Powell meets with McCain and Obama
Powell recently sat down with both presidential candidates.
(CNN) - Former Secretary of State Colin Powell, who remains a popular figure among Democrats and Republicans, recently sat down with both presidential candidates, CNN has confirmed.
The Hotline first reported the meeting earlier Tuesday.
According to an associate of Powell, the former Bush administration member and onetime chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff had "pleasant, private conversations" recently with both Sens. Barack Obama and John McCain. An Obama campaign source confirms the Illinois senator recently met with Powell. McCain's campaign has not returned a request for comment.
Watch: Powell says he's undecided
Powell has long praised Obama's candidacy and he told reporters recently in Vancouver he "would listen carefully to what both [candidates] have to say" before deciding whom to support.

I have the utmost respect for Colin Powell, he saw the truth in how egotistical and inane Bush was and left his post. It would be one powerful ticket if Powell was V.P.....With his military experience and both their level heads America once again would prosper and heal from the last eight years of total havoc that Bush has put our country in

If Obama runs as the VP of Powell I might reconsider voting for him. Otherwise my vote is still for Ron Paul. Change you can TRUST in!
Stacey, California
I like McCain, but i don't think he has a chance of winning Powell as his VP. Listen, Powell jumped off the Bush wagon,so i don't think he's waiting for the McBush one. I'm almost convinced he would strongly consider VP'in for Obama if asked.
Powell who?
William Lynch
I don't understand the facination with Colin Powell. He thought that the Iraq war was a bad idea, but he didn't have the integrity to resign. That is disappointing. Other people can claim that they were hoodwinked into supporting the war. Powell had the facts, but he lacked the courage to stand up to Bush and Rumsfeld.

powell's wife would not let him run for pres... why would she let him be vp where one day he might have to step into the top job? still it would be a great ticket. powell is greatly respested in this country, in the world, even though he made that awful presentation for the bushies at the UN a few years ago so bush and cheney could go to war in iraq.

I have a lot of respect for Gen Colin Powell, but I really wish he had resigned when he figured out he was being used. He warned them, his testimony in the 9/11 Commission report was very telling, but the media never picked up on it because they didn't want to. I wouldn't mind seeing him in an Obama adminstration.
SlovioPHL
That sounds like a nice ticket, Obama/Powell, but does anyone remember him defending those images of WMAs in Iraq? I know...he had no choice but to support Bush...and he was eventually betrayed by the administration, but in no way would he bring any "change" to this place we all know and love, just a lot of baggage that will cause more distractions.
Colin Powell was a great man until he went down the wrong path supporting the disasterous invasion of Iraq. He knew it would be a disaster. He'd been in combat, unlike the Bush chickenhawks, and he correctly advised Bush senior not to go to Bagdad in the Gulf War.
He was the one person who could have stood up to Bush and told the American people the truth. He had the clout and the credentials to stop this war before it began, but he drank the coolaid and promoted this blood-fest. To run with Colin Powell would be to run with a war criminal in my opinion, and it would I will not vote for a war criminal.
Oakland for Obama
Are you kidding me, if Powel becomes VP, this country will turn around 180 degree. I love to see 2 great people leading this country, they both are smart, and ready to change the country around.
Some White Dude
Nicely said Foreign observer. America is now starting to realize that black people are just like everyone else. But these are two extrodinary men who had to work very hard and swallow a lot of pride to get to where they are. The one thing they both have going for them is the fact they've based their careers on doing a good job. I feel bad for what Bush did to Powell. But he still is a tested war hero, from private to general, a world diplomat, and a successful military strategist. Obama taught constitutional law and was a community organizer. Bush was head cheerleader in high school and destroyed three oil companies. And America still voted for him. I'm looking for someone who will do a good job for this country. I don't care if he's purple.
Calvin King
Selecting Powell as Obama VP would definitely sum up Obama patriotism...

1950s Famous Faces Movies acting Behind The Scenes films Paris
Brilliant Behind the Scenes Photos of A Bout de Souffle (Breathless)
"We barged into the cinema like cavemen into the Versailles of Louis XV" - Jean-Luc Godard
Jean-Luc Godard once said that the success of A Bout de Souffle (usually known as Breathless outside France), was a mistake, saying, "there used to be just one way. There was one way you could do things. There were people who protected it like a copyright, a secret cult only for the initiated. That's why I don't regret making Breathless and blowing that all apart." In 1964, five years after the release of his influential film, Godard described his and his colleagues' impact at the time: "We barged into the cinema like cavemen into the Versailles of Louis XV."
poster for A Bout de Souffle directed by Jean-Luc Godard
The film was partly based on a true story. In 1952 the French tabloids France-Soir and Détective published a scandalous tale about Michel Portail – a young Frenchman who while in America had been imprisoned for armed robbery and subsequently expelled back to France. After spending the summer on the Cote d'Azur with his American girlfriend Beverly Lumet he stole a car to drive to Le Havre to visit his ailing mother. On the way he shot dead a motorcycle policeman but was eventually turned in to the police by Lumet.
After reading about the story François Truffaut, with Claude Chabrol, wrote an original treatment, but due to disagreements between the two men the project failed to get off the ground. Godard, however, liked the idea and wanted to make the film and with the help of Truffaut and Chabrol, who had recently both become star directors, managed to secure financing for the film. In the end Truffaut was credited as the original writer with Chabrol as the technical adviser although both their input was minimal.
Godard mostly wrote the script as he went along. He told Truffaut before the filming began, "Roughly speaking, the subject will be the story of a boy who thinks of death and of a girl who doesn't."
Although Jean-Paul Belmondo had appeared in a few movies before A Bout de Souffle, he wasn't particularly well-known, and not at all outside France. So to help the film's commercial appeal Godard looked for a famous female lead willing to work in his very low-budget film. Godard was acquainted with Francois Moreuil, who was married to Jean Seberg and she agreed to appear in the film for $15,000, close to peanuts for her at the time but one-sixth of Godard's budget.
Godard saw his movie as almost a documentary, and asked cinematographer Raoul Coutard to shoot the entire film on a hand-held camera, with almost no extra lighting. To shoot with such low light levels, Coutard used Ilford HPS film, although not available as motion picture film stock. To get around this they took 18-metre lengths of HPS film sold for 35mm still cameras and spliced them together to make a 120-metre roll. The film was also pushed from 400 ASA to 800 ASA.
Filming began on August 17, 1959. Godard met his crew at the Café Notre Dame near the Hôtel de Suède and shot for two hours until he ran out of ideas.[6] Coutard has stated that the film was virtually improvised on the spot, with Godard writing lines of dialogue in an exercise book that no one else was allowed to look at. Godard would give the lines to Belmondo and Seberg while having a few brief rehearsals on scenes involved, then filming them. Coutard used an Eclair Cameflex camera (the only camera that was able to use the still film sprocket holes) but it was noisy and incapable of synchronising the sound and almost the entire film had to be dubbed in post-production.
Godard shot most of the film chronologically, with the exception of the first sequence, which was shot towards the end of the shoot.
In his biography of Godard, Richard Brody wrote in 2008, "The seminal importance of the film was recognized immediately. In January 1960 — prior to the film's release — Godard won the Jean Vigo Prize, awarded 'to encourage an auteur of the future'… When Breathless opened in Paris…not in an art house but at a chain of four commercial theaters, selling 259,046 tickets in four weeks. The eventual profit was substantial, rumored to be fifty times the investment.
Roger Ebert included the film in his "Great Movies" list in 2003, writing that, "No debut film since Citizen Kane in 1942 has been as influential".
The French photographer Raymond Cauchetier (born January 10, 1920) is known for his work as the set photographer from 1959 to 1968 on many of the seminal films of the French New Wave. His photographs are an important record of the New Wave directors at the beginning of their careers, and of their unconventional and groundbreaking production methods. A 2009 profile of Cauchetier in Aperture magazine declared that his photographs "are themselves central works of the New Wave."

The Pacific Wrestling Federation (PWF)  is a professional wrestling world title in Japanese promotion All Japan Pro Wrestling, contested exclusively among junior heavyweight (<) wrestlers. It was created on July 31, 1986, when Hiro Saito defeated Brad Armstrong in a tournament final.

The original World Junior Heavyweight Championship belt had a similar design to the title it replaced, the NWA International Junior Heavyweight Championship, which had been around since 1982 and only replacing the word "International" with "World". This belt was replaced with a new belt on August 27, 2017. On June 3, 2019, then-champion Atsushi Aoki died from a motorcycle accident and the belt was retired and given to Aoki's family. A new belt with a new design debuted on January 3, 2020. There have been a total of 40 recognized champions who have had a combined 63 official reigns and six vacancies. The title is currently held by Naruki Doi who is in his first reign.

Are you in a season of change? Looking to re-purpose your dreams? Antsy to adapt, grow, and build character where it counts? Perhaps this is your chrysalis season.
Let's first take a stroll back through the life cycle of a butterfly to get a glimpse of what a chrysalis is. This stage of a butterfly's existence is one of the most fascinating. Anyone whose ever read The Very Hungry Caterpillar knows it all starts with a tiny egg lying on a leaf. Out pops a caterpillar who is indeed very hungry. He eats and eats and eats until he is full grown. Then, he attaches himself onto a leaf or stem and transforms himself into a chrysalis.
It may appear that this caterpillar is vegging out in there doing nothing. However, the result of this period of metamorphosis reveals he was definitively not doing nothing. When he emerges again, this caterpillar's caterpillar parts have transformed into exquisite butterfly parts. The result of this radical change- a living, painted, flying piece of art.
Come face to face with yourself and realized you aren't happy with what you see.
Whatever your situation, you may be at a point that you realize that you have to adapt or you will never heal; you have to pursue something new or your life feels stagnant; you have to keep moving toward something, or you feel you'll sink into oblivion; you have to change to be who and where you want to be.
He brainstormed where he wants to be in life and what he needs to do to get there. He used the failure to motivate and spur him forward toward his dreams.
This last year for many reasons plunged me into a tumbleweed of trials. None of them were of my own direct instigation, but all of them significantly affected me. I feel like I've gone into a chrysalis. I'm seeking with all I am to learn, to see what I need to do to emerge from all this with even stronger character, to find what it takes to grieve so well that no bitterness or resentment can remain, to build muscle and grit and voice for the future, to seek clarity for re-purposing the dreams I've had that seemed to have died, to lean in hard to the Father and Friend who alone can make all of this a positive transformation.
I feel like I've necessarily pulled inward. I've sought wise counsel. I've read somewhere around 50 books since May. I've leaned heavily on the Lord and on those wise and loving people in my life who care enough to call/text/email me again and again, because they know I need it. I feel strongly that I'm in a chrysalis season. And I can wait. I can wait to see how the Lord has designed for me to emerge.
Big change doesn't often happen all at once. One book is only a drop in the bucket for the change I've seen since May in me. But it starts with one. Position changes start with one Google search for open positions, one question posed to the right person, one resume submitted. Healing hurt starts with one good cry and opening yourself to give or receive one loving gesture. One foot forward brings motion to the second, and before you know it, your steps are bleeding into one another, growing, building, changing you and your future.
Sometimes little changes are like my husband choosing to shave off his facial hair, which he's had for many years now. His facial recognition on his phone doesn't recognize him now :), but it's a small change that is one step toward something different. For you it might look like changing that picture on the wall, removing that article of clothing from your wardrobe that reminds you of something painful, or just setting a date for coffee with that one friend who loves you enough to listen well.
Something needs to change- what is it? You need to change. The purpose is not to change for change sake, but to understand why changes need to be made.
I believe strongly that there is something to learn, some sin to purge, some way to improve through every trial and every situation I face. It takes seeking the Lord to know what that is.
True, lasting change occurs as a result of the Holy Spirit's work in our lives. They Holy Spirit convicts us of sin and shows us ways to develop Christ-likeness. He also gives us the power and builds in us the character we need to move from where we are to where we need to be. As we seek God, he can give us a vision for where He would like us to be as well as the power and life circumstances we need to get there.
As you seek God for what He has dreamed for you, think back to what you used to dream about when you were young. What did you imagine you were through play? Were you an explorer out to discover plants and animals no one knew existed? Were you a prince out to slay a dragon? An orphan out to rescue the other orphans from an evil tyrant? Of those things, what truly reflects your heart- what activities get you all stoked up and put that glimmer back in your eye?
As you delight yourself in God, knowing and celebrating Him, He aligns your desires with His for your life. If you are seeking and loving God with your life, and you have a strong desire to do something or interest and enjoyment in something, pay attention! That is likely a God-given desire that God has a plan to bring to fruition in your life.
Dare to let yourself dream. Where do your childhood fantasies intersect with your adult ideals? Let your imagination go! If you could be anything, what would it be?
What would you be doing? For whom? For what purpose?
What would a day in your life look like?
What music would reflect the tenor of your life?
In all, what do you feel God really made you for?
Go ahead and take out a fresh sheet of paper and draw a picture of it or write a description of what it might look like for you.
There really is and always ever will be only one you. One you that God designed. One life for you to embrace with your whole self. One life to be enjoyed day by day.
Let God help you build it step by step. Dare to dream. Maybe this could be your chrysalis season, too.
If you've been through a chrysalis season in your life, or if you are in one now, please share in the comments below. Your story might just be the blessing the give another the courage to embrace transformation in their own life.
This blog is designed to help you delight in the one life you have with your whole self. It is designed to challenge us not to just watch life pass us by, but to dive into it and dare to actually live it- and to live it well. I pray it does just that.
February 5, 2019 February 4, 2019 Sip Life Slowly and Enjoy ItChrysalis, Encouragement, How can I change?, Metamorphasis, Pursuing dreams, Transformation, What is my purpose in life?
WOW! This post hit me right between the eyes! I do need to make a serious change and the reality of it was made very clear this morning, and then I get your post and it gives me hope that with God's help, I can do it. God bless you deeply and richly!

Hope for millions with fibromyalgia as new gut bacteria test could diagnose condition faster
By admin On August 3, 2019 August 3, 2019 In English Leave a comment
LADY GAGA, Kirsty Young and Morgan Freeman might have it, but there's been little hope for fibromyalgia sufferers until now.
The crippling condition affects up to 4 per cent of the population and has no known cure.
But a new study might, at least, have found one of the causes of it.
Scientists have found that fibromyalgia sufferers had too many or too few species of gut bacteria, compared to other people.
And that finding could be crucial to helping people get quicker diagnoses.
They looked at the gut bacteria of 156 people living in Montreal, Canada – 77 of whom had fibromyalgia.
They were all interviewed before giving poo, blood, saliva and urine samples, which were all them compared to those of the people without the condition.
Gut bacteria changes with the condition
They found that people with fibromyalgia had dramatically different gut bacteria makeup to those who didn't have it.
The team from McGill University Health Centre used artificial intelligence to confirm that the bacteria changes noticed weren't caused by diet, medication, exercise or age.
Using their computer, they were able to diagnose people with the condition simply by looking at their gut microbiome – with nearly 90 per cent accuracy.
More pain = more bacteria changes
"We found that fibromyalgia and the symptoms of fibromyalgia – pain, fatigue, and cognitive difficulties – contribute more than any of the other factors to the variations we see in the microbiomes of those with the disease," lead author of the study, Amir Minerbi, said.
"We also saw that the severity of a patient's symptoms was directly correlated with an increased presence or a more pronounced absence of certain bacteria – something which has never been reported before."
At the moment, scientists still don't understand why people with fibromyalgia would have a different gut bacteria balance.
Because the condition is a cluster of symptoms rather than one issue, the next stage of research will involve investigating whether similar changes to gut bacteria are present in other conditions that revolve around chronic pain.
Does the gut bacteria balance cause pain? And if does have an impact on pain, does that mean a cure may be on the horizon?
At the moment, fibromyalgia patients can wait up to five years for a diagnosis.
AI diagnosis is 87% accurate
But that could be about to change.
Emmanuel Gonzalez, from the McGill team, said that their computer was able to make a diagnosis of fibromyalgia based only on the composition of the gut microbiome.
It had an 87 per cent accuracy.
"As we build on this first discovery with more research, we hope to improve upon this accuracy, potentially creating a step-change in diagnosis," he said.
The scientists' next steps will be to see if they get similar results in another group of participants.
The findings come after a study published back in March found that the condition might soon be detected via a simple blood test.
At the time, study co-author Luis Rodriguez-Saona, called the initial results " remarkable".
They found that there were clear patterns in the blood of patients with fibromyalgia that made them distinct from those with the other disorders.

I predict Haruki Murakami's new memoir What I Talk About When I Talk About Running will be my demographic's Tuesdays With Morrie.
Why? Because Murakami has been on the edge of saturation for a decade. Because runners will read it. Because everyone loves Japan. Because pragmatic optimism is the new new.
My copy has already been shipped. I can't remember the last time I was this excited to read a book.

Did you know that you can make glow-in-the-dark chalk?
It is a fun nighttime activity that will light up the night and really amaze your kids. And best of all, it is easy to do.
Make creations that glow in the dark by making your own glowing chalk. Mix up a batch of homemade glow chalk using a highlighter, glow paint, or even glow powder. Or grab a box of Crayola Glow Chalk for a glowing project to stir together.
Look below for several methods of making glowing chalk as well as a review of Crayola Glow Chalk kits.
Check out how the chalk stands out in the dark.
Homemade glowing chalk is not difficult to make and it is really fun to create chalk masterpieces that stand out in the dark and light up the night.
HOWEVER, the results will vary depending on which method you use. Sometimes the chalk just doesn't glow right. This is mainly because it is difficult for the chalk to absorb the glow and sometimes the glow source just isn't very bright. Even the Crayola Glow Chalk produces mixed results.
But it is definitely a project that is still worth trying, especially if you have a black light. Using a black light will make even regular chalk seem bright in the dark.
There are three different glowing materials you can use to create glowing chalk: highlighters, glow paint, and glow powder. (Glow sticks don't work very well with chalk).
You may need a black light to activate the glow. Even if you don't, the black light will enhance the glowing effect. Keep in mind that even if you don't need a black light, the chalk may need to charge in light to glow in the dark.
Plan on spending a couple of days making the chalk because it will work better if you let it soak for a few days in the glow water.
Try all of the glow chalk methods and experiment to see which method works best for you.
The chalk almost seems to sparkle.
This is probably the easiest way to make homemade glowing chalk. It is also pretty reliable. The chalk glows pretty well with a black light.
First cut open a highlighter. The type that has liquid usually glows brighter than the types that just have felt.
Empty the highlighter liquid into a container or drop in the felt (you may want to use a disposable container in case it stains).
Add about a cup of water and let it soak.
At this point you may want to check to make sure the highlighter will actually glow in the dark or is black light reactive. Not all highlighters will glow. Some colors glow better than others as well. Green, orange, and dark yellows typically glow the best.
Drop a large piece or several small pieces of chalk into the water.
Let the chalk soak in the glow water for 2-3 days so the chalk will absorb the glowing water.
Stir the water mix a few times a day to keep the highlighter liquid from settling to the bottom.
Remove the chalk from the mixture.
Choose a spot to use the chalk. It may be messy and even stain some surfaces and fabrics, so be careful with the chalk and the mixture.
Flip on the black light and start your glowing creation!
Chalk soaking in glowing water mixtures.
You can also make glowing chalk with glow paint. This method produces varied results, but when it does work, it glows really well.
Squirt about 2 tablespoons of glowing paint into a container. The paint may stain the container, so choose a container that is disposable or can be messed up.
Add in about a cup or two of water and stir it thoroughly.
Add the chalk into the mixture.
Let the chalk soak in the water for a couple of days to absorb the glow paint.
Be sure to stir the mixture periodically to keep the paint from settling to the bottom.
With this method, the chalk will glow better when it has time to dry. So give it a couple of hours to dry before using it.
Use the chalk on the sidewalk or somewhere that won't be damaged if it stains.
The chalk glows really well when the paint actually attaches to the chalk. If you are using the chalk somewhere that won't be damaged by paint, you can put the paint directly onto the chalk.
Squirt some of the glow paint into a paper plate. Roll the chalk around in the paint until it is coated. Allow the paint to dry and harden on the chalk. Then flip on the black light and draw with the chalk. Just make sure you use it somewhere safe. The chalk may leave stains because of the glow paint.
Using glow powder to create glowing chalk produces good results as long as the powder itself glows well. There are a couple of different ways to make glowing chalk with glow powder.
Add a spoonful or two of glow pigment to a container. It may stain, so use a container that it won't hurt.
Mix in a cupful of water and stir until the powder is thoroughly mixed.
Drop a few pieces of chalk into the water.
Let the chalk soak in the mixture for a couple of days.
Take the chalk out of the mix when you are ready to use it.
Flip on the black light and start using the chalk. Make sure you check to see if the chalk will stain before using it somewhere that could be damaged.
You can also make homemade chalk and add in glow powder. This is the closest method to the way Crayola glowing chalk is made.
Find something to use as a mold. This can be a small Daisy cup or sand toys or any type of container. Depending on how much you make, you may need more than one mold.
You will need Plaster of Paris. Mix 1 cup of the plaster with 3/4 cup of water.
Mix in 1-2 tablespoons of the glow pigment. You can also add in a spoonful of powdered tempera paint if you want the chalk to be colored.
Stir the mix well making sure the glow powder is thoroughly mixed in. You can test to make sure you have enough glow powder by taking the mix into the dark. Add more glow pigment if necessary.
Allow the chalk to harden.
Remove the chalk from the mold.
Wait for dark and then use your glowing chalk. You may need a black light to enhance the glowing effect.
The chalk lit by a black light.
The chalk in the molds.
Crayola Glow Chalk can be a cool project to do at night. Most of the colors glow very brightly without a black light. The green and blue chalk does especially.
Be sure to follow the directions on the package, though. If the chalk isn't made exactly right, it may not work.
You will actually have to make the glow chalk. It isn't something that you can just open and use.
It will take about 20 minutes to make and another 30 minutes to an hour or more to dry. And the glow will only last for about 4 hours, so you will need to start making the chalk near the time you plan to use it.
There are bottles of chalk powder and you will add glow powder and activator powder to it. Then you will add a bit of water and shake it. I suggest adding the powders to all the bottles and then adding the water. Otherwise the funnel becomes damp and the powder starts sticking to it.
When the chalk is mixed, you will pour it into molds and let it dry. The instructions say that it will take 25 minutes for it to dry, but it will really take much longer than that. I found that the chalk that didn't have quite as much water dried quicker and worked better. You add 4 capfuls of water. Try not to use heaping capfuls so the chalk won't be overly damp.
The chalk just pops out of the molds when it is dry enough and it is ready to go.
What kind of glowing chalk will you make?
I am going to make glow chalk with a highlighter.
I think I'll try the glow paint for my chalk.
The glow powder sounds the best for me.
I will just go with the prepackaged Crayola Glow Chalk.
I am going to try them all to see which is really the best!
Crayola glow chalk on top, homemade on the bottom.
Trying to decide if you want to make your own glowing chalk or just grab a box of the Crayola Glow Chalk?
There are advantages and disadvantages with each type of chalk.
The Crayola glow chalk is typically brighter than homemade. But the glow doesn't last for more than one night. Whereas the homemade usually does.
And no black light is necessary with the Crayola chalk. Homemade glow chalk will more than likely need a black light for the glow to work.
But the Crayola chalk is very crumbly, especially if it hasn't hardened fully. I had a hard time drawing much because the chalk fell apart. And there isn't much time to let it harden before the glow is gone. The homemade glow chalk works just like regular chalk. It doesn't crumble when you try to write with it.
The expense of each varies. In some stores and at various times of the year, the Crayola Glow Chalk can be expensive. However, sometimes it can be found on sale at a good price. If you use the glow paint or powder, you will have to buy the materials. It will be about $5-10, but it won't take the whole container. So the glow paint or powder can be used again.
The effort required to make each kind is probably about equal. There is preparation involved in the Crayola kit as well as the homemade.
All in all, if you want the brightest effect, go with the Crayola. If you want a fun activity that will last for awhile, try the homemade glow chalk. Or give both types a glow and pick your favorite.
