Youth in focus: Lam, here's my question: My life never goes smoothly. I don't have big problems like a major sickness or an abusive husband, but somehow things never go right. There is always a problem and I never feel satisfied. What can I do?
Welcome to samsara (khorwa). Well, I'm going to give a very standard Buddhist reply to your question. In reality, your sense of dissatisfaction is not caused by problems in your life, but through lack of acceptance on how things really are. Basically, everything in the universe is compounded (made up of other things) and so are unreal and temporary. Like a rainbow or a mirage, we can see things around us, and in other cases also hear and touch them. However, if we closely examine these things we will find that they don't actually exist. Furthermore, once the conditions that created them (water, heat, light, etc. in the case of a rainbow or mirage) disperse, they will disappear like phantoms in a dream.
Ok, I hear you saying, I can understand that this is true for a rainbow or mirage, but what about something solid like the newspaper I'm holding or even my own body? Well, it is the same. The K2 that you are holding is made from paper. In turn, paper came from wood, which came from a tree that grew due to a seed's interaction with rain, sunlight and nutrition from soil. Our body is likewise composed of many elements. And, like a rainbow or mirage, the paper and our body will transform and its present form will disappear once the compounds that bind them together disperse.
So, how does this subject relate to your question? Well, we are all fooled into thinking that everything is solid and so we have expectations that they will last forever or at least for a long time. Feelings of dissatisfaction come when they do not. Cars, property, relationships are all compounded and so, in reality, no more real than a mirage, rainbow or the K2 that you are reading. That is why they never bring us anything more than fleeting pleasure. However, because we fail to understand this fact, we tend to act like a man who crawls to a mirage to seek water, but fails to investigate the mirage when he finds none. Instead, he just crawls to the next mirage and then the next. Consequently, his life is unsatisfactory and marked by disappointment.
Basically, you have to give up the idea that a new car, property or relationships can bring lasting joy. So, does that mean that we should not have relationships and never buy new things? No, but we need to approach them with right understanding. The guy in the desert did not suffer because of the mirage, but because he expected the mirage to provide him with water and quench his thirst. When it did not, he felt frustrated and unsatisfied.
The important message here is not to expect happiness from material things. Basically, you should do your job and your duty well, but without expectations. When the Buddha encouraged us not to get attached to material things or relationships, he was not trying to be a killjoy, but pointing out reality with the aim of liberating us from suffering and its causes.
Therefore, with respect to your question, it is not your life that is causing you to feel dissatisfied, but your lack of understanding of how things function. Of course, this is not to say that we should accept injustice just because everything is compounded and impermanent. Definitely, domestic violence, cheating partners or cruelty to others etc. needs resolute and immediate responses. At the same time, we should understand that relationships and material things couldn't give us lasting satisfaction.
With regard to how we deal with the world, perhaps this example will help. When the sun shines and it is warm, we enjoy our time outdoors. Yet, we know that the weather will not last, and rain may come the next day and the temperature will drop. When this occurs, we prepare an umbrella and wear warmer clothes. We don't get angry at the weather, but instead calmly accept that change is the nature of weather. Basically, we respond appropriately to the conditions, while accepting that everything will change and disappear. In this respect, everything we do in life should be infused by the wisdom of how the universe functions. If you can do this, you will exchange dissatisfaction and frustration with understanding and acceptance.

Home Lifestyle Chesed Soft Landing In Israel Through Disability Care, Inclusion
Soft Landing In Israel Through Disability Care, Inclusion
Chaim Schryer found his "Israeli family" and the assistance he needed for a smooth absorption process while volunteering for ALEH
By Noam Mirvis
For most, moving to Israel is the realization of a dream. After years of hoping and planning, making aliyah and taking root in the Jewish State is a joyous and exultant experience. Still, the big move is not without its challenges, and many new immigrants become frustrated while attempting to navigate Israeli bureaucracy, secure a job, and find the perfect neighborhood to call home.
The opportunities for gainful employment are virtually endless in the "Start-Up Nation," and there is no shortage of wonderful places to live, but cultural differences and the language barrier can stifle even the most enthusiastic and motivated immigrants to Israel. That's why many olim are choosing to volunteer for worthwhile nonprofit organizations during their first few months in the country to soften their landing. While supporting causes they believe in, these new immigrants are also able to interact with Israelis in a meaningful way, practice their Hebrew, and shake off their new-country jitters.
When Rachel Fishbein, 20, arrived from Woodmere, New York, she immediately sought out just such an experience. Having worked with children with special needs as a teenager, Fishbein was interested in finding a similar opportunity in Israel, preferably one that would help ease her absorption. After learning about ALEH, Israel's network of care for children with severe complex disabilities, Fishbein couldn't wait to get started.
"As soon as I walked into the ALEH center, I felt right at home. It was like I was instantly part of a community," said Fishbein, who has been volunteering in the early-intervention division at ALEH's residential and rehabilitative center in Jerusalem for over a year. "Working with young children is ideal for new olim because the children are more forgiving of your mistakes. I'm learning so much about myself and solidifying my Hebrew every day."
A passionate Zionist, Fishbein always knew that she would make aliyah, as she felt that "Israel is the home for all Jews." This truth is wonderfully evident at ALEH, where "every child is made to feel like they are a part of the Jewish people and a citizen of Israel, regardless of the severity of their disabilities," she explained.
Dr. Louisa Susman, director of the early intervention division, says that the children have benefited tremendously from the contributions of volunteers like Fishbein, though it's unclear who actually gains more from the experience.
Ayelet Mor, a new immigrant to Israel, found the soft landing she needed by volunteering for ALEH
"Volunteering with ALEH is an easy way to get to know the country and provides new immigrants with a slow adaptive process in a warm, familial setting," said Dr. Susman, who is a native of Englewood, New Jersey. "The language barrier is also not as harsh because we work with very young children up to age three who speak English and very basic Hebrew. We try to make it an easy experience for the volunteers, and they know that if they ever need any kind of help or advice, we are always readily available to talk to them and provide guidance."
When Ayelet Mor, 24, made aliyah from Cheshire, Connecticut, in September 2018, she was informed that she was too old to enlist in the IDF. Still, the University of Colorado graduate was determined to find a way to serve her new country and immerse herself into Israeli culture and society before starting her coursework for a master's degree in social work. Mor found that volunteering at ALEH was the perfect way to expand her social circles.
"It's definitely a great way to make aliyah. The ability to establish connections and build a network has helped tremendously with the immersion process," said Mor. "I have become very friendly with the Israeli girls my own age who are national-service volunteers at ALEH. They see me as just another Israeli, which I find refreshing and encouraging."
Mor is also inspired daily by the individual care provided to the residents, all of whom have severe complex disabilities, noting that the tenderness and professionalism displayed by the ALEH staff will stay with her as she pursues her dream of becoming a family therapist.
"I admire the staff so much. They are so patient and completely selfless. I am always in awe. They don't do this work for fame or riches—they come to work every day because they really care about every single individual. They truly see the potential of every child and give them all a chance to shine, to show the world what they have to offer."
Chaim Schryer, 20, a native of Manchester, UK, first encountered ALEH while touring Jerusalem in search of the right gap-year program a few months before his high school graduation. Ensnared in traffic at the entrance to the city, Schryer noticed that the sea of cars was surprisingly quiet, waiting patiently for a large procession to cross over the Chords Bridge. When his cab finally inched closer, Schryer saw that hundreds of people decked out in bright-green t-shirts were dancing and singing together with children with disabilities, all sporting the "most incredible smiles" he had ever seen.
Schryer later found out that it was ALEH's annual march to "bridge the gap" and encourage the integration and acceptance of Israel's disability community within Israeli society, and he decided that he needed to become a part of the ALEH family. Now, more than two years later, Schryer says that volunteering at ALEH was not only the most important element of his gap-year but the most influential experience of his life.
"When I saw the pure joy on the faces of the volunteers and the children, I knew that I had to get involved. And when I found out the deeper meaning behind the event, I was certain that I had found my new Israeli family," said Schryer, who volunteered for ALEH while attending a yeshiva program in Jerusalem. "With an eye on making aliyah, I took the opportunity to not just get involved but throw myself right into the heart of the operation, always offering to take on as much responsibility as they would allow."
Over the course of two years, Schryer visited ALEH every week to play with the children and assist them during their special-education classes and activities. He also attended every in-house Shabbaton and made sure that there was always someone on hand to make Havdallah for the ALEH residents on Saturday nights, often opting to take on the responsibility himself. When he decided to make Israel his permanent home halfway through his second year in yeshiva, ALEH stepped in to make the process as smooth as possible, helping him fill out forms, setting him up with host families for Shabbat, and providing him with opportunities to learn Hebrew at a high level.
"To me, ALEH represents the very best of Israel. ALEH welcomes all children regardless of their ethnic backgrounds, and the staff and volunteers leave their differences and political views at the door to work together to help the children grow and develop," said Schryer with a smile. "Everyone is welcome here. Everyone is loved. This is the real Israel, and I feel so fortunate to have kick-started my new life here."

Gloucester City Centre
Mum of disabled child hits out at lack of accessible changing facilities in Gloucester
"He is already limited by his wheelchair. He shouldn't be limited by having to go home early too"
Never miss the latest local news again by signing up to our Daily Newsletter
Mum Charlotte Pritchard has hit out at a lack of disabled changing facilities in Gloucester.
The 30-year-old, of Milton Avenue, has to cut short trips into the city centre with her five-year-old son Evan, because of a shortage of changing areas suitable for him.
Evan has spina bifida, which means his backbone has not developed normally and he needs a wheelchair.
Charlotte Pritchard with sons Evan, right, and Rhys
Because his catheter needs to be changed every four hours, Charlotte can only take him out in Gloucester for two or three hours before bringing him home.
This man has been barred from most of Gloucester city centre
She said: "He is already limited by his wheelchair. He shouldn't be limited by having to go home early too.
"He is too big for baby changing areas. I can't keep lifting him onto the floor, but in some places you don't have a choice.
Evan Pritchard, right, with his brother Rhys
"It's just a bed and a hoist that he needs. It is not that expensive, given the amount of money they are putting into the regeneration of the city.
"I have had to change him in the boot of a car before. It shouldn't be happening in this day and age. It is quite sad really."
Parents warned as teenagers join 'sick' 48-hour Facebook 'missing game'
Charlotte recalled how Evan and his four-year-old brother Rhys were upset about having to return home early from the beach installed at Gloucester Quays during the summer.
She added: "Evan does get a bit frustrated when we are juggling what we can do.
Debenham's is among the stores criticised
"If I have to put him on the floor he is pretty disgusted by it. And his brother hates it when his day is cut short."
Charlotte, a full-time carer for Evan, thinks the city's major shopping complexes and stores should consider bringing in disabled changing facilities. She also feels there is a shortage in Cheltenham.
She also claims the city centre toilets including those at major store Debenhams and at Eastgate Shopping Centre should be cleaned more often.

Linden Primary School, which Evan attends, built a facility for him and another pupil, which Charlotte described as "life-changing".

"We didn't even have to ask," she added.
City Councillor Lise Noakes, cabinet member for culture and leisure, thinks more disabled changing areas should be factored into Gloucester's regeneration.

She said: "I want culture available for all. We work with disabled people and listen to their needs.
"Anything I can influence, I certainly would. I am aware not all premises in Gloucester are as accessible to wheelchairs as they should be.
"We have a lot of regeneration to do and it is something we will be considering. It is something we will build into anything we are doing in the future.
"We shouldn't just be compliant with regulations, but also think about how we can design and change buildings so they are accessible to everybody."

The councillor believes the £7.5million bus station being built off Bruton Way will include a disabled changing facility.
A Debenhams spokesman said: "We have checked with the store team and the toilets are cleaned every 60 minutes.
"There is a disabled toilet that customers can use within the store. This is locked but can be opened upon request."
A spokesperson for Gloucester Quays said: "We recently developed our facilities with a new Access For All Toilet and we're currently looking at a number options to make our facilities even more accessible for our customers."
Eastgate Shopping Centre was approached for comment.

It's been a busy six months time for cell phone companies. First got Apple with all the iphone 4 8 combined with the very awaited phone X. Yahoo and google chimed along with its Pixel 2. Now it's Samsung's turn to join the bash. The brand new Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9 are set for your personal communicating, sending text messages and viewing satisfaction.
While the mobile phones are not "video game changers" they generally do symbolize some huge actions in changes, types that Samsung claims subject most to consumers. The mobile phones are identical dimension as their predecessors, the S8 and S8 . The monitors are a little bigger and happier.
A professional camera is on-board along with stereo audio speakers. New fun put-ins Samsung thinks users will greatly get pleasure from are enhanced slow movements video, AR emoji and photograph terminology translation. Like other Samsung mobile phones the S9s are water resistant. They feature an infinity show, a headset jack and wi-fi charging. Much better sound is assured for music streaming and also the online video can be done slow-moving, no we imply actually slow. Slower than which actually.
Cellphone digital cameras maintain getting better and better and the S9s simply click across the exact same course. Similar to their recently enhanced competitors the gadgets take sharper pictures in more challenging gentle. The phones use a two camera with an all new twin aperture that adapts to gentle much like the eye. Require more gentle you might have it. Will need much less light you can have that too.
The better digital camera may help along with your online video taking pictures. In fact there is a slow movement tool that can take video clips 32 periods more slowly than usual. The reduced video can provide you with some unusual photos. No matter what the end result Samsung will automatically match with it some songs to go in addition to the look and feel of your attempts.
Shoot one thing joyful and you will acquire some upbeat noises. Consider anything a tad bit more significant and Samsung will go with that also. The tunes might be tweaked as needed.

Hair and garments might be tailored. Glasses along with other add-ons are often extra. You are able to look as a bunny or cat too.
Despite your emoji taste, all this shows up in 18 preset GIFs attached to the computer keyboard. Need to have one thing interpreted? The mobile phones can help with this too. Similar to Google's Translate application, it is possible to carry it up to a signal and get a language translation in your local terminology. The iphone app works in 54 different languages.
Not to be outdone by Apple, Samsung's telephones offer increased face treatment reputation referred to as "Wise Check out". Now skin reputation is blended with a scanner. A brand new device enables you to wide open the phone with your iris or complete experience according to the sunlight. Sound is touted to become crisper and louder around the stereo system speaker systems tuned by AKG. Samsung statements the audio is 1.4x stronger than previous Galaxy cell phones. Dolby Atmos modern technology will offer a multiple-dimensional, theater-like noise experience.
Offered shades involve black colored, light blue and crimson. A grey alternative will likely be accessible in the future. As you may would count on, the price is on-par with similar phones yet still under $1,000. The S9 will have a little around $700, even though the S9 will set you back all around $840. When numerous updates make your telephones more adaptable and a lot more fun, there is a lesser amazing factor in comparison to debuts by other merchandise. Nonetheless the latest S9s include adequate put to supply a genuine Android mobile phone centered challenger to the Apple X and also other competing cellular devices.

For ten thousand years native people lived on the site of the city of Toronto. The first European to reach the area was a Frenchman named Etienne Brule in 1615. However the first European settlement was a French trading fort called built in Fort Rouille about 1750. However following the Seven Years War (1756-1763) control of Canada passed to Britain. Then in 1793 the first governor of Upper Canada, John Graves Simcoe founded a new town. He called the new town York in honor of the Duke of York and he made it the capital of Upper Canada.
In April 1813 during the War of 1812 the Americans captured Toronto and they burned a number of buildings. However the Americans soon withdrew. After the war ended in 1815 Toronto grew rapidly as many British immigrants arrived. Toronto University was founded in 1827. However in 1832 Toronto suffered an outbreak of cholera. Yet the town soon recovered and continued to flourish. Toronto's first post office opened in 1833. Then in 1834 Toronto was incorporated as a city (its name was changed from York to Toronto). The town continued to grow rapidly. In 1841 Toronto gained gas street lights. In 1849 Toronto suffered a severe fire but it soon recovered. St Lawrence Hall was built in 1850 and by 1851 Toronto was a flourishing town of 30,000 people. Furthermore the railway reached Toronto in 1853. From 1861 horse drawn street cars ran in the streets of Toronto. They were electrified in 1892.
Meanwhile In 1867 Toronto was made the capital of Ontario. During the 19th century the population of Toronto soared as immigrants poured into the city. By 1891 the population of Toronto was over 180,000.
In 1904 Toronto suffered another severe fire. It began on 19 April 1904 and raged through the night but fortunately nobody was killed. Once again Toronto soon recovered. The Ontario Museum opened in 1914 and Union Station opened in 1927. However Toronto suffered badly in the depression of the 1930s. However prosperity returned with the Second World War. The population of Toronto continued to boom. Meanwhile The first subway line in Toronto opened in 1954. Yorkdale Shopping Centre opened in 1964 and Toronto City Hall opened in 1965. Ontario Science Museum opened in 1969. CN Tower was built in 1975. Eaton Centre opened in 1977 and Roy Thomson Hall opened in 1982. The Rogers Centre opened in 1989. In 1998 several municipalities were merged to form a single city sometimes known as the megacity.
Today Toronto is a flourishing city. Toronto is a major financial centre. In the population 2018 of Toronto was 2.8 million. Toronto is the fifth largest city in North America and it still growing steadily.

The path to the world of extreme at One Night Stand is approaching quickly and the action is heating up here tonight. GM Vickie Guerrero makes a huge announcement in regards to the type of pay-per-view match to be had between Edge and The Undertaker for the vacant title. Some strong tag wrestling and a not to be missed war between MVP and Batista are also on the agenda this evening. From the Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines, Iowa it is time to lay on the Smackdown!
Vickie Guerrero and Edge come to the top of the ramp and the crowd is all over the General Manager. Vickie states that no one knows how hard it is to run a TV show and that she made the correct call on keeping the title vacant. She announces "the most extreme match of all time" for One Night Stand. A TLC, that's right Table, Ladders, and Chairs, oh my! Guerrero's final comment is that The Undertaker will be fired if he loses.
How could Deuce and Domino dump poor, innocent Cherry? As per usual Festus goes crazy and lays a quick beatdown on Domino before tagging out to Jesse. Without the white t-shirt, and his sizeable nose, Domino looks like a young Triple H! Jesse becomes isolated and is punished by fast tags between the former tag team champions. The girls finally get to have a go at it and it is Cherry who takes charge courtesy of some forearms and a running bulldog. Everyone charges in the ring and the finish comes when Maryse delivers a terrible looking kick (where she falls over afterwards) for the pin.
In Vickie's office Chavo is told that he will be facing The Undertaker tonight. Guerrero is initially upset but settles down when Edge informs him that he will have Bam Neely, Ryder, Hawkins, and even himself at ringside.
It is time for the VIP Lounge and special guest, former Smackdown employee Theodore Long who quit last week. MVP calls an audible and now says he will not let Long tell his story and instead will insult him for the hell the former GM put him through. Teddy goes to leave, but the former U.S. champ grabs him. Suddenly Batista, leather vest and all, storms in. The Animal states that he is simply here to wish Teddy good luck…and if MVP lays his hands on Long again that he will personally shove his fist down his throat. Batista comments that he didn't mean to be disrespectful, and then trashes the VIP Lounge set. MVP simply walks away in a huff.
MVP storms into GM Guerrero's office complaining about Batista. Much to the chagrin of MVP she puts him in a bout with The Animal tonight!
Finlay starts off by working a left leg lock on Palumbo and follows that up with a couple of big right hands. Chuck is able to over power the Irishman, landing some heavy kicks and punches of his own. Hornswaggle distracts the biker with some water gun squirts and this allows Finlay to catch Palumbo with a running clothesline on the outside. Palumbo catches Hornswoggle and smacks him into the apron. It looks to be lights out for the leprechaun, however, he sprays green mist into Chuck's eyes. Finlay connects with a shillelagh while the ref's back is turned and sneaks out a win.
The two begin slowly with some lockups and reversals. Following the commercial break MVP is in full control, and this is because of a ferocious running boot that sent Batista up and over the top rope. MVP has been in charge for quite awhile now by successfully working over the left shoulder and generally wearing down The Animal. MVP looks to set up for another running kick, but is caught by a spear out of nowhere. Batista is able to hit a spinebuster and a thunderous Batista Bomb for the comeback victory. Match of the night thus far.
SQUASH ALERT! Does anyone else think it is time to give Kozlov a real opponent. We get it Vladimir, you are a tough guy. Nunzio manages to score a couple of punches, but is quickly crushed by the mighty Russian.
Matt Hardy is so over with the audience as they pop for every move he delivers on Burke. Elijah is able to fight out of a Side Effect and brings him to his team's corner for Benjamin to work on. Hardy is able to make the hot tag to Kingston following a Side Effect on Shelton. Kingston has some tremendous athleticism and scores a near fall after a superb twisting cross body off the top. Kofi nails Benjamin with a leaping spin kick and avenges his loss from ECW this past week.
Chavo looks cocky as he struts down to the ring with his entourage. That attitude quickly changes as Taker lands some shots with those soup bone fists and couples that with Old School. Guerrero ties up the official and La Familia takes advantage by rushing The Dead Man. Referee Charles Robinson ejects all members from ringside, except Bam Neely, and all of a sudden Mr. Guerrero is all on his own. He uses his speed to stun Undertaker, however, Chavo is neutralized when Taker catches him on the outside. Chavo escapes two chokeslams thanks to a Neely distraction and this allows Guerrero to hit a low blow. Taker sits straight up, catches Chavo on a cross body attempt, and spins him around to connect with the tombstone. That is all she wrote as Undertaker takes the win.

Hello folks! This started out to be a tour of the yard and the farm then I became sidetracked. I started looking at old photos and memories started coming back so vividly. I spent a lot of time on the farm when I was a kid, mostly with my grandpa, but a lot of the time I was by myself exploring. Grandpa kept pretty much everything so there was always something to find. So, this post wound up being about the farm and several memories about my grandparents.
I took a screenshot of the above photo from the Maps app on my iMac. It would be nice to know the date, but as I zoomed in as close as I could get, I could tell it is definitely NOT current.
The farm runs at an angle on the south side along the former Rock Island Railroad which is now a public trail. The Farrington Park is on the other side of the trail. Our home is in the lower left corner which is the northeast corner of the farm. County Line Road runs north and south which is one of only two streets that run parallel to the universe in the whole town. The street is called County Line Road because it is a boundary line between Henry and Pettis County. Although our farm is not in the city limits, the church next door (north side), the park, and across the street are in the city limits.
So, I tried Google Earth which is also NOT current. The Farrington Park is next to the farm and it says "Windsor Christmas Display". While the above photo does show the trees changing color in the fall, if the Christmas displays were up in the park the trees would be bare. The bales of hay are also in the hay fields, so I know this is not a current photo because I move the hay off the fields long before fall. When I zoomed in closer I could tell the hay was being moved off the field because some of the bales are in the lot we keep the hay and there are tractor tire marks in the hay field. You can tell some of the hay has been moved and some are still there. I also put the hay in the lot different than dad did and I didn't start moving the hay until 2014. We cut some trees down between the hay lot and hayfield in 2013 and the trees are in this photo… Since I moved back here in 2013, there have always been blackberry vines growing in the electric fence around the hay field… There are none in this photo.
Back when I was a kid there weren't as many trees in the fence rows. Grandpa only had one hayfield, which is the area that kind of looks like a triangle. Dad started using another 12 acres for hay as well which is in the left side of the photo. The boundary line between the farm and the trail is grown up in blackberry vines and Japanese Honeysuckle now. The fence, for the most part, doesn't even exist. Dad said the people who trim for the power company tore the fence up many years ago and no one ever replaced it.
The garden looks strange, though… The shrubs in the front of the house don't look like that now, and haven't for several years, because I let them grow together to kind of make a hedge. There are some other interesting things about this photo. Dad's car isn't in the garage and the pickup isn't in the driveway. It is possible he had the pickup under a shade tree but if it were after 2013, unless I wasn't home, my Ford Explorer would be in the driveway on the left. The pickup is usually in the center driveway. If I could zoom in clearly on the flower bed behind the foundation I could tell you 100% if it was 2013 or after. Well, either way, it is quite obvious it is before 2013.
My grandparents bought the farm in the 1950's and bought a "kit home" from Aladdin Homes possibly in 1958. I found a 1958 catalog with the words written: "our home" on the page of the home they selected. I also found the complete set of blueprints that came with the kit. They bought the kit and it came by rail and the railroad left the boxcar on the tracks next to the farm. Grandpa only had a certain amount of time to unload the boxcar because the train would be coming back to pick it up. There was only one set of tracks… I found the above photo online, but the drawing in the catalog showed a white house.
Grandpa was never much of a carpenter and usually didn't use enough nails, or even enough boards for that matter. It was a good thing the kit came with everything, but even so, there were boxes of parts in the basement he didn't use. Such as a few glass door knobs and window locks he never put on. There was an old barn where the lagoon is now… Grandpa and Uncle Author (grandmas sister's husband) went somewhere and tore it down and brought it back and rebuilt it. It was put together with square nails, which they saved, and used to put it back together. It was very old and you had to be very careful walking around in the loft when putting hay in it. I fell through once when I was a kid… Dad tore it down after they moved here in 1996. The barn that is still here, according to dad, was also torn down by grandpa and Uncle Author and rebuilt.
When I was in high school, one of the Vo-Ag teachers found an old 1960 Missouri Poultry Association Yearbook. It was pretty thick and there were chicken house plans from the University of Missouri Extension. One of the floor plans was the chicken house grandpa built. I don't think grandpa built it because it is very well made. The walls and roofs 2 x 4's are on 16″ centers like a house which grandpa wouldn't have done himself. The old rabbit house that was next to the chicken house was the same size as the 20′ x 30′ chicken house. There was no concrete floor and there were only four poles on each side, a couple in the center, and on each end that held it up. By the time I tore it down in the early 1980's you could actually move it from side to side. There were several other small outbuildings and other chicken and rabbit coops.
I took this photo of the foundation where my grandparents home was on June 24, 2013. I moved to the farm after my grandpa passed away at 83 in April 1981 and lived here until July 1987. Grandma was a diabetic and my mother came to their home every morning and evening to give her a shot. So, when grandpa died she went to live with my parents. My grandparents used to own the home where my parents lived (where I grew up) and grandma's parents lived next door after they moved from their farm. My aunt Gladys moved there later then moved to a new house across town.
Both of my mother's parents moved to the Windsor area from Oklahoma before they met. Grandpa moved here by himself, but grandma's whole family moved here. I'm not sure when either one actually came here, though. My grandmother's parents moved to a farm south of town in an area known as Fort Lyon (I think that is the correct spelling).
OH, where is this going?
The William G. Moore Family. From left to right, Maggie, William More, Gladys, their mother, Sara Ellen (my grandma), Lucy, Joe, and Eva.
William G. Moore (grandma's dad) was the son of Daniel and Nancy Moore who moved from Madison County, Kentucky to Guthrie, Oklahoma. I think all their children were born in Oklahoma and possibly moved here when the girls were all teenagers. All the daughters lived in the Windsor area but Uncle Joe didn't live here. He may have been old enough to have already left home by the time they moved here. Aunt Lucy was the only daughter that left the area and she and her husband lived in California. After Uncle George retired in the 1970's they moved back to Windsor. Aunt Maggie also may have moved to Kansas City when she married her second husband. I always remembered Aunt Maggie because when we had family reunions she always looked upset. The rest of the family were always smiling. Even in the above photo, with Aunt Maggie on the far left, she isn't smiling… Well, neither is Grandpa Moore. Aunt Gladys did an unexpected thing and married after many years of being a widow. That is a whole completely different story and I don't know the detais very well. It happened after I moved away.
The Tracy Family photo taken on February 26, 1928. The children's names are Theodore, Franklin, Lillie, Viola, Sumner, Minerva, Dewey, Vezy, Millie, Lula, and Velta. Those names are not in any order.
My grandpa, Dewey, is the second from the right in the back row. His name was Dewey Seabird Tracy and his father's name was Squire Simeon Tracy and his mother was Lydia Belle Ellison Tracy. They were originally from Indiana but moved to an area called Pleasant Valley in Oklahoma, somewhere near Guthrie. Grandpa's brother, Vezy, was named after his grandfather. One of his brothers invented some kind of plow but couldn't afford to get it patented. Next thing he knew, John Deere patented the same plow… At least, that's the story I heard.
Grandpa and his father with their 500-pound pig.
What is very strange is that Grandma's family was from Guthrie, Oklahoma, and her grandparents are buried there. Grandpa's mom and dad were also buried in Guthrie, Oklahoma. Even though they were from around the same area, they didn't know each other. I don't know how grandpa and grandpa met, but grandpa was living in the country close to a nearby town called Leeton and grandma was a telephone operator in Windsor. After I moved to the farm, I found a box full of letters in a cedar chest too and from each of them before they were married. Leeton isn't that far from Windsor and you would think by the time their letters got to each other… It's like they dated through the mail even though they didn't live that far away from each other. Well, things were a lot different back then.
Both my grandparents were avid gardeners and grandpa was very proud of the fruit of his labor. He entered vegetables and fruit at the Missouri State Fair and Calhoun Colt Show every year. If he grew something unusual or very large, he would get his photo in the newspaper which happened at least once a year. The above photo is grandpa and a couple of Guinea Beans. They were a type of gourd and when dried, he would cut the ends out of them and use them for Wren houses. There are more photos of him and his vegetables, but I have yet to find them.
Grandpa always saved his own seed but he also bought seed. He would send for catalogs and if there was something different or interesting he would try it. GEEZ! That sounds so familiar.
I remember the headline… It said something about grandma wasn't going to let grandpa outdo her. Now, that is some tall corn! Grandma was probably close to 6′ tall but grandpa… 4′ 11″. Besides gardening, canning, making quilts, and cooking, grandma also raised rabbits. Although she raised a lot of rabbits for the market, she had many breeds that were for show and won numerous blue ribbons at the Missouri State Fair. Oh, yeah, she also had Angora rabbits and sold the fur.
I spent a lot of time with grandpa and I considered him to be as saintly of a man as I ever met. Human, yes. When his feathers would get ruffled they laid back down fairly quick. He also knew that even at his age he never stopped learning. I remember being in the chicken yard with him one time and one hen did something to another that he never saw before. He looked rather bewildered and said, "I'll be jumped up. I never saw anything like that before." Well, I was much younger and many years have gone by and to this day I have never seen anything like that since. I think it was a once in a lifetime deal.
I never heard him swear. He had his own choice of words but he didn't use them when he became upset. To be honest, I don't remember him being upset. If something were hard to do or he was amazed or astonished, surprised or shocked… He would say words like "I'll be jumped up", by "jemminy", or "I'll be a cat's hair".
Then there was the old truck. The first pickup I remember was a late 1948-1952 Chevrolet. Then he bought an old Ford with a 1960 cab and a 1970-71 bed. It was pretty weird. Later he bought another pickup, maybe a 1976 Ford. He never used 2nd gear… We would go somewhere in the pickup and he would shift from first to third. Now you know that you need to be going a certain speed to shift from one gear to another. So when grandpa would shift, he was only going fast enough to go to second. The pickup would have its fits but eventually would go fast enough to straighten up. Grandpa would usually say something like, "what's the matter with you"? After I got my driver's license grandpa would let me drive and when I shifted into second, grandpa would be quick to tell me I didn't need to do that.
The scariest time was when we went past Knob Knoster to buy hay one winter and we had to cross the interstate… Traffic was coming so he stopped at the first stop sign. He took off in first and immediately put it into third. The truck was barely moving, jumping and backfiring, with traffic coming. I thought we were going to die right there. Then, since it was a divided highway, there was another stop sign which grandpa completely ignored. Well, somehow we survived but I think I drove back home. I don't remember, but I do remember crossing the interstate.
This was supposed to be a post about the yard. GEEZ!!! Well, the next post will be a tour of the yard and flower beds even though I have a few photos in the camera for another post.
This was so interesting to read!
Lots of interesting family stories there. Do you have relatives who would appreciate reading it? I like gathering the family photos and archives as our genealogist.
Well, it was a disaster when we moved in… The group that I sold it to did a lot of work on it and now it is the Thompson House Bed and Breakfast.
Jim, my sister, niece, and I are all interested in our family history. My niece is doing a family tree and we share information. On my dad's side of the family, the authority about family information would be a cousin, my dad's brother's son, who learned from his father. Someday soon I need to talk to him and write down everything. So much information can be lost very quickly… We have photo albums from both sides but most of the photos have no information on the back. Once the elders die, no one can recognize who are in the old photos. So, you are your families genealogist? I remember you posting about your DNA test. Thanks for the comment!

San Lucas como pintor, ante Cristo en la Cruz, también conocido como San Lucas pintando la crucifixión o Crucificado con San Lucas, es un cuadro de Francisco de Zurbarán expuesto en el Museo del Prado de Madrid, España. Está pintado al óleo sobre lienzo y mide 105 cm de alto por 84 cm de ancho. Probablemente el modelo para el evangelista es el mismo pintor.

El Cristo crucificado con San Lucas siempre ha sido considerado una de las imágenes más interesantes de Zurbarán ya que parece ser que el pintor se autorretrató en la figura del santo. Aunque San Lucas ejerció durante su vida la medicina en Siria, los pintores le consideran también su patrón ya que la leyenda le atribuye el retrato de la Virgen. Por lo tanto, Zurbarán ha elegido su efigie para representar a su santo patrón, con las paletas en la mano y la mirada hacia Dios. Junto a él está el Crucificado, que rompe con las normas iconográficas dictadas por Francisco Pacheco y seguidas fielmente en el Cristo de Velázquez ya que Zurbarán cruza los pies de Jesús, aunque coloca los cuatro clavos pero elimina el subpedáneo, otorgando así a la figura un mayor escorzo y movimiento. El artista continúa con los dictados del Naturalismo tenebrista y utiliza imágenes muy realistas hasta el punto de colocarse él mismo como San Lucas. Aunque existe cierta idealización en la figura de Cristo es sorprendente cómo se le marcan las costillas y la caja torácica para otorgar mayor veracidad a la escena. La fuerte luz procedente de la izquierda crea pronunciados contrastes entre zonas de luz y sombra, como tanto le gustaba también a Caravaggio. Por último, los tonos oscuros y la delicadeza de los pliegues son características específicas de toda la obra de Zurbarán.

The Xbox team doesn't talk in too much detail about the innards of devices and we suspect that things are still a long way from final for Project Scorpio.
The focus has been the confirmed six teraflops of GPU power, mentioned a number of times on stage at E3 2016, along with the "most powerful console" positioning.
The main crux of Project Scorpio is delivering uncompromised 4K gaming. That's a different position to the already available Xbox One S, which supports 4K Ultra HD sources like Netflix and Amazon Instant Video, and Ultra HD Blu-ray, but cannot play games in 4K. Although it does support HDR (high dynamic range).
In the announcement of Project Scorpio, there was also a fair amount of talk of VR. With Bethesda already showing off plans for Fallout in VR – which we've had a chance to demo – another aim of Project Scorpio is to deliver high-fidelity VR gaming.
Where the official announcement ends, the rumours continue, with sources talking to Kotaku saying that Scorpio will be "technically capable of supporting Oculus." Partnering with an established name in VR (at least as established as you can get in a brand new sector) would be something of a coup for Xbox, bringing that hardware to the console and reducing the need for a PC. However, there's nothing official to suggest this has happened.
It's perhaps exciting to be able to put a date on a future release. Project Scorpio is slated for a December 2017 launch, right in time for "the holiday season".
Of course, there's no price yet, and with almost a year of development, we're sure there's going to be a lot more to learn about the future of Xbox.
We fully expect Microsoft's E3 2017 press event to be headlined by Project Scorpio.

Q: Listbox is not getting a vertical scrollbar The main issue people seem to have with the vertical scrollbar not appearing is because they use a stackpanel. I went through my complete visual tree and my listbox is not in a stackpanel anywhere.
Here is the XAML that I use:
<Grid>
    <Grid.Resources>
        <local:ReportToListItem x:Key="reportToListItem" />
    </Grid.Resources>
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition Height="*" />
        <RowDefinition Height="3" />
        <RowDefinition Height="*" />
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>
    <ListBox Background="PaleGoldenrod" x:Name="Controller_Domain_Reports_OpenReports">
        <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
            <DataTemplate>
                <ContentControl cal:View.Model="{Binding Converter={StaticResource reportToListItem}}"/>
            </DataTemplate>
        </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
    </ListBox>
    <Border Grid.Row="1" Background="Black" Height="3" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" />
    <ListBox Background="Magenta" Grid.Row="2" x:Name="Controller_Domain_Reports_ClosedReports">
        <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
            <DataTemplate>
                <ContentControl cal:View.Model="{Binding Converter={StaticResource reportToListItem}}"/>
            </DataTemplate>
        </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
    </ListBox>
</Grid>

Neither listbox gets a scrollbar if it extends beyond the height of the window for me. What am I overlooking?

A: Just putting this up to close this off properly:
Do'h.. The shellview had a nice copy pasted list of rowdefinitions all set to auto. Changed the one that contains this view to * and now it works as expected.

Q: Why click() method does not trigger behaviour while actual clicking does? I'm trying to programmatically click the "listen" button on a Google Translate page (https://translate.google.com/#en/es/javascript)
For some reason this code does not produce a sound:
document.getElementById('gt-src-listen').click()

while actual clicking on the button does.
Why these two are not identical and how can I programmatically emulate a click in this case?

A: If you are using vanilla javascript I think the event you are trying to use is onclick, You can see the difference between the both of them in this SO answer What's the difference between "click" and "onclick" when creating an element with jQuery?

AFP: Probability of North Korea missile hitting PH is 'remote'
By Regine Cabato, CNN Philippines
Published Aug 14, 2017 4:27:00 PM
Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, August 14) — While the probability of a missile from North Korea hitting the Philippines is "remote," the military is on alert for any development, Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) spokesperson Brigadier General Restituto Padilla said on Monday.
"Dadaan siya sa [The missile will pass through the] southern part [of] Japan, but not in any part of the Philippines. But... the probability of it not going straight — may end up having the missile land somewhere else," Padilla told CNN Philippines' The Source.
"Those are the kinds of probabilities that we are preparing for. We see this as remote, but just the same, preparation is very important," he added.
This comes after North Korea threatened to strike with ballistic missiles areas around the United States territory of Guam, which is almost 2,500 kilometers east of the Philippines. U.S. President Donald Trump warned that the western power would respond with "fire and fury."

Padilla added that a midair explosion may send debris to Philippine territory.

"Kapag yan ay sumabog sa parte ng Southern Japan, at ang hangin ay medyo, papunta sa atin, maaaring yung debris bumagsak sa may northern part ng archipelago — Batanes, coastal town ng northern Apari, Aurora, yung mga lugar na yun," said Padilla.
[Translation: If the missile explodes near Southern Japan, and the wind is moving towards the Philippines, debris can land in the northern part of the archipelago Batanes, the northern coastal town Apari, Aurora, those places.]
Padilla said they were treating the situation as a civil defense case.
"So the Office of Civil Defense has adequate preparations laid out in paper with the Armed Forces as a participant," said Padilla.
"On our part, we continue to monitor [the situation] closely together with all other allies... including South Korea, U.S., [and] Japan itself, who will provide information immediately after the detection of a launch," he added.
On August 5, the foreign ministers of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) condemned Pyongyang's nuclear and missile testing activities through a joint statement.
U.S. and Japan asked ASEAN to take a stronger stance against North Korea, with U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson even suggesting to cut the rogue state off completely during the ASEAN Regional Forum.
North Korea, however, pointed a finger at the U.S. and claimed its missile testing was legitimate military defense.

The United Nations Security Council also slapped sanctions targeting exports like coal, iron, lead, and seafood against the reclusive state.
Evacuation plan for Filipinos in danger
Padilla said in the event of an attack, the military would deploy its assets as well as tap chartered ships to ferry Filipinos to safety.
According to the Central Intelligence Agency, there is a population of about 42,000 Filipinos in Guam. Meanwhile, there are 242,000 Filipinos in Japan and 58,000 Filipinos in South Korea according to figures from the Japan Justice Ministry and Department of Foreign Affairs respectively.
"We can deploy our ships from the Navy. We have two big ships already — two SSVs (strategic sealift vessels), we have five C-130 [planes], and three other medium-lift types of aircraft... These can all be deployed in addition to the charter service of bigger ships," said Padilla.
The three medium-lift aircrafts can carry 70 passengers each, while a C-130 plane can carry 150. The ships can accommodate 500 to 700 people each, bringing the total passenger capacity of military vessels to roughly 2,360.
Padilla added that evacuating through these vessels will also be "a personal choice," noting that some Filipinos may also have families abroad.


I have a best friend. On here I call her Muffin.
Muffin has a history with illness; a much more storied, dangerous, and exacting one than mine. Our friendship began when our bodies were strong and our spirits unstoppable. We're so thankful now that we were reckless, and lived dangerously and fully back then. Now we're so careful, so precise, and so used to premeditating physical complications and energy black holes. This recipe is from her, and for her.
I can be accidentally romantic.
I haven't been single on Valentines day in over 10 years (Big Sis said, "cry me a river").
I am reluctantly thankful for cake pops.
Valentines Day is not a huge marker in my book. For the majority of those 10+ years Ruark and I went in and out with celebrating depending, honestly, if we felt like it or not. We had started dating when we were so young, and found plenty of moments to show each other how we felt. And in general I'm not a big fan of commercially-fueled tokens. Two years ago the man I was with was away for work and had his friend stop by with a huge bouquet at the theatre I was working at. Last year new boyfriend and I had no plans until mid-morning, when he called where I was out of town working and sweetly said, "I'm thinking it's Valentines Day and you're my Valentine, so we should be together tonight". I trained it back to NYC.
So this year, being single, I've been more contemplative about the love in my life in general. Not at all mournful, just reflective. I have so much love, so many people I'm surrounded by who have full, generous hearts, that I feel more in love than ever.
Oh, the 3rd point up there? A few months ago I had to develop a gluten-free recipe for Valentine Cake Pops for Easy Eats. Two weeks ago I made 75 chocolate chip and lemon zest cake pops in the shape of Winnie the Pooh honey pots for a baby shower. They were cute, but not as adorable as I'd wanted them to be for the mom-to-be. And they took me eight hours! Lastly, for the first Milk Bar Mondays swap last week I made Carrot Cake Truffles, which are essentially cake balls (and one of my favorite super-sweet recipes).
In the beginning of this road with cake pops, I was often cursing, whining, or whinging. But the result of all the frustration?
Moments of joy this morning as I deftly baked, blended, dipped, flipped and formed these truffles. I had some cake I'd been experimenting with (a new flour blend), some leftover liquid cheesecake, some bags of chocolate and lots of fun things to toss truffles in. I found myself smiling in the silence of my kitchen, thinking about those I'd be wrapping and gifting these for. They look so cute all ribboned up. And, they were actually pretty easy. I enjoyed making them.
While made of cake, these truffles taste a bit more ganache-y because of how dark, rich and buttery they are. I tossed them in ground walnuts, dark cocoa powder, raw cacao nibs, and some candy hearts I had leftover from the Easy Eats recipe. It was a very romantic morning in my kitchen. I was in love with the natural light pouring through my windows and my ancient camera that was snapping away.
I hope you have a lovely Valentines Day, Bloggerreaders. But more than that, I wish you much peace, love and sweet, sweet life… always.
In a small pot on medium heat, melt butter. Whisk in cocoa until smooth. Turn off heat and allow to cool slightly while you continue.
In the bowl of a standing mixer with the whisk attachment or with a hand mixer, beat eggs on high until creamy, about 45 seconds. Add the sugars and beat until thoroughly incorporated with no traces of sugar, 2-3 minutes.
With the mixer on low, slowly stream in butter/chocolate mixture. Beat until incorporated.
Slowly add flour and salt. Mix on low until incorporated. Stir in walnuts.
Pour into pan and bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out relatively clean.
Immediately turn out onto a baking sheet and break up into pieces. Allow to cool completely.
When cool, return to standing mixer with the paddle attachment. Paddle on medium/low until completely broken up. Add liquid cheesecake or frosting 1 Tbsp at a time, until the cake comes together and you can easily roll a piece into a firm ball without it falling apart.
Roll batter in quarter-sized balls, placing on cookie sheets lined with wax paper. My batch made 30.
Place all toppings in bowls (shallower and wider the better). Melt chocolate in the microwave, first for 1 minute, then stirring to melt completely, then for another 30 seconds if the chocolate isn't smooth enough (it should be fluid but only warm to the touch).
Quickly use your fingers to lightly coat each ball in chocolate, then toss into topping bowls, up to three in each bowl. Shake / lightly toss the truffles to coat completely, then return to wax paper-lined trays. Repeat with remaining truffles until done.
Refrigerate at least 10 minutes before packaging.
I had one of those mornings that tougher NYCers would laugh at but that's left me with a scrunched up feeling in my heart.
I awoke once again just feeling off. Not full-blown sick, but really out of whack. I muscled to the living room to do a low-key Qi Gong DVD, which definitely had me slowing down, centering, focusing, and returning to somewhat a manageable plane of energy. I was feeling calmer, at least, and ready to tackle my morning.
Then the parking situation came.
In my neighborhood we have alternate side-street parking where you can't park for 90 minute blocks certain days of the week so they can be cleaned. It's a fun little matrix I now know well. It's not rocket science (shout out to my friend Tim who is actually a rocket scientist), but takes some planning and moving your car quickly when the cleaning's done on a street, so that you have a place before your time expires.
So at 10:05 I, feeling very grounded and quiet, took Mitra for a walk around the corner, stopping to tousle with her friends Scrabble and Checkers, before jumping in the car and pulling to a street a few blocks away. There, a few cars were doubled-parked on the narrow one-way street. Double parked! It normally isn't an issue, though, because they come and move their cars when the time changes. So… you guessed it… 10:20 rolls around, usually when people are slipping in to park and waiting in their cars until go time (like yours truly and 3 other cars), and the squatters are no where to be seen. 10:30, nothing. Two of the other cars want to park and leave, which is now creating a pileup of passing cars, including a school bus that can't get through. 10:35, still those cars and now the legally parked people are waiting, having pulled onto the curb so people can pass. By 10:38, I've dealt with plenty of yelling and honking people who are not happy.
So when the drivers finally come out, they're met with grumpy people including me, who gives a lady an exasperated scrunch of the shoulders. She fires immediately, "oh, I'm 3 minutes late, kill me!" to which I respond, "actually you're 8 minutes late and have pissed off about 20 people" to which she responds as she walks to her car "ooh, 8 whole minutes, doesn't something ever come up for you? Welcome to New York baby, it happens" to which I go "I've been here ten years, no welcome necessary, it not an excuse to those 20 people backed up for you" to which she closes "I'll tell my sick mother you said that".
I park my car and get out to start walking before she can follow in my direction.
To most NYers, no big deal, right? Neither of us were obscene, and while she was yelling at my open window and looking very pissed off it was kept at that. It was inconvenient, and even if only for 8 minutes, those two people were basically stating that their time was more valued than others. But still, why did I have to engage? I usually assume that people are just having a bad day, or that something came up, and it's only 8 minutes anyway. What if her mother is really sick and she was dealing with something important? What if she's having a really low day and I made it lower?
I walked back into my building assessing my actions, not so much concerned at the severity of the situation – in reality it's not that big a deal – but because I don't want to present myself that way to the world. I don't want to be a city-dweller who is insensitive to the fact that there are real people everywhere around me. I want to act respectfully first and assertively second.
Maybe I'll go leave a note on her car. Just in case she actually cares.
So back inside, I make some coffee and start to work on this dish. A purple-ribboned aubergine called out to me at the market. I don't normally eat eggplant (they're a deadly nightshade vegetable and so not good for people with arthritic conditions) but in these cold winter NYC months I need smooth veggies, and lots of garlic, and my apartment smelling like cooking food and love.
To serve, I tried two ways. First, by slicing a sweet long pepper and filling each half with half of the mixture. And just because I wanted to see how it would taste as a munchie appetizer, I piped half into Tostito Scoops and topped with a bit of the chopped pepper. I'm not a huge chip / snack fan, but had some leftover corn chips from our Superbowl gathering (um, yeah Giants!). And when I do eat chips, they're corn chips.
This plate? Yeah, gone by the time I got to typing this sentence.
The spread is both incredibly savory with a huge waft of garlic, but also sweet in the aubergine and the roasted flavor that comes from cooking the garlic in this way. It's warm and filling without being heavy. And so full of flavor for such a small list of ingredients. I'm not a huge "party snack" fan, but this is definitely high on the list now. And I now have the rest of the head saved for something else (why do I not roast garlic more?!).
And with that, I'm going to get to some real work today. Cooking helps when mornings are cranky, and I'm fortunate to have set up my work lifestyle in such a way that I can go to the kitchen for an hour when I most need it.
Place sliced aubergine on a cooking sheet and rub with about 1 Tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper. Eggplants/aubergine absorb a lot of oil quickly, so don't expect it to be coated like most vegetables.
Place about 1 Tbsp olive oil in a small ramekin. Cut off the bottom / root part of the garlic bulb and place cut side down in ramekin, then place on cooking sheet.
Roast for about 30 minutes, flipping the aubergine halfway. After 30 minutes, check to see if garlic is roasted by gently lifting slightly and pushing down on a clove: if it falls out easily, it's done. If not, cook entire tray another 8 minutes or so.
Place entire aubergine in a food processor or blender. Pinch out the garlic, and add a few cloves to start (I added 5 and eventually worked my way up to 8 large cloves). Add chickpea and about 2 Tbsp olive oil. Start to process mixture, scraping down sides as necessary and swirling in my oil to moisten as needed. Taste, then add salt and more garlic to your level of taste. Puree until completely smooth.


Ballistic stretching is a form of stretching that uses bounce and muscle explosion to force a stretch through a range of movement or a fixed position. Because ballistic stretching pushes the body beyond its comfort zone it should never be tried without an adequate warm-up. The Liber8 workout is a ballistic stretching routine that allows you to push against the current boundaries of your flexibility and begin to make some gains. Liberate your body.

US Military Preparing for Alien Invasion
16 Apr 2012 | Posted by Member 26835147
IT'S OFFICIAL: A member of the U.S. Air Command with special clearance of White House, spoke earlier this Sunday, during an interview apparently aired only by Australian MSM, about the official plans of the U.S. military to fight a hostile alien invasion. Take in mind that TPTB are building a mega radio-telescope in Australia and New Zealand, for detecting an alien invasion and also the U.S. Army is deploying thousands of Marines in Australia, what strongly suggests that a major false-flag event will take place in the land of down under.
