I recently went to Ohio to celebrate my Mom's 88th Birthday. That's my sister, Amy, on the left with my Mom and I. We took her to the Morgan House, and had a wonderful lunch.
Isn't my Mom so cute? She bought this pretty dress to wear for her birthday lunch, and then before I left for home, she gave it to me!
Here's a picture of my chicken salad, with a side garden salad with a fresh strawberry dressing. We each had a pot of tea, and I chose Blackberry Sage, Mom had Apricot, and Amy had Wild Blueberry.
Look who showed up to meet us!! My friend, Michele, from The Nest at Finch Rest, surprised us!! I had texted Michele to tell her where we were going, hoping that she could come by. Michele and I have always wanted to meet in person. Of course, we already knew each other well from blogging, but meeting in real life was such a treat. My Mom and sister loved Michele right from the start, and she stayed and had a pot of tea with us. Michele was too kind and brought my Mom a gift that she had made, with the instructions to open later.
Here's Mom at home, opening her gift from Michele.
The gift was a darling pitcher (which my mom collects) with a pretty floral arrangement. Wasn't that sweet of Michele? I placed it on my Mom's nightstand.
My Mom always wants me to make her an angel food cake with her favorite Speedy Meringue Frosting.
Singing Happy Birthday to this sweet lady!
My Mom and I had a day to spend together because my sister had to work. I was down in the basement doing some laundry and this quilt and sham set was calling to me. I brought it up to see if mom would like to change out her quilt on her bed, and she did. It gave her a pretty summery feel to her room. The green quilt at the foot of the bed was found down in the basement, too. Yes, it was such fun shopping the house!
One evening we did the fun tiles that my son, Mike, and I had done this summer with the grands. My nephew, Shane, joined in for the fun project. He was so sweet and asked to create one together with his grandma. the bouquet of flowers behind Shane were a gift from him to his Gram.
Happy 88th Birthday to my beautiful Mom, sitting on her pretty patio. I was so happy to be able to share her birthday with her!
Now I am off to Breckinridge, CO, to vacation with my youngest son, Kevin, DIL, Kristen, and granddaughter, Harper.
What a beautiful lady your mom is! And such sweet pictures of you and your sister with her! So generous of her to give you the dress she wore, I know you will always treasure it! How wonderful that you got to be there to help her celebrate her birthday! I think the new quilt on the bed looks very summery and lovely :) Have fun in Colorado!
A delightful post, you're mother looks so happy. And she received some lovely gifts but probably the best one was spending time with her family. I hope you enjoy the rest of your break.
Your mom is definitely a beauty! Happy Birthday to her. I'm so glad you had a special visit with her and your sister.
What a bonus to meet Michele in person. Isn't blogging neat?
Happy belated birthday to your beautiful mother! She is one pretty lady, which accounts for her having you and Amy. They grow'em pretty in your family.
And, bless my soul, how wonderful to find Michele here! I was getting ready to put an all-points bulletin out on her. 😉 She is one of the most thoughtful gals in Blogdom for sure.
Thank you for sharing the family photos and activities. Shane is an extra-special young man!
Aw, Happy Birthday to your beautiful mom! What a wonderful gathering for her birthday! That pretty floral dress is going to look sweet on you, Kitty. The cake looks lovely and so does Michele's gift for your mom. Sounds like a really delightful celebration for everyone. Enjoy CO.
Oh my gosh I found my mother's doppelganger.! My mother just turned 91 and when I saw your mom's picture, I honestly thought it was my mom. God bless your mom and thanks for sharing!
Hi Kitty, Happy 88th Bithday to your beautiful mother. What a special birthday celebration. She is adorable and her birthday dress so pretty. How sweet she passed it on to you to enjoy as well. Love the photos of you, your mom and your beautiful sister. Your lunch looks so special and then to meet Michele too is a wonderful surprise gift. How sweet of Michele to gift your mom with that beautiful pitcher and flowers. Love it with the summery quilt you added from the basement. Isn't it amazing what we find when we shop the house. Glad you all had fun with your tile project too. So sweet of your nephew to bring flowers and join in.
Have a wonderful time in Co. with your kids and grand.
What a special time for your family Kitty! I hope your travels leave you refreshed and renewed from being with family!
Hello Kitty, Happy 88th Birthday to your sweet mom! It looks like you had a great time celebrating with her. It was really nice for you to meet your blog friend too. I hope you have a fun time visiting with your son also.
No wonder you are so pretty with a great figure dear Kitty! Your mom is gorgeous and who wouldn't want to have that figure still !

God bless her and keep her well.
Happy Birthday to your darling Mom! How blessed you are to still have her. Treasure each moment. What fun that you were able to meet Michele in person. I enjoyed my visit and loved seeing pics of your precious mom. By the way, my Mom was from Ohio too.
Happy birthday to your beautiful little mother. You are so fortunate to still have her.
How exciting to meet another blogging friend.
Happy belated 88th birthday to your Mom! I'm so glad she was able to celebrate her birthday with you and the lovely Michele! I would totally wear the pretty floral dress (is it purple?!?) and the yellow blouse. Enjoy your vacation in Colorado!
It was a pretty blue - the lighting is low in the Morgan House. That dress was absolutely gorgeous. Kitty and her sister and mom and so pretty and tiny and sweet. What a blessing to meet them!
What a special day/celebration for your Mom! I'm going to meet a blogger this month. She is coming to my home from CA & will stay for a few days! Enjoy your visit.
Happy Birthday to your mom! Tell her She looks terrific! How very sweet to meet Michele (her coming was, in itself, a gift!), and for her to bring your mother a gift. I told my sister and another friend about that tile craft - such a great idea. And your mom's room looks nice and summery. Enjoy the rest of your travels!
Happy Birthday, Miss Kitty's Mom!!!!!!!!!! You look like a million bucks and change!!!
So cool of Michele to make it to your Mom's birthday celebration, Kitty!
Happy Birthday to your sweet mom! She is more stylish than me :-) Enjoy your trip to Breckinridge!
Kitty, your mom is a beauty! I can imagine what fun you had celebrating with your family and your blogger friend, Michelle. Happy travels!
Happy Happy Belated Birthday to your Beautiful Mom, Kitty! She is adorable & SO fashionable. LOVE her (now YOUR) dress!!
I am so glad you were able to spend some time with both her & your sister. I miss my Mom...gone 13 yrs. now.
How fun to finally meet Michele, a dear friend to several of us and she made your mom a lovely bouquet.
I've pinned the meringue frosting as I will be making an angel food cake for a church BBQ pot luck. Does the cake need to be refrigerated Kitty?
Thank you for sharing the birthday celebrations and visit with your Mom. She looks fabulous. Happy Happy Birthday to her.
How nice that Michelle was able to join you. Great to see her.
The quilt and shams you found are beautiful. I know your mother was tickled to have a change.
What a wonderful and special day!Happy birthday to your mother,Kitty!Thanks for sharing such happiness!Hugs.
Happy Birthday to your sweet mom, and how pretty and cheerful is that yellow and white!? I love that you and Michele met, it looks like you guys had a blast!
Happy Birthday to your lovely mom. That is a pretty dress she is wearing. How very sweet for her to gift it to you. Nice that you met Michele and what a lovely thought she gifted your mom. Have the most wonderful holiday in Colorado. Enjoy!
Your mom is beautiful! Happy belated birthday to her! What wonderful family times you shared.
It is easy to see where to get your beauty from...your mother! Happy Birthday to her! How nice it was that you were able to be there for her big day...and getting to meet Michele as well! She lives very close to my family in Ohio and I will be heading there next week for a family reunion. It will be a quick trip no doubt but would love to meet Michele one day...how fun! Hugs to you, sweet friend!
Dear Kitty, How wonderful that you got to go to Ohio to be with your mom for her 88th birthday. I know she enjoyed every minute with you, and you felt the same way. It was a lovely "bonus" to be able to meet Michele in person. I'm looking forward to meeting her myself next month on a weekend trip to Ohio. Hope you have a great time in Colorado with your son and his family.
Kitty, Your Mom looks well and enjoying her 88th. It was nice to take her out for a special lunch. I love the cake. I remember as a kid we had angel food cake with 7 minute icing just about every Sunday. Thanks for sharing and have a great day. Sylvia D.
I rarely see a place I've been to before but I just saw one! I have been to the Morgan House! We had friends that lived in Worthington in the 80's and we went there. How special for your Mom. I remember there was a plant nursery place near there that was one of the most creative I've ever seen. They had giant baskets you put in your garden and fill with dirt for raised gardens. I am so thrilled you also met with Michele! How special! Have fun in Breckenridge!
Also thank you for sharing and linking!
What a lovely post and your mom is simply a beautiful lady (like you and your sister). What a wonderful birthday celebration you had. Your chicken salad meal looked amazing -- and what an added blessing to meet Michele!
Kitty, your mom is a cutie; just like you! I'm so glad that she got her angel food cake. :) Also, I love Michele and have hoped to meet her some day as well. She sent me a darling quilt topper last Christmas. She is such a sweet gal! I'm sure that you two hit it off wonderfully. You are both so giving. Thanks for sharing with SYC.
I am trying like mad to catch up to missed posts and to find this one from you was such a treat. Oh what a blessing and joy it was to meet you - finally - and your lovely sister and Momma. I don't think we had nearly enough time - do hope we can do this again one day soon.
And that invitation to tea at my house is definately a for-sure!
Happy Birthday to your Mother! She is so cute. I need to shop my house! Ha! It looks like your visit was extra special. So glad you got to meet Michele, too. Happy Tea Day!
OH what precious memories you made. Glad you took such great photos. You will cherish them.
Looks like a wonderful time was had by all, Kitty. Your mom is so glamorous!
Oh my -- this made me cry. Do you know how fortunate you are to have such a beautiful mom and family and that you all have such a lovely relationship? I can't imagine how fun that visit was and your mom is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! How sweet that she bought that dress and then gave it to you. It caught MY eye right away -- love it! Glad you had such a special time.
Your mom looks lovely, Kitty, and so elegant. I'm glad she had such a fab birthday.
Happy Birthday to your sweet Mom. She is so cute. Am so glad you all got to be together and enjoy the day!

The connection of the right speaker is quite tight and tricky. In my experience it can sometimes disconnect when reseating the logic board. All in all, the acoustic performance of this speaker system is lacklustre. It's a fact. I use Bongiovi DPS system wide audio post-processing software to slightly enhance that poor performance. It works well. https://bongiovidps.com There are other alternatives in this space, but I found this working best for me. Hope this helps.

How was it a mistake? Mine still runs fine after all these years.

The month of May has been designated "Better Speech & Hearing Month" by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. Why would this be of interest to dental professionals? Because teeth are vital for good speech, and missing teeth can make it very hard to speak properly.
Speech is all about sounds, and forming sounds correctly requires proper positioning of oral structures such as the lips, tongue and teeth. For example, there are some words that are almost impossible to pronounce correctly without touching your tongue to your teeth. In fact, one of the hardest words to say without teeth…is teeth!
Missing teeth can affect speech indirectly as well, by reducing self-confidence. People who are missing front teeth often develop the habit of talking behind their hand or mumbling to avoid revealing the gap in their smile. Not being able to speak clearly and confidently can affect not only your appearance, but also your job prospects and social life. So what can you do about missing teeth?
Dental implants are today's preferred tooth-replacement method. Implants are small titanium posts that are inserted in the jaw bone beneath your gums. They serve as "roots" to hold realistic-looking prosthetic (artificial) teeth in place. Implants can be used to replace one tooth, a group of teeth, or an entire row of teeth (upper or lower). Sometimes a dental implant can be placed the same day a failing tooth is removed so that you won't need a second surgical procedure.
The healthy natural teeth on either side of the gap can also be used to support one or more replacement teeth. This method, called bridgework, can be used to replace a single tooth or several teeth in a row. Another option is removable dentures, which do not stay in the mouth all the time.

Hi there all you good people! The question Is He Really Committed To You is the title of todays article. Theres a sentence in the beginning that goes like this "running for the hills" which remains me of the rock band Iron Maiden which has a song titled Run for the hills. I think rock stars, creative and adventurous people may have a little difficulty with comittments but on the other hand they may meet someone like minded to share their life with. I think its all about giving the relationship time to grow and then the rest will come naturally. If someone starts to talk about moving in together before getting to know each other enough it will scare the other away. Here in Sweden we have a term "särbo" which means having a distance relationship instead of living under the same roof. Everything has its pros and cons and if the decision how to live together and develop the relation is equally decided of you both it will be fine.
Take Care and hug someone today!
Commitment can be one of the scariest things that many men face in their lives. Everything is great as long as their girlfriends don't expect them to totally commit to them, and only them. There's just something about saying to someone that you'll be only with them from now on that strikes terror in the hearts of a lot of guys. It's because of this that it's difficult for many women to know whether or not their boyfriends are fully committed to them. They certainly don't want to bring up the subject because that can end everything and send the guys running for the hills. So the question becomes how can you tell if he's committed to you or not?
Looking at the way your guy reacts when you mention things such as weddings of friends or relatives will give you a big clue as to how he feels about permanent commitment. If he turns pale and sweaty, you've probably got a man on your hands that would rather throw himself off of a Hawaiian cliff rather than get married. He also most likely will avoid the subject like the plague. You'll notice lots of subject changing.
Take a cue from the reactions you get as to whether or not you should simply sit him down and have a long honest heart to heart talk about where the relationship is going. If you get the feeling that he may become less interested in even being in a relationship if the subject is nailed down, you'll probably want to wait before bringing it up. This may be a difficult thing to do if you're ready for a full blown commitment and he doesn't seem to be.
Another thing to notice is how he is around children, babies in particular. If he doesn't seem to want to be around them and will do all he can to avoid this event, chances are good that he's not close to committing to you, or, probably, anyone else. Babies tend to frighten men that don't want a commitment because they see babies as the final nail in the coffin of entrapment. You see, babies are a true responsibility and it means that you're tied together for the rest of your life.
While guys may be amenable to moving in together, if they feel that you'll take this to mean that they're committed to you, it might not happen. Moving in with someone means that the relationship is being taken to the next level, that level being one where a commitment is involved. If they feel as if you're going to expect more from them with a live in situation, they'll probably pass on it and insist that your relationship is more exciting when you each have your own places to call home.
Those are just the major ways of telling how your guy feels about commitment. On the other hand, if he loves talking about weddings, loves babies, and can't wait to move in with you, then you've got yourself a commitment in the making. And if not then you may need some more advice; if so continue to read below….

'A bizarre act of snobbery': Labor opposes Turnbull government's controversial citizenship changes
By Michael Koziol and Immigration reporter
Updated June 21, 2017 — 12.40am first published June 20, 2017 — 10.40am
Political Insider: Sign up for our newsletter
Labor has drawn a dramatic line in the sand on Australian citizenship, vowing to block the Turnbull government's proposed crackdown and resolutely denying any link between citizenship policy and national security.
In a move the government swiftly linked to old battles over boats and border protection, Labor MPs unanimously agreed to oppose the controversial citizenship bill, which frontbencher Tony Burke warned would be "a fundamental change in who we are as a country".
The opposition's main concerns, previously flagged by some left-wing MPs, included a tough English language test for aspiring citizens and a four-year wait for permanent residents before they could claim citizenship.
A fired-up Mr Burke said the university-level English requirement was "ludicrous, absurd and dumb", and would create "a new, permanent underclass of permanent residents" who would never be able to become Australian citizens.
Immigration Minister Peter Dutton Credit:Alex Ellinghausen
He said it was "a bizarre act of snobbery" on all Australians and "a fundamental shift in how Australian citizenship is defined", adding that a "very large number" of Australian-born citizens would never pass such a test.
"That is a big change in how this country operates, and it's a change that Labor cannot support," he said.
The fate of the citizenship package now rests with the independent Senate crossbench, where it is likely to find enough votes, given One Nation's sympathies and the "broad support" previously indicated by Nick Xenophon.
But the politics were quickly exploited by Immigration Minister Peter Dutton, who doubled down by insisting national security was at stake and accusing Labor leader Bill Shorten of being "mugged by the left of his party".
He said Labor's argument about university-level English requirements was "nonsense" and a red-herring floated by some left-wing MPs as "cover to get them to today's position".
And he linked the decision to the 15-year battle over asylum seeker policy, declaring Labor was "completely divided ... as they were on the border protection bill" to establish Operation Sovereign Borders.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull also hit back, accusing the opposition of "disrespecting" and devaluing Australian citizenship and claiming the compulsory English test was "doing people a favour".
Mr Shorten initially offered lukewarm support for the citizenship changes when they were announced in April, suggesting the English test and waiting period sounded "reasonable".
But several Labor MPs publicly voiced concerns about key elements of the proposal, and many on the party's right were also understood to be disturbed by the government's plans.
On Tuesday, Mr Shorten told his caucus colleagues the changes would "alienate people who are already permanently living here" and sent the message "that there are two sorts of Australians and it's only the ones who reach university-level English who the government really wants".
Mr Burke strongly rejected Mr Dutton's linking of the issue to national security, pointing out the changes only affected people already living permanently in Australia and were rooted not in security agency recommendations, but a review undertaken in 2015 by Liberal senator Concetta Fierrevanti-Wells.
He also hinted that, if elected, Labor would seek to roll back the changes if they were passed into law.
"This is absolutely where Labor's at," he said. "I'm not going to presume defeat but ... our position is very strong."
The position was welcomed by migrant groups, which have lobbied hard against the citizenship revamp, and will now turn their attention to crucial Senate crossbenchers.
To that end, the Refugee Council, in conjunction with the Federation of Ethnic Communities Councils of Australia, intends to publish public submissions to the citizenship consultation that the government has tried to keep secret.
Labor will refer the bill to a Senate inquiry and left the door open to accepting administrative changes the party deems reasonable, if the government was to propose them in a separate bill.

Only the most evil of people will let a person die on their watch. I was angry at my wife, hated her even but I would never actually let her kill herself especially in front of me. We had our differences and call me weak or pathetic, I was not going to abandon her. An obvious part in me thought she was doing this to play her games on me but I was not too sure. When you are about to lose everything what would you do? At times when we make mistakes and think there is no solution we make even bigger ones and this was one of them. I lay her down as she was gasping for air. She had to catch her breath.
I asked her as sat over her.
I wanted to cry but I was so angry to even know what reaction to make. She just stared at me like a fish out of water and started crying. I try checking her neck to see if she had any bruising from my ties and yes she did. The marks were so visible it's a wonder she didn't break her windpipe. Gimmick or not she could have hurt herself really badly. I had played a part in this whether I liked it or not. Had my marriage come to this where one of us had become suicidal?
She said turning her body away from me. I wanted to tell her that she could die I didn't care but first she must leave my baby behind but obviously it's not something I could say out loud. Taking your own life is cruel and selfish. People who have done this before will never know what pain they left behind. The ones left behind will never know whether to mourn you or be angry at you.
She said to me. I was not sure what to say but I had to say something.
I said trying to reassure her. For some reason all she said had flown right over my head. She had too many lies so I could not trust her to be genuine. I had to think of a way out. Another thing people must realize is this, if she dies by her own hand, any life policies she has become null and void as in they will not pay out! After all the premiums she had paid out and I had paid out, all insurance policies would never pay-out that's for certain. I was therefore not going to leave this to chance.
She said softly. I must say I was failing to read her. What was she going to do next? I called out to Zimasa. I was not going to leave the room. What if she finished the job? Zimasa came in. She is not stupid, she saw the tie and the chair. She immediately asked what happened. I ignored her question and told her to fetch her water to drink and to run water for me in a bath. She did not ask too many questions but I could see she was concerned.
I asked her or rather told her. She understood but said now she was too scared to sleep alone in a room considering this. She asked if she could sleep on the floor in the bedroom and watch over Asthandile with me. I told her it was fine. I will call her after the bath. I took off my wife's clothes as she stepped into the bath tub. I decided that I should join her in case she switches to death by drowning.
This was the first time my wife had shared a bath in years. She felt awkward and brand new. I could see all the marks my belt had left on her and much as I was angry at her, guilt swept over me. I had done this. Twice now I had laid my hands on her. I was now an abusive husband. The thought just killed me inside. I was a monster. I talked to her all this time whispering to make sure she knew I was still there. All she did was cry. We stayed in the water until it got cold. I dried her and myself, dressed her for bed even and took her to bed. She was cold. I am not sure if it was because of the bath or if it was in my head.
She asked me. I told she was in her room. I had forgotten about her. I told her she was in her room. At that moment Zimasa walked in. She asked Asthandile if she was fine. To her credit she said she was it was just a misunderstanding. In my head I was screaming what kind of misunderstanding can cost you your life.
She asked again this time to both of us. Asthandile said it was fine she could but turned around and asked me after she had already responded. I said it was fine meaning we would take turns to watch over her. She said she did not need to be watched over but I insisted. We have a very big bed. Eventually we agreed that Zimasa did not have to sleep on the floor. Besides I had work to do so at some point I was going to sneak out of bed and work so it was a win win.
With my wife in the middle, Zimasa on the other side cuddling her we settled in for bed. It was not awkward at all for some reason.
It was the police I was bribing!
Thanks Mikeesto, very interesting developments in Newlands.
First time commenting, I luv your work Mike, you are really are an inspiration to us, your work speaks volumes, thank you for educating us and for telling real stories. I salute you.
@anon – age aint nothing but a number cc and you dont have to broadcast his age. what is important here is 2 people loving each other and wanting to be with each other. let people look and stare if they want to – it is non of their business. just enjoy each other and stop worrying for nothing!
A2Q, Love I have an aunt who has been married for over 10 years and her husband is two years younger than her. Age doesn't have to play a role in your relationship, what matters is that he makes you happy. Oh, and please don't tell both sides of the family about your age dilemma, it's none of their business after all.
Motho eo ke wa hao o kgotsofatsa a le 26 jwalo!!! It matters not what the world says I'm sure your baby daddy was your age if not older, but you weren't happy with him, hence yal aren't together now. Go meet his family, introduce your family to him, introduce your kids to him n to his kid. Build your family ausi o kgaohane le batho, at the end of the day, you are the one who sleeps either with a smile or with a frown and no one sees. Choose happiness!!
Hmmmm Mxo, Astha will go to the police tomorrow to say you tried to kill her, she might be crying now but this woman is not safe and her friends are just as sick! She is on a mission! Trade very carefully here!!!!!!!!
Anonymous if you are comfortable with this sweet guy and his age, no one will even care about it. I feel you are ashamed of the age difference that is why you have been choosing to whom you introduce him to and to whom you don't. I have never heard of any parent who would refuse their child happiness just because the person she loves is a few years younger.
Sort yourself out by being honest with yourself and you will see, people are not even looking at you when you together, as you say because they don't know the age difference between you two, you do. You the one who is not certain here!!!!
@anonymous, my husband is 5 years younger than me and we very happy together regardless of the age gap and what people think.
Drama never ends @ this household maan!
Q&A @Ano Nyan nyan whats your problem cc?..y shud u tell about the age diff?
I dont think that matters here…what is important is that u click & u r happy with this man…& he wants a future with u. Be true 2 yourself & im wishing u well!
When it rains it pours hey Mxo?Q n A Sis wam I'm happy dat u say he loves u n u know it,age is just a number mna I say if he makes u happy n u make him happy dat all dat matters nothing more.
My fiance is about 2m tall and I m 1.6m. I used to b ashamed of going out with him because I look like a kid with her father when walking next to him. He is the sweetest man I have ever met, very honest, understanding and all. People used to stare n whisper, then I got tired of being concerned with people n focus on me and my own needs. Now we r getting married in December n hoping to be very very happy. Sisi it's all up to you..
The main problem with Mxo and Astha will be trust from now on even if Mxo were to decide otherwise and kuzoba nzima ukuphila ngokujeqeza.
Anon, your age difference is not something to worry about, the gap is not big at all. My husband too is 2 years my junior fortunately for me he is the aging type and me on the other hand I have my grans genes of being youthful, I look way younger than him.
Do not feel awkward especially because he is aware of the difference and is still prepared to travel his journey with you, he loves you cc, take your prize and go home. I suggest you make sure you look after yourself like making sure that you do not gain weight and dress nicely. Lastly Nelson Mandela once said umuntu wesifazane is never older than a man in our culture. Nami that made me feel good about our age difference.
Anonymous,as from when that if you introduce a prrson you introduce his age as well? thinking about it now. this is all in yr mind 3yrs! no one van tell the difference except you. please sisi enjoy your man. what is important is that he loves you. pls before you push him away bcoz of yr insecurities. i dont know may be yr body has added some few kilos during yr pregnancy and may be that it makes you older,if so work on that babe bcoz 3yrs is absolute nothing. remember you owe no one the age of yrself or yr man. b comfirtable at yr own skin and people will respect your choices. good lucky.
What Mxo is going through is what send men to grave before their time.
You have so much s***t at home and yet must keep a straight professional face at work/family do's/etc… This is where you appreciate white people for just walking away, explain to kids whats up, heart heals ubegrand, in most cases end up with a descent friendly relationship thereafter with minimal animosity.
But sometime our mindset of that the community is our family is our downfall. keep the whole world happy except yourself.
anon: I have 2 male friends one is 27 and his wife is 41 and they have been together for 4yrs and they seem vrry happy to me, another one is 33 and the wife is 46 his family tried everything to separate them but after 7 yrs they are still happily married so have no fear of what the world will say just be happy and your family will accept it…..
Bhut Mike thank you for sharing your talent with us, I have got mad love for you, keep up the wonderful work it is not only appreciated but a total blessing to us.
Anonymous please attend to your insecurities, everything you are thinking or feeling about this age gap is all in your head sisi, nurture what you have it doesn't come cheap, my boyfriend and I look like peers but he is 6 years younger than me, he didn't even tell me this fact when we started dating as he thought I wouldn't give him a chance, needless to say its been four years and he has proven to me that age really aint nothing but a number.
Eish Asthandile o rata attention. Hahahahaha o tshwere le Ben 10 ngwana,Sister's age ain't nothing but a number. As long as you guys are happy together ska stressa ka batho ba bang, ba tla ba strong.
Ano,let me tell u abt me myself nd in,my man is 5yrs yonger than me,my daughter is 18,his son is 12,we are inlove so what?re na le 4years re dula mmogo,both our families dznt knw our age dff,cos we ddnt c the nid to tell them,so wena u jst worried ka no3,phela bophelo bagago sesi o kgaogane ne MOTHO,good luck.
This house yone mathata a teng a mantsi maan!
If it is not 1thing is the other,yoh poor Mxo! Thanks Mikey!
Mike – you are amazing. I absolutely love all the stories… I'm a faithful and dedicated follower….
@Anonymous – I've been with a guy who's 10 years younger than me. Crazy i know. I never thought i would ever find myself in this kind of relationship but i am. I always tell him he has an old soul. We are happy. I've met his family (mother, father and siblings). They don't know my age, as i don't look it. I look much younger than i really am. We've been together for over a year.
When we first hooked up, it was just a game, having fun…he was just meant to my ben10 and I was meant to be his cougar! A year later we are going strong….somewhere along the line, we lost the playing plot. We connect, we are strong together and we constantly drive each other to always be the best. We just work… we balance.
I go through emotions everyday and I'm consistently conflicted about being with him because of the huge age difference. I know people will respond negatively and judge me…but hey, he makes me happy… and i too make him happy. At this point, I don't know what will happen in the near future and that's ok… But for now as it stands, we are what we are.
So all I can tell you is, do what makes sense to you and if the two of you are in alignment with where you are both going. That's all that matters…. being happy is what we all seek and search for. Unfortunately, controlling where that happiness comes from is challenging… good luck!
@ Anonymous if he makes you happy as you say then I dont see why your mom wouldn't be happy for you after all bomme ba rena ba thakgalela fela gere thabile.

The BMA is to tackle ministers over concerns that NHS reforms are creating conditions in which international companies—chiefly from the United States—can intervene and run areas of health care.
A conference this week to debate the NHS Improvement Plan, published in June, heard fears that the new "payment by results" financial system, whereby hospitals are paid per patient according to a fixed tariff, could see units close if they failed to compete on price with alternative provision in the private sector.
Many delegates said they were doubtful whether the changes were in the interest of patient choice, as the government claimed.


Reconstructed by well known local craftsmen Sasha & Son hotel was in the past Jewish merchant's house which was built in 16th century next to synagogue. Homely atmosphere and personal hospitality awaits you in this charming small hotel with best private hotel facilities in Bukhara. The large central courtyard with seating areas is a nice place to meet people.Really charming place, located at the entrance of the old City and with the feel of 1001 nights Oriental tales.This is a great little hotel in a perfect location just a few minutes' walk from the very heart of Bukhara.
To get to your room, you need to pass through the lobby into the inner courtyard area. Pretty, shuttered windows look out on the courtyard and comfortable tables with Uzbek pottery and plants make you feel comfortable. There are corridors that lead to other courtyards with other rooms.You will be just a block away from the Lyabi Hovuz square, where you can have meals at the restaurant overlooking the pond and plenty of tourist shopping. Walk two or three blocks further down and you'll be in the heart of the ancient city. Since the hotel is near the city center it is easy to get transportation from here to any major place at the city.
There are not a lot of rooms, so the hotel doesn't feel overcrowded, even when it is full.Each room is decorated individually in the traditional Uzbek style, with colorful bedspreads and wooden cut-outs and plaster molding on the walls. The ceilings are authentic old wood, and someone has spent a great deal of time painting the cut-outs on the walls in national Uzbek pottery style.
This hotel has outstanding de'cor and you'll find numerous plaster works with colorful paintings all over the walls. Room walls are painted in white with national color ornaments.The traditional decor is very atmospheric, as is the padlock to get into the room.Central Asian wooden ceiling and wooden furniture, Bukhara carpetson the floor and chairs, etc.Nice beds, although might be hard, this depends on your preference.Pleasant accommodations and friendly staff ensure you will have a comfortable stay with a plenty to see and do.
The rooms are located around several charming irregular courtyards withshort flights of stairs or corridors in between. Sometimes you need to ascendan outside spiral staircase to reach your room.However if you have a mobility problem, you need to check that you get a room you can access.Nice bathroom, although the water is slow to drain from the bathtub.No shower curtain, so you run a risk of getting the whole bathroom floor wetwhen showering. Bathroom floor gets slippery when wet.
The rooms are fine, clean,quaint and comfortable with nice beds and quality bedding material. There are divans on the beds that look so much of a Mughal style. The furniture is also adequate.One piece of advice: if it is hot, leave your curtains and shutters closed. This will help keep the room from heating up while you are away during the day. There is an air conditioner, for which you will be very grateful during the warmer months.
There is a small yard surrounded by grapevines where you can have breakfasts or a cup of green tee after an exciting day of sightseeing. The elaborate plasterwork everywhere has been – apparently recently – painted in a variety of pastel shades giving the impression that the walls are made out of icing sugar. Breakfast is also quite nice with the hotel offering a choice of eggs or Russian pancakes as well as a selection of cereal, cold cuts, vegetables, cheese, bread, jam, and instant coffee and tea bags. A waiter will give you the choice between two hot breakfast entrees, usually one egg-based and one sweet (pancakes or crepes). If you ask, the front desk will deliver a delicious hot pot of tea to your room for less than a dollar at any time of the day.
Wi Fi is available for purchase, but is not compatible with iphones/ipads/ipods, you need to buy a ticket to access it, and it is difficult to manage for makingit work on mobiles.The hotels WiFi does not work with Apple devices; however, there are plenty of internet cafes nearby so this isn't a huge issue. Note: if you work with the owner, they can help you configure your device to work with their system; however, it probably isn't worth it as the connection is slow and this takes a bit of time.

Q: How to calculate slope of Pandas dataframe column based on previous N rows I have the following example dataframe:
import pandas as pd

d = {'col1': [2, 5, 6, 5, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 7, 5]}

df = pd.DataFrame(data=d)
print(df)

Output:
       col1
0      2
1      5
2      6
3      5
4      4
5      6
6      7
7      8
8      9
9      7
10     5

I need to calculate the slope of the previous N rows from col1 and save the slope value in a separate column (call it slope). The desired output may look like the following: (Given slope values below are just random numbers for the sake of example.)
       col1  slope
0      2
1      5
2      6
3      5
4      4     3
5      6     4
6      7     5
7      8     2
8      9     4
9      7     6
10     5     5

So, in the row with the index number 4, the slope is 3 and it is the slope of [2, 5, 6, 5, 4].
Is there an elegant way of doing it without using for loop?

ADDENDUM:
Based on the accepted answer below, in case you get the following error:
TypeError: ufunc 'true_divide' not supported for the input types, and the inputs could not be safely coerced to any supported types according to the casting rule ''safe''

It may be so that the index of your dataframe is maybe not numerical. The following modification makes it work then:
df['slope'] = df['col1'].rolling(5).apply(lambda s: linregress(range(5), s.values)[0])

A: You can use rolling+apply and scipy.stats.linregress:
from scipy.stats import linregress

df['slope'] = df['col1'].rolling(5).apply(lambda s: linregress(s.reset_index())[0])

print(df)

output:
    col1  slope
0      2    NaN
1      5    NaN
2      6    NaN
3      5    NaN
4      4    0.4
5      6    0.0
6      7    0.3
7      8    0.9
8      9    1.2
9      7    0.4
10     5   -0.5

A: Let us do with numpy
def slope_numpy(x,y):
    fit = np.polyfit(x, y, 1)
    return np.poly1d(fit)[0]
df.col1.rolling(5).apply(lambda x : slope_numpy(range(5),x))
0     NaN
1     NaN
2     NaN
3     NaN
4     3.6
5     5.2
6     5.0
7     4.2
8     4.4
9     6.6
10    8.2
Name: col1, dtype: float64

Drake Hints At Potential Las Vegas Residency
posted by Rubi - Jan 12, 2019
It's almost become a norm for artists to have residencies in Las Vegas right?
Well, on Thursday night, while Drake was performing at the XS Club he hinted at a potential Vegas residency.
"Vegas! When I came back, I thought it'd be back at T-Mobile Arena or some (stuff)," he said during a 30-minute set at XS Nightclub. "But I'll be back here at XS all year. You'll have a lot of chances to see me."
Nearly 1,600 people were in the club and another 3,200 fans were at the Encore pool area when he made the announcement.
The Las Vegas Review-Journal says Drake is expected to perform 12 shows at XS over the next two years.

Candy floss machines, everlasting ice cream clouds and rope ladders instead of stairs are just some of the ideas that children from a Blacon school would like to see in their ideal Chester home.
The youngsters, from St Theresa's Catholic Primary School, will see their creations come to life in a 3D display for Chester: A Life Story, the city's latest visitor attraction, which opens on Saturday, March 30.
The Year 3 and 5 pupils came up with their ideas for Big Heritage, the community interest company behind Chester: A Life Story, opening at St Michael's Church on the corner of Bridge Street and Pepper Street.
Year 3 teacher Nicola Sowerby said: "The children were asked to imagine that a house-shaped hole had appeared in one of Chester's city streets and that they could design what sort of home should go in its place.
Headteacher Nicola Kirkman added: "This project has given the children the chance to think and work creatively in partnership with pupils in other year groups at school.
"They were particularly enthusiastic about the opportunity to work without limitations in their creativity and were so excited to know that their designs would be brought to life in 3D images.
Rebecca Mason, of Big Heritage said: "Chester: A Life Story is as much about Chester today as about the history of the people in the city and it is great to get these fabulous ideas from the children about the dream home they would like to live in.

From farming in rural Ethiopia to graduating from UC Berkeley
Growing up in rural Ethiopia, Lelisa Bera knew that getting an education wasn't a given. It was a privilege that many parents couldn't afford to give their children. But now he will graduate on Wednesday, May 22, with a bachelor's degree in psychology. And without a teacher who gently encouraged him to think bigger, he might never have made it to where he is today.

For the period encompassing the London Design Festival and Frieze Art Fair, Gallery Libby Sellers is pleased to present the solo exhibition of Peter Marigold's Wooden Tables series.
Marigold applied the same process – building up a form from individually cast wax impressions – in order to create one large mould for the Wooden Tables. Once the mould was complete, each of the tables in the series was then cast from this one mould. By adjusting the materials used or the individual shapes of each piece while the liquefied material (mainly Jesmonite) was on the mould, he has subsequently produced this series of dynamic and unique works from the original static mould.
Born in London in 1974, Marigold first studied sculpture at Central St Martins before enrolling in Design Products under Ron Arad at the Royal College of Art in 2004. Marigold's fine art training, combined with a series of jobs in scenographic design and production – props, models, costumes and sets for theatre and exhibitions – has led to a pluralistic and resourceful approach to furniture design. Designing and making beautiful objects simply and sincerely – often through improvisation and the logic of geometry – is a major impetus for Marigold. Springing from a desire to elucidate and amplify the rationality found in the natural world, much of his work has been an exploration of the phenomena of nature's form.

Truckers play a big role in ensuring economies run smoothly. Sometimes it is hard for people to notice their role, yet they are responsible for transporting about 80% of everything in our homes and offices. Being a truck driver often requires a lot of effort and sacrifices that most people may not understand. Most drivers consider driving trucks as more of a lifestyle than a job.
Common Characteristics of Trucking As A Career
To better understand the world of trucking one has to take a deeper look into how drivers relate to one another, their families and employers. By understanding how truckers socialize and their experiences while on the road, an individual who is looking to invest in the industry or become a driver themselves can make an informed decision.
Here are several things to note for anyone interested in the industry:
Truckers have a unique culture that includes their own language (i.e. the term "bear" refers to a police officer).
Truck drivers rarely see their families because they spend so much time on transporting loads.
The job turnover rate is very high; it is estimated 8 out of 10 drivers do not last in the job for a year.
Drivers can have a "driving buddy" to ease the loneliness of long-haul driving and as an assistant driver.
The Lifestyle of a Truck Driver
Because truck drivers spend days, or even months, away from home, many in the field find these conditions harsh. On the other hand, others enjoy traveling and seeing the beauty of different parts of the country.
Depending on the delivery and pick up locations, drivers spend a lot of their time at rest stops and motels. Some prefer to sleep in their trucks to cut down on expenses. Truckers get opportunities to travel and get paid well, although it can be challenging for those with families and small children.
Truck driving is a lucrative career for those in need of reliable money, but it is not a perfect industry. The job of driving trucks can be harmful to a driver's health due to long working hours and bad eating habits. Despite the drawbacks, however, drivers do earn the respect of their employers for the sacrifices it takes to meet the company's deadlines.
