liaise with a range of different bodies at the start.
I have the skill of working under pressure to meet approaching deadlines in a busy environment. At [law firm], I was required to complete research on a taxation subject-matter in a very short space of time, which has improved my problem solving skills and significantly improved my time management skills.
I have an ability to interchange between [language], English and [language] in a both legal and non-legal context. At [law firm], I was able to communicate with clients in [language] and then translate their requirements into English. As an executive of the [language] Speaking Society at university, I had to liaise and collaborate with a large number of [language] speakers when organising events, which has increased my confidence levels and consolidated my presentation skills. Similarly, At [company name], I was required to communicate in [language] to a number of [language]-speaking professionals in a busy commercial environment. This would therefore make me a valuable asset when working with [language] clients and would place me above other candidates when it comes to forming and maintaining strong relationships.
Furthermore, I am a very entrepreneurial and possess exceptional negotiation skills. At [law firm], I participated in a small-scale potential acquisition of a media firm. This required me to help the partners to draw up the heads of agreement through round table negotiation with the sellers as well as carry out due diligence investigations. At university, I was a dedicated representative of all law students at regular law school meetings where I had to negotiate on behalf of the law students. I not only remained abreast of current affairs, but also mooted them in regular debating sessions. Similarly, as a budding lawyer, I was always keen to get involved in mooting competitions to improve my ability to argue persuasively.
As a [language] paralegal, I will have an opportunity to apply my excellent linguistic skills in a commercial setting, thus making my work experience both personally and professionally rewarding. Likewise, as a person with great attention to detail and outstanding academic credentials, I will undoubtedly make a positive contribution to the firm's work and continuing success.
Please explain why you have decided to pursue a career as a solicitor?


I am a 46 D and only 5' tall. I do prefer a modest suit. Any suggestions?
I'm about 5" taller so I can't speak to size/torso length, but as far as modesty this fits the bill. I wear this for swimming or aqua fit class with no worries about spilling over at the bust. I love the racing stripes on the sides, they give a nice hourglass effect without showing a lot of skin.
This suit is perfect! It has a high neck, but the cups keep everything in place. The stripes showcase the curves - but modestly. I swim 5 days a week in a chlorinated pool and this suit still looks like brand new - even though I've had it for 8 months. Highly recommend!
This is my favorite water aerobics suit. It comes up to bottom.of my neck and high under my arms to contain my breasts. The suit feels like a full body sport bra.
I know I wear a size 26 but my bust size is only a c cup is there any way to get that sizes?
BEST ANSWER: Because this swimsuit is designed with a built-in shelf bra, our size 26 will accommodate up to DD cup, but a C-cup should be OK in this suit.
This suit is pretty accurate to size.
I wear a 16 but have a triple D cup.
But I manage to get this to work pretty well.
Are you getting these back in the larger sizes?
BEST ANSWER: They are expected in by February 15, 2019.. will be hitting the seas soon!
can I order the 26 w in both colors for back order?? or are they all sold out for the rest of the year? I love the back clasp.
BEST ANSWER: We will be receiving reorder stock, but it was just placed a week ago so restock isn't expected until February 2019. We are not taking reorders but surely hope you'll come back!
I struggle with the back clasp. Any ideas?
Why aren't you selling the Aquabelle brand suits anymore?
BEST ANSWER: All of our Chlorine Resistant swimwear is still very much exclusive to us however we just are no longer marketing them under the Aquabelle label. They are the exact same quality as Aquabelle!
Is there any bra support?
BEST ANSWER: It's wire-free, not underwire. This suit features an encircled shelf bra with soft wire-free molded cups which offer moderate, comfortable bust support.

On The Lupie Side Of The Street: Go Eat A Hot Pocket Already!
oh I understand you very well and I also have days like that, but not everyday is like that, right ??
I also hate being talked to like I'm in a stroller, it's demeaning to me, though I suspect people think that is the kindest way to talk, but it isn't. Maybe we need a sign !!
I like your list too, I think I need one but today is not a day for me to make a list, its a day to just get threw. Tomorrow I will try to make one.
You aren't whining either, nor are you complaining too much. You know I wish it was the law that everyone had to stand in our shoes for a day, just so they can get at least a hint as to what its like to be in our bodies. However, never forget, our bodies are just carry around who we really are, too bad others can't see that. I guess the world is made up of people who judge us by what they see on the outside. We need a sign also for the old saying 'never judge a book by it's cover'. I think we actually need a lot of signs.
Thanks for such an amazing, well thought out comment. I wish someone could stand in my shoes but I doubt anyone could fit. I have small feet! I used to have to use a wheel chair (so I totally understand the stroller thought). People would talk to my Mom instead of me. It was as if I couldn't understand or hear what they were saying. And in the winter time, I wear masks because my immune system is the pits. Yet people see me as if I have some contagious illness that I'm going to give their children. I'm only doing it to protect myself!
Maybe one day I'll make some awesome shirts with original designs. I'll be sure to send you one if ever I get around to it.
My list was made out of anger and frustration. I actually got chewed out by someone close to me about this blog. Oh well, they will get over it. I'm allowed to express how I feel in an angry way once in a blue moon.
Everyone is entitled to feeling like crap and venting frustrations. I think this blog enables you to do just that. You really get your point across, and I hope people who know you and read this can get the message. Hey, most of the time your blogs are pretty upbeat and cheerful. I'm sure it's frustrating to be dealing with an illness. There will always be those who can't understand your situation and might not be the most tactful in dealing with you. Don't worry about proving your adulthood to these people. Really, they're just looking out for you and are trying to be nice.
In the meantime, eat a hotpocket and relax in front of the TV. The last time I was at a SuperTarget, I dropped a gallon of laundry detergent, causing it to explode all over the aisle. I ran away, leaving my wife there looking like she did it. Now she won't allow me to go shopping with her anymore. Mission accomplished.
I really feel for you :-( You're right, nobody can ever feel exactly how you do because everyone is different but in the same way you can't expect people to respond to you in exactly the way you'd like because they can't feel what you do.
It must be super frustrating to be spoken to like you're a toddler but when people are trying to be nice, calm and helpful it often comes across as patronising, but without intent. If people were rude and dismissive of you, and didn't even bother trying to be nice, do you think you'd find that worse?
People are scared of what they don't understand, and I do believe that people don't take enough time trying understand better what they don't. I'm sure I'm guilty of that myself.
One thing's for sure though, anybody who has read your blog, or is fortunate enough to know you in person, will realise that you are an incredibly intelligent articulate woman, who is going through a lot and yet managing to still be a great person.
It's perfectly normal to vent, and I really encourage it. This blog is the perfect tool by which to get all your frustration out, so feel free to let rip. Believe me, people complain about a WHOLE lot less than you do!!
I would say one thing though, don't be too hard on your body, it didn't ask for this any more than you did (sounds odd to describe you as two separate entities). It's doing its best to cope with this illness but is finding it as challenging as you are.
One thing I've learned through my own experiences with destructive eating patterns, is that it's really important to love your body, and look after it as best you can, no matter what it looks or feels like as you're going to be living in it for a very long time.

This elegant vintage vehicle, finished in white with light beige interior, will enhance the character of your special day. With its original features intact this 1920s quality car makes a stunning backdrop to photographs. The large rear doors together with generous leg room make it an ideal choice.
Higher riding height than normal cars - so you get better views or can "sit back & wave like the Queen"
Period "storage" box at rear looks great for pictures but has no space for luggage.
Wooden wheels - you won't find these on many cars!


Well done to the winners of the Barley Class 'Design an Easter Egg' competition. All the eggs looked wonderful.
Year 6 had a wonderful World Book Day, dressing up as their favourite literary characters and designing spoons for a competition.
Children in Key Stage 2 took part in several activities across the different classrooms. In Barley class, the activity was focused on 'Fantastic Beasts', where the children created their own beasts and wrote descriptions about them.
Barley class worked in pairs to solve the Celebrity Tweets, as they had used the incorrect Homophones.
Pupils identified the incorrect homophone and then used their spelling skills to write the correct spelling.
PCSO Marc Island visited Barley class to talk to them about Social Media and Internet safety. He also spoke to the Y6 pupils about hate crime and hate incidents and how these should be reported.
On Monday 21st January, year 6 were very excited to share our recent learning with family and friends, as part of our learning share.
We have been looking at key individuals linked to social justice - such as Martin Luther King Jr and Rosa Parks.
Inspired by Dr King's speech - 'I Have A Dream' - we created some poetry on the theme of social change and looking after our planet. Alongside our poems, we crafted some vibrant dream catchers.
We also produced some news reports, in the style of journalists, about Rosa Parks unfair treatment on a bus in 1955.
The children have been very enthused with this topic of learning and were also eager to share posters and art they had created linked to themes of social justice, such as human rights and equality.
Thank you to everyone who was able to attend.
Can I solve problems with fractions?
Children in year 6 have been completing lots of work on calculations involving fractions. They have been working hard to compare and simplify fractions, moving on to using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. On Wednesday morning, the children worked in pairs to solve a range of fractions problems (both arithmetic and reasoning) and were able to explain the process required for the different types of problems. Lots of great work and good progress made.
Can I create a war poem using powerful and emotive language and Imagery?
Can I create Remembrance art using silhouettes and shading, using different mediums?
Barley Class work this week linked with remembrance Day. We analysed a range of different poems, written by different writers, on the war. We then used these as inspiration to write our own war poems using powerful language and imagery.
We also used a range of art mediums to create silhouette artwork linked to Remembrance Day. To create the background we used the shading technique to create a sunset effect.
Some of these were also shared on our Remembrance Service on Friday.
Mrs. Brady is delighted to announce that 22 children in Year 6 have chosen to continue learning the viola. She is looking forward to developing their technique and extending the repertoire of pieces that they will play this year.
Children in Barley class helped raise money for MacMillan Cancer Support at Stanford Library, on Friday morning. The children performed several poems in groups, three of which were written entirely by the children themselves. They performed very well then enjoyed some cakes and juice after making a small donation to the charity.
This morning, Barley class were treated to a special visitor from the '7 Billion Ideas' project. We watched some videos and heard some inspirational stories of young people who had come up with world changing ideas and inventions (sometimes leading them to become multi-millionaires!) We will be taking part in #ROAR2018, where the children will be working in small groups to work on enterprising projects, inventing products of their own and making models and marketing materials.
The Caistor Lions have generously funded the project and a representative from them may be helping with our judging in a few months time. Over the next few weeks we will be building on the children's initial ideas and we will keep our blog updated with our progress.
We are so impressed with the home learning that has been brought in so far. It's wonderful to see the effort that so many of the class have put into the range of tasks. Well done Barley!
Can I re-tell a myth story using drama?
In Barley class we have been having lots of fun this week, learning about different Ancient Greek myths. In small groups we read the stories (Hercules, Perseus and Medusa, Theseus and the Minotaur) and the performed them for the rest of the class. We are also reading about the Adventures of Odysseus. We will explore the structure and language of myths in even more detail before we begin planning and writing our own stories!
Can I write a report about a creature using a range of sentence skills?
In Barley class, we have been learning about magical creatures through the wonderful book 'Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide'. We explored different beasts and worked on particular sentence skills to enhance our writing. After looking at examples, we then created our own creature and planned and wrote a report about them, including interesting facts about their appearance, behaviour and other feature.
The children in Barley class had lots of fun and a fantastic start to the term with our Ancient Greek Hook Day. Many of the class wore exciting costumes; dressed as soldiers, emperors, or even Gods and Goddesses. We designed and painted some terracotta pots in the style of Ancient Greek pottery as well as designing and crafting theatre masks and tasting some Greek salad! We look forward to sharing some of our work, as well as lots of writing and other art projects, in our class learning share that will take place before Christmas.
